Yeah that is basically what I meant, but I should've said refrigerated and not frozen. It is still a far cry from what I would call a bakery.

Don't they just heat up frozen/pre-made bread? I don't know...just I don't think they have enough room to be a real bakery. Also, corporate financials would have centralized that a…

There are still a few regions that are fully vertically integrated and fully regulated with no market prices. However, much of the US is under a regional ISO that sets hourly day a…

I'm sure they're correct about a lot of airline water being nasty - no argument there, but the organization/website sounds like it has a mission that is probably at least partly ps…

Magnatiles are great for adults who want to play with their kids too. The most fun my kid had was playing make believe games with me. Like I'd say "you're lost in a forest and you …

Possibly an unintended consequence. Those abound in our governing systems as you're rightfully complaining about. On the other hand, competition is good for consumers and letting M…

Of course. My comment was just describing a very common view in the southern United States. Not all Protestants believe that (especially Anglicans which are basically Catholic with…

Bahaha. I was looking for the Warhammer 40k comment. For those that don't know, the writers of Warhammer basically copied off of history and many other IP like Dune. In Warhammer, …

A lot of evangelical christians (like the predominant factions in the southern US) are very suspicious of Catholicism and many don't view it as true Christianity.

This reminds me of streudal: https://strudel.cc/ https://larkob.github.io/strudel/tutorial/ I've seen some cool demos on YouTube from SwitchAngel.

All that is shown here: https://8th-dev.com/ As for the manual's omission, I'm guessing it's a typo. I want to say it used to be there, but haven't looked in a long time.

https://8th-dev.com/words.html https://8th-dev.com/manual.html Not sure if that is the best example, but go to the "network" section and you can see plenty of examples of connectio…

The Windows 95-XP taskbar is good. Everything else has been downhill.

I think this is one of those things that can be situationally useful, but also come with huge risks to the majority of users.

I think you're exaggerating a little, but aren't entirely wrong. The Internet has completely changed daily life for most of humanity. AI can mean a lot of things, but a lot of it i…

My limited understanding (please take with a big grain of salt) is that they 1.) sell mainframes, 2.) sell mainframe compute time, 3.) sell mainframe support contracts, 4.) sell Re…

This is going on all over again.

They come up with tons and tons of products like Google Glass and Google+ and so on and immediately abandon them. It is easy to see that there is no real vision. They make money of…

LLMs are useful tools, but certainly have big limitations. I think we'll continue to see anything be automated that can be automated in a way that reduces head count. So you have t…

I've had this discussion here on HN several times over the years. Lots of comments from others have pointed out similar experiences. I'm guessing your experience was more positive …

It might not be a problem for you, but it has been for many. I did start by reading through 3 Clojure books. The repl and the basic stuff like using lists is all easy of course, bu…

I tried to get into Clojure, but a lot of the JVM hosted languages require some Java experience. Same thing with Scala and Kotlin or F# on .NET. The early tooling was also pretty d…

Perfect solution for doing analysis on tables. Wes McKinney (inventor of pandas is rumored to have been inspired by it too). My problem with APL is 1.) the syntax is less amazing a…

The Windows 95 left tile was basically perfect. A lot of Linux distros have something similar. It allows you to quickly survey the useful programs. There is no further perfection. …

You're correct in a sense, but glossing over a very real problem. You still need some kind of knowledge of how to use a desktop computer for a lot of jobs in the workforce. If all …
