Assuming a deer with 43,000 calories, your math approximates to nearly 2700 calories/person/day, which seems like an awful lot for a family of 4. And the attitude in your comment toward the program seems to be "Why…
> A deer can feed a family of four for four days. That's all the calories there are in there. This is so wildly inaccurate that I can't believe you'd make this claim. You think a 90-150 lb animal has something like 10…
To run text-to-speech on my laptop, I've been using Justine Tunney's downloadable single executable Whisper file. I use it transcribe audio then copy into an LLM to get notes on whatever it is. Helps me decide to watch…
I installed Aider last week - it just started doing this prompt-write-run-ingest_errors-restart cycle. Using it with git you can also undo code changes if it goes wrong. It's free and open source. https://aider.chat/
Using Hugo to make a read-only API would be a great way to make an always-up API with minimal maintenance. Host on any static site host. - https://web.archive.org/web/20180530151717/https://forestry.... -…
1st problem: Scan gun for home center materials did not work as the system was momentarily down. 2nd problem: 2 barcodes on the product. Not sure which one of these is a "me" problem. You also misread my comment. Sounds…
I disagree with you. I've used self-checkout 4 times in 4 different stores in the last week and had a problem 2 out of 4 times. 50% success is not success. Every store is different: - Do they weigh stuff in the bagging…
Here are a few factors: - Deer populations are increasing. - There are no winter killoffs due to warming temperatures. - Invasive plants like Japanese barberry are becoming extremely common and create microclimates that…
This sounds like how most of us develop anyway. Then we fix that stuff.
Put your resume up on job sites! Even not-so-great-sounding contracts pay 50-65/hr, might be a confidence boost. Level up your skills on udemy, if necessary (wait for courses to be 80% off or whatever, happens…
It's due to the March 2023 Google core update. Basically, they do these updates periodically, which can cause swings in organic search traffic. Not a great article, but explains a core update:…
Dude! I just did that search and now I'm reading Miguel's blog. Good stuff! Thank you!
Along the lines of surveillance I heard this one: When you pass mass surveillance laws you are trusting the people in power now, but also the future people in power. This framing can make you think about many laws…
Some crane operators in NYC apparently make up to $500,000!! Kind of crazy that some skilled work pays so much. That may be fine, but makes me wonder if any planners/civil engineers/whatever are making anywhere close to…
I like the idea of trying to solve this problem! Here's an idea: - Require a photo of the author with a photo of gov-issued id. - Maybe require a dated piece of paper or a Clarkesworld word-of-the-day in the photo. - If…
Uh, I think you are confused about Hugo unless I'm missing something. It's a static site generator and is nothing like Wordpress. I've run Hugo sites behind nginx, caddy, and netlify with nary a problem.
I "fixed" this by using kapton tape to secure my RAM. Never had a problem. The mod in the link seems...risky. Kapton tape is the coppery-looking tape that tapes other stuff down inside a lot of electronics.…
Wow, you're not kidding! I checked ebay and saw one bid to $50 and another buy-it-now for $93. For a Pi Zero!
Thanks for your work on Caddy! Also, for those that don't know, Caddy also automates SSL certs (unlike nginx) and can render markdown files using templates [0]. [0]:…
Tachyons is a similar utility class framework, and a lot smaller at somewhere under 20kb, IIRC. https://tachyons.io/
100% agree. I have a content website with some tables that I compiled from carefully scouring forums, taking my own measurements, and from people emailing me new info. Well, Google just displays my tables in the search…
Alternatively, there is room for "incompetence, corruption or malfeasance" AND being underfunded or understaffed. I don't think there are any absolutes here.
There was an article here on HN some time ago about some enormous project in California (a bridge? a tunnel?). IIRC the state's engineering department was quite small and underfunded, and so they depended on the…
Too balance this perspective, let's remember that not all public workers are bad people. Many of them are also underfunded and understaffed, and don't have the lawyers and means of a rich corporation. The GP's…
The silly, pedantic takeaway for many in this thread seems to be "everyone in the city should put solar on their apartment roof and eschew modern life". It was actually "Life got better when I stopped watching Netflix…
