Does that CSS rule let you browse through all the results for a particular search? For example, if I wanted to watch, say, all 50,000 videos of people reacting to the new Zelda, I could just keep scrolling?

I have a question for serious math nerds: are there degrees of never repeating? Like if you think of repetitiousness like escape velocity, as you get less repetitious the number of digits between repeats increases until it hits infinity, ak

People forget that just because a payment services is so entrenched and powerful that many people think of it more like a public utility doesn't mean it isn't just as amoral as any other company. Visa has shattered entire industri

Do you think that this warrants discretion? I don't, but the powers that be do. If you read the occasional submission with that site that documents HN's behaviors that aren't listed on an HN page, you'll see it lists

Why would he? If he's chosen not to disclose certain site behavior it's because he thinks it's for the good of the site.

To be fair, it won't look like the Firefox logo anymore when Firefox gets done changing its logo into an orange and purple smear.

by causi 3y ago
Can't say I'm a fan. The old logo was a bird carrying a letter, delivering it to you. The new one is a bird, but with a big furry tail, playing with a letter like a ball. It's just the Firefox logo but blue. You know just bec

Yeah I wish we got to see both instead of just the current balance. You'll notice your comments do better at first and then drop later, I suspect because some interests have google alerts or the like set up. I started getting muted a l

I never bothered remembering my password or using a real e-mail address so each of my devices has their own HN account. I've noticed my flags and vouches have a more immediate effect with the account with the most karma than they do on

by causi 3y ago
The comments that earn karma are really 50/50 between if I get flagged or suddenly get 50 upvotes. Always a fun time when you get flagged and personally reprimanded by dang but your comment is tremendously upvoted.

I am more than capable of finding spiders beautiful and panicking when one crawls onto me.

From personal experience, knowing a daddy long-legs isn't dangerous or even technically a spider doesn't help when one crawls out of your bike helmet onto your face.

Poor Archos. Went from making some of the earliest, coolest portable media players on the market to the worst android devices.

I'm boring. I always just name my computers their CPU name. Like my previous desktop before my current one was "4670K".

I have serious doubt there were any tablets shipping with Android 4 that used a resistive screen. At least not any that didn't come from some no-name manufacturer for eighty bucks.

Having spent most of my ChatGPT time trying to get it to correctly write powershell/batch scripts to do different things in Windows, I will be fucking amazed if this button actually does half the things you tell it to.

I'm excited to see where this goes but needing two 1w Airjet Minis to cool one 7w CPU is a pretty terrible power ratio. I'm sure the 1.7 watt fan in my Win Max 2 is much louder, but it can cool a 35W APU.

It's weird that she puts so much effort into this but doesn't try to use a microcontroller and gentle acceleration curves to keep her motors from cracking the glass.

I wonder if AI will ever scale down to personal hardware, or if every step from here forward is going to rely on an internet connection forever. I don't like the idea of never having real control.

My personal experience with it is game emulators that reset your customized control layouts and such but I imagine it could work for other sorts of apps.

Heavy water hydrogen bonds are a couple percent stronger because the molecules themselves are very slightly smaller. Smaller molecules result in a shorter range of vibration at a given temperature, hence less inherent "fighting" o

The toxicity of heavy water is not related to its molecular weight, rather to the difference in strength of its hydrogen bonds.

Right, and the problem with water rights seniority is that the amounts were allocated based on 16.5 million acre-feet per year when the modern average annual flow is 11 million acre-feet.

I couldn't tell you if it's a set depth or some kind of stochastic system. Many of HN's rules are subtle/invisible, to the point you can't even be sure whether they're being applied by an automatic system or by

As a user, I've found utility in apps that offer all features and customizations for free, but reset your preferences every time you start the app. It's like a demo except it never stops working and you can see the maximum amount

Feature suggestion: a countdown so you know how many more times you and someone can reply to each other before you hit the limit and have to start repeatedly editing your last comment to carry on the conversation.
