The world clock in Google's current clock application centers the HH:MM:SS clock with a fixed padding on the left and right side.
However, it is not using a monospace font.
Meaning that the digits jump around left and right (and also extend/shrink to the top and bottom) every second, most noticeably when the second goes x0 → x1 → x2.
I am at the same time very and not at all surprised that this made it to prod.
For the past few months I have been visiting daily the home pages of Wikipedia's English and Italian (my native language) editions. Since featured articles and highlights change every day these pages are incredible resources for discovering facts, stories, places, and connections on all sorts of topics.

libcurl has done internet transfers specified as URLs for a long time, but the URLs you'd tell libcurl to use would always just get parsed and used internally.daniel.haxx.se

ИИ — просто мешок слов. Как перестать видеть интеллект там, где его нет
Наука — это «задача сильного звена»: даже если мы произведём в миллион раз больше посредственных исследований, окажемся там же, где и сейчас.
Если нам нужно больше действительно сильных работ, чем же наполнять "мешок" LLM? Можно забивать его статьями, но часть из них — сфабрикованы, часть — просто ошибочны, и все они содержат неявные допущения, которые могут оказаться ложными.
К тому же часто не хватает ключевой информации — нет данных, недостаточно подробно описаны методы.
Предприниматель Маркус Страссер, пытавшийся сделать компанию из серии «положим все статьи в "мешок" → ??? → профит», в итоге отказался от затеи, заявив, что «почти ничего из того, что действительно делает науку наукой, не опубликовано в виде текста в интернете».
Даже лучший "мешок" в мире бесполезен, если в него не положить правильные вещи.

Или: Claude, пойдёшь со мной на выпускной?Слушайте, я не знаю, уничтожит ли нас когда-нибудь искусственный интеллект, сделает ли он нас всех богатыми или что-то...Ксения Мосеенкова (Habr)
«Мешок слов» — не супруг, не наставник, не босс и не раб. Это инструмент. Его предназначение — снимать с нас рутину и усиливать наши способности. Его социальный статус — отсутствует; бессмысленно спрашивать, «лучше» ли он нас. Настоящий вопрос такой: становимся ли мы лучше, когда им пользуемся?

Tuesday.
For the third time in as many months, some agency is offering me a .com version of the domain I use for personal email because it might "be relevant for my personal or business use". If I'd wanted the .com, I'd have bought it when I got the .me nearly 12 years ago.
Domain tarting shouldn't be a thing.
Daughter's gone off to school most cheerful and isn't back until tomorrow for it is sleeping over at a friend's home. I suspect my evening will end yet again with massaging some sort of cream or oil into some part of the wife's body, as she's really feeling the aches and pains at this stage in the pregnancy. Not exactly fun or unusual, but we're plodding on.
Busy day at work and a bit extra afterward, but I should be done by 6 or 6:30 tonight.
curl 8.16.0 is released tomorrow, September 10.
Two severity low vulnerabilities are getting published at the same time.
This release has 17 documented "changes", which amazingly happens to be more than any other single curl release ever done before.
This is release 270.

One of these mantras I keep repeating is how we in the curl project keep improving, keep polishing and keep tightening every bolt there is.daniel.haxx.se
I get this question fairly often. How would the projects I run manage if I took off? And really, the primary project people think of then is of course curl.daniel.haxx.se

Libervia CLI tip 6:
Most commands have an `-O, --output` option to format the output. By default, the output is pretty formatted for humans, but you can output in JSON, XML, or other formats.
With `template` output you can use Jinja templates, either built-in ones (the ones used in the web frontend), or your own; useful to build static HTML pages/sites, or reformat the data the way you want.
Use `--help` to see available outputs
Resize Mail Columns: yay 👍
Duplicate Events: 🍻 
BUT: can we remove the default prefix "Copy of" or make it user configurable, please.

it's a Mormon trap, otherwise don't fall for it. Silver isn't something to really invest in
edit: deleted link
the Hunt brothers tried to corner the silver market and managed to acquire a third of it but when they couldn't get loans anymore and the exchange halted silver futures contracts it's not like they could just sit on their silver and only sell what they needed to cover their loan repayments. They couldn't sell it fast enough obviously and they weren't going to stop mining it. So it all spiraled and crashed.
TLDR They'll mine silver faster than you can buy it, it's not that scarce
@feld
Good TLDR lol
It's "It's a Morman trap" just a phrase in your part of the country that means don't trust it or do the Mormans have anything to do with this?
Like "it's a Communist plot"?

Why are there so few affordable EVs in Canada?

Because our Government is sold to both the oiligarch and the auto industry. So they put tariffs on those who dare to make affordable ones.
