For what it’s worth (and it’s probably not much), it doesn’t cost that much to commission comic book-style art from an actual artist online. When you do that, the proceeds go to an artist, not to an AI company that stole from them and a s

This has zero resemblance to Miyazaki’s style. (And I say that as someone who isn’t a fan of this idea at all.)

We’re talking about copyright here. A typeface on its own isn’t copyrightable. The judge ruled that turning a typeface into a digital font involves writing a nontrivial computer program, which is a creative work under US copyright law. That

This is just obnoxious. If you really do live in a much, much better country, then why don’t you get offline and enjoy it instead of spending your time trying to convince Americans that theirs is so much worse?

It really isn’t such a big deal. Switching to A4 would mean replacing every single binder, folio, cover, and clip in the country, and for what? A slightly taller sheet of paper? US printers can already print A4 if necessary without any issu

They are computer programs. Not sure why you’d crudely insult the judge for saying that.

Homebrew is 99% IO-bound and this will be too. Installing (prebuilt) packages doesn't require much logic. If this tool supports parallel downloads, it will be 10x faster than Homebrew, but it won't have anything to do with the l

Not sure who in this story you’re identifying as a “conservative” (much less who in our current federal government you think is actually a conservative).

Clickjacking hasn’t been a real issue for years. And if it were happening, you’d be able to see it in your web browser’s developer tools.

It’s because you were younger. As a “Gen Z” person, there’s a huge difference between 2010s fashions and the fashions of today.

Definitely the most polished game of this sort that I’ve seen. Nice work!

No, you need to take a long exposure. Multiple exposures may improve the quality but isn’t necessary at all.

Palm kernel oil, yes. Palm oil, no. Both come from the palm fruit and are frequently confused for one another.

Don’t know if I’d say dates are prototypical. Oil palms grow palm fruit, which is probably the most generic (and economically important) palm product.

Even if it had worked the way you thought it did, that’s absolutely bizarre.

Are you planning to send them a cease and desist for having AI read your comments?

UTM is OK for light workloads, but if you can justify the cost of Parallels, you’ll be far better off using that.

WebKit and Blink aren’t very similar. There’s only a small amount of WebKit code left in Blink, and their architectures are completely different now.

> $500k average for a tech heavy product company doesn't sound too far off. Tailscale puts salary ranges on their job postings. The salaries aren’t bad, but no, they aren’t $500k.

If you’re in the US, most oil is domestic, but obviously that doesn’t make it much better. (If you’re not, sorry - “my way of life and my values” is very US-coded language.)

Yeah, of course. I’m a renter, I understand. Some states [1] have laws allowing tenants to install chargers, although obviously not all renters have designated parking spaces. Where I live (NYC), most people rent and the idea of a “tenant p

I just don’t buy this argument as a reason people don’t want EVs. The primary benefit of an EV is that you ~never need to stop and “refuel” it unless you’re making a long road trip. You can install a charger at home, even a very slow one th
