Cubozoa are ripe for study if you're curious about primitive vision and its applications. They are notoriously venomous, so handle with care, but if we can trust undergrads with caring for them in the lab I trust the average tinkerer c

We should really make a better shopify already; these guys aren't worth the salt they stand upon.

My greatest fear is that every maintainer living a life like this decides to give up.

I mean, I wouldn't want to have to bulk-purchase a large number of well-spec'ed laptops in this market. But you aren't wrong.

I would assume that all sorts of proteins would clear out of the brain in cases of prolonged oxygen depletion.

Why would Android Authority review any smartwatch on an iOS Device? It seems outside of their interests.

I disagree with the super limited warranty terms and the lack of charger for the Index 01, but I am happy to give Eric and the Pebble Team a pass this time while their company is in this stage. I really hope they adopt stronger pro-consumer

OP's interview with the F1 team sounds super cool, I'd actually love to hear more about their experience and the vibes they got from potentially working a dev job for a sports team. I had a close encounter with the analytics depar

I came to the comments to say the same thing! I would love to take a seminar or a class from the folks in their design department.

I've wanted to write something similar regarding anxiety on a blog of my own for close to a decade now, but I was always afraid to put my feelings to paper, in case they become real. If they stay in my head, I can dismiss them. OP, I h

I think it ought to be said here in the comments that magazine's front page is anathema to the ideals of the comment section of HN, and whoever is funding these blowhards clearly doesn't share our ideals. Proceed with caution.

Pioneering was my favorite merit badge in scouting, and it was the only place I was exposed to the engineering discipline of knots before discovering them again as a college student.

Truthfully, this sounds like you're showing folks the magic code to get inside various arcade claw machine games.

I love the Autopian, glad they're on the HN front page. David Tracy's Jeep antics have kept me up at night worrying for at least 10 years now.

I think I could have bolstered this point by claiming "Windows and DirectX are losing ground", but I stand by my argument that Microsoft's gatekeeper status is eroding thanks to the growth [1] of Proton and Vulkan. Now native

Valve does make its own DRM, and they could certainly find reason to improve its efficacy and roll back their current policy without upsetting the applecart

Valve is in a funny position now. They lived long enough to see every one of Sony and XBOX's moats dry up by being pro-consumer where possible, but with Steam as the leader of a fungible game distribution market it may no longer make

I can appreciate the author's perspective, but in my experience the magic of bringing the online world offline gave our product ( https://ww.cardcluster.com/install - duelists, give it a try!) a significant amount of st

The cool thing about cheap sea drones is that they are still incredibly expensive to operate. Like, the only cost center they remove is the crew which is negligible compared to fuel, transport, and equipment.

I loved this project the first time it came around. As much as I wanted to build it out myself, I was shocked at how much the components actually cost to put together. It definitely seems like an improvement on the charmera though, so it al

Great username. I too wished to live at sea once, but I gotta be honest with you; hang around any of the big submariner/shipwright/offshore groups for long enough and it will shock you how few people with money in those circles

I'm negative on this proposal because it sounds like Anthropic put the cart before the horse. Today, at this very moment, 9 out of 10 non-profits and NGOs run of IT infrastructure wholly dependent on email servers, office software, and

I think the author hit the right notes here; we do know how best optimize learning for high marks at a classroom-level, we do struggle with improving outcomes for students who need extra help, and we do bore students to tears when they outp

> Farming consumes more water than datacenters. But you don't see center-pivot or linear-movement farmland built up in areas with high population density, nor do you see them using the municipal, potable water supply for irrigation.
