I've been sick so my personal/appearance care has been kind of near 0 and I've got like a 50% beard on the rest of my face now - every time it gets to this point I am like "should I try a full on beard, I'm halfway there".
@JeanPDeliet Well, I've had my same facial hair for 30+ years so it's kind of part of me... I did try none during the pandemic but it was weird and I didn't like it. I've never wanted a full beard, my dad had one... but... I am slightly curious
You know in Thor: Ragnarok when they show the wormhole and stuff pouring into it from across the universe -- I bet there's a lot of my left socks, earbuds and TV remotes in there.
Not sure how unpopular this opinion is but: Using an 's for possessive is the more intuitive thing with "it's" despite being "wrong" and I think we should just all rebel and do that.
@bkardell "It" is a bit puzzling indeed because the possessive pronoun looks so much similar to personal pronoun+'s, but there's no reason to use the 's genitive on this pronoun and not the other (he/she/they or even I/you). Admitting grammar mistakes as language evolution makes sense when it corrects a bug in the grammar or simplifies it, not so much if it creates an exception + a possible confusion with another meaning.
Also, it seems that only native english speakers make this mistake. Why?
I did a whole bunch of articles about how web speech works, and the underlying speech subsystem - it's tricky because most text doesn't have any real semantic 'hints' and speech subsystems vary, so you can get "4x4=16" and "I drove a 4x4" sounding like 4-X-4 or "4 times 4" or "4 by 4" - kind of like with different human readers, maybe.
Anywho.. Listening to a read aloud of this article about client hints and the Sec-CH-UA header and giggling as it keeps pronouncing this as what sounds like the "sexy h-you-ah header".
@bkardell the different number of subtests is usually because some tests produce subtests depending on what is supported. I think idlharness does this for example. It's not great when trying to compare results, like in Interop.
I am not a designer (I think I'm actively bad at design even) so I don't mean to bash anyone, but as a user I find interfaces like this absolutely terrible:
It's so damned busy and distracting, where does the article stop/start? The article itself literally seems to stop at "Counting down from #100, here are the best sitcoms of all time." which is the clickbaity shit that gets you there in the first place. Where? Where is it? Can you find it? I can't.
@seaotta OMG, so they say here they are, but the here is way above and not at all obvious. At a minimum, you'd like to see that carousel below the thing that says "here they are.."
@bkardell My terminal application (Warp) kinda does that: I type git push, it says “couldn’t do that, did you mean {what you wrote up above} instead” and I hit the right arrow key and hit return and it does it. It’s so convenient I literally do a bare git push already knowing it will fail but I’ll get what I wanted from the software so it’s fine.
