I can confidently say that CSV support is one of those problems that even the brightest computer scientists will be pondering for the decades to come.

Supporting CSVs sounds like an easy problem, but it's not. It's like a whole different complexity type. Time complexity, space complexity, and now, the dreaded subclass between spec complexity and organisational complexity.

You can't just make the users agree which delimiter to use and how quotes are supposed to work. That's nearly impossible. No no no.

They stated that they will be releasing full episodes on YouTube in regions where they don't have an exclusivity contract.

I'm in Finland, can see the full episodes. I don't think the show is on any terrestial/cable channel here, only HBO Max/Nordic.

Coming from Europe. Those prices still look frighteningly low. I knew fast food was cheaper in the US but jeez.

One day someone will use the SQL injection to execute code on the remote server to add message to the web site that tells the workers to unionise and demand actually fair wages and put an end to the whole tipping nonsense

Me, I'm like, well, I could buy the train tickets on the app. But that'd require opening the bank app simultaneously to authorise the payment, and it's a bit fiddly (it didn't work reliably on my shitty phone a decade ago, it does work these days). Soooo I'll buy the tickets on laptop and run the bank app on the phone.

George Lucas should screen this cut of the film at Sodankylä Film Festival in Finland.

That way, he could be feted by the most dedicated of the film buffs. AND experience the Aurora Borealis. Localised entirely on the geographic region he is in.

I thought the Egyptians were responsible for that!

I mean, look at 𓆉 Gardner I2, and don't tell me it's not similar to the modern hieroglyphic 🐢 U+1F422 TURTLE. Appreciation of the animals has what has kept the civilisations stable and true. Like the turtles. Can you point to any example where society has fallen if they appreciated turtles so much that they dedicated a letter for them? (Or in case of the Unicode Age, twice?)

Well the latter half of the levels is pretty tough as I recall. Had problems getting there. (Though as I recall, the biggest problem with Game Boy games was the battery consumption. Kids these days have no idea.)

The final level, however? Easy easy. Epic airplane fun.

Hope she handed the Game Boy to the kids once she got there! Because who doesn't like blasting shit up with a plane!

Windows devs: "We need to ask the keyboard makers to add a special key for OS stuff. A Windows key. Yeah."

KDE devs: "There's something special about the K key, and none of us can put it to words."

Yeah why are wolves always portrayed as enemies. They're so fluffy and howly! Just give them food.

"Oh I've been practising drawing. Lots of plans for comics I'll be making soon, I hope."

"Can I see your practice drawings?"

"...No."
