Disclaimer: I'm not a native English speaker, but that's not what I believe "reward" means. When guessing, you're not making any effort, it's just random, nothing to do with "agency" or behaviour. It&

It does not work for me. It's the first thing I tried, because it works this way in Windows for different devices... that is neither ideal, but still better than the crappy menu.

Bistec a la X” for many types of X is part of the Spanish-speaking world Right, even for X = pork. But lately, it's fading in favour of "filete" (slice) of X, at least in Spain.

Windows is mostly OK now. My use case is just moving files from the incoming folder (desktop or downloads) into a few subfolders (for different projects) and later, inside a more specific points in the subdirectory tree. This workflow it&#x

Thank you for the file pickers info, I'll try that. Does it have tiny scrollbars on Windows? I agree that they suck, though I've learned to live with it by now... Try these "about:config" settings: - widget.gtk.overlay

I'm a Protestant, but that explanation of transubstantiation may be the popular understanding but is not the actual official doctrine of the Catholic Church. I was raised a Catholic, I believe doctrine changed at some time, maybe Vat

Not the same person, but I've recently switched from Windows 10 to Debian stable with KDE, so I can share my experience. It doesn't really sucks. Instead, I'm happy I have no longer to put up with the growing number of Window

So it has a name... I'm sick and tired of flashback overuse in recent series, mostly to explain the feeeeelings of the characters and so justify their stupid behaviour. But this must be the ultimate abuse: most of the story is a flas

It's hard to reconcile good things a person might have said and done, with the bad. It's very easy to reconcile that a person that has done very bad things can say insightful things or be competent. Being bad doesn't mean b

I won't say that the platform is irrelevant, but not the main problem. You need to be so much more productive than the rest that, after following the usual useless mandatory hypertrophied process, you still have time to apply a sane pr

Riboflavin (B2) means literally "yellow ribose" and ribose has also a curious ethimology: an anagram of arabinose, a compound found in gum arabic.

The point of the banners are to annoy the shit out of everyone in hopes that we'll pressure elected officials to pass some legislation they write up that undoes the privacy protections. So it's a calculated response, not a tantr

I read "Maltese Falcon" in the eighties. I remember vividly that story about Flitcraft, even if I had forgotten where it came from. It's really powerful.

What always confuses me about the „search has gotten so bad“ mentality is that it is often based on anecdotal evidence at best, and anecdotal recollection at worst. I can't speak for anybody else, just trying to find stuff online, no

Yes and also there are many that never use the address bar, they just google names. With this mindset, any text input with a lens icon is a way to reach pages... or sites... apps, stuff, whatever.

Interesting list, I guess it depends on your personal inclinations and circumstances, but if you're looking for ideas, it's a good start. I won't go to far as to tell what every programmer should try, just what were my person

I'd very much appreciate if someone could clarify what exactly is needed in terms of hardware and software to implement these suggestions. Would a five years old laptop work? Do you need a beefy GPU? Are you using some prepackaged soft

The nicest thing is the IDE, so using VSCode you're missing the point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvFCgc_YvAs (watch at 2x speed for an idea how fast I worked at the time :=)) I won't describe features that a

OK, I believe you, but then, does the trick described in the article work? I ask because if it works, the principle is the same: using a commonly used protocol to circumvent limitations. It used to be easier to do then, it's more invol

The SSL negotiation part happens before any other communication. Once the encrypted connection is established, how do you analize the protocol? Edit: I tested that time ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38753897 And

Long ago I used stunnel to establish encrypted connections to remotely access my sockets servers. https://www.stunnel.org/ It didn't really matter what the protocol was, the client and server just see each other. IIRC

by narag 3y ago
It seems the same to me: using a port that's open for a commonly used protocol, so http (80) in the 90s, https (443) now. Of course the protocol is different, that's the point!

Nice. But (unpopular opinion) my favourite is Expose that clones Windows XP's Luna. The included analog clock is from Windows 7 though. They say Luna is plasticky and teletubbies land. But it just makes me happy :) What I miss is files

300 cc should be similiar to around 800 lichess. 800 is very low in Lichess. If you can think just two moves ahead without losing pieces, you get 1000 easily. For improving longer time controls are better. Yes and no. There are differ
