I got a Costco hot dog the other day, and it looked like the 2023 version. The 2026 one looks comical, like someone took an off the shelf bun and put the dog in it. Maybe that particular Costco ran out of the normal buns?

Out of curiosity, does anyone know how this is enforceable for a company not based in California? Can CA fine a data broker that is based in another state but that is selling CA residents' information?

Agreed. I almost exclusively use the "middle click" autoscroll feature to scroll on websites. It is completely broken on this site because of the scroll-snap.

When I say "low effort", I don't mean "not perfect". I was quite lax actually as I understood how annoying some users were when I asked my own questions. I'm taking about entirely unreadable posts (not English

While there were many zealots that gave SO this reputation, I don't know if that's the reason it died. As someone who frequently answered questions in the 'New' queue, the sheer amount of rule breaking, low effort, and o

> Whatever you’re shipping to a phone isn’t for professionals anyway. That's a bold statement. I hate developing for iPhone, but I don't have a choice because 85% of the users of our B2B app are on iOS.

Interesting. Looking at each in isolation, my boundary is pretty far into Green territory. But when I look at the gradient, I would place it far closer to the center. Also, I found that sometimes it looked like there were two colors.

Really bad at prompt adherence. Was trying to get it to compose a solo old time banjo piece. Couldn't get it to stop adding in backing instrumentals at all and it sounded too much like bluegrass style. "solo banjo instrumental,

Also, water towers. As long as the power isn't out long enough to deplete the tower.

The title on HN is incorrect/misleading, they are not generating AI images. They are hand curating a database of images by location and using an LLM to pick the pictures.

69 million dollars in refunds!? That's 12% of the gross, seems crazy high. Is this pulling from actual Steam numbers?

I wish I knew about this last week. I spent way too long trying out MinIO alternatives before getting SeaweedFS to work, but it is overkill for my purposes. Looks like a great alternative.

You don't have to sacrifice anything, no one is making you install anti-cheat software. > Sacrificing freedom for fun? For video games of all things? That's pretty disgusting and I want people to be better than that. What is th

Awesome news, can't wait until they implement calendar support and I can get rid of Outlook once and for all.

The difference is where the product is labeled. Is it labeled nationally like Arizona Iced Tea? Is it labeled at a regional bottling facility? Or is it labeled at the store itself? And what about when tax rates change, you gonna go pu

Sales tax varies by state/county/city. It is generally not cost-effective to have each individual store label all their products with local sales taxes applied.

There are 16 devices on my WiFi right now and I would've though I was above average. I have a bunch of weird stuff like 3 Raspberry Pis that most households would not have, but I don't have most of the stuff you listed. I guess I

I don't think many people would consider limewire to be "self-hosting". That is just installing a program.

I can't find the nutrition information anywhere on the site. The first thing I look for when I see "no sugar added" on any product is the sugar content. Not being able to see that before buying is a no-go for me.

It would also allow for assembly trimming, which would be a huge boon if you are trying to do a self contained deployment. Right now you either do framework dependant or have like a 200MB+ deployment.

Very true. We just developed a brand new LOB desktop app and settled on sticking with WPF. WinUI has been dead for years imo. On a side note, I still love WPF after working in it for 10 years. Maybe it's just familiarity, and it&#x27

Oh, interesting, TIL. Didn't realize there was a second step to training these models.
