Life being non-stop stressful for a majority of the population is not a personal illness, it's a societal illness. Although societal illness can definitely lead back to mental illness which is a very personal affliction. I do agree

I don't have that experience with Nextcloud Memories. Everything works well and it's comparably fast with Google Photos for me, and scrolling to specific dates works fine. How long ago did you try it? I've only been using it

I would disagree there. I've tried lots of photo managers, and for organizing thousands of photos, I think Google Photos has it pretty much nailed. When choosing a photo/video manager, "works pretty much exactly like Google P

It's just a dog whistle. People hate tax, so calling things that are not tax "tax" triggers anger in people without deep critical thinking skills. Or people with skills but not enough energy or time to use them on this partic

We all know what a measuring cup is. The issue is that flour is quite compressible. So if you've opened a fresh bag and scooped out a cup from the top, you'll get quite a different amount than if you dig in the cup and compress th

I used Django for a project a couple of years ago. Of course, there's a lot to learn. But generally I found that everything makes sense and I was able to build a moderately complex site with user accounts within a reasonable time. Work

I'm Irish. The state paid me to go to university, and I've paid it back many times over in taxes. Whenever I hear about the cost of degrees in the US I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. It doesn't make sense, it's

Ah I missed that, thanks. More than a little grainy for me but that might be a resolution/pixel ratio thing on my phone that could be tweaked out.

The demo at the top has some bad noise issues when the light is in small gaps, at least on my phone (which I don't think the article acknowledges). The demo at the end has bad banding issues (which the article does acknowledge). It see

As a migraine sufferer who is not overweight, I don't agree. I think it's likely there's a strong connection between inflammation and migraines, but even if that's not the case, migraines have triggers. I've spent y

In the same way that CICO (calories in, calories out) is a hard metabolic rule of weight gain, eating lot of complete protein and lifting heavy things is a hard physiological rule of "getting jacked" . It's conceivable that f

Is there a session start hook? I don't think so, unless it was added recently. I've mostly been working on smaller projects so I never need to compact. And skills are definitely not working even on the initial prompt of a new sess

I haven't had much luck with skills being called appropriately. When I have a skill called "X doer", and then I write a prompt like "Open <file> and do X", it almost never loads up the skill. I have to rewrite

I'm still not sure why it's on HN though. And even with the twist at the end they still spent an entire page making fun of the guy's appearance, clothing, name, and so on.
