We can say a little more; in traditional grammar, aspect is not a recognized category. Thus, while it is very clear that Latin has a system of three tenses, two aspects, and three moods (counting imperative), traditional grammar assigns it six "tenses":

+---------+-----------+------------------+
| tense | aspect | traditional name |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| present | imperfect | present |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| past | imperfect | imperfect |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| future | imperfect | future |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| present | perfect | perfect |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| past | perfect | pluperfect |
+---------+-----------+------------------+
| future | perfect | future perfect |
+---------+-----------+------------------+

This is the reason for calling perfect a "tense": it's traditional. But this model won't stand up to analysis. Interestingly, the Romans themselves do not seem to have used it; where we refer to "pluperfect tense", they referred to the "past perfect-er tense", identifying both tense and aspect (admittedly, both under the name "tense", or rather "time"). I don't know when the conceptual distinction was lost.
Very brave author. I have contributed a few patches to WINDRES to fix some bugs and it's a strange tool / concept.

I'm going to guess that Microsoft won't wish to fix any bugs in RC.EXE, since that would break some existing resource scripts, and at this point backwards compatibility is much more important than dealing with quirks.

He and his son would have faced severe discrimination, wouldn’t even be allowed to hold public office and technically his descendants wouldn’t even emigrate to the Americans had it been publicly known that he was a descendant of Jewish converts (regardless of his religious views).

This no longer happens for services that have accounts that follow a social media style. For such accounts, employees are expected their own accounts (presumably with followers, reputation etc.) and keep it after leaving the company. For real social media, this is probably fine, but I don't understand why we accept this model for Github and Gitlab (and Sourceware before that). Even from an employee perspective, it's not great because it makes it unclear who owns what. Especially with services like Github which have rules about how many accounts you can create for one person, and under what circumstances.

I have no idea how this is supposed to work in practice for Github and Gitlab, where people gain access to non-public areas of those websites, but they are still expected to use their own accounts which they keep after leaving their employer.

(The enterprise-managed Github accounts do not address this because they prevent public, upstream collaboration.)

> It’s very weird how people talk about roads as a sort of universal public good whose construction and maintenance needs to be financed by local authorities and taxation.

Because you need roads to e.g., get produce from a farm to the grocery store. You can’t have a functioning society that doesn’t involve roadways for moving people and goods the “last mile.”
However, the blogs or newspapers or print outlets that used to hire them hired them because you couldn’t- it was a differentiator.

That differentiator is gone, and as such won’t pay for it anymore. They’ll just use the same AI as you.

> If the plugin had Pro options* then are those closed source and so not available to Wordpress in their fork of the codebase? It's not clear.

Because WordPress is licensed under the GPL, all plugins must be licensed under GPL-compatible licenses. This applies to ACF Pro as well.
RuntimeHub.com is going to be an essential tool for the modern software development ecosystem. It addresses key inefficiencies in software learning and comprehension, particularly for open-source projects, by offering a dynamic, intuitive, and interactive platform that visualizes the entire runtime execution process of various programs, covering platforms such as Android, Linux, Windows, Web and Blockchain.
It's maybe an issue with me but I've been on blogotext where I would post stuff, then on Hugo but the tooling was taking most of my energy and the version upgrade path was a blocker for my themes, plugins, etc. I was clueless how to solve those pains without coding and opening issues. Then I tried zola but it was buggy, and I had to learn Rust to fix one basic issue which took days of rewriting code review after review.
And having yet to setup a pipeline and fight to make that work, just too much for me.
Then I went to WordPress and didn't had to mess with trying to make the blogging system adapt to my needs with code, it was just flexible enough with a nice WYSIWYG editor and admin panel and plugins. No mess with ci/cd build times, manual upgrades and reading language specs and opening issues to make things work. Those things were not needed to just blog.

Today I'm still on WordPress and none of the SSG feel simple enough to me.

Git, markdown, build pipelines... Code editor. It's all fun for work and collaboration with devs but just out of interest for blogging.
Also they mostly generate invalid HTML and lack features or have custom templates. And next upgrade could break everything.

I prefer something that is helping me focus on blogging for long term without upgrade maintenance cost and without fearing platform dies.
But yeah WordPress is not perfect and I'm considering maybe to glue a few tools together in the long run and make my edits in pure txt or HTML for which no existing SSG or WordPress are needed.
You don't want to too strict technical validations on your helpdesk contact points, though. It's supposed to be reachable when things are broken. So it's not as easy as just reconfiguring incoming mail relays. You might need separate domains for extended validation, or a reliable (!) way to relay authentication results to those mail endpoints that need it. Come to think of it, presenting email validation results to helpdesk staff might be a good idea in general.

Technically, any value > 0 is ‘closer to arrythmia’, but yeah that is a pretty high value. 60 bpm == 1 beat per second (if everything is perfect), so if the HRV is 850 ms and their heart rate is around 60 bpm that is what - 85% variation?

