When I was a kid I used to take a bus from East to West coast of Italy in Summer. Despite my best efforts to calculate the side with minimum sun exposure, I always ended up on the sunny side. This also happened when doing the opposite of my

I just read my comment and realized how unfriendly it was, sorry about that. Thank you for not replying as rudely as I did.

Don't know that op means but I can relate. Not long ago I was searching for an apartment to rent in my hometown to move closer to my workplace and I noticed that prices went crazy high compared to few years ago, so high that I can&#x27

It depends on where you live I guess, in my country (Italy) that's quite a high salary. Anyway "We hope the workcation visa will allow high-earning foreigners to stay in Korea's various regions and vitalize the local economy,

I know you shouldn’t comment about votes, but why downvotes? You might be against copyright in certain cases but technically, if not legally, the point holds.

May I suggest adding some additional context to the home page? While I heard about Sentry I find difficult to understand what Spotlight does. I might not be the intended target audience though.

I’d rather buy an electric Brompton, though this is much cheaper.

Well he really inspired me to consider kidney donation, if only I hadn't just discovered that I have only one.

Modern icons are mostly useless. I remember old apple design guidelines recommending to design icons with recognizable shapes. iPhone icons are all square making impossible to identify the right one at a first glance. Same for the MacOS doc

Emacs has such a steep and long learning curve that I couldn’t justify learning it while doing actual work. Still attracted by it, any suggestion for a smoother adoption?

I might be a mediocre developer but I find ChatGPT invaluable for my job. It finds potential problems in my code, suggests solutions, helps with libraries I don’t know about, helps in drafting solutions when given a high level description o

I couldn't find that option, I think they removed it. I improved it by changing the theme, dark themes seem to render a bolder text.

I'm not sure this is a good idea. I had to replace my iPhone batteries only twice since iPhone 3. Price was reasonable considering the price of the iPhone itself. Waste was managed and hopefully recycled by Apple. How many people would

Does anyone know why it looks much better on VSC than WebStorm on Mac? Would love to love IntelliJ products but I can't stand the way they render text.

Does anyone know of a tool that can emulate the pointer inertia you'd find with a trackball, but on a trackpad? This way, you could 'launch' the pointer across the screen. As a long-time trackball user, I believe this feature

They are a search company, yet they decided to give the same name to two completely different web frameworks. Ok one is called AngularJS and the other one is Angular, but still.

Why do you hear a persistent 60hz sound? Could it be linked to the AC frequency? I couldn't find anything about it online.

I don’t believe that this is populism, as others said. No one cares about English words in bureaucracy and probably few of their voters knew or cared about synthetic meat. I think that these people are nostalgic of the good old times and th

No it wasn't a complete shut in, and I consider getting on an airplane a major achievement. Re Omicron, my simplistic explanation is that its spread is mainly caused by people eating in restaurants. At least irrationally I felt protect

I'm jealous of people who manage to have an almost normal life. I live in a constant latent distress who might be devastating me. My 1 year old daughter had a good time by being with her parents 100% of her time but I'm very conce
