@jperlow No, they'll sell it off to a data broker firm in Bulgaria that doesn't disclose its client list
@kate And when creating SVG elements in JavaScript? Or is fixed nowadays?

Impressively, random forest classifiers trained solely on expression data performed nearly as well as models trained with intolerance metrics in predicting dominant (monoallelic) genes and outperformed them for recessive (biallelic) genes
@kate This is genial! What's the situation with the SVG XML namespace nowadays? When is needed?
@allenholub Is usually pretty funny how little the people who make these analogies know about house building, too.

function box() { t="$1xxxx";c=${2:-=}; echo ${t//?/$c}; echo "$c $1 $c"; echo ${t//?/$c}; } # Make box around text. By bartonski
I made an explanation of how this works a while ago here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZ85aMuf6c
@SteveLionel You might like it; has incredibly powerful macros, no types, and extremely interactive development, though nowadays is not widely used. More alive than BLISS though!
@mlliarm @elfprince13 The problem is not that a function has side effects.
@SteveLionel How do you like Forth?

@radehi @alexandru I do, other than the difficulty of figuring out that you had a missing dot somewhere. BLISS macros were incredibly powerful and could help you write clear and maintainable code. BLISS is far better than C for systems programming, in my opinion. ELUDOM

3D Bowl for the #BBCMicro / #AcornElectron. 447 bytes of compressed code, 539 bytes non-compressed.
@SteveLionel @alexandru Do you miss BLISS?
@shay @cemerick Well, obviously enough, those systems don't work.
Maybe we have to choose between banning certain information and enjoying liberal democracy. Shouldn't be controversial, really; is an extreme novelty, this idea that liberal democracy can coexist with prosecuting people for reading certain things.
@mfowler Might want to delete and repost this with an URL that isn't localhost:1963

@davew Oh wow, thanks.
@deshipu This looks vaguely like a Klann linkage but needs twice as many servos.
@davew What the feature is called?

The Yuv4Mpeg2 format (.Y4M) is a simple video format w/ an ASCII header and no compression.
I dissected a grayscale Y4M to first show the file structure, then a YUV (4:4:4) with a tiny 3x3 YUV plane for Y=0.5 as a small introduction to the YUV color space.
