I assumed it was just being used as additional evidence that you shouldn't tie any frustration with this post/its format to original original author.

I just assume I'm overly familiar with it as someone who was a natural test-taker. (Early 30s)

Heck it might've been just a part of development and not a part of the production/user-facing features. I know my former employer lists everything that was ever in our process "jus…

Folks expecting a simple lifestyle tweak be warned, the original training is by Wim Hof and in addition to the (fairly intense) breathing exercises involves lying in snow for 30min…

Yeah I try to avoid "midwest" at all, except when being vague is a goal. The distinction between "Great Lakes" & "Great Plains" seems quite useful both geographically and culturall…

Samsung calls it "Magnetic Secure Transmission" as I recall. I wish they would advertise it more because it was honestly the greatest feature on that phone in my eyes, but everyone…

Up next: DuPont acquires Discord, ExxonMobil acquires Bumble, McKesson acquires Niantic/Pokemon Go...

I don't understand the hate for TikTok I frequently see on HN. Is it just ordinary ageism/curmudgeonliness? I'm not in its core audience myself, but it seems to me to be a very sma…

Ironically, something has autosubstituted an em dash "—" for your original double hyphens...

> There doesn't seem to be an equivalent phenomena with language. No, there are a number of disorders & brain injuries that specifically affect language. The general term you're lo…

> The camera is engineered so that it can’t activate without the camera indicator light also turning on. This is how you can tell if your camera is on. Is this verifiably true? I t…

I think kingkawn is using a less technical meaning that I hear often... "having no self-awareness" ≅ not considering the effects of one's actions. Certainly I think that's what my …

> Dev tools for Windows and iOS/ MacOs are fairly straight forward Are they? It's probably been a decade since I touched a native GUI (and I was without a mentor and working on alr…

> The conversion between RGB and CIELAB is almost meaningless (according to wikipedia) or perhaps there is a still a way to do that and helpful? As I understand it, that line is re…

Yeah and debugging it usually requires me to examine my least favorite and most fragile parts of my build tools. I think my employer's gulp config has had source maps broken for 2 …

This does suggest to me that browser websocket requests against localhost should at least: 1) return the same error message for all failures (unless some opt-in / launch flag is se…

Not that I know of, but I've always thought there was a cool project opportunity for a Mario Party-esque platform of minigames with room-code join-by-phone controllers. Sony has th…

Nice demo. I was curious how you were going to avoid collision -- my assumption was since the pattern wasn't a "single cycle" loop (whose total length presumably depends on the LCM…

Or alternatively, write it as a CSS animation and modify it on collision.

Or that they don't run real Android but some lagging downstream vendor-specific bloatware...

Does this mean I'll soon be setting up an dummy "cookie maker" endpoint on my server that turns XHR body data into HTTPS cookie data as a workaround? :/

I don't know what the situation is like in Norway, but I 100% don't blame MDs in the US for trying to find their own treatments, because they're generally being left high and dry b…

The BookBaby links there were timing out for me, but I found it at https://store.bookbaby.com/book/apocalypse-the-memoir

To be clear, I didn't really mean "spam proper", moreso the flea market / carnival barker language, eg "REAL 100% HD VIDEO BRAND-NEW CANON REBEL 5T QUICK SHIP WITH ORIGINAL LENS KI…

Being "born from spam" really explains a lot about how most eBay sellers communicate to this day.
