  • Some automatic conversion is fine.

    a=3+0.2

    print(“Hello {name}. You are {age} years old”)

    That kind of thing. But the principle of least surprise definitely applies. If you get to the point where you’re adding two booleans and a string, I feel like the language should at least say something. At least until the technology exists for it to physically reach out of your screen and slap you.

    Quality of HDR is very much dependent on the TV you have I think.

    I’m still rocking a 2017 LG OLED which are considered pretty good, but as you go down into LCDs and the cheaper brands, you’ll probably take a hit on image quality. Some TVs used to have a yellow pixel as well as red blue and green, so could even be that.

    HDR is less about the brightness (although they are brighter than older TVs) and more about colour and brightness accuracy.

    Somebody did this at our place.

    The poor cleaning ladies took one look, then went out for a ten minute fag break to draw straws. It had been done just before the weekend and this was a Tuesday, so they almost needed the pressure washer.

    They blamed one of the fat lads for it, but fat lads don’t hovershit. This was the work of a younger man, unaccustomed to the feeling of unfriendly porcelain upon his virgin cheeks. Suddenly caught short and needing to do his first workplace poo, but also unable to accept that his bottom might have to go where other bottoms had boldly gone before.
