If you really need an implementation that works in all modern browsers, a simple keyframe animation is the way to go.

So? It’s not like pregnant women are planning weeks in advance for an exact date to give birth. An estimated due date is exactly that: an estimate. I don’t have exact statistics on hand but if I remember correctly, your 10% are even a bit high and it’s more like 3% on the exact date. But about 50% are within +/- one week of the original due date and 80% are within +/- two weeks which is pretty good accuracy for a 40 week time span¹. If you adjust based on ultrasound results, you can get even more accurate estimates but the original due date gives you a good timeline when those ultrasounds (and other examinations) should be done.

¹ seriously, try estimating any other 40 week project to within a week with 50% accuracy.

The latter. This is not about politics but about medicine and it’s nothing new. Calculating weeks of pregnancy from the previous menstruation is generally a lot more reliable in predicting the date of birth than calculating from conception.

The mother may not remember the exact day she had sex, she may have had sex multiple times and not know which time led to conception and as an additional hurdle, sperm may need multiple days to to reach the egg so even if she had sex only once and remembers the exact date, that doesn’t really help to know when the egg was fertilized.

On the other hand, there is a relatively narrow window (a few days) during a cycle when fertilization is the most likely, so calculating from a known point of reference relative to her cycle gives good results.

There is no “new calculation”. This is how medical professionals have calculated weeks of pregnancy for decades if not centuries. The reason is that it’s a lot more reliable than going by date of conception (which is not necessarily the date the parents had sex. Sperm can take days to reach the egg).

If it is because you’ve never asked: not at all.

If he actively refuses to talk about it: at least a bit weird.

There could be a hidden quadratic cost because the string needs to be reallocated and copied multiple times.

Oh yeah, the guy who fights for fair wages, universal basic income, free healthcare and equal rights for everyone criticizes that your favorite „non-profit“ organization looks more and more like a for-profit corporation every year and comes begging while wearing a gold watch. He must be a fascist.

My argument is that nobody needs 500k to do their job right and there is no justification for paying a manager five to ten times as much as an engineer, especially not on donation money.

I‘d rather give to a smaller project where the money actually ends up with the people who do most of the work.

Then pay the people who actually keep the website running. I bet they don’t earn half a million per year.

And pretty high compared to what most donors have.

Next time you think about donating to a foundation, look at their CEO‘s salary, then think again.

I don’t see any AI, just a list that got sorted alphabetically when it shouldn’t have been.

Looking back, I find every single aspect of the 2018 design more accessible than the current one. Releases are above the fold, the list of forks is reachable by clicking the number next to the fork button, the explore link is right there in the top navigation. Sure, having three levels of horizontal navigation doesn’t look very clean but there must be a better solution than hiding everything in hamburger menus and sidebars where you can only find them if you already know they exist.

If I remember correctly, they used to be in a tab in the top navigation, together with “Code”, “Issues”, “Pull requests”, etc. which was a lot easier to find for people who are not familiar with GitHub’s UI. Edit: it was a separate bar right above the file list, together with the number of commits and branches: https://web.archive.org/web/20180610234228/https://github.com/rails/rails

Same problem with forks / network. In earlier revisions of GitHub’s UI, they were relatively easy to find. Now you have to know that you can click the “59.7k forks” sidebar text which is in no way styled like a link or button. You can just infer it from the fact that there are also “Readme” and “View license” in the same list.

I’m always open for making new friends.

And even if he didn’t go rogue, there is always bus factor to consider. How many people can get hit by a bus before your company breaks down? For a scary amount of companies, the number is exactly one because there is always that one expert who knows stuff that nobody else does.

Regarding the title: I once made an “ACAB - Assigned Cute At Birth” t-shirt in non-binary pride colors for a friend of mine. Kind of reminded me of that.

He was pretty much spot on, they came close once in August and then crossed over in October:

Interesting that Twitter isn’t on that chart even though it had been a thing for about six years at that point and had already eclipsed everything on Randall’s list in 2010

It may still be missing stuff from before the first person from your home instance joined the community which can make younger communities feel empty.

HEMA, though I haven’t found much time to practice lately so it’s becoming more of a sword collecting hobby.
