You are entering Buddhism and philosophy territory with this take. At one point after the depression, you should arrive at "why should I feel bad that there's no purpose when I am a master of—and one with—the universe and can crea

Fixed width is what monospace is intended for and ligatures maintain that feature. Nobody would use them if they caused code typesetting issues.

You're correct that this is limited to manual harvesting but isn't that pretty common for partial shade crops?

All coding fonts that do this ensure that the ligatures still fit the same width as the characters that are being combined.

Can you really identify usability issues on something that is both a) just a concept and b) is meant to shift the work paradigm substantially? Local optimization for your existing workflow is not the intended goal of this exploratory projec

Right in the release: DuckAssist answers questions by scanning a specific set of sources — for now that’s usually Wikipedia, and occasionally related sites like Britannica — using DuckDuckGo’s active indexing. Because we’re using natural la

Yes it does: If you enter a question that can be answered by Wikipedia into our search box, DuckAssist may appear and use AI natural language technology to anonymously generate a brief, sourced summary of what it finds in Wikipedia — righ

At least here, they are specifically training it on just educational public sources. Seems like a respectable usage of the tech.

Could this just be the fact that air is less dense than water so (due to the densities of particulate) sensitivities must be tuned differently?

agree with the other replies but also one thing to add: the gaming market in PCs is still mostly in the big screen world. They couldn't go too small or risk making the games too small for what they were designed for. The magnifier feat

Perhaps this is true but the convention is no longer in use pedagogically.

This is hard for me too. If it's a big complicated thing, I try to recapitulate what they said which then leads to them feeling more listened to. That way, I stay busy and feel like I am engaged without trying to solution for them. If

Distributed program vs distributed computing . One is anything from MMORPGs to P2P to thin clients. The other is for heavy computations distributed across a network of task processing nodes.

How can it be unethical if this is how it's done across the board in the US? Meta's lawyers aren't bringing in some unheard of tactic here. This is par for the course. I'd love to hear some "ethical" means for

I am failing to see a separate niche here. There are only so many ways you can break down office productivity focus and still have a market to support you. Your team should accept the facts and stop trying to wiggle out of competing with yo
