The place for it is in screen reader software, for those occasions where proper human-written alt text is not available.

Speaking of flashbacks to almost 20 years ago, Paul Krugman used to talk about what he called Flatland and the Zoned Zone. The same forces were at work then, they've just gotten steadily worse and I guess as suburban sprawl took over across the land, almost every place in Canada where it makes any sense to build (and many where it doesn't) got itself to some extent "zoned."

After the financial crisis circa 2008 there was a high-profile international debate about which approach was best for banking regulation: Detailed legalistic rules that try to cover every possible situation, or rules that set forth simple principles to make clear the spirit of the law with the understanding that they might not cover everything and may even need to be violated in case of emergency. I'm not sure what Mark Carney had to say about it, but I suppose we can guess.

In other contexts it can be an interesting debate but when it comes to C-2 it seems beside the point. Regardless of which approach is preferred that bill in its most problematic parts lays out clear and simple principles which are themselves ill-considered, unconstitutional, and deeply out of step with the values Canadians expect our government to embody and respect..

Translation is something the LLMs are pretty good at. It makes sense to use them for it, though obviously it should be a separate product and not part of Firefox.

The rest looks completely useless to me.

In the early 2000s I actually thought made sense to buy a console, since not many games would run on linux.

Sure, but don't forget to include the basics such as the root name servers: Verisign(A), USC-ISI, Cogent, U of Maryland, NASA Ames, ISC, Defence Information Systems Agency, US Army Research Lab, Netnod, Verisign(J), RIPE, ICANN, WIDE

continued innovations from major players like Microsoft

MS using its massive reserves of innovation to acquire many of the major game studios.

Is there even a single OECD government that's firmly opposed to what Israel is doing, firmly opposed to what Russia is doing, and firmly opposed to fossil fuels? Asking for that doesn't seem like too much.

“encouraging” responsiveness to new legal guidance

i.e. they've been forced to stop one of the illegal things they were doing.

#!/bin/bash # Recursively rename everything in the current directory as necessary # to make it match the case of filenames in Skyrim's "Data" directory,

from=`pwd -P`

match_case() {
    cd "$2"
    find . | grep -v '^[.]$' > "$tmp"
    cd "$1"
    find . -maxdepth 1 | grep -v '^[.]$' > "$filez"
    for j in `cat $filez`; do
        if ( grep -i "^${j}$" $tmp ); then
            name=`grep -i "^${j}$" $tmp | head -1`
            if [ "${name}xx" != "${j}xx" ] ; then
                mv "$j" "$name"
            fi
        fi
    done

    # going recursiv
    find . -maxdepth 1 -type d | grep -v '^[.]$' > "$filez"
    for j in `cat $filez`; do
        if ( test -d "${2}/${j}" ) ; then
            match_case "${1}/${j}" "${2}/${j}"
        fi
    done
}
match_case $from $to
rm $tmp $filez

Similar things could be said about things like "real" and "official."
