As an Australian, and as someone who is relatively switched on and pays attention to things in general, I do not know what I can and cannot recycle -- it has changed a few times in the past few years, and of course whenever I move to a new

Every single one of their before & after photos looks worse in the after. The cartoons & illustrations lose all of their gradations in feeling & tone with every outline a harsh edge. The landscapes lose any sense of lushness and

Not yeeting them would appear to be a valid option, yes. You can leave them un-yote for as long as you wish.

No, his point remains: companies may act in bad faith, and publicly committing to act in good faith is absolutely no evidence they will not. I don’t mean to be trite, but publishing a bug bounty program doesn’t mean you’re the good guys.

Human walking speed approaches 3 miles per hour. A 15 minute city is therefore somewhere all of these facilities are a bit under a mile away. Most places in the US are probably two- or three-hour-cities — which is still nothing to the ave

AUKUS is about more than submarines -- that just happened to be the bit that hit the news. There are specific provisions in AUKUS for AI & other technology partnerships.

TorrentFreak is a news site, not a site that enables torrenting per se. That said, your analogy is also flawed: this is not a gunpowder accident, it’s one merchant turning the cannons on the other, and the complaining party is the only one

I will place a bet with you, if you like, that will be very easy for you to win if you're correct in your comment. The bet goes something like this: Pick a group chat you're in of 10 or more real-life acquaintances who all current

Of course you can and should be entitled to make a living. You can do so IP free, even in creative fields. You can’t make a billion dollars, IP free, and that’s okay with me.

I don't know the term for the box that comes up at the top of results and gives you suggestions. I'm going to call it the whatever-box. The google whatever-box is more frequent than the one at Kagi. Is it better? The number of t

Why are you emphasising native code? Is there something about native code being bad that I am missing?

What you're suggesting is that you know better than every cinema-goer and every cinematographer, animator, producer, and director around what their preferences "really" are, which is a pretty wild thing to claim, especially i

Motion blur doesn't really work in that way on any device, but what you're missing is that the content's captured frame rate has a relatively important relation to the display frame rate: You can't usually change one

There's a point at which these things balance out and work. I'm not sure that 120 frames per second is high enough, but it's much closer. We have anecdotal evidence (the fact that everyone hated The Hobbit) that 48 frames per

This is an odd take. Firstly: No one on the mass market actually knows what 3:2 pulldown is, so it's hard for people to see it as an indicator of 'quality' -- most of HN, a technical audience, probably doesn't know what

They instruct you not to pay, but that instruction has absolutely no binding. The Australian orgs I have deal with in large compromises have universally opted to pay to prevent release, where it was financially feasible.

The thing I find lacking in Kagi -- and the only Google service I find myself unable to find my way towards not using in general -- is maps. The funny thing about Google Maps is I actually hate their map (and their navigation), and vastly p

On the other hand, I do not want to wake up three whole hours before sunrise for work each day. This isn’t just a preference, it’s a biological predisposition which is impossible to ignore. I’m a night owl. My best hours are after sundown.

There's many synthesizers that use a Teensy as the brains of the thing. My favourite by far is the Dirtywave M8, which is an incredible bit of hardware & software design, in UI & UX. They're unfortunately sold out, now,

The entire blog post is the stick-in-the-bike-spokes meme. The man ate some laxative gummies, shit the bed, and is complaining that it took too long to clean up and all he wanted was to enjoy some candy, and how could anyone expect a layman
