Some clown from my country made a huge deal about it and even made some kind of grievance documentary about the Apu character from the Simpsons until they eventually phased him out. I was quite annoyed. All this stuff about offending people

Voice activated code snippets or command line switches would be nice. "Hey ffmpeg crop the first 15 seconds of input.mp4 and increase the volume by 15%". Modular so I can switch out the speech recognition and the NLP and fulfillme

My personal assistant runs on my pi. When I'm out I can use its chat app to talk to it. The chat uses a cloud real-time db like firebase. If I want to connect I just ask it to setup a reverse proxy. It can also turn on my machines via

Thanks. I'm surprised that there isn't something like lambda where you can just get a really fancy cpu on demand for a quick encoding job.

Does anyone have some experience with this use-case: I have a MP4 file and a SRT file with subtitles is there a convenient way to re render the video with subtitles drawn on it so I can use it in places where subtitles are not supported? Is

If he's just triggering "Add to Cart" and the system responds with "Ice Cream Machine Broken" then it's relatively less harmful. As he says, it probably messes with their data. Unlikely that he's spending

From what I remember reading service worker versioning, caching and expiry felt like it was riddled with gotchas. Does anyone know of a good resource that covers most of these?

Don't know why you are downvoted. As a layperson I have no idea what the correct answer is to this - i.e. once you factor in the manufacturing, replacement, maintenance, backup plant, batteries, etc. what is the net gain?

If the Press Secretary makes ban-worthy remarks, the people have a right to know what those remarks are. This is basically secrecy, not ban-worthy remarks. She said something that the public is not allowed to know.

The campaign's original response was the nonsense about the official schedule. This politico reporter managed a better response: "Biden’s campaign would not rule out the possibility that the former VP had some kind of informal int

True, but the text contains facts around which the opinion is based. Those facts are not in dispute.

Reading so many comments here quoting the Biden campaign that the meeting did not appear on the official schedule and therefore the story is complete debunked. At this point I don't even know what to say honestly.

Is there a word for the typical arguments that you see where there are 100 false premises and to even make your case you have to dismantle each one? The Russia conspiracy theory is laden with these. So many conversations are very tedious be

Why is the percentage important? The principle is the same - bad decision, preventable. If the 15% was everyone you cared about perhaps you would not see it that way.

Sure nobody denies this but "you deserve it therefore stop complaining" is not really an argument, more like shutting down the point entirely. I agree with you that the sanctimonious outrage over the attempted, but laughable elect

If it's a conspiracy, the number of people involved would be quite high, so it would probably be difficult to keep it a secret.
