In France, in absence of contrary indications (ie: absence of signs, traffic signals, or line markings), it's "Priority to the Right". So if it's an actual roundabout (aka, "rond-point"), then normal traffic ru

the big issue with this setup is that most streaming platforms won’t give you multi-channel audio via the browser on Linux systems. Some might also limit the video quality. On Windows, it used to be different, but lately I’ve observed the s

1. Even in regulated markets like Europe, you’ll note that it’s still a percentage of the transaction value, not a fixed cost. 2. In EU, while Interchange is regulated, Scheme fees, Acquirer fees, and Processor fees are not. These are usual

It's about provisioning for credit losses. Roughly speaking, when a transaction needs to be unwound, if the merchant cannot cover the reversal (for example, because it has defaulted), then the payment processor needs to pony up instead

I think you're injecting your personal views into the definition, which don't align with the common meaning of the word. Here's the definition of the word taken from macOS's built-in dictionary (New Oxford American Dicti

Aside from the fact that the few policies they made explicit in their platform would actually be counter-productive to getting more supply (such as National-level rent freezes), they also don't have a good track record at the local lev

Sounds like you're just applying somewhat arbitrary purity rules to what falls into the "leftist" bucket or not. I believe that for most people "leftists" means "on the left side of the political spectrum"

Not bringing the language closer to Scala is a feature, not a bug though.

I've also been trying (and mostly failing) to build such a setup over the last few weeks. What are you thinking in terms of the overall building blocks to get this to work? I've been struggling to get a proper low-latency screen+a

The Clever dripper and the Hario Switch are the two main ones I think, but then there's a lot of niche ones. The overall category is called "immersion dripper". My main concern is the plastic, so I've got one from a smal

I hear you on diners coffee and the fact that it feels like it a different beverage altogether. I also crave it from time to time. —do you have tips on how to actually brew it in a home setting? Or this is something can only be achieved by

Not OP but I think you're confused: GPL doesn't require source to be made publicly available to all. You are only required to provide source to the users of your software.

Apple still does (CD is not required), it's called iTunes Match. It used to be standalone, but nowadays it's part of Apple Music.

I feel this is where uv's PEP 723 support of inline dependencies in a single-file Python script shines. Just use something like this as a shebang, and you can have your cake and eat it too! #!/usr/bin/env -S uv run previ

Pinning deps is a good thing, but it won't necessarily solve the issue of transitive dependencies (ie: the dependencies of requests itself for example), which will not be pinned themselves, given you don't have a lock file. To be

Gosh, thanks for sharing! This is the remaining piece I felt I was missing.

Thanks for sharing your experience, and what you have found to work. Sometimes I feel we (fellow HN readers) get caught into overly complex rabbit holes, so it's good to balance it out with some down-to-earth, practical perspectives.

The real world is a complicated place. You want simple answers when reality is complicated and nuanced. The fact is that there are—and have always been—people for which these things are not the same. You might want to wish it away, but that

I have the same setup and what works for me is putting the phone into Supervised mode using the Apple Configurator. From there, you can enable single app mode to lock it into the app you're using for the webcam (I use Camo).

I was thinking of doing the same but IR control only allows for unidirectional communication with the unit. Since there's no feedback mechanism, how do you solve for when the state of the unit(s) gets out of sync with HomeAssistant&#x2

I'm not sure I agree relentless cynicism is productive. Skepticism yes, that's very healthy. But unchecked cynicism tends to result in a general lack of trust that is not very conducive to progress.

the firewall question is interesting. I guess I understand their perspective: If nothing is listening/running then what’s the point of the firewall? The system is immutable so the security posture is a known quantity and cannot change

Maybe you should take a step back, and reconsider whether arguing that people who ride bikes "are not real, or do not have real world needs" makes any sense. Nothing that you have written is original. These are the usual arguments

Cooked unripe jackfruit is a very popular ingredient where I come from, but we typically combine it with smoked pork or chicken. It's very very yummy. I wouldn't say the texture resembles pulled pork though. Maybe visually if you
