  • I'm definitely in the "for almost everything" camp. It's less ambiguous especially when you consider the DD/MM vs MM/DD nonsense between US dates vs elsewhere. Pretty much the only time I don't use ISO-8601 is when I'm using non-numeric month names like when saying a date out loud.

  • Chrome Rocks /s
  • And it wasn't just a 4KB "stick" of RAM or something, it was literally magnetic rings threaded onto wires called Magentic Core Memory. Further, 4 KB implies that it was 4096 bytes, but it was actually 2048 "words" consisting of 15-bits (+1 parity bit) [source]. 2048 words requiring 16 bits each means 32,768 magnetic rings weaved onto tiny wires. Oh, and another fun detail about magnetic core memory is that if you read a value, I.e check to see if one of those magnetic rings is set to 0 or 1, that is a destructive operation. So if you wanted to read without deleting, you have to read and then immediately rewrite.

  • Cocaine found in White House sparks brief evacuation
  • Maybe a dumb question, but why would this warrant an evacuation? I get that it's contraband, but it's drugs, not a weapon. Unless they thought since one disallowed thing made it's way in that there could be other stuff (weapons) as well?

    Edit: or maybe they thought it could be anthrax at first, which makes much more sense as to why they would evacuate

  • Subscribing to a community from another instance always shows "Subscribe Pending". Is this a bug?
  • It is a known bug. I tried to find the source but was not able to to find it again. From what I recall, when it says "Subscribe Pending" you are subscribed, it's just a display issue and should be fixed next release. I'll update if I can find the source

    Edit: still not the source I was remembering, but here is an open GitHub issue for this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1315
