Same with the "affordable housing" criteria of new build housing developments. They'll accidentally forget to build the affordable part then get a slap on the wrist afterwards, or build much fewer than were in the plans, or b

I'd put bets on yours being the Jubilee line then, that loud whine is etched into my soul. One thing this couldn't capture for the Central line is the sheer volume of it.

Yeah same, even after years of gaming I still prefer laptop style short travel keys. Slim mechanical are good but still not quite the same. The official apple separate keyboards are my favourite but currently I use a keychron k1.

If you start doing longer rides you learn there are general temperature ranges and kit that's fine to commute in or ride an hour in traffic with a rucksack is very different from the kit you want on a 6 hour ride in the countryside. I

Actual display recommendations aside I would have loved this article years ago when trying to explain to designers why a font on one device may not look the same on another device, even if it's the same font-family and pixel height, es

As someone that used to work on a TV app I wasn't surprised when focus issues were the first thing mentioned. It sounds trivial but it takes a surprising amount of testing and bug fixing to get it right.

Yeah it's just the kernel anti-cheat now which is keeping me on windows. I'm fully ready to swap to linux but unfortunately I do like to play games that need it.

I recently built a windows PC again for gaming. Haven't used one for years. Everything's fresh, loads of room on hard drives etc and still sometimes it'll just be weird and needs a reset. But it doesn't surprise me, it&#

Huh? If this was an article from a commercial entity selling a product we'd be calling it a marketing puff piece and asking for the science.

Or arguably that's the point. If you Copilot generate a few lines of code or use it for inspiration you're still paying attention to it and are aware of what it's doing. The actual outcome will be indistinguishable from the c

Maybe read some of the stories of the cyclists like Pantani doing blood doping. They would have to wake up every few hours through the night and do some cycling on a stationary bike to get their heart rate up or their heart might stop while

Yeah I meant viewership, tv coverage etc.

It's the most tested sport by far. Mostly because a couple of huge scandals - Festina and Armstrong. It's an endurance sport which is a natural target for doping because of the huge gains that can be made and it's also proba

Except in cyclocross you swap bikes constantly during the race so the current one can be cleaned of mud before it blocks the wheels from spinning.

Oh look the Israeli tech workers are online. Everyone knows it's a genocide. "Gaza victim narrative", the absolute state of you.

This is what I learnt to develop on. Yes I could have done with some more screen real estate but this thing never skipped a beat. I wasn't exactly running LLMs with it but multiple local servers, lots of files open at once, lots of chr

And there's no punishment for being wrong. Even a newspaper has to publish official apologies, not that anyone bothers to read them. He could say the sky is red on that platform and there's nothing anyone could do to force him to

There's an unavoidable amount of guilt. I should be remembering them more, I should be honouring them by keeping them in my thoughts, but I can't think about them 24/7 and now I feel guilty that I'm doing them a disservi

It's the same reason I always recommend people to start with CodeAcademy if they want to start learning web dev. The interactive, live preview is perfect and the UI is nice enough to outsiders. There are other sites with preview boxes

How nice of them to identify a problem and offer their paid solution in the same article.

Over simplification can be ok but they need to provide an in depth faq after wards. I've got too many board games where the actions per turn are easy enough to understand, you get 3/4 of the way through then someone asks if this a

Rough maths. 70 mil votes for Tump out of 260 mil 18+ people in the USA, that's about 27%. Around 21% of US adults are functionally illiterate. There's a lot of idiots out there. https://www.crossrivertherapy.com/

Absolutely. This comment section shows it as good as any. HN used to be about intellectual curiosity, now you get people complaining about pronouns.

You're complaining about how Trump was presented as a threat to democracy after he made a speech saying how if he wins you'll never have to vote again? After he lead an insurrection and tried to illegally overthrow the previous el
