Hmm, I'm not saying it's a good idea, but what about a daemon that keeps a symlinked version of the entire jira environment up to date? So you have one jira-as-filesystem that's the raw files, but then for human…
Off-topic except that it's about gumroad - does anyone know of a proper abuse submission address or form for gumroad? I've received two spam emails from them in the past week, where a seller "sold" me something for $0,…
That's one of the difficult things when dealing with any sort of conspiracy theory or major discussion about fundamental issues with government - there _are_ significant issues, so straight dismissing "The Deep State"…
From the linked article: "Vanilla OS also checks for system updates weekly, by default. Users can change this to daily, weekly, or never if they choose. To minimize any impact on the user experience, the updater…
You may be interested in the youtube channel Project Farm then - I don't know if he's specifically tested Wiha screwdrivers, but Wiha performed well in his recent pliers test video[0]. [0]…
"No, 'c_water' means 'clean_water', it has nothing to do with the temperature, so that's why you got burnt; also 'gray water' has nothing to do with a positional encoding scheme, and 'garbage collection' is just a…
I was going to add on here that I thought electricity prices might be cheaper as well - I swear I saw recently some EU country was basically fully powered by renewable energy for some period of time, so electricity…
Another guess - just comparing Linode and OVHCloud quickly, my guess is that Linode focuses more on multi-VPS systems, while OVHCloud has a larger fleet of dedicated servers. If you have limited rack space and an…
All valid points, but I will say services don't help in this situation - I received an email from @redditmail.com recently, which is real and part of reddit but feels off on first glance. Couple that with gmail having…
Yeah, too recent to understand (though I've also been out of the loop a bit) - so thank you, that's...a good one.
Absolutely all valid points. I will say (because you specifically pointed out you haven't checked - I do enjoy clear and honest communication online) that Obsidian at least deals with straight Markdown files, so while…
That's one of the benefits of the body cams - it protects the police from false accusations while it protects the citizens from abuse. Your point about "absolutely highest impossible standards" is valid, though I'd say…
You might like Notion, Obsidian or similar note taking apps - using it as basically a stream-of-consciousness tool, recording what you've tested, those notes you mentioned, but also being able to embed code,…
Not trolling or attacking, but - how would criminals use higher standards of behavior to harass police? I don't propose to have any magic solutions or great insights, but if there's a proper series of reforms I don't…
I do love how just about every place that site is mentioned, even Google search results, it's in the format "X (formerly Twitter)".
Just make sure to not leave it in the driveway and it'll be fine.
For those who don't know the current records well, from Wikipedia[0]: The men's world record is 9.58 seconds, set by Jamaica's Usain Bolt in 2009, while the women's world record is 10.49 seconds, set by American…
Also, piezoelectric motors are a thing - sure, they're super tiny and for specific purposes (very fine movement), but beyond the fact that they use electricity to generate the vibrations that they then use for movement,…
I had a similar comment so I'll just add-on here - jitter definitely is a huge issue. If an interface is _consistently_ slow you know to slow down, space out actions and wait for visual confirmations; if an interface is…
Because I trust a random HN commenter more than what I can find on Google easily these days (though I did still search first of course)... why will they be a brick at the end of the year? If it's not for some strong…
That could probably be called a Heisenbug[0]: A bug that disappears or alters its behavior when one attempts to probe or isolate it. Though it depends on the cause - as others in this comment chain said, if it's just…
Based on the intonation, I'm guessing it's a "loyalty" card - it tracks your purchases, unlocks some level of default discounts, and will often accrue points you can then use for various purposes. Giant Eagle in the US…
"Also, if I don’t make the library async, less people on Hacker News will be mad at me, and that’s a number that should always go up, not down." - [insert some witty comment about reward functions here, I just love this…
I like the badge idea, though I think a central repo would be nice as well. Need to curate and update obviously. This would also work for my old idea of a "use this one, Grandma" generator - basically a way to print out…
Another literal answer to this question - spark testing. Take a sample to a grinder/belt sander and observe the sparks coming off - fairly crude, but you should be able to tell the difference between aluminum (no…
