I love the way you can zoom in for a diagram with more detail and them easily zoom back out. This is what I wanted from Obsidian but it isn't quite as slick.

The highest authorities have indicated that the drones are not U.S. military [1]. I guess they could be playing semantic games. Could be defense contractor owned and operated as opposed to directly military controlled. In any case, if they

I just acquired a Baofeng UV9R-PRO as my first semi-tweakable radio. Seems like a pretty good piece of kit one step up from fixed channel GMRS units. I've been able to learn some basics so far and managed to listen to some local repeat

Couldn't they add something in their TOS indicating that AI assistance is common and they aren't responsible for what their content creators do? What if they spin the service as "an experience" rather than specifically a

Okay so months can pick up ultrasonic sounds, plants emit such sounds when stressed, and the moths prefer plants that aren't emitting stress signals to increase likelihood of offspring survival. Every part of that seems pretty amazing.

Nursing assistants are some of the most likely to be injured or ill. Similar to corrections officers and much more so than meat cutters ore tire changers. I found that surprising.

What are the advantages of trying to use fake c++ instead of actual c++ for their use case? I'm sure there are / were smart people working on the project. Do they keep decision records? Have you had a conversation with the relevan

What's so enraging? A company puts out some propaganda about how wonderfully world changing it is. Not all that unusual or unexpected.

Kind of seems a bit incomplete. The entire ponzi scheme debt / consume cycle is a trap. Black Friday is just a small but highly promoted and gross part off it.

That's a great list. I have a similar list and the aliases grow out of frequently used arguments. For example, I found myself often doing an ls -Altch and so lsth was born. I find that aliases that or born of frequently used arguments

The paper uses the term "adaptive evolution", so using the words interchangeably seems almost encouraged, definitely understandable.

This seems great at first, but more so as an explanation of how AM and FM differ; one being by amplitude (brightness), and the other by frequency (color). What I don't see is how it explains why one would work better than the other. If

I guess it's possible to be non dominant in either hand. I write left and eat with a fork or spoon in the left, but I bat, bowl, or throw with the right. In the boxing gym, I'm not a southpaw. But I play lefty guitar.

I was confused by this part of the article: For Marx, the poet of economics, when a person’s innate value is replaced with exchange value, it is as if we’ve been reduced to “a mere jelly.” What's wrong with basing your worth on somethi

Using development tools is one thing. Packing your basic web site with 50,000+ SLOC worth of run time dependencies is quite a different story. When you use a framework like react, or vue, or svelte, you're bringing in a massive depen

How can Reddit and Twitter turn openly hostile to users? They're just platforms for users to submit posts. I haven't seen a major change in Reddit since the UI overhaul in 2018. And even that I wouldn't call hostile. Just ann

You're supposed to think it looks like someone shouting "Help! Help! I can't swim!" while effectively moving their arms to create splashing that is easily discernible from all of the other commotion going on in the pool.
