There are people who put old VHS on Youtube that seems to be a pretty gruesome job. See Swedish achivist https://www.youtube.com/@RosaMannen Interesting that you can get Teletext from the VHS, and sad that it is now lost af

Notice the comment "In this codebase", and all the other the other caveats in the good code review. Consistency can be good.

IA helped a lot of people, what they did was right. Maybe not legal.

I honestly think what IA did was vital for their survival. The IA can not exist without the media library. I see that many people here do not care about IA and their goal. I am not sure why that is. Maybe HN is filled with people in places

IA did not charge nor did they get revenue from their users in other ways. They did have a system to handle borrowing and make it cumbersome to read stuff. That is an important distinction.

It only takes a moment of weakness to fall for it, you need to spread information of these scams so people are prepared for it. Sex is shamefull for so many people that they will not talk about being scammed.

I wonder if there are still overcrowding at that station, or if it really was fixed in 2023. A bit of a Streisand effect going on here.

It was a dream for ME. I always think of that teacher when I do code reviews. The important part is how you manage to communicate things effectively. I had one friend who never managed to get better and complained, not loudly but it was cle

People react differently to task and teachers, there is no one way to do it. I got good grades because a teacher let us repeat a task like "write a report" seven-fourteen times. The feedback was given by him in class highlighting

Reading the docs, I consistently get blank page with an error after less than 30s: "Application error: a client-side exception" it feels strange that a text document needs to be an Application. I feel so old.

This has failed me because code get pretty gnarly fast, many things I thought was obvious was missed by people smarter than me. I think as long as it is a tool for discussions rather than grades it is good though.

I agreed I have gone so far as to replace strings in HTML with the date in the <time> tag, but it is not always available in that tag especially now with Javascript frameworks taking over. Further your wording makes it clear to me why

As a 17 year old I got there by running an hour three times a week, maybe I just had the body for it low weight and long legs. You will be top 25% in our local 10 km competition[1]. The track is considered perfect for running in a fast pace

There are lots of government programs doing that, lots of companies trying to compete with Google has invested in OSM. The success really is that it has all gone into OpenStreetmap. OSM could do a better job acknowledging these partners, bu

Depends, we managed to OCR all pixels from a standard 128x64pixel OLED. Doing 20 kB/s as a debugging interface was marvelous. Someone smart used the mounting holes on the screen to mount a fixed Finder pattern (the squares in QR Codes)

I block all external resources on my pages, but sure it works well in most places! It think the default policy should be block on most pages.

Writing "layout next" in GDB gives you a TUI: Text user interface, like midnight commander. There are so many good debuggers in graphical environments I just wondered if there were any better ones for text. Edit: I really like thi

It is basically Scapy with 200 lines of code to make it easier to start. That means tshark is alot better as a cli/DSL. Interactiveness is not what Scapy is good at, it is marvelous when you need to e.g. send events to other services b

Complexity is mostly exponentiellt worse in the unknowns and you can not graph what you already know. The point in the article is that when we read code we need another visualization to change or mental model. I can scan code and find most

"one more lane" a buss lane means more hard and hot surfaces in a city. As long as you just add hard surfaces you are still making things worse. With that said buss lanes are more important than car lanes.

The workplace with out old people is boring, when ever you are in an environment with only one age group you should be careful. The group think among people the same age is terrible, much worse than many ideologies. Be as scared of your own

My wisdom of commenting is people will always latch in to the worst parts, so you either have to commit to the worst things you write or write in a more bland way. Regarding your comment I have the same issue with how badly engineers simpl

Qube OS is nice, but when people are paid to get things done security is not forgotten but cut by a thousand paper cuts. It might all seem to be based on a secure design somewhere but even in small teams of 50 people you will always find pe

Corrupting legal processes with a combination of weasel talk and bureaucracy is always the first step towards a Navalnyj situation. When that happens to political dissidents how ever bad they are we should all feel great concern. But I migh

Maybe what is missing is some simple rules, that we should all follow, with a good reason why they matter. The only way to achieve that is to make the laws enforceable. They should probably try hard to fine some government organisations as

It seems like a good idea but breaks down, a shell is text for good reasons. Psh is ok in Windows land on Microsoft tools, but IMO you might as well use Python if you want those features. I run the same bash script on five platforms while t

It all depends, next Debian will mount tmp in ram, LWN has a great article about it as usual. They talk about the problem with clean up, e.g. tmux sessions are stored in tmp. https://lwn.net/Articles/975565/

Not sure what you mean, I think it is more about buyer culture than what class of bicycle it is. So saying "Dutch" might be a good short cut.

Fenders needs to be big and cover all the way down to the ground back and front. Small fenders help with the worst, but good fenders are really worth it.
