If you can look at your TV instead of your laptop, I highly recommend using KDE Connect
A couple of years ago I was read news articles about heat waves so severe that birds were falling down the sky. Pretty apocalyptic. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/climate-and-people...
I used window managers for years, but the hurdle of actually configuring stuff not-related to the WM itself (like setting up dark mode) made me switch to a full-fledged desktop environment. Thanks for mentioning…
This is an insightful comment, but I feel like you omit the fact that LLMs often give out verifiably false information that can hurt the user or other people. It is true that this also happens on the Internet, but! When…
I wish the most popular software forge didn't include a bunch of other software solutions like issue tracking or forums. Having everything in one service definitely increases interoperability between those solutions,…
Massive strikes that are hard to contain got use the 8 hour work day, weekends and a lot of labor rights. Civil right movements won only because a huge portion of them were militant (back then even the National Rifle…
IMF forces countries to adopt austerity politics[1], causing lower economic activity and often leading to economy shrinkage[2], and forces countries to open their markets to foreign capital, which leads to surplus…
Start with the City Watch series of Discworld. If you like Guards! Guards! then you'll like the next books. After reading a couple of them I'd start branching into other series.
I definitely didn't expect this in a HN thread
They could use the heuristics to build a list of domains to block and then have someone review it. After doing it for a long time, they could build a neural model on top of that, and automate it. As I have said, the…
The issue with the 97% percent you arrived at is the implicit assumption that only people from the US read the article.
Just block the domain. At first, you can block manually, but we know Google doesn't like doing things that way. Fortunately, they have a lot of heuristics to find sites like that; usually the content is just copied from…
At first, I upovted zepolen's comment about there being no social contract, only license, but something bugged me about that, and I felt that I wasn't right. After thinking about it for a while, I think that you are…
Sorry for the off-topic, but your name an anagram for the word "throwaway" with letters sorted from alphabetically, while the other person you're talking with has the word "throwaway" in their nickname. I just wanted to…
I wholeheartedly agree with you. The importance of those people has been proven when, during the first waves of COVID, they stopped being called low wage workers, and instead words like essential workers were used much…
As I mentioned above - one or two clauses like that won't hurt performance, but I have seen situations, when bad CSS (a lot of *'s, too long selectors, a lot of dead and unused clauses) actually had a measurable impact…
> I remade a pretty interesting navigation menu purely with :not :checked :focused :hover etc, so pure html and css, thinking it would be more performant then my previous JS version. That sounds so cool! Do you have a…
Note that the owl selector is pretty slow when it comes to being processed by browsers. If you use it sparingly, it shouldn't be so bad, but leave it all over the place, and you'll see the impact
I'm not asking whether the expansion happened, but whether you think whether it happened because people in the US dislike each other, which is a completely different questions altogether
Are you sure this is what really happened? The US built cities like any other country on this planet, but the influx of immigrants and people's pursuit of wealth pushed them to settle new lands and establish new…
I don't think that is true. If you look at how larger residential areas looked in the States historically, you'll these placese were very livable, since there weee no cars. The main issue in the US is that at some point…

There is a lot of cruft in Chrome's engine that accumulated over the years. Meanwhile, Firefox had a lot of the engine logic rewritten from scratch, using Rust.
Aside from what NateEag said, React is one thing, but the tooling is a completely different topic. When it comes to building your frontend, there was grunt and gulp (that I'm aware of), now the tools that get most love…
Once I was asked to implement a system that applied password rules with a few heuristics. If the password was under 12 characters, then it required numbers, special characters and so on. Over that, it required only a…
