The best argument in the article though is the one you seem to be missing. The chair itself matters little when it comes to your comfort in comparison to your fitness.

Beauty being subjective, it’s best left to others to describe the project as beautiful rather than the author. Like the difference between someone saying “I’m beautiful” vs having someone else describe them as beautiful, that comes across a

The marketing text in the readme is more self congratulatory than useful to the end user. It’s fine to be proud of one’s work, but the documentation should first consider the needs of the project’s consumers. If it were up to me I’d strip o

My first impression is that this would be really easy to detect. One look at the source of a page using whitespace steganography and you’ll know something is up. Whereas with images and LSB steganography, unless you’re looking for it with s

The average transaction fee refers to the cost in btc to make a transfer. That amount is then converted to usd to make it easier to comprehend. Such fees go up during periods of high strain on the network and as people choose to pay more to

Any chance you remember what those bugs resulted in? I’m dealing with the same scenario for work where I’m using Mithril and have been wondering if what I’m seeing is due to my usage or the library itself. I do love the library and its comm

This page lacked any information on the tech details of the Quest 2 and how it would compare to the first edition. Are those available anywhere online?

A highly specialized browser for emacs from 2013 is hardly competition against consumer browsers. I don’t think they’re directly comparable either.

No. They’re saying that it’s creating an entirely separate DOM tree unnecessarily by using shadow DOM where it isn’t needed. On a related note, I’m curious if anyone has a benchmark comparing performance and memory consumption when attachin

Why do you do it? I’m sure inventing chemical weapons is a fun challenge to a skilled chemist, but if you’re morally opposed to it shouldn’t that matter more?

What is the reason for using different syntax for Move and TakePhoto from the Operation enum in the penultimate example? Is there a name for each of those enum member types?

With a buffer overflow, you can write your own code into a chunk of memory that ends up being run by the application. In this case, since WhatsApp already had SMS read privileges as part of the signup auth flow, the attacker also had those

Using a centralized service which, ultimately, you have to take at their word seems to me like it should not be necessary in this age of trustless networks and innovation in decentralized technology. Speaking in particular about ProtonMail

This seems like a good approach. Often we either have a different set of underlying assumptions/facts or different axioms. For the former case, the “how truthful” approach makes a lot of sense.

What do you mean about the key travel on the keyboard? I’m not familiar with the term in this context.

Never knew! Thank you. Do you know if the current algorithm is published anywhere or do they keep that under wraps to prevent it from being gamed?

Is this the actual HN ranking code? It looks like a demo of a lisp.

The leading zeros threw me off as well. At first I interpreted 020% as 0.20% due to the coloring. For something information-centric like this, I think clarity over stylistic choices should be the foremost concern.

Yes. They’re also using fs.exists in the exact way that the official documentation says not to use it.

Is importing P5 a requirement for this engine to work? I know “minimal” can mean a lot of things to different people, but I don’t think it P5 adds much that you couldn’t trivially do without it in this case, and by stripping that dependency

Interesting that Russia would publish self incriminating documents and evidence of their own malfeasance within Ukraine and corruption elsewhere. Really makes you think.

Why did fingerprinting never catch on in that way? That tech has existed for ages. Way cheaper to implement as well. Seems like it would also be less prone to false positives compared to facial recognition, but that’s just speculation on my

The downside there is you’re heavily relying on strings, which feels a bit weird for things like event handlers, which would either have to inline the function as a string or do some magic behind the scenes. The editor is also going to be l

They are using unlawful violence and intimidation towards the pursuit of political aims. Whether or not you feel those aims are justified, their means by definition have earned the “terrorism” label. A previous commentor made a great point

Having tried doing a polyphasic sleep cycle around four years ago, the one thing that I really missed was the clear delineation between days. On a normal sleep schedule, you wrap up your day with an evening routine and begin the next day wi
