   IIRC none of the images showed the whole guitar. Both were cropped, but one was consistent with the card layout. I agree with the test authors on that one.

   Plus that whole page is outright unreadable: tiny, jagged font with terrible contrast ratio.

   Why not F/T/F? I mean, both F/T/F and F/F/T are consistent states.

   Oh wow that's great! Looks like it ticks all boxes, and more. Really wish you succeed in making the web a better place. I'd love to try the platform from a consumer standpoint, though - maybe add a demo page? I'm not a creato

   99% of the content on news.ycombinator.com is not about startups. An utter failure!

   Just a tiny detail that all pages return 404, even though they open fine.

   Austrians like sound money. Backing your currency by a strong global currency that you can't print goes very much in that direction. It's akin to the US going back to the gold standard. I'm not sure what's "leftist&

    The reason why the real didn't lose value immediately was because for a very long time you could always exchange it for USD 1:1. So there was no reason to get rid of (i.e. devalue) it, neither for Brazilians nor external investors. Tha

    OCaml was also my first programming language. First year uni in Brazil, 2006! Thanks to a very tough French professor. The class hated it/him. Type errors were nothing short of terrifying. `function has type (a->(b->c)->(b-&gt

    Sorry for being rude. No, my [non-]argument wasn't in good faith - it was in response to a parody comment, after all. But you seem serious this time. The problem with that line of reasoning is: sure, you can (quite literally) weigh the

    It's a very interesting question. The paradigm shift from animal-powered to machines happened in many industries and not just transportation, but especially agriculture. Can you find cases from other industries where the paradigm has e

    There are browser extensions that bring back the "Discussions" filter that Google removed a few years ago. Unfortunately niche forums aren't really popular these days so you end up with older results.

    I have one of those with adjustable legs [0]. You can fit a narrow keyboard underneath. Not sure what's your criteria for 'highly portable', though - this thing won't fit in a backpack. [0] https://www.kogan.c

    Yes, I've seen this same issue with AWS lambdas. Browser reports CORS errors but sending the same request with Postman returns HTTP500, which made me realise it was a malformed request.

    That was fun. Only two people suspected it was GPT-3, and one of them was reprimanded for suggesting (although rather aggressively) it!? I never gave any credit to the concept of "AI overlords" but seeing people genuinely defend i

    As a kid I'd compete against classmates over who could start-stop a stopwatch the quickest. I don't think anyone who didn't use that technique (which was just instinct really) had any chance.
