It's time for lunch would idiomatically be something like "ήρθε η ώρα να φάμε μεσημεριανό" (it came the hour for us to eat lunch). For instantaneous time you use hour (ώρα) or στιγμή (moment). So there's actually three &

This is really cool! Seems relatively similar to PICO-8 but more configurable.

Honestly I think this is the most exciting thing, and I'm very glad to see support for it from the DE itself. Currently I think as someone else mentioned it's only GNOME that does it, otherwise you have to use hacky third party pr

If all the companies that are willing to hire you equally treat you like crap, you aren't really given much choice. In terms of entrepreneurship, it carries a ton of risk. People living paycheck-to-paycheck typically aren't able t

This is a fantasy. Voluntary contracts imply that workers have the option of not working for starvation wages, which in many cases is simply not true. If your options are to work a dead-end minwage job or, well, die on the street, is it rea

This is interesting, but the paper still notes that in most "real-life" applications people will likely still prefer gradient-boosted trees, just because you need to allocate significant computation to hyperparameter tuning even i

Out of those three examples you gave, Western Europe still wins on 2/3 (higher life expectancy, higher quality of life). Granted the second is subjective somewhat, but I believe most would agree. The first is objectively lower in the U

a) how are these regards cherry-picked? b) it doesn't no, you are right. However the "third world country with a gucci belt" phrase is intentionally tongue-in-cheek and used to call attention to the fact that the US is behind

I never understood what FLoC offers to users directly (rather than to advertisers) -- FLoC requires a user to opt into it, right? Why would I do this as a user, what incentive does Google give me?

Comparing all of these points against Western Europe, the US is objectively behind. There's your point of comparison. Western Europe has far more expansive worker protections (just look at "right-to-work" states, you can get

Interesting -- what kind of accent is it? Would it be most similar to the accent a German native speaker would have speaking Russian today?

As of right now, "tank man china" gives some results, but not the tank man photo. Looks like it's been scrubbed. Crazy.

It's clear that the system occasionally struggles in making coherent sentences that communicate actual meaning -- others have pointed this out well enough. I think what's occasionally lost in these types of criticisms of these sys

I understand the point you're trying to make, but frankly I'm not convinced that monopolies/oligopolic collusion aren't an inevitable end result of any ostensibly "competitive" market environment. Given that ca

I mean, this is the same thing that the whales are doing though. What's the difference? In both cases it's just mimicry.

I actually have an orthogonal issue, but I wonder if it's related. When I have an external monitor connected via a Thunderbolt dock, the device takes forever to wake from hibernation (that is to say when I've left it on sleep for

This is one of the things that turned me off from WSL: not sure if something has changed recently with WSL2, but for example installing Node deps would take forever on the old WSL, to the extent of ridiculousness and just not being worth

That is extremely strange. Weighing in from an iPhone XS here on the latest iOS, I cannot understand how it is humanly possible to type the numbers fast enough they aren't picked up. I just tried to do it, pressing 3+6+9= as fast as I

Couple of behavioral tweaks could make it more authentic -- for example when dragging windows I believe the default behavior was to show the only the outline in the new position, not the window contents as it's being moved -- I may be

Chrome has tons of extensions that do this, letting you do it on a per-site basis too. I use one to enforce a "dark mode" on HN actually!

Nah, I wish, you just learn how to implement quicksort in Java and stuff like that The only languages I saw during my degree were Java, C, Python, Perl, and a little bit of Prolog. And I finished my Bach last year.
