Perhapsburg they are

In time-based pagination, the suggested fix to lots of data in a selected timespan is:

simply adding a limit to the amount of records returned (potentially via a query parameter) transparently solves it.

This means clients can't see all the results, unless you add a way to view other pages of data, which is just pagination again. Or is the intended design that clients view either the first x results (the default) or view all results?

The problem with articles like OPs and others is that they don't allow custom sorting, which is often a requirement, e.g. interfaces that present the data in a table, where column headers can be clicked to sort.

It's naïve to think that marketers have any interest in doing things ethically, unless there's a legal or business reason to do so.

At first I thought it was another safe with even more money, and I was wondering if I should get a magnet.

I was kinda hoping for another story about some clever compression bomb or similar to slow up the bot - after all, if it's hammering this little site it's surely doing the same to others, even if they haven't noticed yet. After the robots.txt was ignored I was sure, but I guess this mature, restrained response is probably the correct one *discontentedly kicks can down sepia street*

I'd say it's more like it demonstrates how quirky the requirements are that Haskell also failed to get it right. The error and the fix are both in Rust code.

Afraid I don't know, but please post the answer here if you do (particularly if you get the answer from somewhere un-indexable like Matrix).

Yeah, I was thinking it's like the "Voyager Has Left the Solar System" story - we've heard that several times over the years, and probably will again.

Russia is already using chemical weapons in Ukraine, although it seems to be CS gas instead of mustard gas (this is still illegal under the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1993 which Russia has signed).

Russia carried out 81 chemical attacks in December, according to an official statement by Ukraine's General Staff on December 27th. Ukrainian soldiers have reported attacks with mysterious chemicals, such as a “caustic and flammable gas” described to CNN reporters, and the RG-VO grenade which the General Staff say is filled with an “unknown chemical substance.” This brings the total number of claimed chemical attacks to 465. There is a real threat here, but it is not what it seems.

I don't like the thought of having my passwords and 2FA live in the same place - that seems to miss the point a bit.

I like it, and I think the simplicity means it'll be quite flexible.

It's too late though, scientists already had to rename the genes. Although of course there are other things that can trigger it, not just in science.
