And I also notice that when I ask here on HN a critical question about the Democrats, I get flagged and downvoted. And if I ask a critical question about the Republicans, I get answers like "obviously". When I ask the same questio

The first sattelite to make a map of the CMB was COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) in the early 90's. The Axis of Evil was first observed there, but it was expected to be a measurement error / problem with the instrumentsation, an

Well, as it turns out it is frontpage news. And I think there will be some eyes on it. I'm not claiming this a non-issue, but I find it unfair to say that this is a particular replican problem. I think it's government in general.

I'm not familiar with these techniques, but from what I understand there is a very small chance, like somewhere around 0.01 or lower, that this aligns so perfectly with the solar system. So it would be a bad explanation to say it is co

Yeah, in almost all observations / readings the axis is there. There's just no explanation for it, and most people shrug it off as a data inconsistency or error with the measurement. But this measurement / data is the same th

Are people that stormed the Capitol in the Trump administration?

by gitaarik 2y ago
Aha ok, but I don't think it's very applicable to this situation. The people he has denied to know he might have met them once or twice, but it's not like part of his administration. This situation is different.

Can you give some examples? Honestly interested

Well I think it's very common for representatives to not directly reply after a certain incident, because they don't have all the details yet and they want to take time to form a proper response. Don't see how this is specifi

Because you want to share the info? I found it interesting and relevant to the discussion. Why would you be a programmer at all if you're gonna let AI do the hard work? Why even use a keyboard, that's for people that really don&#x

But if you ask a human to draw / illustrate a physical setting, they would never draw something that is physically impossible, because it's obvious to a human. Of course we make all kinds of little mistakes, but at least we can se

But it's different kinds of hallucinations. AI doesn't have a base understanding of how physics work. So they think it's acceptible if in a video some element on the background in a next frame might appear in front of another

Maybe also a good time to revise the Axis of Evil: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_of_evil_(cosmology)

Try Black Mesa instead of HL1, it's HL1 rebuild in source engine by fans.

Oh yeah? How??

But why does the UI suck actually? Is it because most people are used to Photoshop, and GIMP works similar but different enough to be very confusing and annoying? That's been at least my experience. But I haven't used Photoshop in

Why would web dev be eaten away by LLM's and other fields not?

I wasn't the one who posted the original comment you replied to. And yeah, reading other people's opinion can help you give perspectives and come to your own personal views. But I also think that certain newspapers seem to weave i

Yeah but agave is also a natural product from the agave plant, not artificially made, so it probably contains more useful nutrition, although I guess less than honey. But better than synthetically made anyway.

by gitaarik 2y ago
Bur honey contains some very useful ingredients also, so it's good to have some honey so now and then. And agave does have a lower glymetic index than table sugar. So that certainly makes a difference. Also I think that more naturally

Yeah but it's also preference. Some people like to read the facts and then come to their own conclusions. I think it can be interesting to read an opinion / column so now and then, to see someone's perspective. But I think it

So what is journalism according to you? Opinions? Columns?

by gitaarik 2y ago
Also YouTube offers unlimited upload space. And their streaming is solid. Something not every video platform can offer.

Well I think that it's a bit of waste of time and money to spend so much to adjust articles to please some people that, in my opinion, are complaining about unimportant things. I don't see how it's a big problem in our societ

And in the end, it's correct that this information is meant for the biological woman, and not the biological man. So it would just become confusing if you say it also applies to men. Because biological men don't have a vagina. If

by gitaarik 2y ago
Yes and what does that matter? If you have a vagina and you identity as a whatever, the article is still true for you. The medical advice doesn't matter what you identity yourself as. The information is about the specific organs. It do

by gitaarik 2y ago
Well if you have a vagina, and you have a period every month, and you need to take care of that in a hygenic way, it doesn't matter as what gender you identify, the vagina doesn't care.

Well maybe that should also be done if you want to be fair
