Older C compilers would truncate a variable name if it was too long, so VeryLongGlobalConstantInsideALibraryInSeconds
might accidentally collide with VeryLongGlobalConstantInsideALibraryInMinutes
.
Legend says that they used to do it after a single letter with Dennis declaring “26 variables ought to be enough for anyone”.

They started from XML. There’s nowhere to go but up but spring managed to fuck even that up.

Friends don’t let friends use Java 😜
Whoosh
Seriously though, spring configurations are written in XML and you create variables, call functions, and have control flow. Effectively turning XML into a horrible twisted shadow of a programming language.
All in the name of “configurability” through dependency injection.
XML is the second worst programming language ever created by humans

I can see why you called it pretzel
Plover-net perhaps?
Do you remember the area code?
Used by search engines for listing which pages should be indexed.
Did you install from Google Play?
Open the Play Store link on your phone - the automatic update process has been thoroughly broken for at least a year.
If you installed from f-Droid I have no clue - I use stock android without any alternate stores set up.
@[email protected] released v0.0.51 in mid December, but I think it only reached Google Play on Dec 18th. I’m not sure when/if it was pushed up to f-Droid.
There are some minor issues, but largely it works fine for me on instances running 0.19
Intel, whose investment will be over five years, will pay a corporate tax rate of 7.5% instead of 5% previously. The normal tax rate is 23%, but under Israel’s law to encourage investment in development areas, companies receive large benefits.
Usually these types of grants are never a good investment but the increased corporate tax rate alone covers a third of the grant (9b yearly taxable revenue at 2.5% over 5 years comes out to 1.125b).
Can you explain what you mean by “Didn’t happen in a vacuum”?
Best I can figure is that you disagree with the act itself, but agree with their motives or desires. But I really don’t want to assume, and would prefer to understand from you.
Yes.
Hamas attacked on October 7th. Not the other way around.
Do you think that Hamas will negotiate a peace deal in good faith?
The issue here is that even if Reuters want told ahead of time, the paid money to a person who has a close working relationship with a foreign terrorist organization. Sufficiently close that they knew exactly where to go along a 60km (37mi) border in time to take pictures of hostages being brought into Gaza. At least one of the photographers took photographs of himself inside Israeli territory.
The true focus needs to be on failed financial controls within these companies - transacting with sanctioned entities is a big fucking problem (strict liability fines, criminal liability) and should rightly worry these companies.
I truly believe they just jumped on a huge story and had no malintent. This is mostly saber rattling by Israel to counter what they perceive to be biased reporting.
To be fair, Firefox on Android used to support all extensions. Then they killed it for some boneheaded reason, brought back ublock and a handful of others, and recently opened it up fully again.
On Android, you can also use Firefox and install unlock origin. And dark reader. And whatever other extension you want.
So to be clear: you didn’t laugh?
