Shame on you APNews for not including any Hoiho memes

The term you want is "cross compile". I've developed simple programs for the Pi on Windows and it's simple enough to produce a static binary (using Rust, anyway). When extra dependencies come in it's better to develop on the same OS, but targeting different architectures is the easy bit.
Token-based string distances looks like exactly what I need for my current side project - I'm using Levenshtein but I should be comparing based on words, not characters.
I just need to figure out which (if any) of these does what I need.
Edit: looks like the Python version has that information: https://github.com/life4/textdistance?tab=readme-ov-file#algorithms
stacking prefixes is disallowed (e.g. 10 k km), and because using mega is both correct and more concise (e.g. 10 Mm).
If you're talking distances and you say Mm, I'm far more likely to assume you mean millimetres. It might be technically correct, but it's bad communication.
How did you find Leptos to work with? I never got further than the tutorial so I have yet to form a real opinion on it.
The first thing to happen is that any liquids (saliva, tears, blood) will start to boil in the very low pressure, but your body won't explode like in some films. This boiling will pull heat from your body causing your nose and mouth to nearly freeze.
Another film trope is that you freeze over, but you'll often overheat first since you can't radiate your heat away quickly enough (depending on if you're in sunlight or not).
Oh, you're right - somehow I missed seeing the entire bottom third of the image.
And they've highlighted the whole of the UK for "England". Scotland has the thistle, Wales has the daffodil and Wikipedia says that flax is widely used as a symbol of Northern Ireland.
I think of England's rose as red, because of the rugby.
Why are you quoting a US site for a case in China?

Thank you to linguist Gretchen McCulloch for teaching me about phonetic assimilation, and for teaching me that if you stand around in public reading texts from a linguist and murmuring example phrases to yourself, people will eventually ask if you're okay.

Sorry to make you memorize this random string of digits. If it helps, it can also double as a mnemonic for remembering your young relatives' birthdays, if they happened to have been born on February 5th, 2018.
While curious about the Centauri accent, I found this 2001 interview with Peter Jurasik (Londo Mollari) and Wortham Krimmer (Cartagia).

The quick story about the accent, if I can tell you how I patchworked it together, is I was doing a play downtown, a Tennessee Williams play, and I worked really hard on a Memphis accent. I felt like I had really nailed it. But one L.A. critic nailed me and said, "That’s a terrible Memphis accent. That doesn’t sound like a Southern accent." I was really hurt. About that time was when "The Gathering," the pilot, showed up. I called Joe and said, "What do you want me to sound like?" He said, "Let him sound like whatever you want," so I purposely took a couple of different things. There’s a character who plays the parole officer in A Clockwork Orange, the guy who’s always saying, "And night-time is the best time, um, yes?" I took my Czechoslovakian grandmother. I had spent three consecutive summers in Ireland. I didn’t always take sounds; I took rhythms. Londo had a kind of musical thing.
The whole thing's worth a read, they seemed to be having fun.

In the studio task, did Rosie just completely fluke into the right answer with a vaguely plausible reason?
