The ring sizing has been such a debacle, first with needing to buy (!) their special ring sizing kit because standard sizing wouldn’t be accurate they said, and now they say that the ring sizing kits weren’t true to size and suggest this:
When in doubt, order a larger size. You can always adjust a larger Index 01 to feel smaller with a foam adhesive or clip but you can’t make it larger!
Size up and shim it with foam!
Moves are trusted
Indeed, you can just play e1e8 and capture the opponents king (which doesn’t end the game). It’s a digital chessboard, not a chess engine.
“Strata doesn’t just show the data. It makes the call.”
Scroll scroll scroll…
“Strata informs your decisions — it doesn't make them for you.”
I hope you don’t kill someone.
My child has an SE, and the only downside we’ve seen is that without a connected iPhone or WiFi network, the battery life is unimaginably bad. That little LTE radio works hard in the school.
I'll never understand why people think this looks human:
What Made This Time Different
This time, I didn't just install FreeBSD.
I created a system for learning and success.
Clear goal: FreeBSD as my daily driver
Daily habit: 10 minutes minimum
Accountability: post the journey on Linkedin
The illustrated “hackers” clothing
There are two attempts to render an American flag on that page and they’re both wrong
I'm trying to remember if anyone complained like this about the Apple Card offers in Apple Wallet. For some reason advertising their credit card is completely fine, but advertising their movie is where people get out the pitchforks? Not defending either, I think both are egregious. I just think it's interesting.
Excited for this—was NOT expecting it to tell me to follow them on Twitter after signing up! That one sure hits different than the last time…
That blog is simply saying the same thing as GP—that it’s a term from gov agencies, and musing about applying the same ideas in their work.
Not the author, but when I use the phrase I mean each commit accomplishes a single important thing, but also that each commit is complete: it includes necessary tests for example. IMO every commit that lands on `main` must pass the test suite (this means intermediate commits should be squashed into that atomic commit).
Even ignoring the rude name-calling, I usually find that these kind of comments are poorly thought-out and come from an unrealistic idea of name ownership. I wasn’t familiar with any other D2 and want to give the benefit of the doubt, so I went through a few pages of search results for “D2 language”. Didn’t see any other projects. Are you thinking of the D3 JavaScript charting library?
But the app is literally called “Astro App”
Why a xitter post of a screenshot with no link when the full article is public? https://support.docusign.com/s/document-item?language=en_US&...
You’re saying the university denied their application because they referred to their homebrew device as a “laptop” and not a “cyberdeck”? I’m far from any of the worlds involved, but that just seems extremely unlikely to be the reason. In fact I’d expect the opposite—the uni not understanding that an applicant’s “cyberdeck” is actually a homemade laptop—a concept anyone can grasp
What kind of issue do you have in mind? By all accounts, the functionality or OpenOffice, LibreOffice, and Google’s suite are the same as Microsoft Office. There’s no theft unless they _actually stole intellectual property_
Or perhaps their coin was biased
Show a picture of an adult riding one, you cowards.
Cones become more critical with the proliferation of non-human drivers
Ironic. Cones are the self-driving car’s only weakness, and yet they can’t survive without them
I’m confused about what “quality domains” means here. I’d honestly never heard of the `.ong` TLD, it seems intended for non-governmental organization. If you’re going to sell subdomains as “quality”, why not get a `.com`?
Sure, and I think all-party consent should be required if a call has any guests. My point was much shallower—just that OP/Zoom is using language that suggests “customer consent” is some separate thing they would ask for, when in fact using the software (accepting the TOS) is that consent.
Say more things. Are you suggesting that by “customer consent”, they mean the consent of someone other than those of us paying for zoom? That makes no sense, and is not supported by the use of “customer” in their TOS.
“Customer consent” as in, accepting the TOS by continuing to use the product? Have some respect for the intelligence of your users. If you’re playing dirty lawyerball in HN comments you can’t be trusted to act in good faith.
Intellectual property: it represents what kinds of data you maintain, their naming, and their relation. That’s valuable on its own and also points to what your software does.
Security: well, see above—knowing what data is stored determines your value as a target.
Now is it the _best_ way to target an adversary? Probably not.
Sure it’s extreme, but I’d argue the “terrible terrible” idea is allowing the tyranny of beta software to run roughshod on the road, while the humans have to cope
Autonomous vehicles should be required to have a “kill zone”: a little square—away from any potential passengers—that cops can shoot to disable the vehicle entirely. If it were a human driving into a crime scene they wouldn’t hesitate, how come when it’s a driverless car all they can say is “oh, hey, stop… what should we do here?”
In your experience, which happens more often (assuming continuous use): a ballpoint runs out of ink, or a pencil becomes dull/breaks?
it WAS tech
That’s a pretty small view of “tech”. Development of repeatable agricultural practices for predictable yield is absolutely a technological accomplishment (and not just because there were machines involved)
ChatGPT can’t fetch URLs, right? Is this just extrapolation based on the title, or did you paste the article into chat?
Expecting an interviewee to pick up on that and manage the conversation is completely unrealistic, and it’s unfair to put that on them—if you’re not interested in the direction they took the question, have the guts to say so and redirect them.
