Great, now I can generate random cartoon portraits by combining this with https://www.thispersondoesnotexist.com/ I do second the observation that this isn't nearly "Anime" style by any definition or sample o

My late step-mother put on an Oculus Go and played basically every rollercoaster simulator available on the device back-to-back. It was like the Matrix scene where Neo was learning, then leaves the simulation and says "I know Kung Fu&q

No permissions required to read motion data. If I remember correctly, it might be necessary to declare the capability in a manifest, but there's certainly no prompt, nor a way to opt-out of an app reading motion data in the settings.

All that effort, then comes the actual video call software and blows the quality to smithereens, and you're back to yelling at a speaker connected to the mic socket and recording using the GameBoy camera add-on dipped in molasses. It&#

Not a Quest (I've used both and think it's the same answer), but with the HTC Vive the foam pads do a good job of not letting sweat get to your eyes. In general, the facemasks are pretty tight around the eyes, and the sweat glands

Magna is also a clash, so I'm not sure what's the benefit there. At least manga and mangoes are funny, magna seems just posh and insufferable (which if you ask the right people, is an accurate description of those companies)

No, that question is wrong, because that answer rounds up to 100%. Maybe a vocal minority like us HN-folk, but I don't think that by ourselves we really matter in terms of numbers.

EAP is free, and the subscriptions also work as a one-time payment by giving you permanent access to the latest-at-subscription-start version when accruing a year's worth. So you can pay 1 year and not renew, and it's the same as

Well, at least they will document why they edited-and-renamed the file!

Yes, that's correct. With a sane commit history it works quite reasonably. It's a bit of a hassle but any out-of-band information is by definition a nonzero hassle to find unless a tool does it for you. Also, "potentially rel

I find the snark is just fine, as long as it is accompanied of actual information. Like, no shit this is hairy code, but why is it hairy?

One approach I've seen used is placing comments in the body of version-control commits (on Git, beyond the first line). This clearly attaches them to a specific revision of the code, which is also automatically superseded when some oth

As far as I understand, unmapped fields are simply ignored, so you can write your code like #[derive(Deserialize)] struct Response { status: u64 }

I have not, I've just clarified the point of the parent in case you misread. But now I'm curious, what are the challenges with having a large number of entities implement a standard? Is it "just" the shrink-wrap effect o

by kroltan 5y ago
That's because there is no open standard for it, which is mentioned in the following sentence. > A room of computer science students could write an open standard for that in like a month and have a working implementation within the

I don't think it's like that. Ads are content with an ulterior purpose of, well, advertising. And the suggestion to skip is precisely the opposite of "just watch whatever's on TV", it's more of "if you don

Yes, very common. Not something us techies do too much, but remember, we're approaching the point where the majority of the world's population uses some sort of computer, while there are people alive in computer-available regions

Woah man, do you expose your SingletonStrategyFactory-s to the public? That's risky API design, I would recommend you at least put it behind a Manager, or ideally a ManagerDependencyFactory.

By analogy, that's also how type inference works. If you know X, and either the type-rules for arithmetic, or Z, you can figure out Y. The constraints of their usage can be used to determine the type required of that data.

Every time I search for something on DDG and there are no/few results, if I do the same query on Google I only get the insane spam/"hacked small business" websites with random SEO that redirect to arbitrary ads. And of c

Embedded browser views are my pet peeve. On some mobile apps (Gmail, Discord, Telegram, etc. On Android, never used a modern iOS device to know the situation over there) there are embedded browsers enabled by default, but they are not very

It's probably interference then, when I had access to a PS4 I lived in a big apartment block with tons of WiFi and probably Bluetooth devices around. In any case, the Switch's controllers fared much better, even though both consol

The answer is twofold: - The PS4 controller's range is VERY limited, even playing crouched on the sofa with your legs interrupting LOS between the console and the controller can cause connection issues. - The Switch's tiny split c

Could you clarify what is the paradigm shift? Static types? (If so I agree, but using Node does not imply not using TS)
