99%+ of people wouldn't use this, they would just try the search engine, see that the results suck, then stop using it. It could be useful for power users, though.

I was just analizing the Luhn algorithm and... the step to reverse the digits doesn't seem to do anything, right? None of the other steps depend on it and in the end you just sum all of the digits together... Is it because the amount o

If you like that sound, there's a subreddit called ActivationSound that's literally just videos of that. Probably my favorite subreddit.

I just wanted to say that I hate when multiple part articles (or videos, etc.) are not posted all at the same time. It feels like I'm worse off now than I was before reading this. Edit: Sorry, that was a bit harsh. I do hope that thing

It's not ideal, but if you heavily blur all the info except name (which they probably know already) and birth date (what they're after), they accept it with no problem.

That's an insane amount that will most likely destroy your shoulders if you don't do any pulling to compensate. It might not be the form, but the imbalance between push/pull.

It's pretty infurating that I've had a Youtube account since 2006 (15 years ago), and now they're asking me whether i'm over 18. A basic calculation on their end could filter the accounts based on age, given the TOS of w

It's more of a prevention than a cure, but Stoicism (the philosophy, not the abstract concept) is a good philosophy of life that would help strengthen you for this kind of negatives. You wouldn't stop caring or feeling, but you&#x

Do it iteratively one after the other to see if after a while the results are unrecognizable from the originals. Like those experiments that translated a text between languages to create gibberish.

You could add a "fast" or "lite" or similar subdomain that avoids anything like the complaints that have been shared here. Not perfect (the default should be the best), but at least you could avoid this problems as a use

This will sound very stupid or like a joke, but I'm not joking: Maybe if you play (almost) exclusively games with permadeath, where the consequences of dying are bigger, could at least hard-wire some kind of survival instinct in your h

Every time I read about people's obsessions with keyboards I feel like an outsider. Am I weird? I've been using the same Logitech K120 that costs around 10€/$10, my muscle memory is important. The keys are in the usual places

Some of us ask ourselves the same thing. NANO, for instance, has no fees and is basically instantaneous (<1s). But unlike Bitcoin, Elon Musk isn't hyping it, and you can't make money by using computer farms, so most people don&

I can vouch for this. I haven't really done anything on the web interface, I use it for file sync like i used to use Dropbox, and I have clients in Windows, Linux and Android and it just works.