If that is ‘consistent’, I’m not even sure what that EKG would even look like, but ‘regular’ seems unlikely. I’m honestly not even actually sure what ‘beat’ would mean when it’s > 50% variation.

Okay thank you, makes sense. I am however been thinking that there are rarely any junior jobs. I guess that boils down to capitalism. It probably isn't worth hiring unless people are at a certain level.

Recruitment is pretty binary in that sense and given the nature of our work, I don't blame them either.
Similar story with customer service on the railway in the UK. Too common now is for them to wash their hands of the customers, or just tell you to pay and hopefully reclaim. Nobody has authority to spend money.

They have almost brainwashed the public that no event is ever the railway's responsibility to deal with just because they aren't the root cause.

The are enough laws and contractual provisions to help the customer but they are being blatantly ignored, and the government is allowing it for cost saving purposes.

My introduction to Lisp was through SICP and Scheme so I used to be in favour of Lisp-1, but having used Common Lisp for a while now I've changed my mind. Treating a function as a value is easy enough:

Do give typst's syntax a try! I had the same worry as you but I now find typst's syntax more pleasant to write, and the resulting code is much more readable. Instead of

you get to write

1/(alpha - 1) "for" n in {1, ..., N}
I have a love-hate relationship with LaTeX... in 2016, I wrote my PhD with it, for wich I defined lots of helpers and commands.I used xetex for some obscure reasons I don't remember.The final result was beautiful but I dread opening any of those files. And it doesnt compile anymore.

Among all the systems (tools, languages, devices...) I exploited professinaly, LaTeX is the one that remains the most obscure and frustrating to me. I'm not sure why.

Which is notable why exactly? Surely both Columbus and his investors were hoping to return.

Columbus might have had Jewish ancestors a few generations back but I don’t think we can conclude anything else based on these findings. Especially not that he or his parents were actually practicing Jews.

> Security - ACF defined Post Type and Taxonomy metabox callbacks no longer have access to $_POST data. (Thanks to the Automattic Security Team for the disclosure)

If I was on that security team, I would be livid they used my team's name on this behavior.

If this was done by that security team, their ethics are disgusting, and likely non-salvageable...

Still looking for the security exploit worthy of a plugin takeover though.

edit; best I can figure tonight is it's some concern over CSRF, but they don't even sanitize $_GET nor $_SESSION, only _POST and _REQUEST... so either it's more complicated than it looks on the surface, or this "fix" is partial at best, and wasn't written by someone from security. (It's also possible or likely that I'm missing some context, it's been a long time since I've had to work on php)
In some cases pretending everything is ASCII is the sane thing to do. With Unicode, sorting and case conversion are neigh impossible to do correctly. While there are algorithms for collating codepoints into (extended) grapheme clusters, there is still a lot of freedom, so while there are wrong ways to do it there is no canonical right way.
They're definitely orders about the future. "Keep at it" has the present as context, "hold the line" is a bit ambiguous, "don't let it happen again" has the past as context, but they're all talking about the future.
Aren't such disputes about scope relatively common? Not sure what Hackerone can do about it.

For example, most Hackerone customers exclude denial-of-service issues because they don't want people to encourage to bring down their services with various kinds of flooding attacks. That doesn't mean that the same Hackerone customers (or their customers) wouldn't care about a single HTTP request bring down service for everyone for a couple of minutes. Email authentication issues are similar, I think: obviously on-path attacks against unencrypted email have to be out of scope, but if things are badly implemented that off-path attacks somehow work, too, then that really has to be fixed.

Of course, what you really shouldn't do as a Hackerone customer is using it as a complete replacement for your incoming security contact point. There are always going to be scope issues like that, or people unable to use Hackerone at all.
> Why is "present perfect tense" closer to a tense, but "learned past tense" is closer to a mood?

Are you thinking of these as exclusive categories? Every finite verb has a tense and a mood. That's the point of having separate terms; these are independent dimensions of the verb.

Theoretically, there could also be a "reported present" verb form, except that this is semantically impossible: any event that has been reported to you must have happened before the report did, and the report must have happened before you started talking about it, so reported events are stuck in the past.

It's possible, though, to imagine someone making a statement about reported information in the future, in which case the event would take place before the report, but possibly after I describe how I'm imagining the future. Would anything interesting happen in Turkish for this kind of sentence?

Early variants of starship will not be human rated. That will only happen once Starship has a proven track record. The is also no reason a human rated starship variant could not be built using the same safety systems seen with the dragon capsule.

It sounds like you are having trouble seeing merit in starship. Falcon 9, whilst great, is not going to the end of launch system development. SpaceX believes Starship will bring significant improvements/benefits. This process is no different to how Automobiles and aircraft have seen improvements to their capabilities over the years.
