That is interesting! Unfortunately if I try Google Netherlands (google.com/?gl=nl) I also get Miep, so it's not just a US thing.

I liked Snapchat, but I don't like stories. To me, the beauty of Snapchat was that I could share a funny moment with a couple of friends who I thought would find the same thing amusing. I can't do that with stories. It's like

If I search "who gave away Anne Frank's hiding place?", Google confidently gives me the answer "Miep Gies". I don't know why Google would even suggest this -- Miep was one of Anne's helpers. Imagine all t

From the link you posted: > It's important to note that this fallacy should not be used to dismiss the claims of experts, or scientific consensus. Appeals to authority are not valid arguments, but nor is it reasonable to disregard t

How did YTMND teach kids html? I thought it was just a site that hosted a soundbite from 'Finding Forrester' and had a wacky colored background.

What Twitter used to be good for is following a particular niche of people. For example, if you start following just a handful of developers who post content you like, and follow other developers who they interact with and retweet, the idea

So can you, for example, picture a black square which takes up the entirety of your vision? So your eyes are open, but you perceive nothing in front of you?

It's interesting to see a new generational take on lucid dreaming. For me, it was always more exploratory -- discovering the power of the human brain to construct reality out of nothing. There was no desire to play out an entirely scri

It sounds like you're trying to make me aware that I might be the one to blame, here. That maybe this "serial interrupter" was just trying to get a word in while I railroaded the conversation. And that's fair. I didn&#x2

Oh, you're right! I guess you'd have to disable the context menu too.

I thought this is what it was going to be! Another method would be to generate a plane with the same number of vertices as pixels, store the pixel color values as an attribute, and then render the mesh to a canvas.

I understand that's sometimes the case, as I've been known to interrupt people myself. But in this particular instance I don't think I ever spoke more than 15 seconds without them speaking over the top of me. I later got them

I've tried this with a serial-interrupter. The danger of this approach is that most other people in the room won't remember who was speaking first. You'll get responses of "you were both talking at the same time. I could

So the idea is that when I play Call of Duty, I can wear the hat I purchased in Roblox? And when I'm in Roblox, I can use the character I purchased in Call of Duty? Is this something that players desire to do?

Who are companies like this selling the data to, and who is validating that the data is real? Would it be possible to generate a fake data set and sell that?

It's mentioned in the article. "Netflix worked with Keaton Patti, who's done this bot thing before. This time round the bot watched over 400,000 hours of horror movies before penning its great masterpiece, 'Mr. Puzzles W

I think the key difference here might be that you were on vacation. I assume those going to work or school would feel the effects differently.

If that's what's happening, why are most of the Twitter-famous whale collectors completely anonymous? Granted, it's probably happening to some degree amongst the rubes. But I'm more convinced by the argument that the mai

As someone who has no dog in this fight, can I get a link to some of the circumstantial evidence you mentioned? It sounds interesting, at least.

The downside of this approach is that most people will not read what you wrote. Especially if it's more than, say, three sentences.

I believe it's stra-teck-uh-ree. As in, strategy and tech. Goes to show you can still launch a successful blog with a name that no one can pronounce or understand.

I think it's good for society that we care about things which may not directly affect us. Having said that, the original poster is an artist, and the NFT craze is driven by a scam which disproportionately affects artists. I can see why

> I hear its supposed to help artists That's the grift. A handful of artists get paid and push the story that NFTs help artists. Throngs of starving artists throw their money onto the pile, only to never receive a cent.

I wonder if this means they no longer have to write "Instagram from Facebook" and "Whatsapp from Facebook".

This would make sense if collectors weren't hiding behind pseudonyms such as "@crypto888crypto" and "@7Surfer7Silver7". Hint: it's not about status. It's about pumping the price of eth.

Photoshop is no longer an industry-standard design tool, at least in digital. Most designers I know and work with use Figma, which is a browser-based collaborative design tool. It also has an unlimited free plan, which is great for students
