According to looking at a 1,000 line code file on my machine right now, a million lines is about 48mb. You think > 10 million lines of code are required for security in an app?

502 for me. I'm interested in this for sure, though!

Being able to test future models without fear that your prompt has just been trained on an answer on HN, I assume.

Nice! I went for the Anbernic 40xxH and it's a joy to use. The only thing I wish worked differently was Retro Achievements working offline!

Tangentially related - I recently picked up a retro gaming handheld from Aliexpress for the meagre sum of £50, which is capable of playing consoles from gameboy to snes to playstation 1, and apparently even a smattering of N64 and dreamcast

They are talking about using an external laptop cooler, I believe. Not feasible for some but if you do 90% of your work at your desk then it certainly makes sense as a suggestion.

Not sure on the technicalities but as a brit I'd read that without pause, it's perhaps informal at worst.

I'd love to see an analysis of proposed reforms since 2010 that have tried to do anything other than move the NHS towards not being socialized medicine. I suspect the list would be vanishingly small. Maybe this is me "weaponising&

It's already illegal to not disclose passwords when ordered to do so in the UK. Sure, the US freedom of speech amendment protects more powerfully than in most countries. But I wouldn't be so confident once the rest of the world ha

I agree there should be a military and a defense industry which is _different_ from our current system. I believe anyone working for the _current_ system is likely to be causing harm greater than the good they also cause. Malevolent implies

Sure. I do not argue that we should abolish the military and all defence industry. I _do_ argue that the military industrial complex is by and large profit driven and motivated by greed not the desire to protect its citizens. I do believe t

I do indeed make the choice to not work in the defence industry as opposed to helping building such systems. So in effect, yes I do nothing. I can't argue that the military does not to some level protect me - I do believe that in my (w

Name a country that develops high tech weaponry and doesn't do one of the two: - Use it for evil purposes - Sell it to other nations that then use it for evil purposes Anyone involved in the defence industry is complicit in the death o

I agree that DRM isn't ideal either. Well, it's not that anyone is necessarily perfect. But the other major console players certainly seem better - if I bought a PS4 game a few years ago then I can reasonably expect to still play

It was 18 months between launch of the Switch and of NSO, so we can split the difference :) I disagree. You should as far as I'm aware be able to still use those songs

by maybeOneDay 4y ago
Which is to say: you had to wait for years for them to come out on Switch, and then pay again. Forever.

Do you have a source on your claim that 7k of sporadic and slow walking is categorically worse than a 5 minute walk that is fast? I think that is a rather counter intuitive claim, 7k steps is about 5-6km whereas a 5 minute walk even at blis

Anti-patterns are rarely as absolute as you're making this out to be. Sure, I agree, lots of times it's better to store xml or json literals not in code. But for something three lines long it's perfectly fine, more readable,

You've perfectly demonstrated one motivation for this proposal: your string literal is incorrect. Verbatim strings in C# require " to be escaped, your string should be: var xml = @" <element attr=""

I'm not certain why crypto is hugely important here. Can reddit not just ask people to link a paypal/some other banal payment provider if they would like to pay content creators?

Tangential: Is there any evidence that pro biotic foods or supplements can increase gut health? Given the evident importance of gut health, I wonder whether it's worth using something like this, to grab a random example: https:/&

Love it, thanks. Turns out it isn't actually very realistic to approximate the Hercules Great Wall. Astonishing

and how long is this strand in question?

Not OP, but the effect can, for some people, be likened in intensity to a bad trip on mushrooms or acid and be deeply traumatic. Especially dependent on the people you're with and the place you're in.

Don't get me wrong, this is some absolute BS from MSoft, but no it's not accurate to say you can't use whatever default browser you want. It's that there are a very few select things that force you into opening a link in

The first guideline disagrees with your premise "On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that grati

This may be a noob question - how do you go about filling in the other side of that abstraction in the JS (presumably) post transpilation? Is it just that you had a set of files in JS developed separately and the build/deployment syste
