I put together an e-book of 150+ tips for working with the native features of VS Code. Includes 450+ screenshots and all text is written by a human. AI was used only for creating the cover and doing some image edits.
I'm knee-deep in the tech newsletter niche and I've never seen an official Tailwind newsletter. The only one I subscribe to is a small, unofficial weekly newsletter by Vivian Guillen:
First time I'd seen this warning by SpamAssassin (via mail-tester). Apparently the phrase "100% guaranteed" (which was in an ad) is a major spam red flag.
Late response but as of this moment I see all comments with a "7 days ago" stamp. Not sure what you were seeing, but anyhow, thanks for your contributions to the thread.
Thanks. Yeah, that’s good to know that there’s nothing shady going on with the domains. It does seem very inexpensive when you factor in the domain and hosting, so I was curious if there’s any drawbacks.
I solved it but I have no idea why. The success modal blocks the board and I can’t even see what I’ve done right. It thinks “CG” is a word? Is that correct? I don’t seem to follow what the letters are supposed to accomplish here?
Neat list but I’m confused: Why do many of the words on the left use what appears to be a zero character for the letter “O”. I understand why the zeroes are on the right, they just seem out of place on the left. Some of the words (e.g. GLOBS) use a regular letter O but some seem to use a zero (0) (e.g GL0SS)?
I obviously cannot vouch for the safety of this extension, but I'll just post this quote from the VS Code docs:
> The Marketplace runs a virus scan on each extension package that's published to ensure its safety. The virus scan is run for each new extension and for each extension update. Until the scan is all clear, the extension won't be published in the Marketplace for public usage.
> A thoughtful production team could add a "spoiler block" to the ending of short matches
Yes, that's why I recommended in the article:
> Events that livestream sports or games where the result can be strongly implied by the video duration could append empty livestream time to all their videos.
And after writing the article, I was told by a friend that when AVP streams on their own website, they do in fact disguise the results with extra streaming time. So it does happen, but it would be nice if a large platform like YouTube took certain measures by default on certain types of videos.
I set up mail rules, or filters, that look for the content that appears in the subject line of the DMARC emails, and I just auto delete them using the rules. I use Thunderbird on Windows so you’d have to figure it out for your own mail client.
Haha, I’m definitely more of an early Weezer lover, but I find it sad how unappreciated the Green Album is. Might be their best melodies, but the overall vibe is not as good as Pinkerton (especially without Matt Sharp).
Well, apparently he’s double vaccinated so I don’t know how someone can call him anti vax. From what I’ve seen, he’s more or less pointing out scientific arguments against vaccinating children or even mandating it for healthy, low risk people. I don’t necessarily agree with what he says, but I don’t see a problem with getting another viewpoint from someone that’s evidently well educated in the field.
What about the questionable practices of Pfizer? Or any other vaccine maker? Do those things somehow discredit the value of the vaccines? Because I’m pretty sure the stuff you dug up on FLCCCA is pretty trivial by comparison:
> The point is that there wasn't a single canon, different sects of Jews had different canons.
You're attaching a lot of weight to a lot of different historical viewpoints. Of course you can find different sects of Jews with different canons. You can find different sects of Jews doing a lot of strange things including committing mass suicide.
However, the majority of the most recognized scholars and historians of the first few centuries C.E. do not consider the so-called apocryphal books as part of the Bible canon. Josephus, Jerome, Councils at Laodicea and Chalcedon, as well as numerous church Fathers (e.g. Justin Martyr, Melito, Origen, Hilary, Epiphanius, Gregory Nazianzus, Rufinus of Aquileia) testify to the closing of the canon outside of the apocryphal books.
> We know that many Greek-speaking early Christians accepted some of the pre-Christian Greek "apocryphal"/"deuterocanonical" works as canonical. Why did they do that?
It doesn't matter. A lot of your arguments hinge on finding obscure debates and controversies. So what if there was controversy among some? The general consensus, however, disagrees with those debates and controversies and finds them irrelevant.
> The canon did change. In the middle of the second century CE, the Pharisees still had multiple canons
You mean the same Pharisees about whom the the Jew, Jesus Christ, said: "Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition." (Matthew 15:6)
> And, if we consider other Jewish groups such as the Sadducees or the Qumran community, we find even more Jewish canons than that.
Again, do you mean the Sadducees whom Jesus and many first century Jews condemned? It's irrelevant to even consider any canon that contradicts the most well respected historians and scholars of those time periods. You refer to them as "canons" but they are no such thing. The Hebrew canon was well established by the time of Josephus and only a few obscure sources contradict that.
> And why do you dismiss it as 'some so-called "debate"'? It was a real debate, you can read the Mishnah for yourself
I dismiss it because it's irrevelant. In fact, it's about as relevant as you and I having this debate right now, because neither you or I can change the fact that the canon was well established before the 1st century CE.
> All the Holy Scriptures defile the hands.
You want me to take seriously a document that says that?
> Furthermore, this passage gives evidence that the same debate was active in the 1st century CE as well (and possibly even the 1st century BCE too), through Rabbi Shimon's reference to Bet Shammai and Bet Hillel.
Yes, it was very active -- among people who had no say in the matter and whose opinions didn't mean a whole lot until we decided to throw 20th century criticism into the mix.
Myth: The "soul" is something separate from the body.
Fact: The soul being a separate entity from the physical body did not come from Judaism or Christianity. In Genesis 2:7, the first man "became" a soul (Hebrew "Nephesh"[1]), he was not "given" a soul. The Old Testament teaches that the "soul" is the whole person. The Bible uses the word "soul" in reference to both humans and animals (Genesis chapter 1 and Revelation both do this). The Old Testament also teaches that the soul can die. See Ezekiel 18:4, 20.
Myth: Hell is a fiery place of torment to punish those who reject God.
Fact: There is no word "hell" in the original writings of the Bible. This was a later development. The idea that God punishes people for all eternity, essentially making him worse than Hitler, is not found in the Bible. In multiple places the Old Testament says that God does not condone burning your children in fire. See Jeremiah 7:31; 2 Kings 17:17; 2 Chronicles 28:3; Deuteronomy 12:29-31 for a few examples. When the New Testament speaks about "eternal fire", these are symbols or illustrations to demonstrate eternal destruction of the evil ones, not literal torment. Also, the place that Jesus said people would go for this "eternal fire" was called "Gehenna"[2] (not Hell) which in those days was just a garbage dump outside of Jerusalem.
Myth: The Devil's name is Lucifer.
Fact: The word "Lucifer"[3] comes from the Latin translation of Isaiah 14:12. It's simply a word that means "shining one", a word that was used to describe the King of Babylon at that time, not the Devil. The King's fall is similar to that of the Devil, but the Devil in the Bible is never referred to as "Lucifer".
