You get used to it sooner than you’d think. There are libraries to convert between regex and English. Maybe it deserves a Unicode code block like APL?

Not something I’ve encountered.

Wait until you see what they do to avoid learning SQL or Regex or JSON Pointer or XPath.

If you want everything bundled instead of à la carte, that sounds more like eclipse to me. But then, I don’t understand how anyone can program in Java.

Many algorithms aren’t even doing that in good faith, instead substituting in their low-cost contract cover bands as often as they can.

What could be more human than that?

The moratorium is actually since 2000, but only since 2006 in its current form. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_use_restriction_technology

Thankfully, no country, much less any multinational corporation, would ever dare cross the UN’s nonbinding, unenforceable moratorium. Can you imagine how stern the tone of the statement of condemnation would be, once it was worded such that a reasonable plurality of countries would agree to back it?

I guess the chicken and egg may have appeared at the same time.

I’ve always called Word documents and PDFs “dead-end formats” (DEF). Once you export your data to them, there’s no reliable way to retrieve your data from them for further transformation like you can for YAML, JSON, XML, HTML, Markdown, &c.

I had that computer, and it was much more than a calculator, unless you mean a modern programmable one. This one could be programmed in BASIC. It also had a receipt-sized printer you could get.

There was almost a Mormon Navy?

I learned this from Professor Moby.

The Aquaman movies were laying some groundwork for the Warlock comics to maybe be included, which is a hollow-earth reality. It’s too bad they did such a terrible job.

I guess you’re completely right if you just assume your own conclusion.

So do feature testing, not user-agent sniffing! For Pete’s sake, it’s 2024! That’s been the best practice for decades!
