"which anyone can use to do, relatively easily" this is not true at all. Not anyone can use Photoshop, you need to first buy or get the software, then you need to learn how to use it, then work on the images. Whereas now you can

It is 100% not. You can create a whole lot of misinformation with an image. You cannot do that by visiting a website. To dismiss the concern with “people are having fun” is, at best, a naive idea and, at worst, a deliberately deceitful and

oh man I’ll never forget that site. I remember my dad and I trying to find the name of a song to download (Endless summer nights), none of us knew any english at the time, but we loved that song. So he was listening to a recording of that s

You can touch an animal and it will react to it. Why are you putting language in front of it? Or let’s put it this way, what though you need to think before you feel something is interacting with you body? What you define as consciousness,

Yes. I have high confidence that animals are in fact conscious, in the same way that one can train in meditation and completely (although briefly) shut off the thinking brain, the inner dialog, and still be fully conscious and aware of what

This is the second time today that I come across this quote. I’m always happy to see Vonnegut in the wild. Let alone two times in a day!

if you appreciate books, you don’t buy them from amazon. that’s been true for a number of years now. of course, if someone is tight on budget and wants to get a book, I wouldn’t go at them for getting the cheapest option available, which in

I hate that the Internet thought me now to distrust everything. In this case, I have the feeling that the author chose those words carefully to click bait us somehow without actually lying

I read it for you. Spoiler alert, remained uninteresting until the end. I agree with the notion that we will have to adapt our workflows now that coding is getting cheaper (at least for now), but the author is suggesting to forgo PRs entire

Or just open the call in the browser. It’s much easier to do that than to spin a vm. At this point I just distrust the author

I don’t follow Stranger Things, so I cannot speak about the quality of the show, but I clicked on the link to see which settings the guy was talking about and I was surprised about how awful the CGI of that shot looks like. It’s hideous. Lo

you cannot know. that’s why the post elaborates saying (paraphrasing) “if you realize it’s taking longer, cut your losses and move on to something else”

Good for you, Mark! I had a nice chuckle. On a more serious note, I really feel for the people that cannot get any kind of support and try to get some help by messaging "the owner" of the social network they are in. With big com

same. sensitivity of the camera is just too high. it handles ok but so much sensitivity creates this motion sickness. had to quit after 30 seconds and I still can’t recover. but beautiful game though!

yes. why do we listen to this guy compared to any other 90 years old person? most people would listen to him because he is monetarily successful or because “he made it”. but as he points out, most of it was luck, so there’s really no point

Whenever I open one of these sites that asks me to confirm tracking, if it doesn’t have an easy way to cancel or reject, I just leave the page. The banner had hundreds of different companies listing “legitimate” reasons to track, and after

anyone reading this comment: don’t do this. this is not the way to work on a team. i’ve seen so many random prs of engineers that thought this was the time to go on a rabbit whole and fix some random error they found. worse, i’ve seen reg

Not the person you were responding to but, if a company provides a service, they want you to use it instead of their competitors. No company is going to say “use ours unless you want to use the best, then use our competitor’s”. so even thou

This is a fun one, because no matter how you pronounce it, if someone tries to correct you, you can just say "American vs British pronunciation"

I was fascinated by this movement some years ago. They did a great job of understanding what makes "belief" in general so damn interesting. I'm afraid that we'll keep seeing these things pop up (real conspiracy theories)

> "The CEO wants to be popular, so everyone sees his posts." This is so insane to me. Some weeks ago I had to create a twitter account because I wanted to contact a developer for an app I'm using and the only contact inf

This is not really true. It is true that this particular 3D environment has some limitations, but it is 3D. A video here discussing this exact topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYGJQqhMN1U

This is sad af. We've been discussing with my wife of cancelling our Spotify subscription. This is actually a good reason to do so.

And to your comment, I remember not even fully understanding some of the lyrics, so I would just try to come up with phrases that made sense to me. Worse, not being a native English speaker.

Well I can tell you in my totally anecdotal view that the underground scene here is alive and well, you just need to look a bit harder for it ;) It’s true that mainstream media like Instagram and TikTok are bringing the worst of the scene
