As someone who isn't well versed in networking could you describe your setup in overview? Like, what software/hardware, etc.? Thank you

This kind of anthropomorphism is acceptable, it's not like the poster doesn't understand how evolution works... I'm pretty sure "experts" have used the phrase as well. The gist of the comment is correct though.

Why would it be? The repo seems decently active.

I don't see it mentioned nowadays but who is still building with Meteor? Is there anything that beats the convenience Meteor provides, especially for MVPs? Also MVP shouldn't be a ton of code, so you're always free to port it

Hmm, I do wonder why would a terminal use so much GPU ressources. Maybe it gets better with reducing scrollback? Seems extreme anyway.

by lambdaba 5y ago
Same. Mostly because I've read in many places that it is the fastest, despite not being GPU-accelerated. Wonder if someone can chime in and say if it's true. What I want, in order of importance, is good font rendering (Kitty, for

Thanks! Seems like like https://github.com/Igalia/cog is the answer, being a launcher for WPE, and it also supports WebDriver which is a plus. No documentation for config options and it does have a toolbar by default,

Ask HN: Is there a minimal browser like uzbl that is up-to-date?

That is a great idea, but then the challenge is to find the people to teach such a class. But really, great idea, I'll reflect on what such a class would look like. I'm amazed it doesn't exist already tbh.

But was it so constant? I can't recall the exact number but a huge percentage of Gen Z are persuaded they are likely to die of global warming. I can't say, I'm a millennial, but definitely remember being infused with informat

Thank you for writing this, I could've written this word for word. I also strongly resonate with the sentiment this is the golden age for optimists, it has always been a key for innovation and vitality, but in today's world it i

Thank you, this is a perfect illustration and one of the scenarios I feared around keeping data long-term, though I was thinking about disk errors and such. Sidenote I seem to have experienced Cunningham's Law for the first time semi-c

As someone who has been aware of ECC RAM for a long time could you briefly explain a concrete case where that is useful? Like, in all my time using computers I don't think I've yet encountered an error caused by RAM, or.. Did I?

Thank you. Shouldn't have said that with such certainty. But maybe perhaps having just the spike protein vs the whole virus is eliciting a different response? Again, I don't know.
616.
by lambdaba 5y ago
I did not know that. Thank you. Possibly in lesser quantities though? It is only related to the spike protein in the case of Covid. As I understand the natural immunity has a different fingerprint even with covid?
617.
by lambdaba 5y ago
Not the expert you were asking but one thing I know is natural immunity isn't just antibodies, which is why traditional inactivated vaccines yield more robust and long-lasting protection.

For anosmia I'd just take LSD or Psilocybin: https://twitter.com/hamiltonmorris/status/135642177740093849... Of course, these are illegal, dangerous drugs that you can't get prescribed, so you know, just

In an initial flurry of enthusiasm I bought a bunch of high-quality cables and I'm very glad I did. I can keep duplicate cables around in certain pockets etc. and I know I can always connect stuff. I had always used default supplier ca

You made me think of my own experience and indeed I realize since usb-c how much better connecting things has been. I'm down to one micro USB device and connecting to it is so annoying. USB-c is great, and I hope Apple products switch

Yes the speculation is a zero carb diet will arrest type 1 if caught early. Anyway we can perhaps at least agree that t2 diabetes is resolved by a low-carb diet and my initial point was just to say that blood vessel health is negatively imp

You said "at the end of the day your body still runs on glucose" which is NOT true on a ketogenic diet, as a mere 25 grams are manufactured by the liver as needed for (apparently) red blood cells. Yes, I agree that ketogenic diete

I did not say the body can't deal with glucose and as you point out, produce it on demand. What I meant by "in a tight band" was the chronically elevated glucose is damaging to organs as evidenced by what happens in advanced

Thanks, I didn't know. It's weird to see this misinformation about glucose being the primary fuel for human bodies while it's quite obvious human biology is optimized for fat burning. Glucose is just dealt with in priority be

by lambdaba 5y ago
Oh I agree, I think we've been greatly underestimating how damaging all these are and so should be treated like cigarettes with very heavy taxation that should go towards subsidizing healthy food.

I don't think people think much beyond calories wrt to overeating. I know my mentality was once "calories can come from anywhere, can always take a multivitamin to cover deficiencies", which I now find, to put it gently, sill

Oh, true, I missed that. In chrome it would be quite trivial to tail the history read from the sqlite db and get the latest url, and frankly something like Archivebox would be more powerful (truly grabbing all resources). Unfortunately in F

IME exercise (combined with appropriate diet, mind you), actually reduces food intake for me. Or at least, makes it so I eat less net calories after removing the expenditure. But otherwise agreed, diet is the foundation.
