I don't get how you go and get access to something that not many people get to see, and then you edit the photos so much that they look computer generated. Looking at his portfolio…

I'm with you on this. I can understand controlling the use of phones during class because it's disrespectful for the teachers work, but a complete ban is just dumb and seems like v…

From my experience in tech support most of the issues with mouses and keyboards are because of accumulated gunk, specially if you have pets or smoke near the computer. Since they a…

No idea, but it seems like it's intentionally made so that no matter the orientation of the deck (face up or face down), the first card you see (not counting jokers and ad cards) w…

Bit of a nitpicking but the "sort" order is wrong. New decks come ordered Ace of Spades - King of Spades, Ace of Diamonds - King of Diamonds, King of Clubs - Ace of Clubs, King of …

You do know that that video is from the TV COMEDY show Servant of the People, where he plays the role of a Ukrainian president BEFORE he was actually elected president?

Besides the AI being able to interpret the questions, which is the entire point of a language model, isn't this just the same as someone googling the answers to the exam?

Are people really OK with writing code in C# for data presentation? How is it fine having to compile code when you want to change a font colour for example? And just from looking a…

I'm from your next door neighbour, Portugal. But I think that anyone that studies magic quickly realizes how amazing the Spanish scene is.

To add to this, Juan Tamariz paved the road for other great (and arguably better) spanish magicians to follow him, and it's worth watching them to see how different and amazing Spa…

Definitely not many. How many people do you think there are in Europe? 4.6 million EUR would allow you to give 1€ to 1% of the entire EU population. On the other hand you can say t…

This needs to be higher. Zuck clearly said that Facebook got a general warning from the FBI regarding the elections, but didn't recall having a specific warning about the Hunter Bi…

NO2 is mostly generated from burning fuel, that's why in most of the countries in the map you only see yellow blobs over major cities due to higher car traffic, and almost no NO2 i…

This is probably an edge case, but I work in lab software that uses chemical symbols and having sub and super characters saves lots of headaches. I can just store "CO₂" in a databa…

An interesting thing in those numbers is that Ukraine captured more Russian vehicles than the ones that they lost. So Russian is in a way making the Ukrainian army bigger.

I think the problem is on the other direction. Austria is nowhere near Scandinavia.

Interesting that when this article was posted yesterday most of the comments said the exact opposite about B1M. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30983269

Just noticed that they use different wording on the readme: "Any damage you do will not be covered by your warranty – but more importantly, you might break your Steam Deck, or even…

Biometric data gathering is officially out of the text [0] (no English source, sorry). [0] https://www.publico.pt/2021/11/16/politica/noticia/ps-corta-...

Not my intention at all. To clarify, the law WAS awful, but when this was posted here on HN it was already announced that the only thing that PSD (opposing political party) was wil…

That article is pure propaganda and not factually true. To give some background, the Portuguese government failed to get the annual budget approved, the president dissolved the par…

It's probably just an issue with trying to translate the original source. But the law uses the term "contact", so AP is correct.

The specifics aren't yet known, they only approved the generality of the law. But the news only mentions employers, so it doesn't seem like it will include co-workers. Also your ex…

You're partially right. Portugal is in the middle of a work culture change. For the last maybe 5 or so years, many tech companies have opened offices here, and with that they broug…
