   Does anyone have any idea how do they take pictures of the plasma? That seems quite hard considering the temperatures and the strong magnetic field.

   Yeah, I think you are right. "Older" would be my choice between those two.

   The user "sama" (the OP) is Sam Altman, president of Y Combinator.

   I would also like to have this functionality readily available! :) Maybe something as laconic as "front" would suffice?

   Can someone explain to a layman what does the truncation parameter do?

   That's great! For some reason I thought it was an incompatible new platform.

   What kind of apps does Elementary OS support? Can I install .deb packages or other Linux-compatible ones? Otherwise it's going to be hard to adopt an OS if there are not enough of the apps I use, no?

   Could this an effect of the size of Facebook? With the amount of users they have, they are bigger than many nation states (and they also cross borders), so maybe people perceive the difference a bit immaterial?

    Do you have any references for this? It definitely seems plausible and matches my (very limited) experience with a few friends that have joined Google, but I was wondering if you have any links. I guess you would have to accept joining with

    Actually, while re-watching the video, I realized that they reference the Dead Homer Society in minute 16:03!

    I think your summary is correct, although I would add to point 2 (or a third point) about the complex nature of the jokes. They weren't just one liners but instead would build up gradually. That's what I like about this analysis,

    Yes. The pictures look strange indeed.

    There's a very interesting YouTube video that has a bit more of an explanation on why The Simpsons had a decline. I liked how they analyze the show and IMO it does a great job explaining why lots of people loved the show up until seaso

    Interesting that they use the term "driver-partner" in some parts but just "driver" in others. I guess they want to avoid liability as much as possible? Would it really be possible to use a blog post in a legal proceedin

    Awesome! Just what I was looking for. Missed this functionality so much! Thanks!

    Oh, FireGestures. How I miss that. The speed at which I could switch tabs, close them, open new links without clicking a button felt like magic. Hopefully someone will make something like that for a recent FF version.

    Good point. It never even occurred to me that they would sell music so no wonder they are bad a it, at least for now.

    Just thinking out loud here, but, how long until Steam starts offering a Music service? Maybe not for big labels/artists, but if they did something like Greenlight for indie bands... I could see it working... Maybe. Or am I way off her

    Oh wow. Awesome. Definitely not a walk in the proverbial park. Thanks for the details!

    Any idea what made it the scariest times? I mean, obviously going on a spacewalk must be pretty intense. But is there a particular difference in doing it to the Hubble? Or was it scary because he was repairing a very expensive piece of equi

    Ah. That's interesting. And in no way I meant to imply that you were full of yourself :) I was just curious as I've only done some front-end dev and dealing with CORS was a minor part of it and I'm always interested in HNers

    Genuine question: why do you feel you've cut your teeth more than most? I.e. what kind of dev work do you do that makes you have to deal with this more than the average developer?

    Check out Express Gateway: https://www.express-gateway.io/ Not sure if it would be useful for your case but it's a new-ish API gateway that I've been playing around with, although haven't done anything seriou

    And here's a Java project with similar functionality (although I'm not sure it will have near the same accuracy). [0] He also got some legal threats just for publishing code he created himself. [0] http://royvanrijn.co

    What exactly is a "neural image processing chip"? A cursory search didn't turn up anything simple to understand. My uninformed guess is that it's a chip that does neural network stuff to offload image processing for anti

    There's a very interesting explanation on why you can consider money as being debt by Paul Grignon [0]. Of course, there are critics of this view and it's not necessarily 100% correct, but it does seem plausible. [0] https:/
