Follow the link, it’s worth it, I swear.

The way I see it there are two options:

1. You’re in a car and driving past that vehicle. If you don’t have your phone ready already, you won’t get it out in time and won’t be able to scan the code. You didn’t read the code and didn’t need to (because you weren’t rubbernecking).

2. You’re in a car with your phone already out (because you’re expecting a crash) or you’re a pedestrian who takes out their phone to film the crash site. You do read the code and you should see it, because you’re rubbernecking.

it’s not a hyperbole if some people might think that

Congratulations, you just defined hyperbole as non-existing, since for every proposition you can find someone who believes it.

Just accept that you didn’t get the joke and move on.

I believe this should work. At least some German emergency vehicles now come with filming protection.

The linked web page reads, “Attention! Rubbernecking kills!”

Best thing is when the preview loads, you click on it to view the larger version, and then the server decides it hates you.

Thanks for catching that. I fixed my comment.

I learned Prolog in university and it was instructive. But has anyone ever professionally used it?

doesn’t this definition lack a recursive case to ensure that the mother is either Eve or a descendent of Eve

We don’t see the definition of mother. It might already encode that Y is a person.

And there should probably be a father case in there as well?

While every person does also have a father, it’s completely redundant, since being a person can fully be described by [Edit: being having] a mother (or being Adam or Eve).

If these compounds can withstand one heating to 85°C, they can withstand another.

I don’t know about YouTube exactly, but when I was still using Telegram I noticed the following: When you’re scrolling back in your chat history long enough, you’ll get to a point where loading them a message takes 1–2 minutes. This indicates to me that these were stored on magnetic tape somewhere.

Does this hide the popup or does it just silently accept all tracking?

Outlook is a fucking PAID SERVICE. I get websites need to make money somehow but this is just plain greedy.

I didn’t know what XCode was, so I read the first three words of its Wikipedia article.

Xcode is Apple’s

And suddenly, all surprise vanished.

In my experience, the feeling of not having slept enough doesn’t vanish, no matter how long you sleep. Personal hypothesis: When you wake up, the sleeping hormones are still present in your body and make you not want to get up, whether you still need to sleep or not.

You only replied to yourself. That annoys no-one.

Wusstest du, dass Chip und Chap im Original Chip and Dale heißen? Das macht es etwas schwerer, nach diesem Screenshot zu suchen…

In computer science, “transparent” means that you don’t see something, i.e. internals are hidden. Like you don’t see glass.

Only pizza is not a basic foodstuff.

I don’t know what’s sadder: Dominoe’s offering to pay pizza over 6 weeks; people being so poor that they have to pay a pizza over 6 weeks; or people being so dumb that they still buy pizza that they have to pay over 6 weeks when they have no money.
