When I search for Ireland I get hits for "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" AND Ireland. When I'm searching for work in Ireland I'm definitely NOT searching for work in NI, as it's a different co

Why would a dating app even need this information in the first place?

I host my personal mail with Migadu, they have some pretty compelling so-cheap-it's-free options available. These days I feel more comfortable paying for my email service than using some free service. I used to be on google workspace,

1. As far as I know there is no keyboard layout (especially for English), that has an em-dash key, they all have hyphen/minus. 2. As far as I know, only MS Word will auto-correct the use of a hyphen to an em-dash. In all other instance

I believe you. I'm probably the worst type of buyer to answer these questions. I don't do fomo-based shopping at all. Whn I buy something I buy entirely based on it's merit alone. Sorry!

A 'toast message' is a little popup that contains information for the user. For some weird reason a lot of standard UX patterns are named after food. Hamburger menu, kebab menu, toast message, chips/pills, snackbar etc etc

I've seen similar 'innovations' on other e-commerce sites. There is zero reason for me to believe that the statistic it's showing is real, and my first reaction is always to try and dismiss/remove it because it&#x27

People say this, yet my Series X is by far the best expense from my entertainment budget by far. That combined with game pass permium is unreal value for money. I've maybe bought 4 games at full price in the 4 years since I got it. I (

It's really simple in my opinion. Many people (not just Americans) regard the term "freedom of speech" to mean the following: 1. I am free to say what I want, when I want to, to whomever I want to say it. My speech deserve to

Generally parking far away from your destination and walking the last mile or two is such a simple and effective way to get yourself walking I'm surprised it's not a more popular life hack. You are sitting comfortable in your car,

I believe services are specifically excluded to play into the narrative of there being a trade deficit.

There is a dramatic difference in taste in bread between old starter and fresh starter though. Restoring from a backup is also much faster than creating a starter from scratch.

My wife always keeps a bottle of discard in the back of the fridge. Sometimes we accidentally kill the main starter, and it can always be revived from this backup.

You might be right. I saw a survey somewhere (can't find it now), where Americans were asked about working in factories. Majority said that USA will be better if more people started working in factories, but a minority said USA will be

The future of public transportation is buses and trains. Any other solution that involves wrapping individual humans in a steel bubble 10x the size is woefully inefficient and wasteful. No matter how well they self drive. For every bus you

With the new wexford-wales interconnect that went live last month, and another one planned from Cork (?) to France things might be even easier in the near future I reckon.

Cloud is basically an infinitely scalable mainframe. You have dedicated compute optimised for specific workloads, and you string these together in a configuration that makes sense for your requirements. If you understand the benefits of clo

Since moving to Ireland 2 years ago, I've maybe had to reach for my wallet maybe 5 times in total. These days it remains in the car or forgotten at home. I pay for evertything with my phone.

Based on my very very limited understanding of how LLMs work, surely they don't "prefer" anything, and just use what they have been trained on? Presumably there is a lot more public info about, and code in Javascript and Pyth

Methinks the word "just" in "just capture CO2" is doing a lot more work than you think.

HN is not much different (or better) in my opinion I dislike the voting mechanism here. It incentivises me to optimize my posting to things that will maximise the votes, rather than things I think will add value to the community, even if it

Reddit is incredibly echo-chamber-y for me, the voting and karma system optimizes for the wrong type of content I feel. I've tried to engage with a few niche-interest subreddits (homebrewing, electronics, musical instruments) over the
