A far greater (and less needlessly entrapping) commitment to that would be to drop all traffic from AWS. Watch the Internet break, and never contribute to Amazon’s bottom line. This person had no idea about your beliefs and you pick the rec

“Stroad” is the urbanism aficionado portmanteau of street and road; a common feature in North American urban and suburban design where the speeds, (lack of) curves and lane-count of roads are combined with the traffic lights and access to b

Thankfully minivans and station wagons do not suffer the same enormous blind spot problem the modern American truck is presently facing. That, and the standard five-seat arrangement can accommodate both parents and three kids, which is alre

Well sharts, most people don’t take dying too lightly either. Free care for the gravely infirm would be, to a point, the only perk that mattered at the exclusion of all others. Likewise with the possibility of total bankruptcy.

The displeasure is the the same as that from “not returning the shopping cart;” it isn’t illegal to do so and no one will punish you, but the community as a whole is collectively taken advantage of when you do so.

Sibling comment went for some twitter rebuttal, which isn’t appropriate here (or anywhere, really); a better reply is challenging the goodness, utility, or execution of those schemes themselves. His cars are expensive but poorly built for a

Physical changes to building codes and infrastructure have benefited not just those on wheelchairs, but just about everyone else with a wheeled thing for any other purpose. Parents pushing prams and strollers, people moving bikes into parki

I’ve very much enjoyed their libraries (though not their monorepo changelogs) in building our RN app. Seems like from the comments the situation we found ourselves in where “bare” react-native was the only option is the best way to interact

I’ll second that; the beta introduced massive keyboard issues related to stare reporting, dismissal and height.

This is featured the first time you ever bring up the software keyboard and then never again. You can see the behaviour by booting up a simulator. They do have an explainer, but it’s very easy to dismiss if you expected to just start typing

My second result: http://www.driveintheater.com/ Phenomenal, exactly as expected.

Perhaps, though the rate advance, as mentioned, seems headed in a direction entirely orthogonal to actual creative output that might threaten art-making. I’m in awe at the grammatical or visual fidelity of LLMs/GANs, but have yet to he

If your timeline for “not-too-distant” is measured in decades at the earliest and centuries otherwise, maybe. It doesn’t look like authentically enjoyable creative output is making nearly as many strides as summarization and code completion

That only mentions that it "would've made things worse," which doesn't actually answer the question.

Organize society into smaller morsels; this tendency of the centralized state will not be eradicated - states can be modelled as creatures seeking self-preservation, and knowledge into their citizens’ lives reads as something that will furt

Both this and secure DNS are born of the same ideological commitment against censorship. It is not their “fault,” governments aren’t entitled to this and guarding against pushes of this kind is not a blame game.

No, a human being comparing your face to a picture is entirely unlike facial recognition. The cop matching your face will not remember you for an arbitrarily long time (or indefinitely), cannot transmit the memory of your face to other cops

As an aside, I recently made Orion my default across my devices, and I wonder of paid browser is more viable than paid search.

Some of them certainly are, though I got the impression that the author might not understand Curtis or his work to any real degree. Characterizing him as a potential conservative (for effect)? whilst also noting his Graeber quote struck me

Huh, how odd; I had the opposite impression, as I came to write praise for how fun the writer was with this little story. Different strokes.

They want that particular kind of safety that comes from being under one’s boot: the incredibly reassuring, simple worldview that one can pour all their misgivings and praise for their lot in life into a singular place. “Bless the king, fo

Vacant homes held as investment/ properties built for the wrong market (for example: high-end, luxury, when demand warrants multi-family, middle income) can unfortunately keep general availability low and prices high.

The bill’s purpose, like other past attempts at erecting moats around Canadian media in an (always ill-fated) attempt to shield it from foreign competition, folds internet search and social media into “broadcasting,” where a portion of ad i

Botswana National Front to The Cheesecake factory was truly a wild ride, meandering between military hardware, old airplane designs, African social movements, some random celebrities, municipalities in Europe and more. Fun stuff.

If I built a platform that leveraged the name brand of another with a similar purpose, but charged for it when the original was a well-respected community tool, it would not be seen as good form. SoundCloud.help, say, a platform that levera

For what it’s worth, any sailing vessel beats any diesel container ship in ocean pollution. That, and ballast tank contamination, though that is not unique to any propulsion type, but instead to ship design.

The author is a woman, unusually for this sort of subject matter and terminology employed (alpha / beta males, etc).

Cowardice can be a factor, but even when it is, it stems from the fear of losing control over others’ behaviour. That control is in this case veiled with religion.

Curiously, their flaws balance out to neither being all that better. GPT-4 gets some words right, but changes the formal tone to something more casual, which doesn’t happen with Google’s translation. If it didn’t, it would probably be the b

Oh how I wish “Godot as a Library” was a thing in the same way that Unity may be embedded into another project. Dealing with Unity as our AR runtime has not been great.
