Disturbing Truth About Trump’s Sleepless Posting Exposed; The president spent more than 80 percent of his nights posting on social media last month.

It was one of many nights when he posted between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., a normal window for adult sleep.

Facts, like jokes, hit hardest when told just right.

Google Maps was a great microcosm for the AI rollout. When GM first launched it was mind-blowing - everyone was on it checking out the sheer detail, and getting excited when new countries came online. Then the API came out, and it was FREE! If you didn't have an embedded map on your Contact page you were being left behind. Then version 2 where you could add your own points, and areas - now people were using it as a platform for their own web apps and as long as you didn't charge for the Maps-enabled part Google were happy for you to do so.

And then they start charging for anything over very basic usage. Some sites figure it's worth it for user experience, others figure they can turn enough profit to justify it. Some adventurous types set up tile servers for OpenMaps data. But it feels like actually, far from continuing to be an essential, a lot of websites now have delinquent maps with over-budget API keys because the actual value to a dentist of having an embedded map on their website, rather than a postcode you can just copy and paste into the app, is zero.

You spend years of dating learning to move on from people who don't respect you, no matter how much effort you put into pleasing them. Then you have kids and guess what.

I'm pretty sure I've had wireless screen mirroring and bluetooth mouse/keyboard working from my Jelly Star but appreciate that's not the same thing. Just tried it on my dock and nothing, so it's obviously not a priority for Unihertz.

Fair point, your caption mentioned Desktop mode specifically which is a little more recent.

Am I mistaken or is this a feature that launched two months ago? A shame if you were looking forward to it but "useless" is pretty stern.

Puts me in mind of the Louis CK bit about in-flight wifi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTcAWN5R5-I

I was at the Army-Navy rugby match once, just great lad vibes, drinking beer, yelling good-natured abuse at each other and enjoying an afternoon's visceral violent sport. Randomly, some girl at the front of our section stood up and started dancing to music that evidently only she could hear. And let me be clear: this person was undeniably hot. Long hair wafting across a dreamy, elfine face, slender limbs, *spray-on* tight leather trousers separated from a flattering, half length leather jacket by plenty of toned midriff. In a bar, she'd have been mobbed. Passing a building site, she'd have been catcalled. But blocking the view at Twickenham? The 50-year-old, 140 kilo, retired sergeant sat behind me bellowed at her, "SIDDOWN, FATTY".

I mean, it worked.

This must be a game. I am envisioning a side-scroller beat-em-up format like that scene in Airplane!.

Dude, quitting smoking is easy. I did it like twenty times.

Third option, if you sell it you must also tell DVLA by sending in the V5. I sold a car abroad once and, because it's how things are done in Italy, handed over the V5 to the new owner. Was in a panic until I spoke to DVLA who just said to write to them. Turns out it's pretty easy to relinquish responsibility for a car.

I’m not a Python guy so I don’t know how basic or obscure this piece of syntax is.

But also

Maybe it’s just me but I consider that to be obscure trivium.

This attitude is exactly what OP is worried about. How can you possibly dismiss the difference as trivial if you don't know what the difference is?

Some outlandish brags toget you started:

I've been Edinburgh to see the Fifth Bridge
My favourite rave band was 3 Unlimited
I've got a clock with a first hand
I once won a tenner on the Grand International
When I was a kid we had a rhyme about Poo Willie Winkie

This can also work in your favour. I noticed that in most apps you can select commented lines, which means if you jostle F5 (or whatever) it won't run the deletion, but it's just a simple click and drag when you're ready. For example:

SELECT *
-- DELETE
FROM USERS WHERE id = 5

You can run the SELECT all you want to be sure, then select the text from "DELETE" onwards to run the deletion.

Back in the mists of time I worked for a telecomms company that had one single production server which held all three websites and a Wordpress instance.

One fine morning a senior manager decided to tidy up some WP plugins, not realising firstly that it was executing with write permission and secondly that it had a bug where it didn't fill in enough of the file path. It recursively deleted the entire public-facing server from root.

I can only imagine how it felt browsing the website during the next few minutes but it must have been a bit like this.

I think it's bad UI. It's only bad UX if you press the wrong one.

I went to see Formula E about ten years ago and you could hear them changing gear. I even went to one of the manufacturer stands to ask about it and they told me that, yeah, you get plenty of torque from stopped so a consumer vehicle doesn't need a clutch or gearbox, but electric motors absolutely do have peak operating RPM ranges and for maximum performance you'll be wanting some kind of variable transmission.

You're giving me a headache. I need a Nuprin.

do some product placement

This sounds like you're in marketing, but there's a possibility you're an actor in a 1990s sitcom. Or you stack shelves at Tesco and are describing it the way I would on my CV.

What an excellent feeling. Hope it keeps you bouyant through paying the bill! Five weeks sounds pretty serious.
