Why is a judge allowed to compete?

That was pretty unreal to watch. So little drama, it was like it was a render.

It shows the top line, so you just read top to bottom (and can scroll if you want).

You can set it to show what you want; if I'm doing TDD I'll set it to show the test output, and then it'll show the warnings beneath it.

You can switch between the views with a key (T for tests (or N for nextest), C for clippy, etc

But yes, it's pretty similar to using watch.

My hope is that something like Servo gets good enough to be included, especially if it's tree-shakable so you can only include a subset of the codebase. I don't know if that's a goal for either projects, but it would be cool - the default webviews can be quite lacking so currently you need to use a restricted set of HTML/CSS/JS to guarantee compatibility.

I see! Great work, along with plenty of others in your post history.

Is this unedited, or did you bring out that contrast in post?

I miss The Register being a UK publication - I've never heard of any grandfather's axe, but I have heard of Trigger's broom.

btw, it's a rite of passage.

This is an amazing shot. Do you have any more information, like the artist?

I thought this was an Onion article when I read the title.

I've been in that maze! It's at Thorpe Park, and I went on an adult-only night with work. Baba's pace wasn't gentle - it would have been funny to have his attempt disqualified while in the hotdog.

And yeah - Finally we see someone else wear the hotdog! Interesting that it's both been on non-judged tasks; I wonder if its just a coincidence or if the contestants aren't allowed to do it for when Greg decides the points.

I like that they forced Rosie to make a smoothie so she didn't die trying to eat that envelope. Jack's wheelbarrow video was great, although that's mostly because the music made it.

I hadn't even understood the studio task by the time it finished; I'm assuming that they'd tested it with the crew beforehand and it had lasted a bit longer than that.

For anyone else wondering, they're not endangered, at least:

Figures for both species of pilot whales are unknown, and even though they are depleted in some areas, pilot whales are not considered to be endangered. There are likely to be almost a million long-finned pilot whales and at least 200,000 short-finned pilot whales worldwide.

My (ISO) keyboards do, under the Esc key. I guess you're in North America (or Australia) and have an ANSI layout.

I replied before your edit, so now I look like I can't read!

I had some artificial plants that were so convincing that it was a struggle to get people to stop watering them.

You might have been joking, but this is the best answer. All plants need a decent amount of light, so they either need a grow light or rotating out. Or just get a plastic one instead and save the poor thing a life of misery.

How did Andy the wizard go for (Costa del) Sol and not Seoul? Sol and soul aren't even homophones!

My other half came up with the idea of putting a pair of aces in your pocket ("pocket rockets").

As much of a cop out it is giving everyone max points, I'd have struggled to judge that art competition.

No-one played their hotdog card, er costume.

Jack wins this episode for me, partly for the line "not including the ones you take off lampposts"

I have a few home-made TUI apps, but nothing serious, so mostly it's just to muck around with a shell on my phone.

I don't see it in the default keymap and I don't know of anything that does similar so I guess it's needs a custom binding.

However, I've just noticed that if you paste something ending with a newline, Helix automatically pastes it as the next/previous line.

I knew that would be Squidge just from the title!
