The lockdown started on 16th December right? Shouldn't the effect become visible after 2 or 3 weeks? The current numbers are the outcome of the pre-lockdown rules?

I don't know how common this is, but here in The Netherlands, such license plate reading cars are driving through the streets to fine owners with parking tickets.

It's fine to come up with some magician who created our world and is looking at us through his/her terrarium, if that makes you feel warm and cosy. It's a whole other level to clai…

Paying Google to destroy the web and your privacy? That sounds very immoral to me

And how many people can be killed by a government which is mandated to enter the bodies of it's citizens by force? The people should be convinced to take vaccins and medicines (has…

No it doesn't. Democracy means you have the freedom (free press, independent judicial system, etc) to vote for the government you want. It doesn't mean you get the government you w…

I don't know about out-of-the-box ready software. Depending on how much time you have you'd either train your own model with your own ground truth or you can use an open source mod…

I work on the visualization and publishing side of this kind of data, but I do know our HTR works even better if we combine authors and centuries into one model, instead of separat…

I know places that use disposable carton cups, because their impact on the environment is less than cleaning a reusable cup. Which will probably make people scream that it's all to…

I really like your simple version to browse the manuscript and I agree it should be available at codex-atlanticus.it, but removing the design and interaction you loose a lot of inf…

OT, but I was using Jest and switched back to Mocha. Since my tests are nothing special and 100% browser env they load instant. Should have done sooner

I did not downvote and will not, because the post is phrased as a question. But, I do oppose compulsory vaccination because it harms bodily integrity.

I imagine a WordPress-like site, where you draw widgets and bring it to life with a theme. Maybe nothing too rocket sciency, but I reckon there's a market for it.

I think this is great. I see a future where designers can draw and create an interactive prototype. Anything beyond that is, my (educated) guess, long way off. Anybody hoping this …

It's false, because "most important" is unqaulafiable. In the browser it is most definitely the most important language, but in other areas most definitely not. Disclaimer, I like …

It's a bit unfair to measure by weight, because mobile phones are light. One television, monitor or desktop computer can weigh more than 10kg, but may not have the same impact on t…

Teletekst is an outlier, because it did not start as a web page, but the design has been consistent over the years and I still use the site and the app for news, TV guide and weath…

Ok, shooting from the waist. Say on average people use their phone 3 years. Say, we could stretch that to 4 years. Roughly 2/3 of the world population owns a phone, that's 5 billio…

You'd be mistaken. That would be a lot of phones and hence a lot of (rare) metals being delved. Sadly, even something as precious as a mobile phone is a throw away product nowadays…

First class? Parcel uses Babel to transpile. Ugh. https://github.com/parcel-bundler/parcel/issues/954

Dutch here. Any idea why De Heemskerck from Abel Tasman is not on the 50c?

Where I live, the municipality is seriously looking into an out of the city distribution centre with (smaller, electric) vehicles for supplying the city centre. That doesn't make i…

You need to narrow it down a bit. Know yourself. Find your passion. I know this sounds tacky, but there are sooo many variables in choosing a professional direction. You are the on…
