This is really cool. I tried "waves in the style of Katsushika Hokusai" and got some really nice ones: [1] https://tilemaker.app/?id=vomihsemtfhifd6hjr3ovegyoy [2] https://tilemaker.app/?id=xhz6kd

My out-there pet theory: Russia made some weird looking (but non-threatening) drone and mimicked some Chinese flight path. Thus, hoping to stoke a bit more drama between the US and China after the balloon affair.

A slideshow and some toggle functionality is fine. But you don't need a react/vue etc framework for that, and 99% of websites fall within this requirement.

Let's make our content offering worse, start blocking account sharing and also increase our prices. Decreasing the value to their customers thrice is a bold strategy.. let's see how it plays out.

I think one major reason is the lesser extent to which this is a problem. I can't remember the last time I got spam calls. A year or two ago it was much worse, but even then I got maybe one a month on mobile and one a week on my landli

To me, having the right to have a child also means having the responsibility to raise it. How someone can be so selfish to want a child without the chance to actually raise it and be part of its live, is beyond my comprehension.

I gifted an Apple Watch this Christmas. I checked their site and saw that an iPhone was needed, but somehow thought any up-to-date iOS device would work. Since you can set up the watch for a family member (who doesn't have an iPhone) i

I don't want to wish someone the worst. But I wouldn't loose one second of sleep if all those people involved in delaying climate action got some karmic justice.

I really don't get this “both parties” attitude. There is no basis for that argument. There is a lot to criticize about Democrats, but they at least want to govern.

The "four pacemakers" where "every one of these workflows was separate from the other workflows" could be read like an argument for microservices, doesn't it? I assume it's harder to make software as independen

I sometimes use this approach actively. Think about a hard problem and multiple ways to tackle it. Then step back and let my subconscious sort out the rest. More often than not, a good solution (or part of it) either pops spontaneously into

I would argue for an AI (I wouldn't call these language models that, but fine) to be controlled they need to understand (or have similar “reasoning” properties). Just because we anthropomorphize these models doesn't mean there is

I had this same thought for a while, but I think the answer is simpler in reality. In my opinion, he has an ego problem, and his companies are his best way to feel important (or whatever emotion he craves). I don't know whether that wa

But that's just partially true. Sure, you can't test the whole system at once. But testing each station separately is totally doable. Seems like there was no oversight to check whether the claims made by the station were factual a

A lot of comments look at this from a political/party point of view, which is understandable. But could this also be looked at from a group survival point of view? Let's look at Ukraine right now. In the short-term a deal with Rus

If a 'heist' to steal such a key would be pulled off, adding credentials (or stealing them) to the update-server (even for a one-time update push) doesn't seem out of the realm of possibilities.
