The opposite? Isn’t the person who needs to maintain a home and have lots of possessions more of a slave?

Still not great ROI.

I don’t think Sourcesafe was mentioned. I have some nostalgia for that monster. Actually it was perfect for solo use. It was the team use (on a network share of course) where it would get corrupted. You had to make regular backups!

Maybe more of an evolution but if git could understand it the context of the code, big refactors, that file B was parts of file A and C, etc. It would be nice. A CRDT type thing where your intentions are stored would be cool. The C means co

What other things are there that exhibit this phenomenon? I am curious, I bet there are quite a few. Anything where the image we associate with X is not the real X for some historical reason. Or more generally it could extend to prose, art

I feel there is impedance mismatch between the mathematical category theory side and what is needed for programs. A case in point is the infamous complex diagram for the Lens library in Haskell. This is abstracting the notion of getters and

“Unreasonable effectiveness” is a nod to the phrase about Mathematics and it’s effectiveness at describing and predicting the universe at all scales.

Is it reasonable to expect Wikipedia to index all the things? A road that has never been written about. Openstreetmap is a seperate entity, and that makes perfect sense. So is Github. Do you need an article for every file in the Linux kerne

I always google what I need. I admit I haven’t gone deep into it. Just the basics for side projects.

Postgres running local has good ROI. You can reuse that knowledge on a remote server. More than SQL you can learn about setting up databases and schemas etc.

I am sure smoke alarms make a big difference and people not smoking. Circuit breakers instead of fuses. Plus all the for fire exits and fire doors in apartment blocks.

The downside here is the need to proxy everything through the same server. That will add latency and possibly throttle bandwidth if that data is coming from third parties. The scenario where this could be good is something where there are b

Not a sellout. Think of it as an ordinary guy gets to middleman a big company rather than the usual make it and break it in house experience. It is no worse than someone holding DO stock and making a profit from that.

The money in CSS is selling $500 courses with the same content as the free ones (because everyone is selling to beginners which is where the $ is), but with a great designer can make it look really sexy.

Otherwise you’d give up having types and linters because god forbid they might prove a program will halt!

That is a small hurdle. Just come up with a name. HD driver? If that is too close then something else. End of the day call it bollocks and since you are using hardware detection anyway who cares.

With Espresso the coffee acts as a filter so it may help. You then chuck the coffee “cake” out immediately before making another. With french press the coffee is retrained by a filter but it wont be a fine one.

I think the idea is the calcium carbonate traps it but not sure why or how efficient it is. Or if you boil microplastics do they melt (become petrol or oil?) or do they stay intact or a mix.

Does a reverse osmosis unit get rid of microplastics? It is quite a cheap investment for most HN types. Over 5 years with filter changes it will cost less than your Netflix.

Boiling water. And using hard water (high calcium). And a coffee strainer.

Building a pyramid is impressive. Moving planets out of existing orbit is another level. I can only imagine this is possible for a race who can plan multi million year projects and thus you can probably use rockets to do small gravitational

Thanks for the list. Tried Jan just now as it is both easy and open source. It is a bit buggy I think but the concept is ace. The quick install, tells you which models work on your machine, one click download and then a chatgpt style interf
