I've been passively on the hunt for a task manager for a couple weeks now. It seems everything points to Todoist for me. I love the idea of org mode but it's too much for my use case and I think a mobile app would be pretty helpfu

Some neat concepts here. Aside from the mostly cosmetic qol issues other commenters mention, I also wonder if the game will get repetitive. It's hard to tell with only the one level but I imagine there might be some recurring patterns

I just used this reference to make my chip-8 python interpreter a few months back. As others have said, there are some ambiguities that caused a few headaches for me. Add to that some broken roms, and the process ended up a lot harder than

I guess I don't understand what the point is? A100s are extremely powerful and generally used for ML or mining, right? But mining is already illegal in China and if the PRC wants to do military AI, I'm sure they're capable of

It really depends on how much learning you're up for. If you just want to refresh your skills and have the best chance of actually delivering something, go with what you know. If you're just making this because you're excited

This feels like a big win for privacy. I just hope that it's communicated well enough that users know to enable it when they send in their phone for repairs. I also wish there was a way to enable it if the touchscreen is inaccessible,

I still recall the outrage when Apple published their first app on Android and it turned out to be Move to IOS. It seems strange that it took so long for the opposite service to appear.

The theory is wonderful in its simplicity and I can see how that's appealing, but it doesn't feel correct to me. I don't think neurotypical people are really paying attention to everything they need to when talking to people

Just to add support to this sentiment, I am also pretty on the fence but I think a trackpoint would push me over. I've used Thinkpads for the last 7 years and I'm looking to buy a new laptop soon (in the next 1-2 years). If framew

Is it typical to spend so much on software subscriptions? I pay for Spotify and a cheap VPS if that counts but that's it. I figured the average person probably has one or two media subscriptions (Netflix, Disney, Spotify, etc) and noth

I don't find the case for historical preservation very compelling. Protecting a tunnel that nobody uses for anything isn't going to bring respect to the immigrants who died making it or their descendants. If that's the goal,

I'd love to know why Google has started ignoring quoted terms and treating them like normal words in a query. I put it in quotes because I wanted that exact phrase, not something that sounds similar. If that exact phrase doesn't e

Early reporting of any complex issue is likely to be full of falsehoods, usually by accident. This page is referencing when it's done intentionally to mislead.

Maybe not as impressive since it's a number, but I got mine in 2021. HN names aren't terribly competitive, it seems. Maybe it's due to the more mature culture here.

That would make total sense if it were correct. That's exactly how I think most people would intuit it However, that's exactly how it doesn't work and that's my point. The else clause is only ran if the loop DOESN'T

"else" usually means "instead of" or "otherwise" in those patterns. If the original case doesn't run, then the else case runs instead. In a for loop, the else clause only runs if the loop successfully comp
