It’s been on my todo list to listen to it. What happened? Did it sell?

Margins are amazing. I’ve been using margins in CSS for over 20 years and it’s fine. Though I don’t use any fancy frameworks or things where encapsulation, copy/paste, etc will cause problems. If…

I would argue Magna Carta does indeed count, despite it being by Lords. It had very lasting impacts, despite the original Magna Carta not being respected by King John. If you look at monarchy rule aft…

I think I can agree with that. Although defamation is probably a grey area. If I say, “the vice president is corrupt and unintelligent”, should I not be allowed to speak that opinion?

What is “plastic” deformation in the context of metal?

I somehow lost access to an AppleID. I dont even know how. I have the password, it's saved in a Password Manager, and an old Mac is still logged in. But the new Mac would not accept my authentica…

I'd like there to be a "Report blogspam / SEO spam / plagiarism" button in DDG. Step 1: Click the result... Step 2: Ugh, swipe back Step 3: Click "Report poor result"…
