And even that isn't going to work correctly in all cases if you just ignore the Earth's curvature.

I guess submitter thought it wasn't a good title for HN purposes too, and so he went with the subtitle rather than inventing his own. So nobody intended clickbait.

The actual title on the article is "Lichess & Scala 3". Whoever posted it to HN decided to go with the title of the first section of the article.

It's so annoying that the moment you finally get to mark it done, you just died a moment before and can't anymore.

Things like ecosystem services or quality of life are not part of the GDP number . It only counts how much money changes hands.

But I was asking it for rhyming words in Dutch (because of Sinterklaas), and it suggested words that would rhyme if pronounced as English...

Also when programming, I run into small things four or five times a day, that I used to Google for, maybe search Stack Overflow. But there is a lot of blog spam to wade through and finding the right search terms is hard. Now I just ask Chat

Absolutely not, I want to stick to the speed limit (or go slower, 100km/h is fine). It's much easier to do that if everyone else is forced to do it too.

His agent would have told him to at least deal with the contract before doing the work, I think.

by Scarblac 4y ago
He even had an agent. He realizes he should have just let the agent handle it. And then when they come back for the contract in 2014, he just does it again! Still, thought this was very well written, and he's not assigning them the bla

I was frustrated trying something with Mapbox today and asked GPT to do it... And it returned fine react-mapboxgl code that was mostly correct. Got me a bit more angry. Then I asked for the same "but as Dutch song lyrics"... And g

ChatGPT doesn't have much trouble writing in different languages (eg asking for "the same but In Dutch" seems to work well most of the time) which would be harder with hardcoded language rules, I think.

Yes, they have no other income.

I never ride racing bikes, so forgive me. But it's still always slightly harder to quickly put a foot on the ground than without, I assume?

No, because that wasn't necessary on the Netherlands either, and are streets were never as wide as US streets. Just make the streets smaller, with fewer, narrower lanes. It slows down the cars and makes bicycles look better in comparis

by Scarblac 4y ago
Well, per capita is pretty meaningless, as the Dutch ride so much more per person. Anyway there should be more discussion about what kind of bicycle. Racing bikes go fast, your feet are in toeclips, you're in a bent down position - t

And if the error message is really incomprehensible, you missed closing something on the previous line.

And those applications will let more work be done by fewer people, show people more effective ads, and make the rich richer in myriad other ways.

1.e4 may well be the best move, 1.e3 is a lot safer. Edit: I didn't read the fine print. First moves are exempt.

There will be opening theory soon, and it will be essential in many cases. For instance after 1.e3 e6 2.Qh5, White threatens Qxf7+ which would force black to play the top engine move. Then 2...g6 3.Qxg6 is one idea -- but there are two re

> in that the specifications and different functional units are glued together using lawyers. Exactly! And it all runs on the invisible hand of the free market.

I'm not decided on that. On the one hand, sure, blockchain should be involved! But the single thing per company requirement would mean that the company could do nothing else but a blockchain with nothing on it. But it does sound entici

It's as I've always said, every function ("unit") should be responsible for a single thing, and it must be developed by an independent company with no knowledge of the other companies involved. Otherwise you just can&#x2

That depends on what your contract says, I definitely get paid for x hours of work.
