  • I think it's a joke about (or rather, a dig at) night mode. I'd seen the blog and that "dark mode" on a previous post about syntax highlighting where he'd mentioned he preferred light mode.

  • I don't understand why venison isn't on the menu more often in the UK. When I do see it, it's often on the special board, or in less mainstream restaurants. It's tasty, healthy and sustainable so what's that problem?

  • That's my assumption, it would be interesting to hear the exact details, and if Mozilla has been approached regarding this already.

  • Why would blocking ad blockers in Firefox bring in another $150 million? From where?

  • This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years

    Jump

  • I'm thinking of it the same way, and not having the readers be trade secrets but published specs is good for future digital archeologists.

    For example, Dyson uses trade secrets instead of patents, so it would be harder to recreate their tech in the future.

    Edit: patents not parents 🤦

  • "We are a technology licensing company"

    This is good news from the point of view of being able to create devices that can read these crystals; as a comment on the linked site says:

    The realistic lifetime of storage is the life of the last manufactured or surviving retrieval device.

  • Mild spoilers ahead, but you're reading the solutions thread.

    I was just doing some preliminary checking of the data on my phone with Nushell (to see how much my ageing laptop would suffer) when I discovered there weren't any non trivial cases.

    Normally I get the test data working before trying the input data, this is definitely teaching me the value of investigating the data before heading down into the code mines.

    Unfortunately I can't get the second star yet because I missed a few days.

  • Sounds like perhaps unified codes would be the answer to that problem!

  • JD Vance is sick of 67: ‘Ban these numbers forever’

    Jump

  • Interesting stuff, thanks for writing it up.

    I did know that US codes weren't standardised, partially because the video covers it - perhaps I should have phrased it as "a police code" to be more technically correct. Edit: or bothered to check the video so could have written "Philadelphia police code" - but then I would have missed out on your reply.

    Seven German journalism students tracked Russian-crewed freighters lurking off the Dutch and German coast—and connected them to drone swarms over military bases

    Jump

  • If you read the article, you learn that the authorities never properly searched any of these freighters - that's probably a more sensible place to start.
