Dude... delete that. That’s an important spoiler for a show that just came out a week ago. Yeah, he's in White Lotus S3. That’s all you needed to say.

It's also not "CSS only".
It's everything! It's waterproof! -- No it isn't. -- It's water resistant! -- No it isn't. -- It's... water absorbent! Absorb water today with Simpson's Individual Flood Preventers!
The Great Lakes span across hundreds of miles, but the deepest point is less than a quarter mile, and most of it is much shallower than that. I.e., it's a super thin film over that big surface area.
This looks great. I can't wait to dive in. Thank you very much for sharing. Formatting nitpick for the site: when viewed on mobile, the text width is set to screen width minus 1 margin, but the page is fixed at text…
Order of magnitude usually refers to a 10x difference. Two orders of magnitude would be 100x difference. (Sometimes the phrase is casually used to just mean "a lot", but here I think they mean 10x).
When I saw the title, I thought this was going to be a security issue... like that they figured out how to identify someone's location based on unique power fluctuations from sun/clouds somehow leaking into a detectable…
This is a story about urban public transit, not inter-city rail. The size of the country or spread between cities is not really relevant. (And the low density of post-war American city sprawl is a consequence of our…
It would be interesting to relax the color requirements such that you could encode a program into what looks like image noise. Sort of like steganography, but instead of hidden data, it's a hidden executable program.
But watch out for 100vh on mobile. It doesn't account for the sometimes there, sometimes not there address bar. To solve that, there's svh (small), lvh (large), and dvh (dynamic). If you want to make a div stretch to…
"A $200,000 plant..." Those 1954 dollars comes out to about $2.3 million today. That seems really low for a factory. Could you set up manufacturing for anything for $2 million today? (Besides Etsy shops...)
Well please let's not just rebuild all our roads to accommodate the fastest and stupidest drivers. (See above about pedestrian and cyclist safety). I guess that's just always happening anyway. Except in a few cities…
JavaScript language and browsers have tons of facilities for dealing with date times in sensible ways, including displaying a `Date` object in the local time zone and local preferred formatting. SpaceX designed their…
My favorite was "North Korean propaganda or TED talk soundbite?" There are a few articles about it but the actual quiz doesn't seem to be up anymore.
No, the new demand is induced. Among the many things people consider when buying a house or choosing a new place to rent, is the commute time to wherever they might need to go. A suburb with an hour commute from the job…
I would say it's not your age, but I'm getting old too, so... Anyway, suggestion to the developers: Your intro video needs work. A little context setting would go a long way in those first few examples. Five seconds in…
The cutoff is nowhere near that soon after sunset. At midnight? Sure, you're not going to see satellites. But against a dark sky, you can see satellites reflecting for at least a couple hours. They may not be in direct…
I can't say I remember the associated sound, but the on-screen "!" goes all the way back to the original Metal Gear for NES.
Yeah no kidding. I, a real human, also love it when $app_name empowers everyday users.
We have a countertop ice maker that gets jammed up and overloaded with ice on sunny days for a similar reason. There's an infrared beam and sensor. When the ice tray is full, it is supposed to block the beam, and then…
When it comes to pricing products at absolutely outrageous multiples of material cost, the "audio community" seems to be in its own league. I don't think the desktop toy market is quite there.
90% of Canadians live in a "small" strip of land that is comparable in size to Europe. That area (along with several regions and city pairs in the US) could have excellent inter-city and intra-city transit. But we just…
Our dog (several years old at this point) sometimes puts her mouth around the edge of her bed and kneads it with her paw. Clearly a nursing behavior. We got her as a rescue so with her unknown history, it may be…
