@PowerDNS_Bert Oh and for my fellow compiler/runtimes people, there are mentions of calling conventions too! 😆

I don’t tweet much, but I had to make an exception to praise this fantastic write-up by @PowerDNS_Bert.

An incredibly well-written and explained look at how years of accumulated research and discoveries brought us the BNT162b2 vaccine.

@leiradel @brunoborges The pop2 implementation doesn't need to care about the types. It will pop 2 words, regardless of whether those are 2 Cat1 operands or 1 Cat2 operand. That's why the doc for pop2 says "Pop the top one or two values from the operand stack".

@spolsky Just read Birdcage Liners. Spot on, and very similar to this post I wrote a while back (except yours is better written): https://t.co/MAuN3whTnY

We as programmers have a social responsibility to think about these things when designing software.

Crying tears of joy at being back on 60Hz after months at 30. Yes, I spend a lot of time in a text editor. No, that doesn't make it okay.

When filtering a set of content for a person, using similarity to prior content is convenient, but reinforcing beliefs isn’t always “right”.

This is a few months old, but now is a good time to remind ourselves to think about this when building stuff: https://t.co/MAuN3whTnY

@siracusa When everything is a Pro model, nothing is a Pro model.

And no, I'm not changing caps lock. It is and always will be Ctrl.

New MBP has no physical F keys or ESC, and key travel from the MacbookOne? I'm half-considering ordering a current MBP before it's too late.

@CastIrony @caseyliss Also not sure whtr the fact that the L-R slider applies to the on-board speakers is intentional. Does it help anyone?

[Aditya Mandaleeka @mandaleeka]

@CastIrony Touché. This is definitely not the intended use (cc @caseyliss).

. @SwiftOnSecurity This isn't a setting that should be left on. Just a band-aid if this problem bothers you and you are ok w/ the tradeoffs.

[Aditya Mandaleeka @mandaleeka]

@zubie7a @SwiftOnSecurity Yup. You have to change it back. It also doesn't work if you change the orientation of the screen so L is R.
