The Frink is Good, the Unit is Evil • Hillel Wayne
One day Alan Eliasen read a fart joke and got so mad he invented a programming language. 20 years later Frink is one of the best special purpose languages for dealing with units. “But why do we need a language just for dealing with units?” Glad you asked! Intro to Units A unit is the physical property a number represents, like distance or time. We almost always are talking about SI units, or Système international.

Dates Float
In a lot of legacy code, I've come across "integer dates". It's a pretty common way to store dates in a compact format: an integer in the form "YYYYMMDD", e.g., 20200616 It's relatively compact, it remains human readable (unlike a Unix epoch). It's not too difficult to play with the modulus and rounding operators to pick it back into date parts, if you need to, though mostly we'd use something like this as an ID-like value, or for sorting. Thanks to Katie E I've learned about a new format: decimal years. The integer portion is the year, and the decimal portion is how far through that year you are, e.g. 2020.4547. This is frequently used in statistical modeling to manage time-series data. Once again, it's not meant to be parsed back into an actual date, but if you're careful, you can do it.

KOMENTÁŘ: Proč české děti nesnášejí češtinu aneb na prahu druhého obrození - iDNES.cz
Čeština je krásná řeč, mnohotvárná a dynamická, dá se v ní provolávat „Já se tam vrátím“ i s rapovými hvězdičkami zvracet všechny hnusy světa. Trpělivě snáší bulvární i youtuberkulózní banalizaci a myslí si své – takových už bylo, kdo z ní chtěli to či ono odkrájet, zapomenout či nahradit cizojazyčnem, a hle, je tu pořád stejně čilá jako v době kralické, pohrává si s novotvary, ale žádný nenechá rozbujet do zhoubné mohutnosti.

Češi při mluvení myslí jako počítač se sedmi procesory, říká Američan - iDNES.cz
Gavin Roy je jednatřicetiletý vystudovaný meteorolog. Den po získání doktorátu však s vědou skončil a začal se naplno věnovat jazykům. Už během studií učil sebe i ostatní portugalsky, před třemi lety se ale pustil i do češtiny. Nahrává o tom videa, kde vysvětluje kulturní rozdíly, co se mu na jazycích líbí, proč je podle něj čeština víc květnatá než složitá a taky proč se hned ptá, jestli si můžeme tykat.

Láska z tramvaje. Před osmi lety řidič srazil dívku, dnes spolu mají dvě děti
Psal se 4. duben 2012. Tehdy třiadvacetiletému řidiči tramvaje Vítu Malému zbývalo do konce směny pár desítek minut. S tramvají číslo 22 po páté hodině odpolední vjížděl do zastávky Břevnovský klášter. Naproti na zastávce stála také tramvaj, tak raději přibržďoval a zvonil. Přesto mu do dráhy vstoupila rusovlasá dívka. A reakce Víta Malého? Prošlápnul brzdu až do podlahy, zvonil a doufal, že neuslyší ránu. Ta ale nakonec přišla.
