Do you think it would be helpful if you could select which rule you think a post/account has violated when making a report instead of having to type it out by hand?

BotW is a really lovely game. But I miss the dungeons. The shrines are not nearly enough. I guess it's all about the vast outside world, and maybe the engine wouldn't be as good for dungeons, but what if both.

my paper "Making legacy Fortran code type safe through automated program transformation" has just been published in Journal of Supercomputing, as Open Access:

"We present the first rigorous analysis of the type safety of FORTRAN 77 and the novel program transformation and type checking algorithms required to convert FORTRAN 77 subroutines and functions into pure, side-effect free subroutines and functions in Fortran 90.
We show that the resulting code is type safe and that the pure, side-effect free and referentially transparent subroutines can readily be offloaded to accelerators."

Pretty sure that makes the world non-binary.

There's a cheese from up here called Grevé(ost,) and I wondered what grevé means since it's not Swedish.
Apparently it's just a nonsense word that doesn't mean anything, but was made up to be reminiscent of Swiss cheeses like Gruyère. :blobcatgiggle:

It saddens me a bit though that browsers have to go to heroic efforts to improve things like input responsiveness. Usually there are things the web developer can do to help, but they rarely bother.

For instance: debounce your input handlers! The typing indicator on Pinafore shows how close you are to the 500 character limit, but it doesn't check for every character you type. It checks lazily with requestIdleCallback, which keeps responsiveness smooth even if you type fast on a slow machine.

I think this brewing post is really important -- it's at least likely to make me unhireable in some large fraction of FAANG firms in the future -- but I've been wrong on both counts before.
