I don't know if this is true, but it seems plausible that the bulb could have asymmetric strength depending on the angle force is applied. Glass does weird things! Case in point: Prince Rupert's drops.

Edit: Alright, this seems to be a myth. https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/38262/can-a-lightbulb-once-inserted-into-your-mouth-be-safely-removed

If this tool runs in the browser, I bet it's using the WebUSB API, which Firefox doesn't appear to support: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/USB

Isn't that the same situation with extra steps?

I disagree that Star Wars is an example of HASO. It happened a long time ago in a galaxy far away. Those are aliens that just happen to look like humans!

That PR doesn't appear to make any sense. It modifies an include rule, so at best it would make Android Webview fail to compile.

They explain it in the next paragraph. Apparently they used it to buy food.

That being said, I don't see any citations here so it could all be bullshit.

Reminds me of that guy who repeatedly asked Verizon to confirm their price was X cents per byte, but ultimately was charged X dollars per byte.

What's wrong with list comprehensions? Do I just have Stockholm Syndrome at this point?

I would skip the square brackets and just use a generator expression: sum(3*n for n in range(5)).

I remember seeing "the customer is always right in matters of taste" on Reddit many times, but I can't find any real sources now. Maybe that was just an artifact of the echo chamber.
