Like everything in UK law it is interpretation (of a police officer and a judge and your defense) and any given circumstance. If you sleep in the back of a camper van with the key in the glove box and the doors locked a police officer would

More like parachutes are deemed environmentally wrong and need to be replaced by something, so parachute manufacturers are coming up with wing suits and big bits of foam and then Parachutes_International are thinking were do we put our mone

They have hybrids of current models so assume that they are hedging their bets and taking it slow. Heavy investment in the wrong direction could destroy a company even the size of VW group. Tesla is a youngling with heavy investment and no

Waiting for governments to get EVs to a +50% market share and then slather the taxes on with a trowel, including a battery recycling fee payable by the consumer. I can't see this ending well for the consumer. Maybe I'm being pessi

thing is, reddit is visually appealing. It's a list of links in purest form. If it wasn't saturated with gifs, images and shitposting, it would be ideal UX. It works quite well in Lynx (the comnand line browser on Linux) which i

To me, Slack is just IRC without any of the fun. I was encouraged to join some rooms for work, but then 1000 notifications later I realized that nothing of value gets discussed and that our boss was also invited, so he was seeing all the ir

Having to keep the phone unlocked while walking is a killer, the battery dies pretty fast. How is that I can go for a run and fitness apps can track me via geo-location, serving notifications as I go, but PG can't?

And in Edinburgh when I lived there you had to pay for the permit, IF you could even get one because all the permits were taken up by the people who lived there already. Edinburgh has a lot of tenement housing (long rows of flats built befo

If any HN users are interested in car prices in Norway this is where you can see prices for new, used and leasing. This is the go-to (essentially only) marketplace for cars here : https://www.finn.no/car/used/searc

Remind me to overcharge you if ever I serve you in a shop. When you complain that with that extra $n you have done some thing , I'll point you back to that comment.

Does that mean it's acceptable?

I think you missed the point being made by the person you replied to. The only 10.04 install you should encounter exists due to ignorance and not due to upgrade cost as with a non-open OS. XP/Vista/7/8/10 don't get

it's not about what MS put in VS and VSCode, it's about changing the minds of .NET developers who used are to C# syntax/grammar and hate Python because it doesn't fit their world-view. "Already in VS" is meanin

I just over-log absolutely everything. If it fails log it. If it succeeds and you might need to know about it, log it. That's not great error handling, but it helps with debugging.

the problem with Python where I work is that developers are openly hostile toward it. We're predominantly .NET with just a couple of products running on Linux servers. I'm not a .net guy despite the pressure, and have been teach

Even with Airplane mode (or aeroplane mode as I like to call it) you can't stop my cat wanting to be let out/let in/ out/in/fed/out/in. A cinema is like an oasis of calm.

A fast PC, a 4K screen, a nice home, paid streaming service subscription, paid ISP subscription and snacks. I believe France to be a bit more socialist (in the same way as Scandinavia is) than some other countries and it's possible a

With the added costs of owning a PC good enough to stream and being on a paid for network good enough to stream, which might not be available in a lot of the French countryside where a bicycle ride or a short trip on public transport is mor

I think you are mixing up visual design, graphic design, with UX and interaction design.

by kagamine 10y ago
That's actually a great example. Skeuomorphic design has it's place and can be good design, but my Calendar app doesn't need to look like a leather diary in as it did in 2014. A good example is DJ software that looks like set

I think you don't understand the design process. Not being bitchy, so let me explain. Instinct should be 1% of design if anything. Design isn't about colors and pretty, it's about a detailed process that includes data structu

I agree, but would like to add that there is a caveat to 'designers should code' that is not letting a programming language or framework dictate design through its limitations or structure. I am a designer who codes, in fact my ba

Yeah, let's have a 2-sided conversation about EVs on HN and see. Tesla is God, Tesla is King, Musk will save our souls.

I personally like the built-in notes app with folders, it opens in a sidebar. It's a nice looking browser too. Been using it on Win & Linux for the last few months and it's grown on me a lot.

Or ask the doorman when he's taking a break and if he'd like you to celebrate his birthday that just happens to be today! with a nice gift.

As a UX guy "Maybe the nurses didn't know how to do it, but it can definitely be done." is absolutely no excuse. It still screams 'poor design' and 'couldn't be bothered to test'.

Similarly, my job lets me claim a part of the monthly internet bill as a work-from-home expense, but my ISP cost me 6 months expenses because they couldn't transfer the account to my name from my SO's. Same last name, same address

Windows had this length limit all the up to and including Win8, my work login which included a 3 letter domain and backslash was too long for Windows, so they cut the last 3 letters of my name off so that I could be logged in. It's mad
