Just a specific scenario, not a general 9000 times improvement.

Impossible to google what the fuck "ort" actually means, since it just searches for merge-sort instead of merge-ort. However, I'm not sure if this is intentional given this example command:
merge -s ort
Seems to be some stupid pun of the libiberty variety.

"Ostensibly Recursive's Twin", or "ort" for short.

I've seen him on Discord a bunch of times lately, so that's a good guess.

Pretty much whenever I'm gaming with the wife, using a private Discord server, I end up getting tons of Blakey notifications. I still haven't decided if that's a good or bad thing.

They seem to be allowing nudity so I guess it depends on how they define sexually explicit?
It worked out fine for Tumblr so I'm sure it'll ensure "the long-term sustainability of the platform" like they claim.

NC-17 vs X, maybe. Or maybe they'll drop to a cable porn standard.

It's not diverse enough until we also have ntfs, ext4 and zfs shaming. And reiser, but that's a garage topic probably.

If they take a chunk of CO2 production out by changing the process, who cares whether it manages to solve everything? (A good rule is to never worry about solving everything when there's something that you can solve in front of you.)

If I'm reading this right, the coal/carbon isn't primarily used to add carbon to the steel, but to remove the oxygen from the iron ore (reduction). Hybrit's using a different reduction process that uses hydrogen instead of coal.

A computer can't testify. The evidence is put in and a human expert would testify about what it means. Which, like any other expert testimony could be complete bullshit.

Hey, there is a world of difference between a Cessna and a Cessna. Can't you mention which Cessna?
It turns out it is still rather exceptional reportership as they did include a link to an official summary, which does identify the aircraft properly (as a C172N).
