refresher

Any relation between furanocoumarins and coumarins? The latter is in cinnamon which I’ve read lately can be quite hazardous depending on the ingested amount.

I think if you understand the job creep, or like yourself if you understand the role they can play in democracy and free speech, the relevance will be understood. A surface level 'why do I need libraries I can just google', which I (possibly wrongly) assume many people have, might cause the questioning.

Then again, often when municipal libraries are threatened in some way, there does seem to be an earnest community outpouring of support for them. Perhaps the understanding and appreciation is there, but just quiet.

As someone with a masters and phd in library science fields but not actually working a library, some of the sentiment described here always came across, to me, as librarians (understandably) trying to make themselves relevant in a world where their relevance is increasingly easy to disregard. The enthusiasm they feel for their profession has always seemed extremely high as a result.

I do like the concept but no way to trigger a reminder is a bit of a personal dealbreaker.

iOS Reminders does

Helps keep Linked Data somewhat relevant, at least.

Certainly was expecting more highlighting of the camera in the article going by that title.

3. Act in moderation. Low to moderate doses of Vitamin D (e.g. 400 to 2000 IUs daily) have proven to be safe in trials. If you think there is a benefit and we just don't have enough data to prove it yet, you may be right. We do know the harms of taking too much, though, so supplement in moderation. And if you are taking Vitamin D, ask your doctor to check your blood levels.

I'll probably carry on with this then. I was taking a single 4000 IU pill every four days (which was the suggested dosage) but once a week for around 570 IUs a day should be fine. Frankly I hate blood tests and don't believe I'm D deficient, so I'd rather take a lower, even if useless, amount.

Similar in size to many portable setups you already see on HeadFi.

I notice if I submit a URL & title that already exist, the story doesn't get submitted and HN forwards me to the previously submitted post, but I submitted this yesterday so how does this avoid said redirection?

I use it pretty often. There are stories, show HN apps, or just random coding things that I feel I may want to have access to in the future, but are in a domain don't have enough of an interest in to bookmark. I guess if I had a generic "misc." bookmark folder that I didn't care to organize it would go here but I like keeping browser bookmarks minimal.

The relevant excerpts from the job listings:

Analysts must be capable of engaging and informing L7+ ER Principals (attorney stakeholders) on sensitive topics that are highly confidential, including labor organizing threats against the company, establish and track funding and activities connected to corporate campaigns (internal and external) against Amazon, and provide sophisticated analysis on these topics

Analysts must be capable of creating and deploying sophisticated search strings tailored to various business interests and used to monitor for future risk; Engaging business leaders (L6+) directly is core to this support, and may cover topics including organized labor, activist groups, hostile political leaders.

Analysts are expected to close knowledge gaps by initiating and maintaining engagement with topical subject matter experts on topics of importance to Amazon, including hate groups, policy initiatives, geopolitical issues, terrorism, law enforcement, and organized labor

But that didn’t stop me from getting hyped up to the point of forgetting that Musk is a con-artist at worst and just some dude with a bunch of money and charisma at best.

Seems a bit harsh.

The headlining quote on the site seems a bit silly. Does anyone consider their Mac trackpad to be "clunky"?

Alright, thanks for the reply. I've not found Affinity Photo or Pixelmator's to be that great, at least compared to the paint.net plugin I was using on Windows, so was hoping for an alternative.

Does Acorn have a ‘content aware fill’ type feature?

Regarding the claim that it feels more like paper than the first version, the Engadget reviewer felt otherwise:

The company says it used a new textured resin layer on top of the glass to make writing on the reMarkable 2 feel more like writing on paper, which I don't buy. If anything, the original reMarkable's screen had a more pronounced, paper-like grittiness that doesn't come through here. That's hardly a dealbreaker, though, because writing on the r2 still feels absolutely fantastic, I think this one strikes a better balance of tactility and flow. [0]

In the end I was considering between the Minidox , the Iris and the Dactyl-Manuform and the Gergo.

Kyria is another option - https://splitkb.com

Considering the end result, 'Dyson Sphere' would have been a more interesting name choice than Starlink.

All of these feel grossly oversimplified, but #2 and 4 especially. Many of the people protesting that are black, for example, may be unhappy with their lives and don't have high paying jobs, placing the blame on lack of opportunities in their area or the cost of education or whatever, but are far from being 'against education' and 'pro gangs'. To say that people who are vocal about current issues are not 'hard-working', are 'pro gang', 'against education', and not 'pro civilization' is borderline offensive.

I loved that after seeing the comparisons, you can notice that the article was writing in Signifier. Did not love the CPU usage of the page (at lease for me, it rocketed up. macOS, Safari)

Some slightly dystopian vibes in that first image.

Any ballmark suggested amount of K2 per 1000 IU of D? The supplement I'm currently taking is 100mcg of D3 with 75mcg of MK7 K2.

Something jarring about the 'Dracula PRO' colour scheme unlabelled advertisement in the middle of the article.

Their image says 'zsh auto-suggestions rocks!' but I had to add quite a bit to my .zshrc (in macOS at least) to get them to be good.

I’ve jokingly / seriously been waiting for things like this. I’m the type to go overboard with filtering and mute lists on twitter, but images are harder to deal with. I did have a 60,000 line pastebin that was used in conjunction with a Chrome extension to block Wojack and Pepe memes on 4chan using md5 hashes, but something not rely on specific hashes is obviously superior.

One day someone will release the ‘detect and block anything resembling kpop’ extension for Twitter and I’ll be happy.

I assume the entire Netflix library is more than 178Tb.

I actually do like the 'explore backlinks' pane for Foam so it would be of some navigational use for me. They list reasons for adding it as:

Make every link two-way navigable in published sites

Make Foam notes more portable to different apps and long-term storage

(via https://foambubble.github.io/foam/materialized-backlinks)

Though I may be getting confused between the backlink differences that Foam, Obsidian, and Roam offer. A list of forward links per document would actually be useful as well, which IIRC neither Foam or Obsidian offer at the moment. Obsidian also shows the user 'unlinked mentions' along with explicit backlinks, which is also a nice feature that Foam lacks.

I tried Obsidian but prefer Foam[0], just because I enjoy using VSCode. Once it gets materialized backlinks I suppose it will be similar enough.
