But the author tried to show exactly that, if screenshots during animation don't look sensible, it points to animation as a whole not making sense - it being either messy, overlapp…

I...have to agree about siding against the web...An optimistic part of me sees this as a move that pushes in the same direction that the "web" has already been going in for a long …

I've never heard it mixed (not from US)... "Is bear a Catholic?" doesn't seem very funny. But a notion that everyone knows how Pope is regularly shitting in the woods absolutely is…

And do you feel that the industry in general, and individual companies are currently trying to augment / 10x their workers and have everyone share in the 10x profits that will brin…

Thanks for a thoughtful and longer-form reply. All of these ideas absolutely make sense - and their challenges and compromises could be worked on, of course. But, even starting to …

Why do you think that is? Hint: taxing people buying food, which is getting worse and worse, while the top 0.01% gets more and more rich and keeps making it worse, is maybe not the…

I switched from M1 MBP to Asus Zenbook S16 with Ryzen HX370. A bit better performance, better screen, design, comparable battery, ok keyboard... I switched mostly because I was mis…

WordPress is the most popular CMS, and, at any moment in time, especially lately, there are a lot of people looking for a "WP alternative". I agree that it's not actually compatibl…

Moving the goalpost / strawman, and appeal to emotion. Please learn to discuss without resorting to these kinds of methods. All the best to you.

For "no reason" - hah, this must be the most blatant ignoring of reality I've seen in this thread, and that's a very high bar to cross. To be clear, I have nothing to do with neith…

Not sure if you realize that you could easily be talking about Israel.

...or in lying, cheating, taking over the company network to kill the agent who deduced their points.

I always make sure to consider there are 2 sides to the story and details and nuance make all the difference in how the actual situation unfolded - but it's really, really, difficu…

I'm not sure how much that will pay off - it also gives China legitimacy in starting to much more overtly pursue their own interests through force. I definitely wouldn't be surpris…

A similar scenario to this played out in Yugoslavia and overthrowing of the previously proven, and definitely not 90% manufactured "evil, genocidal and dictatorship regime" of Slob…

Looks great and congrats on building and shipping a well-rounded and usable product. Looking forward to trying it out this evening.

Thank you for the heartfelt reply - I wish to apologize for crude assumptions I made. My view of how people are getting affected by AI and choosing to degrade values that should ma…

1) the person is either too lazy to write themselves anymore, when AI can do it in 15 sec after being provided 1 sentence of input, or they adopted a mindset of "bro, if I spent 2 …

As someone for whom English is not the first language, I got stumped by the "chest freezer" and the photo of colourful bags, for good ~15 seconds, going through - "hm, must be some…

Do you mean because the previous "flagship killer" company now needed a "flagship killer" sub-brand, since they could no longer be categorised as such?

I picked up "Atomic Habits" recently, tbh mostly because I've seen it being hyped all over - I was expecting it to be along the lines of "if you just do X for even 5 min every day.…

Socialism = tyranny? Wow. I guess you prefer the freedom of being bankrupted if you get injured, and getting taken by masked men from an unmarked van if you got some tan on your va…

I adore my Linux setup and have switched back to it after using M1 Pro for 3 years. But through all the Dells, Thinkpads and Asus laptops I've had (~10), none were remotely close t…
