Generated by AI. Use 1secmail API without giving any credit.

False advertisment.

You got it. This is AI Slop at it's worst. And even the replies from the author reeks of AI. I read some of the source code, and it is slop, which I would never trust without scrutiny. Carefully read just the first words of benmxrt:

You're right that the current beta…

That is a great point

Absolutely agree with both of you

That is an intriguing feature request

That’s a very fair point

You hit the nail on the head

Great question

That is a valid point

Sharp eye

From a German user perspective, ICU and your fancy library are incorrect, actually. Mass is not a different casing of Maß, they are different characters. Google likely changed this because it didn't do what users wanted.
b2ccb2 · 2 days ago
The confusion likely stems from the relatively new introduction of the capitalized ẞ https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fes_%C3%9F

Maß capitalized (used to be) MASS.

Funnily enough, Mass means one liter beer (think Oktoberfest).

I also wasn't understanding the value looking at the first two examples, but the pricing packages example I do think I would struggle to implement in a clean way using traditional css.

I'd use <table>. It literally is a table. And for mobile just do a media query to turn it into a flexbox.

From the blog post:

> Even if your btrfs, after almost 18 years, still eats data in spectacular fashion.

Is this (by now) an urban legend ? Is btrfs any less reliable than, say, xfs/ext4 etc. nowadays ?

b2ccb2 · 23 days ago

  The RAID 5 and RAID 6 modes of Btrfs are fatally flawed, and should not be used for "anything but testing with throw-away data."

While I agree that it's not as complicated as some make it out to be, let's not pretend it's just one variable change.

filter: invert(1);

Or, my dark mode for HN:

@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { html { background-color: #000; } body, td[bgcolor="#ff6600"] { filter: invert(1); } }

I am pretty sure @dang wrote about it on here before, but I can't seem to find it.

> the country that’s consistently ranked in the top 3 countries with the most gun related deaths

I am begging you to learn what “per-capita” means, and to not deceptively include self-inflicted deaths in your public-safety arguments: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-r...

Here you go, from the same page you posted, gun ownership correlated to gun homicides in all developed countries:
