One thing I've desperately wanted from git worktrees is to use reflinking in some way to lower the cost of copies. I just found https://github.com/josharian/git-cow-worktree that doesn't inspire confidence.

Would you say the same about more obviously artistic mediums? "Oh, their second album sounds exactly like their first which I liked!" isn't a compliment, usually.

The article sensibly asks if the (intentionally or not) cherry-picked stats about automated driving (fair weather only, limited to specific areas that aren't especially difficult) is valid then cites a study that really massages those

Sounds like what Mazda did with the MX-30 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_MX-30 ) which flopped hard. They used their new Wankel engine as range extender, perfect use case since the power:weight ratio of these is i

At first I thought about something like https://libreelec.tv/ but Kodi instead of the much more powerful mpv is not an option. So probably a custom lightweight distro with mpv outputting to DRM directly and a game controlle

I've been searching for one hour, and the only truly safe thing is an HTPC linked to an OS-free commercial display like these large VAs from ViewSonic: https://www.viewsonic.com/global/products/commercial-disp

Those .blr extensions in the examples are making me doubt: the result is still conformant and playable ogg Vorbis/Opus, right?

I have a free Deezer account from my family. Shit is extremely barren. Some examples: 1. (already posted on HN) Wanted to try Midori's early stuff, but no "1st" EP nor "2nd" LP. Not on Spotify nor Apple Music either
