Unsurprisingly Stylus is one of the preprocessors that people want to avoid the most (beating less by 1% in user satisfaction). The preprocessor is very apathetic to what style you use - it's the antithesis of a linter. Want to use a s

I think the most offensive thing here is that 6.2% of people use inches as a unit of measure in their css. The thought of 𝚋𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚎𝚛: 𝟶.𝟸𝚒𝚗 𝚋𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚔; sitting in someone's css is terrifying.

Personally I prefer a mix of both. For reusable components, I prefer inline styles. These are things that shouldn't be mutable without creating an exception to the design language. For basic page layout, standard stylesheets all the wa

I've experienced a lot of these things since leaving the bay area and moving to Australia. The thing that surprised me most was similar to point #3 - in Australia the less fortunate are taken care of. One big mental drain I had in Amer

In addition to that, I can hold multiple "real time" conversations at once with IM, whereas with video chat I'm glued to a single topic. These days I check my email about once a week. I do almost everything business oriented

It seems like something endemic to the protocol. Logitech's recent wireless mice/keyboards have skipped bluetooth altogether - they determined the lag was simply too large for high performance gaming: https://www.reddit

Which is ironic, as one of those two videos has a specific section about it legally not being defamation. The Indian courts granted an ex parte injunction against pewdiepie though because he didn’t show up in court in India.

Thank you, was the first thing I looked for. While the intention of the bill seems good, I worry that this will become the next cookie popup. From the text of the bill: "Any large online operator that engages in any form of behavioral

Potential to be huge for sure, but with the way Google sunsets projects on the regs, I'm not sure I fully trust it as a robust solution long term. Granted with container-based-deployments, it should be trivial to switch between service

A lot of being cold has to do with body mass though. The larger your muscles -> the more they generate heat and the more they insulate. When I was at my bulkiest I'd be sweaty in a 60F/15C room. When I was at my skinniest I&#x2

AI is definitely a loaded word. We have years upon years of built up fictional worlds created on the basis of a dystopian future put in place by AI gone wrong. It's understandable - AI is an enemy that no country will be offended by (a

That's one of the biggest things that lawmakers here couldn't seem to understand - tech companies have high mobility across borders. Even if a law has no teeth, why would Microsoft store data in Australia when the next country ove

The problem with censoring and banning the information outright (in the case of NZ) is that it gives power to the manifesto. So much of what Jacinda Ardern said after the shooting was about denying the person a platform: "We, in New Ze

Actions do have consequences, and the New Zealand government should be aware of this. Sentencing an 18 year old to 14 years in prison has the consequence of making them a non-functioning member of society in the future. This is not a repara

I'll echo this. I was hired by Atlassian to join and "make prototyping better". Part of this meant enabling designers to more easily create code based prototypes. I learned very early on that if creating something in code mea

If this did go live in California, it would need to be policed in a different way. The “left lane is for passing only” would have to be enforced strictly before it would operate efficiently, and a minimum speed limit would have to be posted

Had an almost identical experience to this. They seem to have no communication between their departments that sell you the product and those that collect it when you're done using their services.

Very cool, but minor ux nitpick: No need to have the select options in the dropdown when all of the options are already on the screen. The doubling of content is distracting from the experience.

To be fair, the last two are spearphishing attacks and so are limited to manipulating a single vote. While important, the scope of this test is to ensure that a single actor cannot manipulate masses of votes at once to skew things heavily i

I wonder if this just has to do with uniqueness of those songs in comparison to the the Max Martin pop formula output we have today. The Beatles' music, while I'm not an enormous fan, is notably unique in chord progression and tem

It'd be really interesting to try that. I think anything organic it'd work well with - people, landscapes, etc. But I've noticed that a lot of the cars that come out of stylegan are pretty abstract - it seems to have trouble

For what it's worth, we're using a GAN to generate fake user avatars for our products. They're real enough that we can use them in advertising, and since there's no actual person whose photo was taken, we don't requ

Very much non-news article in my opinion. I don't see anything new here in the image restyling processes or anything unique - it's just applying existing algos with a racial spin.

I'm against this, but not for the typical reason of privacy or worry of government overuse. What I'm worried about more than either of those is the growing prevalence of GAN created video. As the outputs of GAN become more realist
