So what’re they gonna name it this time? Altera? Hope they kept the original documentations.

I’m not lying. Also not sure why I’m downvoted. I occasionally receive spam messages from iMessage users , not conventional SMS. I do not know how these spammers manage to send them, but the senders are always identified with an email in t

Huh, I used to receive spam on iMessage with blue bubbles. In fact the only blue bubbles I receive are spam.

Ditto. Got to know Kagi via HN and found myself needing to use Kagi more often. Google search feels more like shopping search nowadays.

They mentioned “leaf-level” visualization, meaning they have now 3D data to work with instead of a pixel on a map. Practically this means they can simulate time of day coverage, and can plan for tree species for different foliage heights.

So can we say iPhone pictures are not admissible in the court of law? Since the photos are more like hand drawings (I.e. subject to interpretation by the algo) than a snapshot of time.

Brother didn’t stop innovating, they innovated by figuring out a way to make their printer cheaper to manufacture and still reliable enough for that once a quarter use.

Hmmm yeah. Google Travel used to provide very useful n-days itinerary on a city level, where it plans out, and shows on a map, the most efficient way to visit a city. That feature seems to have been nuked and I’m sad.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, how does a noncompete gets enforced anyway? Unless you’re a person legally required to make public your job, I don’t see how any private entities can trace your work history.

You need to increase the camera’s exposure time (integration time) and decrease the ISO. Could barely see the screen.
