I really enjoyed spending a bit of my morning with these two implementations of the concept. I prefer your idea of treating the question as a proper puzzle with a 1-submission limit. The "calculator" UI took a whole 2 minutes to u

The iffiest part is sharing a MS Office license key. The post fails to mention any overview on what kinds of "debloating" the scripts are supposed to do.

My observation is that HN intentionally downranks highly commented threads. I used to think of it as unfair, but now it truly makes sense, considering: - Posts with high comment-to-vote ratio often have political, scandalous or other kinds

You can make WoL work with a forwarded UDP port on your router. Most WoL tools also tolerate the use of a domain instead of an IP. Obviously this can't shut your server down. Downside: unencrypted magic packets sent over the network co

No - the point is to quickly detect random websites that simply duplicate known favicons! Matching hashes can only occur in these cases: - the site is a careless impostor - the site is the real deal - a hash collision

Don't check for Moiré patterns until you're looking at an image file at 1:1 pixel size. Moiré patterns can appear on top of a perfect photo whenever the image is naively downscaled without gamma correction. This also happens withi

I love giving examples and context in a PR description. Squash-merged PRs can become cumbersome snowballs, but the final commit message should elaborate in proportion.

Maybe the flute's pitch could be decoded back into the required fingering combination. This way the player could treat each hole as an individual button. The actual notes might not all sound musical (or be properly distinguishable).

Good thoughts! I think there is much more nuance as I disagree with some of your points: > I believe that impostor syndrome is a lack of overconfidence in one's abilities - that implies that you have the the ability to assess compet

This would be required for a true DAC, but not here: - A physical speaker already acts as a filter due to inertia - The PWM frequency and its square harmonics sit far beyond the human hearing range

ISO 8601, ironically, also defined acceptable a (now deprecated) set of truncated date formats such as YY-MM-DD and YYMMDD.

A true observation, especially since many European countries (or just some citizens) wish to get rid of DST. However, ±1 hour is not much of an error when talking about a time delay of at least a year.

This is the only sane policy. Timezone conversion must be delayed to the very last moment before displaying time to users. If I needed to define a daily alarm in a local wall clock time, I'd happily deal with a zoneless dateless hour-m

Most (if not all) digital keyboards also support receiving MIDI which will be played by the piano's own sound engine! This will probably require assigning the received MIDI to a different channel than 0 to allow simultaneous play wi

The fact that weighted digital pianos are cheaper than equivalent plain MIDI keyboards is my pet peeve.
