Although you are (as I understand) right, the question itself is valid, lots of diseases spread to species other than the one that is in the name… Chickenpox, monkeypox, swine flu, or even the Spanish flu.

If you want a trail, there is already the PR. It has description that explains why the change makes sense, code changes, reviewers, if relevant screenshots and videos. If you want small PRs that contain one meaningful, easy to review change

I’d be surprised if it made a dent… I’d probably first check the numbers on this… you are saying that because men can get their testosterone up even later in their lives, they either cheat, get sexually frustrated, or less likely to put up

This was / is not my experience. I worked mainly on frontend code, web and mobile app. As a developer, I got the task, an “order” that something needs to be added. Best case scenario, my product owner / manager came up with it, be

If there is only two troublemakers in every group of 30 children, and a museum receives 10 groups a day, that’s 20 little rascals who are all trying to do the craziest stunt they can come up with…

I don’t know what exactly they teach about AI, but trying out different AI tools could be very important, it’s a great learning tool if you want it to be. It can help students learn math, history, programming…

I have 14 Max, and it is so heavy. I don’t mind the thickness, but the weight is very annoying. So while I didn’t say “I wish my phone was thinner”, I did say many times “this should weigh about half of what it actually weighs”.

I guess that it’s the iPhone’s messenger app? I heard that in that app, fellow iOS users have blue bubble messages and Android / other users have green bubble messages, and all the teens in the US /maybe Canada think it’s lame if

It’s about setting up systems that help you succeed even if you are not perfect. It’s about facing the fact that you don’t always have enough self control, and minimizing self destruction when that happens. I guess it’s like when recovering

We are close to the “we should put a warning label on the microwave that don’t dry your cat in it” . At some point it’s not a blog authors responsibility to make you understand that “erase all content” erases all content.

I don’t think that delivery service apps make you hooked on your phone. It’s high value information (assuming you care when exactly your stuff arrives) that you get quickly without distractions. IMO it’s less distracting than email apps (ag

My questions were not rhetorical. I’m actually interested in the space (fintech, web3, blockchain, etc), but in this space particularly, it’s hard to discern marketing gimmick from use cases where these technologies actually provide real va

Idea is interesting. It looked great… until you actually tried to actually use the web app. Then nothing worked.

But we were talking about “cryptocurrency”. Smart contracts, roll ups, zk are not cryptocurrencies. I get that they are related.

I don’t get it yet. If we skipped the whole blockchain part, wouldn’t it be faster, simpler, cheaper? What value does the whole blockchain, EVM, L1 offer? Don’t they fully control the network? Don’t they decide “everything” anyway? I’d love

Fair question, playing music and timers are nice, but their AI is abysmal so you can imo not ask it to do anything else. I previously worked for a smart home company so I wanted to test out product’s integration with Alexa, so we have some

Alexa consistently fails with the simplest of questions. Only thing it can do is set a timer, turn off a light and play music. It is still nice, but it’s so frustrating when a question pops into my mind, and I accidentally ask Alexa just to

Honestly I’m kind of surprised they made 10B in revenue. There should be a web extension that adds a warning to every article or tweet that are by journalists trying to hype the metaverse. That stuff was so obviously going to fail.

Jira ticket Nr 97437838. Training service ignores settings, trains on your data anyway. Priority: extremely low. Will probably do it in 2031 when the intern joins.

AFAIK Custom photo pickers access your pictures without (hopefully) doing anything nefarious with it. With that said, 95% of apps that do that should just not use custom file pickers.

I was also confused first, I thought it is against the TypeScript compiler, too.

But isn’t it at least part of the problem? The JavaScript code looks completely fine, until the HN comment section finds various subtle bugs that sometimes not even TS can protect you against?

I get why some people would not want to pay this, but it’s also not at all unreasonable to pay 50 USD. It might be 3x a Netflix subscription, but Netflix is, for many, just wasting our time, whereas learning math could mean you can get a be

But then the only reason to use BlueSky is that your network is using it. It’s a completely valid reason, but All the talk about platform lock in, independent nodes and relay and whatnot is just to make you feel better (I listened to some t
