Ask HN: What's the point of audio waveform visualization?

They're saying it's difficult to explain how to isolate the muscle. For example, two simple ways to lift only your heel from a sitting position are: 1. Push down with the ball if you foot 2. Lift up with your hip/quad They lo

I'm usually jealous of a specialist for about 6 months to a year. Eventually I learn enough about what they do to lose interest and become jealous of a new specialist.

This is hilarious. With each iteration he has less and less mobility. Also, I find the car hit test disturbing. Sure, maybe it protects your limbs from breaking or joints from hyper-extending, but does it protect against your brain sloshing

Well, this sounds wrong to me: > Catastrophe requires multiple failures – single point failures are not enough My experience is that a single failure causes a cascade of subsequent failures. This topic is very interesting, but this post

Of course, the irony is that lying about racism is itself an act of racism.

Writing laws and contracts in natural language is kind of insane given that they are formal specifications.

It's not just intelligence, it's also speed. If you update your world model fast enough, eventually people just look like trees.

Logistics with young kids is hard. It's much harder without a car. I actually hate cars to be honest. I'd rather walk everywhere. But the proposition that bicycles would be so superior to self driving cars that we should pit these

OpenAI Dall-e uses infinite scrolling to display your saved images. If your window is large enough to not have an active vertical scrollbar, it will never load all your images. So, instead of pagination, you have to resize your window to th

UML conflated system modeling with diagramming and focused too much on the diagramming.
