I know what Remarkable is, but without clicking the link, I have no idea what this new product is.

Remember when you could get an Uber ride all the way across town for $5? It is way too early to know what prices for these services will actually cost.

Real world social credit is soft and squishy and local and fades or changes over time. Digital social credit is (potentially) an automatically calculated number with strict and unyielding consequences that follows you around for your entire

I’m trying to skim this but there is a lot of meandering and I’m still not sure what their main point is.

This has very little to do with Israel/Hamas. It could be false information about a lewd act, a violent crime, a racist comment, an affair, gross incompetence, a medical condition, religious blasphemy, etc, etc, etc. People make judgme

Ah, I was thinking of friends on an individual basis, not in geopolitical terms.

What do you mean by putting "friends" in scare quotes?

This is clever! I can’t stand drafting long texts on the phone. I’ve always said that sending texts from your computer is one of the most underrated features of macOS.

Do you mean prompting for permission to scan local networks? “Localization” normally refers to translating an app into another language.

It's a great site, I use it all the time to scope out possible routes and connections. Mostly just searching for a city/airport and seeing what all the direct flights are. I'm fortunate to live by a major hub so I hate havi

The version on the right side of the “proportion” axis is monospaced.

Might as well just quote the one single sentence that gives any specific details: > Stem thicknesses were streamlined, more characters added, a monospace version drawn, dark mode functionality optimized.

Oof, “simulated likeness” is doing a lot of work here. I agree with you 100%

I would guess part of the issues is the subscripts. It’s annoying to type out formulas so it’s faster to just cut-n-paste.

I’m sure they “consented” by the fine print on the ticket checkout screen and some form of signs at the venue saying “by entering you consent to be filmed etc etc etc” Not that I think that’s valid morally but they are probably covered from

I have the MX Ergo, it’s great, but I’ve never felt the need to install the official Logitech software on macOS. Works fine without it.

This is a great success story, but I was really hoping the article would address the question in the title, that is, how can this be replicated in other cities? They mention repurposing existing underused lines, which certainly many cities

I know it's a cliche to say a Youtuber is unique, but Posy really is quite incredible. He's certainly not the only one making videos about vintage 80s technology but his great videography, calm tone, odd manner of speech, occasio

The point of the error correction is to allow QR codes to work despite wear and tear - dirt, fading, poor lighting, etc. If you "use up" the margin of allowed errors just to make it pretty, it's not going to work as well in

The innovation here mostly seems to be shrinking the QR code dots and putting them over a background image? Frankly, these look pretty terrible.

I was wondering about the “correctness” of the z-axis movement for the spherical helix. You could pick lots of different functions, including simple linear motion (z = c * t). This would obviously affect the thickness and consistency of th
