Definitely polar bear. They look so cuddly but I would be terrified to even see one from afar.

Real programmers use a magnetized needle and a steady hand.

Nobody said anything about third-party articles. The page linked above is supposed to be a reference, not a tutorial. But the official Nix website also has actual tutorials.

Note that MAUI doesn’t officially support Linux.

But there are third party alternatives like Uno Platform or Avalonia UI that do.

Very excited about this! The new character looks really cool too!

The Steam page also has some gameplay screenshots. It looks surprisingly similar to the first game, but as long as there’s enough new stuff I don’t mind.

Lowest car ownership in Western Europe? Do you have data to support that?

According to this Wikipedia article Switzerland has more cars per capita than the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, and Ireland.

I haven’t used Python since around the time when type hints first became a thing so I might be completely wrong here, but isn’t this because Python just generally ignores type hints? If you ran a static type checker like mypy over this it would complain right?

Also, if you actually did anything with the list that you couldn’t do with a bool (e.g. len(value)), it would throw an error too because Python is actually pretty strict about types, just only at runtime. That’s why it’s usually considered to be strongly typed, although people don’t seem to agree what exactly that’s supposed to mean.

Isn’t Python already strongly typed?

When WhatsApp got popular in Europe it wasn’t owned by Facebook yet, they only acquired it after it was already the ‘default’ messaging app.

Obligatory individuals don’t evolve, populations do.

I know it’s just a silly meme but misconceptions about evolution unfortunately seem to be pretty widespread.

How about actually tackling inequality instead of trying to hide it?

Don’t be afraid to use a car if you have to. Reducing car dependency is great, but if you live in a place without proper infrastructure it can be almost impossible to completely ditch your car. In that case I’d suggest becoming active in local politics to try to improve the situation.

I’ve found some and it sucks if the one game that doesn’t work well is one you play a lot. For me it’s Trackmania. It works some of the time but often breaks. It seems like the issue isn’t with the game itself but with Ubisoft Connect, which is pretty shit even on Windows. Very annoying.

You’re trivialising a serious issue. If you had actually read the article you’d know that they’re definitely not just like any other public school and they’re not just “teaching them Chinese and about society”. It’s an obvious and disgusting attempt to eradicate Tibetan culture.

Definitely Outer Wilds for me too and it isn’t close. Such a great experience.

Astrology is fun if you don’t take it seriously.

I agree, but the problem is that a lot of people do take it seriously. It’s perfectly fine to enjoy these things if you just think they’re fun. But actually believing in things that are demonstrably wrong is definitely a huge red flag for me. I’ve also become extremely negative towards astrology in particular because I’ve had to deal with family who used to take it at face value and also because I love astronomy, which, to me, gets tainted by this pseudoscience nonsense that sort of imitates it.

I rarely check people’s bookshelves but my experience has also been that people either don’t even know what it’s really about or they absolutely love it.

But I guess it’s possible that some people buy it after reading LotR expecting more of the same and then give up after reading the first few pages of the Ainulindalë.

For a few seconds I was extremely confused why one would need a tool like this for the game Celeste.

I thought the same thing but it sucks because I really want a new F-Zero but I can’t see myself playing this a lot. It’s fun for a little bit but just too chaotic for me.

The reason why American cities are low density is because they were built for cars. Or destroyed for cars. But American car-dependent suburbia is not financially sustainable. Car infrastructure isn’t just absolutely miserable, it’s also extremely inefficient in terms of both cost and space. Self-driving cars or electric cars won’t solve this. America needs to learn how to build cities properly again.
