Yew got that right

People need to internalize this. Generally speaking, nobody who has a choice wants our old crap.

WHY ARE YOU SAD? THIS IS WHAT MOMMY MIC WANTS! YOU DON'T WANT LOCKMART TO STARVE, DO YOU?

Why won't you think of the shareholders?

I fully expect that to make a comeback in the aftermath of the climate wars.

too real

I like that. The weird mutants from the sewers are the heroes (oh wait, that's TMNT) nuclear cooling lagoon are heroes (oh wait, that's the Toxic Avenger). Fergeddabout subverting expectations, just throw in more anime tiddies.

The same style, but instead of cute ribbons of light and stars it's sprays of blood and flying skulls. And the music isn't upbeat, it's screaming death metal.

While the stats vary depending on who's measuring, the story is consistent: web publishers, who provided the content that trained these AI models, face dramatically diminishing visitors, which means lower advertising and subscription revenues, even amid overall growth in search impressions.

I understand your reasoning, but I don't think that's how the term is generally interpreted.

Here's how it's defined on Wiktionary:

A miss which was nearly a hit or collision.

Wear cargo pants or a jacket, solipsist.

AND MY AXE!

Your example didn't mention the use of the function keyword. Instead, it seemed to be questioning the placement of the return type - placing it after the argument list seems pretty common in newer languages.

Rust and TypeScript use the return-type-at-the-end convention as well.

In modern BASIC variants, DIM has become a backronym: “declare in memory”.

TIL. I always thought it was a backronym for declare in (yo) momma.

only the linter gives a hoot - the interpreter will happily leave that footgun for later

This is gold. And yeah, it took decades before someone told me the secret.

As a parent, I was surprised at the amount of stuff kids need to be taught. Stuff that I assumed was obvious isn't - it's learned behaviour. And you don't realize that it's learned until you see your kid struggling with some trivial task.

The Photos editor menu is incredibly unintuitive. I hope this update makes it a little easier to use.

I'm glad I didn't have that experience. I think I had cases on those phones, so that might have been what made the difference.

Back when removable batteries were a thing, the couple of phones I had both were removable without screws.

I have no strong feelings about what a removable battery should look like, but I love the idea of increasing a phone's longevity easily.
