Similar to the longer cycle times, I'm curious if there is the equivalent for HN. I like this site, https://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ , but it's once-per-day. I'd at least like once-per-week.

Running Zotero (directly) is the big requirement for my next e-reader. Yeah, I can sync pdfs from my library with webdav or something else. But I want the full Zotero interface.

This is a very misleading statement; most of those physicians are using LLMs to transcribe notes from visits and/or for billing purposes (e.g., proper billing codes).

Don’t spread lies. Several states also allow same day registration. And all of them set the ballot aside until the registration is verified. This means it isn’t even counted until verified. And, no, I’m not going to “trust me, I’ve seen it

I think your historic trend data is out of date. The inflation-adjusted median wealth crossed the 2007 bar sometime between 2019 and 2022. See the "CPI-Adjusted to 2022" column https://dqydj.com/net-worth-by-year&#

A terse diff like that, on a separate page, is probably not what they were referring to.

Gotcha. Thank you. FYI, for anyone else that stumbles upon this: I decided to do a quick check on PyTorch (the most problem-prone dependency I've had), and noticed that they recommending specifically no longer using conda—and have sinc

Can someone explain a non-project based workflow/configuration for uv? I get creating a bespoke folder, repo, and uv venv for certain long-lived projects (like creating different apps?). But most of my work, since I adopted conda 7ish

I also like to keep my anti-tiger rock on me at all times. I don't really care that there's no evidence that it works. All I know is what I see, and I haven't seen any tigers.

I don't think HNs database has the free space to contain such a list.

I haven't heard any mention of the dossier in years, other than as an artifact of the past. A quick search, and I can't find sources trying to claim its truth (or evidence of smoke, for which there might be a fire) in years. I cer

Now you're making two claims, neither of which you're providing evidence for. If "everyone agrees...the election had fraud", I'm sure you can provide multiple reputable polls showing this sentiment of "everyone

Don't be coy, please enlighten us as to what this conspiracy is involving Russia that you think the MSM peddled, and what evidence you have that disproves the narrative.

You'll need to provide credible sources for that wild claim.

I'd love to read the critiques (if any) the professor dared to give when grading that.

Research careers. Lol. Since this is HN I’ll hit a nerve, but I bet much less than 0.1% of CS MS degree holders do research as a career.

Having done that, I can answer. I'll be a little vague on the topic to keep some anonymity. Without a plan, per se, I nurtured a burgeoning personal research interest that was well outside my field. The initial hobby was very rudimenta

I try not to let the intrusive thoughts win, but this is exactly what I think almost every time there's an article on the supposed supriority of emacs or markdown (i.e., plain text).

As someone who has degrees in both, I can firmly say this is wildly incorrect.
