After that build-up, I was hoping to see a toy implementation of a method or two for `MultiArrayList`.

My interpretation leans towards: Gmail Thinks I'm Lazy.

LLMs have made one thing clear: intellectual laziness is even more pervasive than we previously thought, even among "knowledge workers".

Sound systems do have an omnipresent "only as good as your weakest link" feeling.

A lossless source (or analog, whatever your preference) and great speakers/amps can't overcome a bad sounding room - or a piece of music that was mixed/mastered poorly.

But MP3 players have proven that adding another weak link can still enshittify more.

California is among the US states with the highest income inequality.

All technology, no matter how undesirable it once felt, eventually becomes nostalgic for somebody.

It's funny how they specifically use the phrase "output that follows real-world physics" to describe the marble rolling video. At the end of the zigzag track, the marble jumps up for no reason. In a couple of other places it speeds up with no apparent energy source. It's still an amazing result, but they could have picked a better example for this claim!

Agree. California peaches are horrible. Southern peaches (Georgia, Carolinas) are indescribably better.

I love California, but it's funny/sad the extent to which many Californians deny that other parts of the USA have us beat in some regards.

White peaches in California in stone fruit season are delicious. Pluots also pretty darn good. Freestone peaches in Niagara are the best on the continent bar none. Georgia has pretty good peaches probably on par or maybe a bit better than california, but smaller and mixed bag whenever I have had them in June.

I'm not a Haskell programmer, but from my limited awareness: Wouldn't they want to encode the restriction that April 31 doesn't exist directly in the type system instead of using raw integers for the underlying struct?

A very specific shortcoming of this implementation is indeed "Day of Month" and "Month of Year" aren't given their own types! The type specification should likely be applied all the way down! I felt the examples conveyed the point well enough and it was shorter in many cases.

Routing games like Mini Metro/Motorways, Freeways, and Fly Corp are not quite puzzle games in the traditional sense, but I'd definitely encourage any puzzle fans to try them.

I knew that adding sriracha and hoisin was considered somewhat gauche / insulting to the chef. But I was surprised to see no mention of Basil, since every pho shop in the USA provides it. Is that also nontraditional? I really like it...
