What kind of investment options exist for that? The amounts involved are usually very small and in 12 months the return will be insignificant. I bet you can count on your fingers the amount of people doing that worldwide, it's not real

What? Tea bags were made of cotton and paper decades before plastic came about. Plastic was likely introduced to lower costs and extend shelf life.

A lot of those “correctly charged” crimes would not happen at all, if the police did not aggressively corral and use riot control tactics on peaceful protests… it’s crazy that this is lawful.

The first rangefinder, micking this process mechanically, was invented in 1769. You’re essentially arguing for Lidar / sensor fusion. Do you have any sources for this being a significant factor in human depth estimation? “Infinity” foc

They are overselling the capabilities of their model a bit. The boy posing has facial artifacts, and the first “human” I generated is a painterly mermaid with a disjointed background. Results from photoai.com or many models available on civ

I found three or four different products branding themselves as “ClearGuard”, and they all look pretty much like my old anti-bruxism splint - hard and very uncomfortable. Do you have any links to the one you had success with?

I hope you realize how depressing this statement is. “Coding in more than one framework” is an extremely low bar to hire for.

E-commerce is an example that clearly does not need SPA features. It needs great performance and SEO, not flying bells and whistles. If a five input form takes week to fix, you have engineering problems beyond any choice of framework…

> Cheap hydrogen production at every use point They don’t address this directly, but is probably what they’re going for given the low deployment cost, no maintence, size, and comparison against other energy sources.

The point is that the original team did not produce a pure crystal, and impurities can be the source of novel properties in a material - you’ll know it as “doping” in the semiconductor industry. Other comments from more informed people in

Not at all, especially because React doesn’t do much dependency tracking on its own and is built for predictable UI updates and not performance. To be honest any parallel with frontend here is meaningless, reactivity and all the concepts

That’s the balance swinging the other way. Since React came into the scene SEO and accessibility have been afterthoughts, but that didn’t stop millions of static* websites being built with it. It’s still not possible to do partial hydration

It’s still worth the trade-offs vs developing for multiple platforms, but the experience continues to be incredibly painful. Libraries that handle basic features like geolocation or the clipboard have been spun out of the main org, and the

That was a lot of words to end up confirming that at least 46C was recorded as surface air temp (1.25m above ground) according to their own sources.

$250 is a ton of money outside ”the west” (I assume you mean US/Europe/Aus). It’s roughly the minimum wage in Brazil.

Nuclear facilities seem pretty fragile / demanding, I doubt one would survive any kind of apocalyptic event. The infrastructure supporting it will be gone.

And here we have a thread that made the rounds on Twitter a few weeks back, being plagiarized on Mastodon for clicks. This is the equivalent of content farming on the web, and absolutely sucks, how do we stop it?
