The mannequins had the same names as the Aussie Rules team from the first season (The Yank Tank stuck in my head). I wonder if they'll make a reappearance since now the contestants (in theory) know their names.
100% the second one. It's the idiomatic way to do this in Rust, and it leaves you with an immutable object.
I personally like to move the short declarations together (i.e. body down with language_id (or both at the top)) but that's a minor quibble.
Others have answered, but the UK has been rabies free for over a century!
The British Isles (GB and Ireland) have been rabies free since the disease was eradicated in terrestrial animals in 1922.

Err, why? We know they're not rabid since it's the UK, so why not just ignore them?
Perhapsburg they are
Only if enough people do it. Then again, loads scrapers outside of AI already pretend to be normal browsers.
The phrasing of "First actual case of bug being found" definitely sounds like it's a reference to an existing term. Nowadays maybe people would say "a literal bug lol".
Edit: to be fair, OP doesn't say that Hopper invented the term
I had a "T-Mobile MDA Vario II" (HTC TyTN 300) which was similar, and also had a collapsible stylus which lived in a little hole on the bottom. It was Windows Mobile, but it was great having the keyboard fully accessible (without that extra bottom bit the G1 had).
It looked like this, just less German:
That's the first Android phone, the HTC Dream (or TMobile G1). I loved this phone, even if it was chronically underpowered.
What about proxies and the like? It might be less relevant in a world where most communication happens under TLS.
Makes a lot of sense - it's a GET with the body from POST (I know, there's more to it than that). Definitely cleaner than encoding a huge URL or query string.
However, we're still implementing IPv6, so how long until we could actually use this?

Thank you to linguist Gretchen McCulloch for teaching me about phonetic assimilation, and for teaching me that if you stand around in public reading texts from a linguist and murmuring example phrases to yourself, people will eventually ask if you're okay.

Sorry to make you memorize this random string of digits. If it helps, it can also double as a mnemonic for remembering your young relatives' birthdays, if they happened to have been born on February 5th, 2018.
While curious about the Centauri accent, I found this 2001 interview with Peter Jurasik (Londo Mollari) and Wortham Krimmer (Cartagia).
http://www.earth62.net/transcripts/jurasik22feb01.htm
The quick story about the accent, if I can tell you how I patchworked it together, is I was doing a play downtown, a Tennessee Williams play, and I worked really hard on a Memphis accent. I felt like I had really nailed it. But one L.A. critic nailed me and said, "That’s a terrible Memphis accent. That doesn’t sound like a Southern accent." I was really hurt. About that time was when "The Gathering," the pilot, showed up. I called Joe and said, "What do you want me to sound like?" He said, "Let him sound like whatever you want," so I purposely took a couple of different things. There’s a character who plays the parole officer in A Clockwork Orange, the guy who’s always saying, "And night-time is the best time, um, yes?" I took my Czechoslovakian grandmother. I had spent three consecutive summers in Ireland. I didn’t always take sounds; I took rhythms. Londo had a kind of musical thing.
The whole thing's worth a read, they seemed to be having fun.

Rosie's prize task was a worthy winner, brilliant entry.
I can't believe they actually went with the smoothie idea, especially after Baba's reaction.
"Creatures of habit, just like nuns." With humour like that, I'm assuming Alex enjoys cryptic crosswords.
Anyone find the mannequins' names familiar? I wonder if it was just a callback or if they'll appear again.
I like the idea that someone forgot to wear the hotdog outfit and brings it out for the final's studio task.
