I prefer to buy books to own. But books are expensive, so if a particular book feels like it’s not something worth the money to keep, I just borrow it from the library instead. That’s literally money saved for me. Yeah, you could argue that if the library wouldn’t have been an option then maybe I wouldn’t have bought the book at all, so no difference there, but it’s still the difference between reading the book for free or not reading the book at all.
I go to the library every week with my kids. We usually have 20-30 books checked out at a time. 5 books per week is nothing for a whole family.
But why is a character from Alien: Romulus there? Did he get confused for Ford Prefect? But Ford would not speak against towels. So yeah, still confusing…

Just yesterday I was reminiscing with my wife about how TP rolls used to have no tube when we were children and how hard it was to find the center to put them on the holder.
Romans were not great at English I guess

For me it’s just convenience. It’s not because vim is better, but because it works on any terminal. I don’t depend on a particular IDE setup, I can jump on any computer and start working. And since I’ve been using it for so many years I’m very fast in it. The best tool is often the one you know best.
Not sure why you’d remember the ones you rarely need. I just memorized the things I use. Remembering stuff you use is much easier than learning a programming language. I’ve been programming for over 30 years and I’ve been using vim as my only “IDE” for the last 14 years. It would take me significantly less time to teach someone vim than to teach them programming.
Cells were collected from a cheeck swab. And it’s not a real product, it’s an art project.
And vim/emacs are rated just as difficult as a programming language

everything would be art so nothing would be art
A lot of artists share that thought
Anyone can take a photo, sure but making art via photography is incredibly complex.
I think that’s exactly the point. Anyone can use AI, but that doesn’t make then all artists. But there is a place for AI in art, like many other tools. Same as for other tools, jusy knowing how to use them doesn’t make you an artist. Just look at all the bad Photoshop stuff everywhere. Does that mean that using Photoshop makes you a talentless hack? Or just that a lot of hacks use it to pretend they’re artists? Same for AI.
Compared to what it takes to become a policeman in the US, it’s definitely a higher level of training. Hard to find a direct US equivalent.
Gendarmerie is part of the military, higher than police. And he was a sergeant. He’s part of both the national team and the national army team.
I remember one of my dad’s co-workers asking my dad to bring me to his place so I can walk him through Dizzy as he wrote everything down.
Growing up with games that had no save options and no walk-throughs, we’re the OG gamers.
I remember playing the original Lemmings and SimCity without a mouse.
It’s four twists
