It's good to see websites acknowledging the grim irony that you need cookies to remember users' cookie preference. I'm surprised that there isn't a microformat specification for this yet. If one browser enabled users to blanket hide all of these I think others would follow.

In LSP, a position is represented as a line number and a column offset (in Unicode code units): https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#position This is pretty elegant. You'll get the correct line regardless of encoding bugs, and the editor already knows the line number so it's cheap to compute.
Specification
This document describes the 3.17.x version of the language server protocol. An implementation for node of the 3.17.x version of the protocol can be found here.

I still find C-style format strings to be more readable than Rust format strings. "Player %s has score %d" vs "Player {} has score {}". The former feels a little easier to visualise how it will look in practice. Have I missed anything? Every format string specification I've ever looked at is surprisingly big.

TIL that the HDMI specification is not public, so it's hard to write OSS drivers:
HDMI Forum Closing Public Specification Access Is Hurting Open-Source GPU Drivers - Phoronix
It's been recently elaborated why the likes of FreeSync support over HDMI aren't coming to the open-source drivers, at least not yet..
