I have mild tinnitus so that's what brought me here, but I wonder about something else from the article. They wanted to test for motion sickness while facing backwards. That's my minor pet peeve. I think that we can't realist

Flip phones are also smaller when folded, so they are more pocketable. That alone is more important for me than most considerations.

I also thought about this, but I would replace them with empty or collapsed space.

I like the way that the author of Simple Mobile Tools [0] made donations. Applications are free and open source, but there is a paid app Simple Thank You [1]. That's also how I was thinking about doing "donationware" on a mob

There is also an add-on just for Skype: https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/addon/firefox-web-skyp... I use it, instead of different methods, because it's just a few clicks away and for me it's on

There's a road in Berlin (and probably it's not an exception) that has overhead displays showing how fast you should go to be on a green wave. At least that's how I understood how it works from driving there several times. Ad

But isn't Markdown a sugar on top of HTML? When something does not fit Markdown one is supposed to write inline HTML.

It looks terrific and really remarkable. There must be something like it for an animation software. Could somebody point me to the right direction, outside of web? However please refrain from usage on the web. Artistic and presentation use

But if it's your only use of such a thing, as it is for me, it's just one click away. You can also feel reasonably safe as the extension works only on Skype's web sites per Web Extension manifest.

It is Wine, but with patches, that one day could be clean enough to go upstream. Some eventually are merged upstream.

What's wrong with puts? GCC for example will even change a naive printf to puts when applicable.

I've got Tinnitus. I should have used ear plugs or rather a heavy duty hearing protection much earlier. My daughter had problems with her stomach or with us trying to put some clothes on her. The scream amplitude and frequency in a sma

I think we should code around them, instead of writing comments on HN. Me included. I previously wanted to write an elaborate comment, but I should really focus more on productive endeavors.

I'm reminded of pasturing animals plowing the soil causing it to be less dry and fertilizing it at the same time. It was discussed here within this year, but I can't find the discussion page. One possible link: https://

Reading sibling comments I have an idea for a startup. Make an AV, that does not really do anything, but can be used by thoughtful companies to "tick the box". Sell licenses and then do only the minimum required for compliance. It

It's interesting how one of the best sources of information are sites providing the information as a side dish to their core business. For example I was searching for a lease termination letter template. There are sites dedicated to do

I hope for the overlap of their TypedQML with TypeScript. I am a C++ dev by career and had recently an opportunity to use TypeScript. It's quite nice. It has it's warts as it's structural typing, because of limitations within

I hope that in future the module system that will be introduced by C++20 will eventually kill CMake. Having said that I don't know the scope of the functionality brought by it, but if not with C++20 the next one will probably be good e

It's not much faster as in "over 50% faster". It's faster to invoke as you have much less to type to scan recursively with ignore list. However I find that in many projects .gitignore is too extensive, because it inclu

That's interesting. Could you expand it a bit or point to some English articles about it? After joining can you work with your own client and not share the client with the rest of the cooperative?

It's a good thing if it would scale, but I would like to see kits to reduce NOx emissions. It should be far easier to do and scale. After cheating scandals people, like me, are left with the cars that increasingly can't be driven
