> without needing so much as a simple majority confirmation vote in the House or Senate

This is intentional. Pardons are part of the checks and balances against the legislative branch.

It did introduce ambiguity though. Without the comma it is 100% clear that sentence lists 3 people.

If they are not on PEDs, yes.

Apple pages are _completely_ unusable because of this. If I go to product page I am unable to navigate it to extract information about the product. I give up and leave.

https://www.apple.com/macbook-neo/

Try to skim this page to get a sense of how much information is on the page. You can't. 90% of the scroll time is stuck in useless animations.

Every time you scroll down you have to wait for the page to render. We've somehow recreated the dialup experience with single page apps.

Your brain is trained on how scrolling works on 95% of pages. Breaking that patterns causes tons of cognitive overhead. You now have to do a double-take every scroll action when you just want to absorb the contents of the page.

Not really. The equilibrium of removing daylight savings will result in schedules somewhere between DST and Standard Time. This just gets you there faster.

The trade off of having 30-minute time zone offsets probably isn't worth it, but this solution isn't immediately "stupid."

Seriously. This page terrible with multiple annoying rendering delays, and I'm supposed to care about helping their RSS feeds load faster?

Are you seriously comparing a random hacker to a lifelong academic for their odds of becoming a crypto shill?

Do you think the submitter intended this as an ad? His post history doesn't seem suspicious.

Or do you think article's author wrote this an an ad? He's a reputable academic who seems impressed with an AI tool he used and is honestly sharing his thoughts.

For reference he published the 80 page inflation mini-book 2 weeks ago asking for feedback: https://www.grumpy-economist.com/p/inflation

There are times when an em dash can be used in place of a semicolon, but I don't think that's the usual LLM usage. Instead it's replacing a replacing a comma, colon, or period.

Unless you're talking about restructuring your sentences to allow for a semicolon; that's fine.

For example that semicolon could have been an em dash, but I don't think it's the type that LLMs over favor.

It's hard to take complaints about UI consistency seriously when the cursor is changed for no reason at all (with a barely-different hover state, too).

And a GDP 2/3 the size. And way less than that by disposable income.

Even users from "rich" EU countries are worth ~30% of a US user to most companies.

But that's undefined behavior, so the compiler is free to ignore that possibility.

For context this article was written when 95%+ of websites used HTTP 1.1 (and <50% used HTTPS).

You must never drive on a curvy roads then. Every car I driven waits until the approaching car is fully around the corner, blinding them for a full second before dimming, instead recognizing the headlights around the corner and dimming earlier.

That's running 5 miles a day. Everyday. That takes months of training for an already fit young person to build up to.

90 minutes of extra walking is a lot of time to offset a snack that could be eaten in 1 minute.

The in-memory solution creates a 2nd copy of the data so 50GB doesn't fit in memory anymore. The kernel is forced to drop and then reload part of the cached file.
