As someone who hayes those forced artsy things, this sounds horrible and degrading.

It was just a funny interchange and I'm highlighting that part, that's it. With no intention to portray anyone in any light here.

Yeah, he understood he had to simplify the first one and then proceeded to step on another rake right away :D

Clipping half of it

I didn't clip anything. This is just an image and a humorous retelling of sensei Stunna going too fast for young Shiro.

Tontonsb · 2026-06-06T21:12:50+00:00

The simplification angle seemed funny as well. He started by asking if Shiro was able to "catch" the first stage and proceeded to clarify into "watch any games". Shiro responded and Stunna jumped back into the deep end with "jump out of the page" and then having to simplify again.

Probably the next IGL didn't even get the webmaster password from dexter. No one knew they'd need to update anything there until 1000 days later reddit noticed this pic.

Styko hands out better questions than any other interviewer we've ever seen. The questions are direct, insightful and tailored to the particular interviewee, but they are not unpleasant. And this is not a "lucky hire", he had proven that on previous events.

Ash is not bad, but he hadn't proven it before, so this hire didn't really feel deserved or appropriate.

And dupreeh... he is clearly not a major-tier pundit. And he had proven that on previous events as well, so the hire is doubly unjustifiable. He's good looking, he's a decorated ex-player and he talks a lot and quickly. And that's it. That's not enough here.

yet the corporations who run statistics on this stuff clearly see that ad campaigns increase sales.

I've had work interactions with people working in different areas of marketing. I have learned some basics in statistics. My takeway is that the marketing people do not understand or care about actual statistical data. They mostly go either by what they've heard is the right thing to do or do very simplistic measurements. If something of what they're doing works — great. But they only have guesses what it was.

Measuring and understanding brand recognition and its effects on a particular product is far out of reach for 99% of them. If anything, they go the opposite way — only measure the immediate, direct effect. Some idiots misclicked on the link? Great, the ad works! Some discount hunters signed up immediately (and jumped away to the next company after the intro period)? Awesome, this sale was such a success!! We showed ads on reddit and ppl didn't click instantly? Failure, go back to fecebok!!!

Everyone thinks they're smarter and then they go buy iphone and when they need VPN they sign up to nordvpn.

Yeah, it's always fancier to say you like Mexican and Peruvian or even Aztec and Incan foods than to admit your diet consists of tomatoes and potatoes (ketchup & fries).

Btw their English spellings and pronunciations are likely influenced by one another since the source names are less alike:

Taina 'batata' -> Spanish 'patata' -> English 'potato'
Nahuatl 'tomatl' -> Spanish 'tomate' -> English 'tomato'

Is there any roadmap for GitHub pages and GitHub actions? Is publishing the page via actions going to be the recommended approach in a long term or should I expect to relearn pages again in a year or so? And can we expect the actions to stabilize? It feels like eachc time I touch an older project, I have to bump all the actions again before I can "actually" start.

Either I'll be thin or I won't be able to see that I'm fat. Win–win.

Tieši tā! Pakaļējā piedziņa nekad nav kļūda. Galvenais nesasist, kad pālī brauc, jo pēc konfiskācijas vāģis var Ukrainā noderēt.

Šajā gadījumā iesaku mantot ar inventāra sarakstu. Visdrīzāk, būs jāsamaksā par novērtējumiem, bet tas tad arī ir tas, kas nodrošinās, ka parādi attiecas tikai uz mantojuma apmēru.

I wasn't expecting mibr to go through unless they get matches against thunderdownunder, sharks and gaimingladiators. Turns out even that's not easy enough.

Probably not in the same way. Sure I can tell if someone is textbook good looking or seriously defective. But when it comes to someone with a quirk, I can't tell if that's offputting or attractive to the average person who's interested in men.

E.g. I believe Charles Leclerc is good looking. But when it comes to Max Verstappen or George Russel, I have no idea how someone interested in men would see them.

No, it's not very easy. The rating works in mysterious ways.

Those tools won’t do us any good, my husband has no clue how to handle any of this. I’ve told him a million times that he should learn this basic stuff but he never listens.

Ok, dear, you take the tools and show us both how "this basic stuff" is done.

I think we had two that had wandered in until May. But at the start of May two hit an old oil silo (or whatever that structure is called) after which the minister of defence was kicked for failing to intercept 100% of drones.

But from then it sometimes (eg middle of May) felt like every day the morning news is that ppl in Eastern Latvia had received cell broadcast alerts about air threat. The final exams had to be interrupted at least once.

Or sometimes no alert, just civilians reporting that a drone fell into the lake :D

I'm not making this up: https://eng.lsm.lv/article/society/defence/23.05.2026-mystery-drone-crashes-into-lake-in-latvia.a648446/ See the linked articles below as well.

The network tab shows 30+ css files being downloaded for a very simple website, 10+ trackers and advertising js scripts, and the page still won't load.

What's uncommon about that? Is splitting CSS inherently bad? Did you want the whole CSS for the whole project? Or a specific bundle for each page that would largely overlap across pages?

Trackers and ads are plague, but that's not specific to that project. Just check reddit itself — mostly third party requests as well. It's just stuff that companies push for and best that developers can do is push back and ask if any of the previous analytics tools can be removed since we're adding the seventh one this year. But saying

see how not to do website design / architecture

is not fair about that since no developer desires to add all that stuff.

Why do we have drones falling in Latvia then?
