I mostly play commander, and find the AI to be pretty dumb to be honest. That’s not saying it’s not fun! But I find that even with the AI using simple deck archetypes I usually have to put three of them on an enemy team before they hit mode

I can’t speak for controllers, but for wireless mice I’ve read that many issues are due to the very low voltages that they run at to extend battery life - the low voltage means that buttons + etc become much more susceptible to dirt and oxi

The way autocomplete works in browsers is absolutely infuriating. Because a bunch of misguided orgs went around disabling autocomplete on login fields, now browsers aggressively ignore attempts to disable it and there's no elegant way

As a designer, I think this is correct. The boring sans-serif logo is the “nobody ever got fired for buying IBM” of logo design.

Yeah, a CSS rotate is just a visual effect - it doesn’t change the item’s actual box size and therefore doesn’t cause page reflows. I suspect there’s something else happening here. It may be that it’s triggering a repaint of adjacent region

Health care professionals is a weird one, because while long shifts are dangerous, patient handover is also dangerous and there may be an argument that longer shifts means fewer handovers which could result in better patient outcomes.

Yes, this is a major point in the gospels and one of the things that was subversive at the time that's a bit lost on modern audiences. At the time, the prevailing belief was that good things happens to good people, and bad things happe

The other thing that doesn’t make sense to me here is Japan’s ISDB-T broadcasts are on 470-710 MHz, which seems like it would map even better to the length of mattress coils and bed frame parts than the longer wavelengths used in America.

I’m not saying the article is right (it sounds like nonsense to me) but you do get resonance at half and quarter lengths as well.

I think it would probably just be simpler to use a mattress with no springs, of which there are many on the market today.

That sounds fantastic for more technically sophisticated users… but I strongly suspect the reason banks continue to use phone, email, and SMS is that most users aren’t that technically sophisticated, and strongly want to use the (admittedly

Small indie artists will have contracts with Spotify. Larger artists with labels will have contracts with their labels, who will have contracts with Spotify. As you suspected, the labels typically take a ridiculous cut of streaming revenue.

Sorry, I’m failing to see the difference between this and what actually happens. They currently take 70% of their revenue and split it across artists by stream, and what I’m reading is that you’re proposing is that we take each subscriber’s

I don't follow. The federal government has effectively always forced businesses to do things, such as paying taxes. Furthermore, the businesses in question agreed to build this infrastructure in exchange for funding and government prot

There are fair use exemptions to copyright for providing access to works for individuals with disabilities, for which subtitles may qualify - but I'm not an expert.

Oh for sure, my problem is primarily one of misinformation. If we managed to solve the hallucination problem such that AI content was more reliable than a reasonably smart human I wouldn’t have a problem with it. But for now AI has a bad ha

Honestly that doesn’t bother me very much, so long as the script is human-written. YouTube has always had videos with TTS narration, and I’d rather be listening to that than an incomprehensible accent or $0.50 microphone. There’s one clever

No, but leaving your door open with a sign that says “Anything you want, $1” does excuse people ripping you off (which is more or less what happened here, the state traded something very valuable for something comparatively worthless). I’m

At a certain point though, I’m inclined to point my finger at the state for signing terrible business deals. Like, the 1995 water deal was so staggeringly poorly negotiated by the state that I find it hard to get too mad at the farmers that

Universal search in UI is cool, and I’m all for it, but it shouldn’t be the only/primary way of accessing tools as tool discoverability is very low. The author tries to deal with this by putting the a menu next to a search bar and putt

Generally agreed, but there does seem to be a small population of drivers behind the wheel of 1980s-ish-era Japanese cars that drive very aggressively. I suspect they watched too much Initial D.

While that’s an interesting idea, is there really any point in using anything beyond Cat 6 given the connectivity found on most devices today and for the foreseeable future? Terabit-supporting fiber is cool, but ultimately not that useful w

I believe it is solvable without JS - you can’t prevent the request from being created, but you can prevent the second submission for having any effect. You could add a hidden UUID to the form server side and only process any submission wit

To be clear, this isn’t Cambridge Analytica or spammer stuff. This was about publishing low-volume high-value content, and we didn’t have any sort of data gathering or analytics features.
