Sorry, isn't this running an open-source OS? The header has a link to a github with a non-commercial license[0]. If so, couldn't you just use the OS on non-premium-priced mini-PC hardware and never have to worry about them locking

Daaang! On the one hand, as someone developing a code-example custom element[0] that includes highlighting, this is kind of a "so close, but not quite" situation where I really wish this was something I could use for that, but it&

Could also be anti-immigration sentiment, because I'm from the US, but I traveled to Germany a few years before the pandemic and while there was only ever one German person whom ever gave me crap about English, there was indeed one and

That's kind of the point of all this. They force websites to enact the verification because they have leverage over businesses that they don't have over citizens, and then they expect that the citizens will hate it so much that th

Yep. As OP said: I meant the user could transcode the various versions on their machine and then upload each to the server. Sorry about the wording; I can see that it's vague.

Right on. Thanks for the consideration! I really appreciate you walking through that; it's an eye-opener! It seems like you not only deal with a considerable amount of five-minute-or-greater videos, but much higher quality than I was e

Since you seem like you have practical knowledge here, I hope you don't mind me asking: Would it change the equation, meaningfully, if you didn't offer any transcoding on the server and required users to run any transcoding they n

ah, easy enough then: mistaken inference on your part. > Are you referring to[...] I'm referring to critique, in general, for the former, and my specific two paragraphs of critique on the project - not the commentary - for the latte

What do game engines have to do with this? You're welcome to your counter-opinion about the design, but you haven't convinced me. I've played plenty of games with third-person views where the gameplay was quite conducive to r

Right? I'd love for some of them to still be around. Unfortunately, portfolio sites are ones that I find are often lost to time.

Very neat! I and completely respect the skill. I respect the effort even more! That said, it's not 'hands down, one of the coolest 3D websites', at least that I've seen. It's all "technical", very little &

I appreciate that this writeup takes care to call out use cases when they help with understanding! I do have a semi-unrelated question though: does using the recursive approach prevent it from being calculated efficiently on the GPU/co

That was the thing that got me blocked enough for it to stick. But it was right during the height of that meme, so I doubt it would go far now. Unless a bunch of people all started doing it or something. If you're looking for something

No, I described a way of getting blocked that I personally enjoyed. Haters (me) gonna hate, after all. I think the FSF should not be on Twitter at all. Sorry if I was unclear about that in my previous comment, but the first paragraph was me

You only need a placeholder if you think the platform matters enough to hold space for. For example: they don't have a placeholder on MySpace. But if your goal is to prevent other people from having the name altogether, the move I pers

oh well. it was cool while it lasted! I guess I'll figure out how to make deno do what I want, now.

by catapart 11mo ago
Same. I had a little library I wrote to wrap indexedDB and deno wouldn't even compile it because it referenced those browser apis. I'm sure it's a simple flag or config file property, or x, or y, or z, but the simple fact is,

Wow! That's a really great point of reference. I always knew text-based social media(ish) stuff should be "small", but I never had any idea if that meant a site like HN could store it's content in 1-2 TB, or if it was mo

At this point, I just assume anyone who advocates for the use of AI is actually just an output from some AI. Given that "human-sounding speech" is the thing that AI is most easily able to produce, and how many different AIs are ou

Oh, awesome! Yeah, this is a great example of something that I would have guessed would kind of be "over the line" being that it looks similar enough to be an issue. I'm glad it's not, though! But, either way, it's
