The .xyz TLD was very cheap initially (looks like it's is $10 to renew now) which meant it was easy to buy a lot of them and use them for nefarious purposes. It caused issues for legitimate owners of the TLD who tried to send email wit

If you start that cheap, you'll get xyz's problem with domain reputation though

As a user, I would like to get off this wild ride and have my products work as intended.

I miss when I could just use the Tile app without the constant nags to upgrade to enter into a subscription. I already paid for my Tile devices at retail and only access them over Bluetooth locally anyway. Please stop trying to squeeze more

In all my previous houses I just cut a hole in the door. $50s from a big box store for the proper door and a jig saw. I think they even sell templates you can attach to the door to make them more seamless. But also I'm not trying to ke

How does one watch for new DNS entries? I was under the assumption that iterating the contents of a DNS zone isn't desirable now so is usually disabled/deprecated.

I used to do this, until the slowness, downtime, no offline mode, and API throttling fucked me over. So I left the ecosystem. Unfortunately I havent found anything comparable, though Typora mostly fills the void. I'm working on my own

So probably good enough for static models (perhaps with decimate or other modifiers as needed)? But not great for something you'd need to rig and animate, or something that requires tweaking after the model outputs it?

I think large studios would benefit from this too. I know some that use a workflow pipeline where artists are tasked with creating themed assets to build a catalog, which another team will use to build campaigns and quests for a specific MM

I don't see that either, but I also don't see a complete failure of the current power structure. State governments would step in and would put pressure on the counties to do more work and keep order. If the states collectively fai

The federal government is not the main enforcer of this. Counties generally do the work of tracking this. It's the job of the register of deeds. Failing that, normally the state would step in. You would require a failure of the federal

High risk business, other businesses are classified as the same when you try to sign up for a merchant bank account, like investment services and marijuana companies.

While I love the content, generically named, generically themed, freshly made (Feb 2023), non-personalized content channels make me so skeptical on who's running them and where the money goes. There's such a high volume of things

Same, especially when it seemed like the robot arm wasn't adding much to the process? Also the use of pneumatic tools (from I assume, some central compressor) as well as battery powered impact drills. Wouldn't it be so much more e

Almost sounds like the collective decision making process of the awards organization were in denial that the industry at large is changing. Feels dystopian that they would just, scrub the winning work from the website and physical location

Looks like it's a new default with the option to disable. Is there any way to set the default to another program? Or is Microsoft going to try to lock this down like the whole Microsoft Edge, EdgeDeflector, microsoft-edge://

The problem with any cooperative feels like a human one. Keeping everyone informed and active communicants. People like to forget about things when they're stable. A coop loses so much value when it just becomes a one email a year affa

It doesn't help that the main Vercel GitHub repo isn't really any core part of Vercel. It's just the cli and ancillary scripts. None of their infrastructure is open source or self-hostable, which was a surprise after finding

On the partial sums, okay, I see. Though, still for the 45-45-90 I don't think you can pick a different angle? At least for alpha > 45 (because it also doesn't work for this, the lines diverge), you can always swap it so beta i

by cobertos 4y ago
Geometrically, this happens when alpha is 45. The two lines in the diagram from the article will be parallel and never converge. 2*alpha = beta+alpha I was waiting for them to break this out into a special case or something but the article
472.
by cobertos 4y ago
Doesn't this proof not work when alpha or beta is 45°? 2 alpha would make the upper of the extension line in the diagram 90°, and alpha+beta for the bottom angle also 90°. The lines will never intersect, they're parallel

Interesting, Executive Order 6102, forcing US and non-US citizens to sell gold at a fixed rate, in order to prevent gold hoarding so the US could meet it's obligations to back it's currency via gold. Also interesting that it led t

But they lump them together to contrast an American-centric viewpoint with what the author perceive as Taiwan/TSMC rigor/gentleness/focus/invisibleness. Which is interesting imo, though maybe a bit overdone, but given th

Not even close. Maybe you could find something like that in the last 1/6th of the article. This summary would neglect the discussion on Taiwan's history, how TSMC convinced US to offshore it's fabs, the trust that went into t
