   But time is just an emergent property of quantum consciousness. Plenty more of it will be along in a minute.

   I said "equivalent" - the 2x lens is a 48mm equivalent so that difference would be almost invisible to most people.

   Aaah, got you, thanks. I'd incorrectly assumed "this" in your original post meant Wikimedia's challenge, rather than the OSA itself.

   There's so much wrong with this article it's difficult to know where to start, but the fact that they didn't bother to take the photos at the same time with an equivalent focal length makes the entire thing pointless.

   Oh, this is just egocentrism then - then inability to see things from the point of view of another. Everybody is actually not exactly the same as you, as surprising as that apparently will be.

    I'm really trying to believe you're coming from a good place here, but man, this really looks like a spectacular lack of empathy. Not everybody is like you. Try to look at it from the point of view of another human being, rather t

    I find it useful for some things, and not for others. I've gotten pretty good at judging what both Claude and I are going to do well, and what each of us will make a right mess of. Happiness lies in the middle ground.

    Finding out that you can never have children would likely be upsetting to a great many people. Just because you're so amazing, doesn't mean everybody is.

    Mullvad browser too, though it's maybe a bit extreme for a daily driver as it's essentially Firefox but permanently in private mode.

    You managed to explain that in a way that even I could understand. Magnificent, thank you.

    I tend to think all these business leaders are actually business larpers. They dress up as what they see other business people dressing up in, they lay off loads of people because they see other companies doing that, they send stupid letter

    As a data point of one, and one that really doesn't know much about chip fabs, I tend to see the "Intel Inside" sticker as a warning. I have no idea how they ever win back consumer trust.

    Reminder for folks in the UK and most of Europe, your national consumer protection laws give you this for free.

    I love the phrase "purveyors of unauthorized paywall bypassing technologies". Makes them sound like a high-end, boutique winery.

    I found it hard to stick to due to pre-existing workflows too. I find I'm often switching between branches in git, and our CI depends on pushing to specific branches - I constantly found myself a bit lost with jj about which underlying

    I think you're right in that Labour believe this, but that Labour are spectacularly wrong about it and have just signed their own death warrant. Young people want hope, and they definitely don't feel like Blue Labour could give th

    I suspect this will be pretty much the end of the Labour and Conservative parties, which is clearly a good thing - neither is fit for purpose any more. The new left-leaning party announced by Zarah Sultana, and the far right arseholes in Re
