“Prove you’re not a machine by training this machine to pass this exact test.”

There is nothing stupid about this unless you believe that the people behind it had no plan to change out the challenges over time.

Why create the function _dcl()?

Must be time for a new Linux audio system. The pipewire-pulseaudio-ALSA stack of compatibility layers is old hat already.

I remember looking into the situation with non-destructive editing about… 20 years ago. I wonder how long it’s been a desired feature!

If you’re hosting it, prepare to get sued out of existence!

And here I was typing out iso-8859-1 like a scrub to make sure I wasn’t misremembering the encoding when doing the analogous thing in python…

Their employees have failed Unicode college >:(

They don’t have anything to do with alphabets in theory of computation…

So… UTF-8 interpreted as ISO-8859-1? You have failed Unicode college >:(

I don’t think a good response to " breaks " is to say "yes, because was designed to work with and hasn’t been updated to use ". Part of the task of replacing something old - onerous though it be - is to provide a smooth route to support old programs and functionality.

Wayland deliberately broke everything, but then was rolled out prematurely at least on some distros, before giving the vast X ecosystem enough time (which was guaranteed to be a long time, due to how large and entrenched it was) to update. Besides which, the “OUTDATED” post has an awful lot of things you acknowledge are still issues!

Do you mean you want separate sets of workspaces on each monitor and to be able to switch through them independently? Just having “workspace 1 on monitor 1 and workspace 2 on monitor 2” sounds no different than the default behaviour with no extra workspaces.

I would write it “Select all the images of the type which is warmer than the other type of image”

It’s the “of one type” that gets me - to me that says I should be examining either the outdoor or the indoor pictures, not comparing between those two types of picture. So I should somehow pick the warmest outdoor or warmest indoor pictures.

OCaml allows you to specify return types, but doesn’t force you to.

Yeah but it doesn’t cross function boundaries so it’s more limited.

Yeah most likely.

The joke is that almost everyone calls them vegetables because the botanic categorisation of parts of plants is niche jargon that is not useful in everyday life, whereas the culinary categorisation is useful, and so your shopping list correcting you is worse than unnecessary.

Thinkpad X13 with a Ryzen 6850U.

I actually need to send it in for repair - I think the GPU is fucked as I get irregular crashes where the screen(s) all go black, audio keeps playing but input is broken, and other weird things, like sometimes an external monitor flickers and shifts so the left third is actually shown on the right hand side of the screen…

Rules around preventing a hostile work environment don’t place an obligation on anyone to prevent it at all costs. It means that if an employee or - more relevantly here - a customer - is being hostile, then the workplace needs to make sure the employee or customer stops. But if you work in a call centre cold calling people, your company isn’t going to get fined if you get an earful of abuse. (They might get fined for cold-calling depending on specifics :P) Same here.

I get 8-10 on my AMD laptop, but yeah it’s nothing like Apple unfortunately.
