    It's possible the last one uses "hours c.e." as a date format. I get 2023.8833... years ...

    LOL. Check out that bank's branch and commit to it if you like it.

    Likely that because there's no estimate for the delayed train it's incorrectly using 0 as the trains arrival time.

    So then it subtracts the second trains departure time from the first trains arrival time and gets a huge number that represents the second trains departure time in some unit(likely a float of days since 2nd Jan 1 C.E. since the time period looks to me like what happens in VB/ASP).

    I wonder how you could be 0.1 bytes over storage limit.

    Perhaps at that bank a pull-request is considered a bank robbery.

    "To facilitate the the expedient identification and verification of UK sort codes, it is recommended to utilise a sort code checker to ascertain the pertinent banking institution..." Ugh, that sentence makes me gag. I guess AIs are just as guilty as people of trying to sound smarter than they really are.

    I expect the magnitude is helpfully scaled for readability (kB, MB, GB, etc) but the fractional digits should have been set to 0 for "bytes". (along with changing the compare from >= to >, of course)

    Apart from firefox having clearly messed up the expression beyond belief, I don't see any indication of the lambdas being changed to Ls.

    Or at least it was Greek until Firefox thoughtfully translated all the lambdas and mus and sigmas in these probability formulas...

    "But the becomes distribution much flatter" should be used in all sorts of writing more often. It is such an enjoyable phrase to read.

    Are. Can. How. What. When. Where... That navbar is the real gem here!

    Next web app, I'll find an excuse for my navbar to read Mais Où Et Donc Or Ni Car !

    Dates are hard. Now hours are hard too.

    Admittedly I did my own WTF reading the Latest Comments on that first one: when I read about Power Banks on International flights, at first I was thinking "power bank" as in maybe a really big and powerful banking institution and was starting to get curious as to what the AI had to say about that one. Took me a minute to realize how I'd misread that.
    Words are hard. I'm just gonna go over there and well, maybe try working on adding a branch to my power bank using git ...
