I'm not saying this is something that should be ignored, but it feels out of place for HN. From the guidelines: > If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

That name jumped out at me, Hans Jansen is the name Dominic Monaghan used when posing as a German interviewer with Elijah Woods. Not that it can't be a real person https://youtu.be/IfhMILe8C84

Barely related, but reminded me that a recent comment here linked to this DEFCON talk from a former darknet vendor. He claimed to use WiFi from a house a mile away using a Yagi antenna https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01oeaBb

That may be a good idea, but I honestly haven't looked into it. My preference is for operating systems to just work, rather than me change all my motherboards to accommodate them

Arch is my ideal distro, but since my motherboards started using UEFI I just haven't been able to install it. I followed the instructions from the Install Wiki[0], but just couldn't figure it out. Manjaro's been a nice in-bet

That's really confusing since `pixz` exists and its "pixie" pronunciation actually works https://github.com/vasi/pixz

I think Karabiner(-Elements) is way more popular and probably more flexible, but I've had a lot of success with Ukelele for 6-7 years. I exported one layout and just copy it to each new macbook. Specifically it lets me set `option` as

If you're interested in how records are cut, Amanda Ghassaei had a really cool project 3D printing records that goes into detail. She later used laser cutting https://amandaghassaei.com/projects/3D_printed_record&#

It's still around and getting periodic updates. I originally bought it mainly to give Sublime more money (after using the Sublime Text trial for most of college), but it ended up being useful and I use it daily https://www.s

That's what I figured, but in practice I wasn't able to do that without having to manually enter most subtitles. The tools are relatively old, so I was hoping something newer had figured it out

Does anyone use OCR to convert BluRay subtitles (.sup) to plaintext .srt files? I've used tools like SupRip and BDSup2Sub, but they've all required pretty significant cleanup afterwards. 'l', '1', and 'I&#

I checked one of those citations, and wow.... > I expect that Sudanese law defines "rape" to exclude rape by the husband. That's comparable to US laws that define "rape" to include voluntary sex with under N year

I have no idea, I don't have experience with Babel. As mentioned in the release notes, this change makes TS conform more closely to ECMAScript, so I don't think it's a bad decision. But it would've been nice to get some

I'm a bit paranoid about upgrading after breaking changes in 3.9 removed the ability to stub ES imports with Sinon/Jasmine/etc..., since the section of the release notes made it sound pretty innocuous: "Getters/Sett

Do you have any good resources for getting started with Reason? I've tried a couple times, but it seems like there's a schism between https://reasonml.github.io/ and https://reasonml.org/

People expect that companies pay for their ads to be presented. A big reason for buying likes seems to be deceiving people into believing the posts aren't ads. I'd say it's similar to "sponsored content" that doesn&

Have any of the writers/editors who resigned singled out the "stick to sports" mandate from this week as their reason for leaving? It's clearly a contentious point between the management and workers, but based on their o
