It's strange as the Magic Editing feature, whilst showing promise turned out to be massively underwhelming... It's kind of slow, so you can't really experiment freely and the results usually aren't that great (maybe with

I get the point, and with irresponsible parties (as is fairly widespread in most companies) there's a real risk here. However the analogy of a meteorologist seems poor as that job is focused on predicting the weather - the typical dev

Has anyone found any regular sources for PhD theses in the computing sphere? I recall looking a few years back and finding Cambridge had a good repository online but not sure of others, but I'll Google it again now The Cambridge site i

London Underground announcements in certain stations seem to break Bluetooth really frequently. I suspect that at some point, the message is being transmitted by radio and this must be at a frequency that interferes. Also seen on platform W

I get that major participants have switched but what's the developer experience like? It's a while since I read up on this but previously it seems relatively hard to get set up for any local usage of http3 - has that changed recen

I wonder whether USB Network might be an option to reduce the latency a little. L Plus then keeps the Pi WiFi free for regular use rather than as a private AP network.

I recall the game recording feature feeling pretty cutting edge at the time, as you could pause it and rotate/fly round the scene, it felt really fluid and responsive. I guess now it would be common place but back then it definitely se

Yes, one of the many delightful differences! I'm being picky but "another" seems a bit redundant there, right?

Does this actually work well in practice? The rules seem like they would be incredibly brittle and not necessarily able to deal with countless variations that are seem in English.

This is good, but better yet is to then remind the manager again at the key point in the year/cycle right before performance reviews are being filled in. This has the most chance of having an impact plus it adds weight to the complimen

Yes, this is important where you're online but not on a high throughput connection or any part of the connection has intermittent faults. The disruption from even a few outages is enough to prefer to run things locally. We had issues w

Yes, I'm with you on considering this to be a guess culture thing (since you have to be sensitive to what they might need, likely want)

I'm not getting a sense of toxicity from this discussion. Sure, people are disagreeing and have distinct positions but the manner of discussion seems constructive. >> This was never said. Quotes don't have to used solely to

KDE Plasma is great and actually seems to have inspired a bunch of Win11 approaches, so it is possible to get things looking good but there's definitely truth in the sentiment above: a huge chunk of OSS software looking terrible. There

I recall a trip to Austria as a boy in the early nineties and having it related by an Austrian (who dealt with international types/tourists a lot) that the opening of a McDonald's Drive-Thru located somewhat up towards the mountai

A great resource, thank you for the effort you've put into it. It's already really good but you're getting some great feedback below too.

All good points. Perhaps a passing reference with a link back to the intro chapter (or wherever it's covered) in the chapters where it's used, since it's easier to dip into one of the later graphics chapters without having se

This is a fine example, because the text has a few grammatical errors but they do not impair intelligibility so shouldn't matter. The challenge comes where errors may have impacted intelligibility or worse still changed their meaning.

Great question. I'm not aware of any concrete reasons, but I suppose issues relating to these sorts of points: - despite the sky being generally less constrained than ground delivery there are challenging obstructions, which are potent

Interesting! I didn't realize it would be that easy and like that by default. This is why I love the kind of discussions that crop up on HN!

When I see screenshots with window decorators like that I always wonder if there's someone actually using an ancient computer or if the screenshots are just really really old. I tend to guess it's the latter.

Sorry, I may have got this wrong! I honestly thought they got removed but it looks like this isn't happening for me (at least not right away), unless it's the scenario you mention where it's only one away from being killed. I

I suppose you could change further aspects of the current behaviour, but the issue with that idea is that the flagged items disappear currently, so you wouldn't get to see the "[you flagged]" entry, unless you got to the comm

Strange they should mention spam when these last few days I've seen a steady stream of near identical advertisers appear in spam-like ads. The advertisers have very similar profile pictures which look generated, use a particular colour
