Needs a "sign up for our newsletter!" popover as well


Sending a .biz link in an SMS will be blocked by Google, and the sender won't be informed the message was not sent. Cheap domains are cheap for spammers too.


Wait "Is Debian reproducible yet?" breaks the are we part of the syntax!



Lol, yep that’s the etymology. But pretty sure y’all really don’t get it:

People get that a podcaster who's partial twitter bio is "#Bitcoin + Football" (and linked to this article) say it too it's just that you made a comment so generic as to be confusing


Just dunking on the establishment whiners, I don’t care if all of this confuses you.

Try watching the video while taking notes, maybe?


Your reference is generic enough to confuse someone who doesn't watch a lot of football podcasts, and your copy/pasted critique is not unique to the article. What a "dunk!" Notice the more interesting comments are critical of specific content if the article.


Can we go back to calling it "changing" instead of "pivoting" again?


I've gotten a LOT of these, either your data was sold or compromised. Easy to spot where the data came from because they are sent to masked email addresses (notice they sent it to your `+ifit` address) which makes me think iFit was compromised (not Gmail).

Change your password and email for iFit, poison your data (put in fake names/info if you can). Search your email at the haveibeenpwned website and it will return any data leaks it was a part of.

If you're into scam-baiting, call the number (ideally with a fake/VOIP number) they provided and play along with the scam until they realize you're bullshitting. Do it enough times and your email is removed from their spam list. For extra fun, post the number to r/scambait and they will be inundated with calls for a while.


> [Vite is] almost drop-in replacement for create-react-app (CRA)

Can anyone with experience replacing CRA with Vite speak to how true this is?


your credit (FICO) score might take a hit when you close a card, especially an old one


I did not realize this until I cancelled a card that I'd had for 15-20 years, much longer than any others, because I'd switched to another card from the same company (AMEX) and wasn't using that old card anymore. My score went down quite a bit, and I was so upset at Amex for not telling me when I was trying to cancel that old card. I would have just kept it and not used it.


If you close a particularly young card, it can also bring your score up if the others are older. Last I looked it used an average for the age of all your credit lines.


That's why I use a prepaid one. Although, that's mostly for free trials.


> non-breaking spaces, word joiners, and other similar HTML entities

Non-breaking spaces in some fonts are actually a different size than normal spaces, and most copy doesn't contain entities. Better for all if we can adjust the display of the text without programmers changing content.


> adjust the display of the text without programmers changing content

It’s this awkward and awesome place where content and appearance meet. Whoever wrote the headline probably knows the exact meaning they wanted to convey, and ideally should have control over where the line would wrap just as they would expect to have a say in word emphasis or punctuation.


> most copy doesn't contain entities

It doesn't need to contain entities. GP is not correct to refer to these characters as "HTML entities", which are just ways to conveniently express the characters in HTML. In fact these characters are Unicode characters just like all the other characters in the copy.


There are JS plugins for it, example: https://opensource.adobe.com/balance-text/

There are also the CSS properties `widows` and `orphans`, they behave a bit differently than "the text is rendered so that the amount of text on each line is about the same."
