Delphi has an amazing RAD environment. For building small, self-contained desktop apps (with cross-platform support!) it beats any other modern offering... if you can get past the ecosystem. The language and ecosystem very much show their

I've been thinking of jumping into this sooner rather than later because I see this becoming a Thing eventually. Are you enjoying it?

Fair argument, these devices (the Hiby R4, in particular, which is the one I have) are absolute tanks. Way too heavy and big to throw in your pocket for any reason, especially if you use a case. Still, it's nice to be able to (sort of)

I think Fiio and Hiby are the closest that exist today. They have dedicated hardware and physical buttons for the things listed in your comment. However, they do still ship with a custom Android OS and you need the touch screen to navigate

When I looked for a Plex alternative I settled on Emby. It still has some "premium" features but they're all just QOL, not necessary things. The base app is great and even has handy little features Plex doesn't, and so f

Do you honestly believe that DJs, particularly the very famous ones, just play CDs?

Curious if you've heard of or participated in NaNoGenMo[0] before. With such a corpus at your fingertips could be a fun little project; obviously, pure Markov generation wouldn't be quite sufficient but a good starting point maybe

I have a pet tool I use for conlang work for writing/worldbuilding that is built on Markov chains and I am smacking my forehead right now at how obvious this seems in hindsight. This is great advice, thank you.

This is the same setup I used for years with no issues, both KeePassXC and multiple Obsidian vaults, along with some other random files and folders. Syncthing is pretty much rock solid. Now I have the KeePassXC database stored on my NAS whi

The DSM isn't the only book, and is not the singular source of diagnosis around the world, so believing that because CPTSD is not in the DSM and therefore doesn't exist is also disingenuous. The ICD does have an entry for Complex

Having recently read through a handful of issues on their forums, they seems to brush aside a lot of things. It's a useful tool but the mod / dev team they have working with the community could use some training.

That was my experience as well. But it was interesting to see what was popular with other users, and I found a cool artist (yeule) this way.

I don't see how any of these could be considered "mystery" veggies in most contexts, let alone on pizza.

Outside of going back to school for another degree, how would this shift be possible?

You can find a condo cheaper and also much more expensive. There's also often a hidden "farang tax" where you will be charged more simply because they know you can pay more, regardless of the quality of the place. This is whe

Similar experience for me, except my imagery was influenced by the Brothers Hildebrandt. I collected all their cards and was obsessed with the detail in them.

I'm curious because I go through this experience a little more often than I'd like to admit, and typically end up frustrated and without any results (admittedly without using Kagi, yet). Did you just search for a phrase from the v

Going by land area isn't a great metric, since the US has a great deal of unpopulated or sparsely populated space. Per capita might be better, but not by much. But if you go "per city," the US has around 19,000 incorporated a

> The government recommends that free sugars – sugars added to food or drinks, and sugars found naturally in honey, syrups, and unsweetened fruit and vegetable juices, smoothies and purées – should not make up more than 5% of the energy

That's another fair point that specifically tomato-based products often have sugar, but also kind of missing the forest for the trees. For various reasons, we have a slew of foods that one might not expect to have added sugar (like l

That sounds really cool. Have you ever shared it?

Fair - I went back and re-edited enough times my original message got jumbled, and I had been thinking of pasta dishes you could buy, which almost invariably have HFCS, but absolutely correct plain pasta pretty much never does.

A small difference at small levels but one which obviously matters when it's shoved into countless foods without most people event realizing. It's not just in soda and candy; it's in bread, pasta, almost any processed food (c

For many writers and creative types I've read and talked to, the use of AI for pretty much any reason is equivalent to crossing the picket line. When so many models are trained on illegally-obtained data (libgen, etc.) and provide prof

This is an alarmingly reductionist statement that I cannot believe is made in good faith. If it somehow is, it's based on an abundance of ignorance that only highlights the importance of education. Are you genuinely arguing that LLM ou

BART crime is up over the past decade. People don't avoid BART because of that headline with the chainsaw man. They avoid it because of everyday crime and violence. I'm sure it's similar for many other metro transport options
