It was an aprils fools joke from the company. I found the authors website, where he showcases it as part of his portfolio: https://mauricevanberkel.nl/portfolio-tag/easytoys/ And it is documented here also: https://www.adformatie.nl/merkstrategie/1-aprilgrappen-van-merken-professioneler-dan-ooit

But I love coding at work?!

The problem is that every living entity in a 10 kilometer radius around me, seems to be hellbent on getting me to do anything but coding. Refining work estimates, fixing badge access rights, fixing a driver issue, telling people that you cannot do 1000 things at the same time, teaching the new developer how shit (doesn’t) works, mangling Jenkins into a functional state again, explaning that thing I did a year ago but is only now used (it was very high prio a year ago), writing documentation that noboby ever reads, progress meetings, specialty group meetings, knowledge sharing meetings, company wide meetings, etc.

I have a ton of legs. Waayyy more than 2.

What can I say? They were cheap, and I love chicken.

I don’t believe that is true. It might surprise you how often testicles are eaten.

I already saw this happening on Reddit. The largest subreddit were filled with generic posts. They got a lot of content, not necessarily good content. But there were plenty of small or medium sized subreddits that had much better content. The Fediverse feels like it is missing the big subreddits. It also feels too small to have the small niche subreddits. What is here in terms of content feels more like a few medium sized subreddits.

Even in Javascript, the ?? operator checks explicitly for null or undefined. So it added undefined, but not 0 or false. But adding undefined sounds like a good addition for this operator.

See the Javascript section of: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_coalescing_operator#Examples_by_languages

At least a good diff tool will ignore whitespace diffs.

I also can’t figure out why their selection is what it is. But Thales is not really 1 company. Tacticos is developed by the Dutch branch (note that the location of this job is Hengelo), which means it is treated as a Dutch company for export control purposes, not a French one.

My guess would be that they have existing export contracts for new versions of Tacticos to these countries.

Such thoughts can be very Satisfactory indeed.

My C++ teacher taught me to be against unions. He made everything class based instead.

This is terrible programming advice.

Considering that portals are quite literally linked in a spatial manner, it would make sense that they physically cannot move independantly. Moving the orange portal would also move the blue portal. Or from a different perspective: the portals are always fixed in space, but their surrounds can move.

But that does not make the question shown here untestable. It just means the output portal will have a velocity of it’s own.

How to test: place 2 portals next to each other on a wall. Then apply propulsion gel in front of the orange portal. And finally move yourself at high speed through the orange portal.

If your speed is unchanged after exiting the blue portal, but your velocity has been inverted with respect to the direction that the wall is facing, we can conclude option B must hold.

For shits amd giggles, I put a couple of industrial 10W fans in my PC once. That probably still made more noise than this. It also created so much overpressure that I could feel air escaping the tower from every little hole or crack. You could hold a piece of paper to the side of the pc, and see it moving because of the air escaping between the side panel and the main hull.

But if these are normal fans (max maybe 1,5W), then the amount of power drawn will be the same as a couple of hardrives.

Q. If you connect to google.com, how do you know you are talking to google.com, and not bing.com? A. You find the CA of the certificate that google.com send you, and you ask that CA if the certificate is valid.

Q. How do you know that the CA is actually the CA, and not some fake actor? A. You find the CA of the CA, and ask it to validate the certificate of the CA.

Q. How do you know that the CA of the CA is actually the CA of the CA? A. After several layers of this recursion, there is a hardcoded set of trusted certificates on your PC.

If someone self-signs a certificate, then this chain of questions ends well before you end up with a hardcoded (and thus trusted) certificate.

Let’s encrypt verifies that a certificate is created from a specific domain. Therefor it can tell is whether the cert belongs to a domain with certainty.

No idea of there is such a feature, but I wouldn’t want to use it anyway, because the sorting is lost if you download the files.

Why not rename the files by adding a pre-fix number? Then you can sort on name.
