Graphql is for fetching exactly the data your app needs at that point, suspense is for fetching only the code the app needs at that point.

The example of "Paradise loft" written as "Paradife loft" reminds me of the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten's logo looks like Aftenpoften

Do it, I have shown these to various school classes. They have been popular everywhere, from primary school to universities!

One of the biggest electronic stores in Norway knew their web page couldn't handle the load, so they had some kind of queue system im front. When I checked, my spot in line was estimated to have to wait more than an hour. They got a lot of flak for it, all other web shops worked fine.

I tried rainbow/semantic coloring for a while, but felt it messed with my pattern recognizion. And when everything is highlighted, nothing is, it felt loud.

elm/browser was recently updated. If you compile in dev modus it gives you a small button to press in the webapp, that opens a new window where actions and state can be replayed.

Elm has some of this built in. Not a debugger per se (you cannot add breakpoints and step through the code), but since everything is pure and there is only a single state, you have a single source of truth and a function from that truth to your view. One can replay the different transitions, and see the whole state of the program at those times.

Switched last week. Fed up by how Google gives a 90s-looking wap site when using Firefox for Android. I added an extension that switches my user agent just for google.com to get around it, but instead most results are then AMP links. And opening AMP-links hosted on google in firefox gives you a page that you cannot scroll.

Almost wonder if they're doing it on purpose.

Haven't used ddg long enough to comment on the quality. But at least google for Norwegian results have declined lately. Many results are just machine-translated spam on autogenerated blogs.

For instance, last week I googled "pes anserinus bursitt", and one of the top results is http:// bumyjaki .tk/arrestere/pes-anserinus-bursitt.html (don't open it). The preview is broken Norwegian, and clicking it I get popovers saying I've won stuff, and firefox asks if I want to enable vibration, and I'm instantly redirected to more spam. How the f is that so high, google? And it's prominent on lots of stuff I search.

Alberto Contador initially won Tour de France in 2010, but tested positive for traces of clenbuterol. He blamed it on meat he had been eating. It has become a meme in cycling circles.

What are they astroturfing? TdF vs Giro? Contaminated beefs? Caliper vs disk brakes?

Edit: or are you talking about something else than r/peloton?

Meh, I upvoted because I thought it was interesting reading about the differences and how MS has changed over the years.

Huh, my company is basically throwing ergonomic things at us if we ask for them (chairs, standing desks, keyboards etc), as they know the cost is minuscule compared to us even being only a single day away from work.

I use a roller mouse, a bar below the keyboard. Feel it's even better than an ergonomic-but-standard-mouse, as I don't have to move my arm to the side. Fixed my stupid elbow.

I'm thinking the same, this willbe used somehow to push more users into Google's walled garden.

Amp is like ten times as slow for me.. Firefox on android, a bug in amp makes the pages not scrollable. Have to press the tiny little icon in the top right, then again press the url, and then wait for the page to load an additional time.

At least Firefox gives proper suggestions from history when typing in addresses. Chrome is way off, as if it wants you to search in google instead.

Do interviewers really want an honest answer, or just enough to label you? And if you don't want canned responses, maybe not ask such open-ended and really a bit weird questions. Be more specific. I have no idea what the interviewer want out of a question like that. Small-talk or just get warmed up with me saying my name and where I'm from? Or my life-story so far? What if I don't define myself as what I do for a living, would it be weird omitting the fact that I'm a programmer and instead tell about my hobbies? Should I divulge information about myself that you aren't allowed to ask (discrimination etc), but that I feel is me?

Things don't happen in a vacuum, don't be so dismissive. There would probably have been put something in place to stop a $20 sim from doing these things in the first place.

Ouch. I have a ü in my last name from family in a different country way back somewhere. It doesn't crash systems as much as an apostrophe would, but it's very good at showing encoding issues between systems..

It's not as big an issue as it used to be, at least. Before I've had online transactions failing because of a mismatch between my name (with ü), and the name on the card (with u). The systems seem more forgiving now, having handled that case or something. I also remember being a bit scared traveling to Japan many years ago, as we were told it was SOoo important that the names and everything matched to gain entry. And then the name on my ticket was completely mangled. But no one cared.

Here's a SO post about someone with the last name Null: https://stackoverflow.com/q/4456438/923847

Your clients hire you and tell you to find their sql performance problems. How is that not them telling you what to do, and you doing it?

This past summer, amid 100-degree-plus heat, the Louvre undertook a renovation of the Mona Lisa’s gallery

From the article.

Yeah, I meant that by some thought one should have realized the answer was unexpected/off, but as the article states one does not really think about that when using a calculator.

The parantheses are just how it looks on that model, I tried inputing the exact same sequence on multiple calculators.

Reminds me of when I was TA for calculus at university. Lots of people got one answer wrong, having done the calculations correctly. Found out roughly half of the calculators gave the answer in a different than expected quadrant.

* It is fast. In release builds you can even try to replace the interfaces with the actual classes implementing it for a straight method call.*

Isn't the interface mainly for the compiler, and in runtime it's just a straight method call anyways?

OT, but some headings with all capitalized words are impossible to decipher. Where does one put the groupings here? Looks like a gibberish sentence to my (non-native) eyes.

Hard to get used to inflation of 1000%.

I think that's a common problem when discussing things with one's parents. "You make twice the amount I did at that age!", "Yes, but tuition is twenty times as high!".

It's just a fake "as an X" to try to make the arguments have more weight.

Never heard of Bandcamp. Been paying for Spotify for a decade, though (since oct. 5 2009).

Edit: Cannot find a single mention about Bandcamp on any news site in my country (Norway), and virtually no results in some more countries I checked. Do they have a European presence at all?

Buses, trams etc. would also have the doors on the wrong side, so cannot just switch side one day without any planning.

Never heard of this, but my last name (and my dad's) is Svensson. Will tell him this next time I'm in the car with him on the highway and he's driving in the left lane, and see if he gets the reference.

an early version of the new browser for Android that is built on top of Firefox’s own mobile browser engine, GeckoView.

Isn't the existing Android browser built on top of Firefox's own mobile browser engine? Or am I reading this wrong?
