I always did hold the fob close to my palm (with the keyring parts between my fingers) and pointing the fob "up", hopefully aligning a whip in there. It does work better this way, and I can also hold it high up. My theory was that

This reminds me of my app "Delayed" which I started writing when Android phones were new, and I was commuting by train in Stockholm, Sweden. I worked about a 2 minute walk from the train platform, but I still wanted to know if the

Agree, the american perspective is hard to understand for me as a european. On the other hand, people with extreme needs, I think, more often write online. It is normal even in my european country seeing a bunch of comments just not agreein

I don't believe this is illegal in Sweden, not in spirit anyway. Our unions notwithstanding, you are implied to be "loyal" your employer whatever that means. I assume this would not be very loyal. Now firing people generally

I often end up in this concept of the "real world" when talking about kids and their up-bringing. Iv'e always felt school needs to be much more individually tailored, and this connects to my real-world thinking about kids: I

Yes, likely at different levels. For example, if I log into my myheritage account, I have 27000 DNA matches which I can download a .csv of, which includes the matching parts. I can also access the trees of those users that share theirs. Thi

You DNA is shared with others, so any amateur geneaologist is likely to be able to find out who, approximately, you are. The exact info though should be easy to protect. Just dont give it away. But remember that other close family members t

How about every other site that does, more or less, the same thing?

Yes, and remember that data is commonly widely shared. Because, its mostly about long dead people? The real breach is for recently deceased people (here the time span varies greatly, but dead for ~100 years is definitely enough if you ask m

This is awesome! These are good candidates for building your own stuff, I would say. I do really need a garage door sensor for example.

Yes, I was going to say this. Not sure if the books use any kind of alarm system? Here Im pretty sure they cannot be using it, since you can scan the books up to like 10 at a time via RFC (?) and Ive never seen a magnetic alarm tag being de

My 2015 Passat is of course very similar. It has in a way the perfect amount of features, regular backup cam, parking sensors all around, acc. Actually ours don't even have satnav and I don't care since it has Android Auto. Id lik

I mean bikes are soo much better than one-wheels and boards... the way you can "just" use tha brakes more or less freely on a bike without worrying about getting your CoG right before you do.. priceless. But yes, of course people

Yes, my childrens preschool was awesome but at the same time I did wonder why the need for tablets at such a young age. One reason stated was that it was a matter of equality, parents who could not afford tech means their children are at a

Yep, and those smartly can fold down! Also used for storms I assume.

I at one point made up my own encryption scheme. Basically XOR:ing with a repeating password, but I was swapping nibbles in a (what I thought) clever scheme making it "very hard" to break it. The sweet child I was.

Sweden has very strict tests for the drivers license, and afaik you can easily pass those without ever turning (more than a fairly small bit) and changing the gear at the same time. With the planning you are supposed to learn this is kind o

I assume that would require such an insane amount of "framework" around it as to be practically impossible, not literally impossible?

Same here, with a samsung s21 and the built-in camera app.

I wonder how this differs from inkplate. I bought a inkplate 2 just for fun and received it yesterday, and I was flabbergasted at how long it took to clear the screen. I mean it flashes the screen well over 20 times... I can't imagine

What Ive wondered about word-vectors is, are different meanings split or not? A word having many meanings would otherwise means its vectors are more "smeared" out and less accurate I guess. Although, I guess that might be good for

I remember the woman in Sweden that was found, apparently, beaten to death. Of course the husband was the prime suspect. Took a long good while for them to agree that she was in fact killed by a moose. He even sued for wrongful accusation:

This is begging to use genetic programming instead. I used to do GP experiments all the time when I was younger, its such an easy algorithm and can produce some very interesting results. Compared to deep learning, genetic algoritms in gener

I have re-watched Alien easily 10 times, and to me it never gets old. It's my favorite movie, which is weird because in general I don't really like horrors. Sci-fi and drama though is good.

As a Swede, I agree. Even official reports agree with this nowadays. 10 years or so ago it was not ok to even breath a word about this in Sweden, nothing bad came from immigration, but with the success of the right-wing Svergigdemokraterna
