Many comments so far seem to imply (perhaps not intentionally) that this syntax was intended only on the "right side" of the URI, but you can think of it more as adding qualifier-like information to (potentially) each path segment. So in /com/foo/bar you could further qualify foo (perhaps as /com/foo;color=yellow/bar). This can be combined with a (definitionally trailing) query string as well. Someone noted that Spring implements some support for this; the Eclipse Foundation's Jersey (Java REST toolkit) does as well if I remember right.


That's how I use matrix params in one of my Angular projects - these are very handy to put segment filter params into instead of query params. When you have parallel routes (page/dialog) and filtering everywhere, URLs stay much easier to reason about.


This was the absolute golden age of Car and Driver. David E. Davis Jr. was the editor; he later departed to found Automobile magazine.


Interesting note: the JDK deliberately randomizes iteration order of certain immutable sets and maps (https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/jdk-23%2B37/src/java.bas...).


One thing many don't talk about is the social aspect of getting a concussion. An acquaintance has decided to try to do something about that: https://concussionbox.org/ (Disclaimer: no involvement/attachment with the site, just thought it was relevant here.)



Does this make Gates and Bezos the Lords of KoBold (hear our prayer)?


Put everything I possibly could into a Roth IRA starting at 21.


At 21, I needed just about every dime I had to live on. If I had worked as hard as I could without affecting my grades, I could maybe have saved $2k.

In an index fund for 40 years with an average rate of return, after inflation, it would be worth about $35k.

Not enough money to make any difference at all, and to save any more would have probably had a negative rate of return because it would have negativity impacted my job prospects.

Now that I make more than enough money to save for an early retirement, I’m glad I had the experiences I did rather than save every penny I could through my 20s.


i.e., Convert your 401(k)'s to IRA, then convert the IRA to Roth via the "backdoor" that is not subject to the annual limits.


You want to make sure you're using PYREX, not pyrex. They're different![1]

The biggest difference is that the latter is the only one you'll find in stores, at least in north america.


Unreal that this very misleading branding was allowed to continue.


Tivo.


AnyList (https://www.anylist.com/). Streamlines grocery shopping and the paid version is absolutely worth the money. ~$15/year for a family.


Love anylist - bummer about Google assistant dropping them. Almost enough to make me switch to alexa


Completely agree. We tried a number of others and settled on that.

We also use it as a quick todo list for things that don’t go into the family asana

Other note- asana, mostly for repeating and long term scheduled tasks has been a huge family boon for us


We have been using AnyList for what seems like 10+ years now and I, too, recommend it to anyone and everyone.

We had the pay-for version for a year or two but it works just fine without as well!
