Google Confirms Play Store App Deletion—Now Just 6 Weeks Away
  • I think it is relatively trustworthy, and I have used it to install Youtube to be patched with ReVanced. I would still be a little cautious downloading a apk from any website, but apkmirror might be the safest option due to it's popularity. but still use F-Droid or similar if you have the option.

  • "readability" is subjective. much like how there is no objective definition of "clean code". i am not arguing that either option is more generally "readable", i am insisting that people use a common standard regardless of your opinion on it. a bad convention is better than no convention. i dont personally like a lot of syntax conventions in languages, whether that be non-4-space indenting, curly braces on a new line, or early-declared variables. but i follow these conventions for the sake of consistency within a codebase or language, simplicity on linter/formatter choice, and not muddling up the diffs for every file.

    if you want to use <br/> in a personal codebase, no-one is stopping you. i personally used to override every formatter to use 2-space indenting for example. but know that there is an official best practice, which you are not following. if you work in a shared codebase then PLEASE just follow whatever convention they have decided on, for the sake of everyone's sanity.

  • An explanation of this problem can be found on the official W3C HTML validator wiki.

    HTML parsers only allow this to stop pages breaking when developers make mistakes; see this Computerphile video. 'Able to be parsed correctly' is not the soul criterion for it a syntax being preferred, otherwise we would all leave our <p> elements unclosed.

    Yes, it is not "incorrect" to write <br/>, but it is widely considered bad practice. For one, it makes it inconsistent with XML. Linters will often even "correct" this for you.

    I personally find the official style (<br>) to be more readable, but this is a matter of personal opinion. Oh, and I used to have the same stance as you, but I also used to think that Python's whitespace-based syntax was superior...

    At the end of the day, regardless of anyone's opinion, we should come to SOME consensus...and considering that W3C already endorses <br>, we should use this style.

    How do you rank sums of single-digit numbers ?

    Sums with 0 or 1, or which are commutative forms of other sums are not included.

    I'm this close to visiting my "local" branch for all my banking.

    I'm lucky my banking app works (GrapheneOS), as it's now requiring 2FA with the app anytime I login on the browser. Can't use an actually secure form like TOTP. At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).

    Does anyone else remember this movie or am I going crazy?

    'The Third Lane' (2011)

    I have the DVD case but not the disc, and I'm sure I remember watching it years ago. But I cannot find anything about it online, and no-one I ask has heard of it.

    It was a comedy, and I think the plot was basically some guys on a roadtrip, but they accidently kill some hobo who was hitchhiking, and hilarity presumably ensues.

    Can someone please tell me they know or have this movie?

    It looks like the back cover of the DVD has been torn out, so possibly it is just a long-forgotten prank, and I just imagined watching it??

    Do you prefer CD-R or CD-RW for music?

    For those who use CDs for music, which writable CD type do you use, and why?

    Main differences:

    • CD-R can only be written once
    • CD-RW is more expensive

    Do you have a favorite Garfield comic?

    I know that a lot of Garfield comics are repetitive and basic, but there are a few unironically funny ones.
