Me in the late 90s: CSS is not a language!

Today: Holy crap, it's now Turing-complete.

"It's a deck of playing cards. How much more fun can it be, compared to the 50+ other solitaire games? And why would I want to play poker by myself?"

So I got a bit of money leftover after bills, and decided to get it anyway cause I haven't played anything fun this year. Went in blind without reading or watching any reviews.

Turns out it's NOT just your standard deck of playing cards. You can do all sorts of crazy things to your deck. Like playing illegal hands such as five-of-a-kind, or a flush house. It's a lot of fun.

Or, short of that… If you're whistleblowing on Boeing, you should go to Airbus and Lockheed and tell them, "it's in your best interest that I stay breathing".

all work in floats

We even have float16 / float8 now for low-accuracy hi-throughput work.

I really don’t know the Scottish English

If you think American v. British are at 80-90%, Scottish is around 30% and that's being generous 🙂

But then people will see how many bugs your code actually has, and how you actually can't be bothered fixing any of them!

I hate how soy has been used by bigots as an insult. Soy products are bloody delicious!

You may get a better answer if you follow the suggestion in the comment at the bottom of your source:

The syntax is specific to Perchance, a website that 99% of the general public have never heard of.

I don't know where you are, but painter's tape (or masking tape) comes in all sorts of colours. Including white.

The way I normally do it is the following. Strip the sleeve further back than you need (say, an inch). Untwist the 8 cores and separate them.

Arrange them in the right order (the extra length makes this easy) Flatten, pack them together, and pinch with your thumb and forefinger near the base.

Without letting go of the pinch, use your free hand to cut them to the correct length. Now that you have them flat between your fingers in the right order, it should be pretty straightforward to slide them into the connector.

Here's the announcement from perthchat.org

Ah. So the article that - after mentioning all the other scary stuff like ebola and HIV - concluded with 10 paragraphs basically saying how sars-cov-2 is quite dissimilar to them? How most other coronavirus infections are short-lived?

Or, "Covid-19 long-haulers are probably not dealing with the virus for months on end. Rather, … that the immune system is trying to repair the damage".

The one that ends with the quote that, for the majority of people, "It gets in, it gets out”?

The one that says nothing about the virus living dormant like shingles?

That's another claim begging for a source evidence, btw

I'm guessing you're receiving downvotes because that's such an extraordinary claim with no supporting evidence.

So I did a search and actually found this published journal article from July this year.

It did show both active viruses, and active immune responses in biopsied tongue cells of people with taste loss. Some even a year after infection. The activity is too small to be picked up by nasal swab PCR, but they're there.

But your claim of "you'll require medication to kill it completely" may not be entirely true. In all cases within the study, there was immune system activity in the tongue, and eventually the taste buds did recover.
