I feel like hardly anyone in Germany knows how to pronounce Azure (myself included for the longest time). There are no other common words like it, and what feels like the most obvious pronunciation is far from the correct one.

And if they want me as a customer, they have to follow _my_ rules. Obviously the restaurant has enough other customers and I have enough other restaurants to go to, so we both will be fine.

Sorry, but did you even watch the video? I found the tone to be quite neutral, and he gives Tesla credit where credit is due. Besides, the video isn’t even about Tesla or “Elon”; it’s just one of multiple applications of LIDAR discussed in

Even without knowing the background of those protests: It is heartbreaking to see a crowd of peaceful people (seemingly during a moment of silence) being attacked by their own country and fleeing in panic and pain.

I think the community still does its best to downvote low-effort comments like that (independent of the political position). But as a non-American it sure is annoying to see more and more of them.

I think people usually only talk about "Svelte", but that doesn't really imply a "Svelte v1". So it's very plausible to miss the existence of major versions of not working with it.

A benevolent assumption would be that GP tries out a lot of stuff (according to their other comments) and therefore mixed something up, unwittingly spreading FUD about Revolt

Not sure if they are a reality or just a MBA's wet dream yet: TVs with integrated eSIM to not even require WIFI for transmitting usage data and ads.

And the value of Blender (or any 3D rendering software) is not only the fidelity of the rendered result, but the tools it gives artists to transform their vision into something that can be rendered by a computer.

Very happy with using Immich[1] for self-hosting a Google Photos alternative. Feels good to not push all those private memories to big tech. What would be the main differences to Ente Photos? The on-by-default encryption? [1] https:/&

It worked great until the information about the policy got leaked AND made headlines around the world. I'm sure a lot of this stuff is going on which doesn't make it to the HN front page and therefore goes on for years, marginall

There are companies that remove bad reviews as a service. The most popular way seems to contest that the user really was a customer, which forces Google to request a proof (e.g. a receipt). Most users either don't have the receipt anym

Worst of all: the article never explains what npm has to do with it. Vscode extensions are not installed via npm, so at least part of the malware depends on the Vscode extension store.

Reading the other comments in this Twitter thread it seems like it's gotten much worse than in the years before. It's seems so much more political and radicalized now.

I prefer to shit on companies that don't even do "the bare minimum" and never publish source code of their dead products. Today, this is not Google.

Oh wow, o1 really refuses to answer that, even though the answer that Deepseek gives is really tame (and legal in my jurisdiction): use software to record what's currently playing on your computer, then play stuff in the YTM app.

I mean why invest $70 (and a lot of ressources) in hardware when, in theory, you have everything you need, the software is just locked behind a paywall?

What a sensationalist headline. The car slowly drives around in circles on a parking lot and the passenger apparently does not feel in danger (being on the phone with CS and taking videos for social media).

I'm also puzzled by many of the comments that are (for HN standards) exceptionally angry and dismissive. Yeah, apparently the data is incomplete and there are some errors/disputes. But that will always be the case when processing

Yes, it's a strange argument in my opinion. He also argues that almost all open source projects live on Github, but those don't pay money for dev products either.

Oh wow, I really didn't make that connection. Thanks! Still not sure it really is a good name for a lib: someone who doesn't already know it will probably not think about jQuery when they see this name in a dependency list...
