Was it that the PDF produced by latex was less OCR friendly than the word one, or just that you didn’t submit the PDF at all most of the time?
I guess if you trained a program to OCR PDFs that are produced by word it might get really good at that and less good at PDFs from other sources.
I’m curious if your CV font was computer modern?
People are mostly talking about what a bunch of idiots they are though.
This lot look like they were cast by the daily mail, they couldn’t be more of a caricature. It is absolutely not effective communication.
On the one hand, this is embarrassing for Russia, but on the other hand the UK’s Trident nuclear deterrent failed a couple of times in a row over the last few years, so I’m not going to get too excited about it.
It could go that way, but on the other hand they could be more like MorningLightMountain in Peter Hamilton’s Pandora’s Star, i.e. fascists who exterminate every other organism that competes with them for resources.
Great book if you haven’t read it!
Those are also good reasons, i.e. more than just “I disagree”
It’s supposed to be for bad faith posts/comments not just for disagreement
Damn, I’m in the UK so no easy way to go to the same restaurant/chain!
In which country?
People keep saying it’s nice, but I’ve never had any good stuff. I would try it again if thought there was a reasonable chance I’d like it!
The irony of the autistic person using a metaphor, and someone else taking it too literally. You have to laugh!
Sounds like what he actually said is that the market would crash if he got elected again…? Presumably he meant the opposite.
The man has never made much sense but this is absolute drivel.
I’m not going to get into the technical details of manifest v2 and v3, as I think it’s beside the point.
I think we can agree that given Google has announced the end of v2, recommending uBlock Origin on Chrome right now would be pretty mad, right?
Ublock on Firefox. Remember Google just kneecapped adblockers on Chrome!
KISS is great if you want something really simple that works well.
This plane needs a “No couches are left unattended in this vehicle” sticker.
And people who have no time install gentoo? Pull the other one :D
Checking in
I’m not from the US so sorry if this is a dumb question, but why would this push the court leftwards for 30+ years? Wouldn’t the republicans just pack the court at the next opportunity to swing it back in their favour?
I started in 2012, and it wasn’t that difficult. I’d say I do about 30mins of maintenance every other month. It took me a while to work out the config originally, but I wrote a guide afterwards which was really popular for other people doing the same thing (it’s quite out of date now but the principles are the same).
Started out using a raspberry pi (which was also hosting a website at the time) but when I moved house to somewhere with a worse internet connection I migrated to a VPS, so there is a cost but it’s not enormous, maybe £20/month.
Don’t even bother if you can’t use a static IP, because all your email will be bounced if your PTR record for the IP (reverse DNS record) doesn’t match your domain name.
It got a bit more complicated when people started adding extra layers of spam protection like SPF, DKIM and DMARC, but those are mostly set and forget.
Overall, I’d say it’s worth it but only because I find it quite interesting/fun.
A… slab? Of wine?
Is that a whole pallet or something?
