190ms? You lucky bastard! (hopefully you're familiar with Monty Python...)

I'm sure there are many better alternatives to .env, but its ubiquity and support across various tools makes it super convenient. I'm using 1Password's .env integration[1] and alth…

> typing is a joy on the increased size Huh. I hate typing on my phone (iPhone 16e). It actually never occurred to me that maybe I'd have a better time with a larger screen. Althou…

The regulations currently require all passenger aircraft to be able to maintain positive static stability, which is inherently at odds with the aerodynamics of an all-wing design. …

The design has been in the works since at least the late 1980s which is when the B-2 stealth bomber was developed. For an all-wing design to work the onboard flight control system …

I appreciated both yours and the parent's comment. I read the shorter answer first, which was accessible enough to a layman like me that I was left wanting more, which made reading…

Note: I never said it should be different and certainly wasn't arguing for any side. I was merely making an observation that the settlement seemed like a good deal (for both partie…

It's not bad value at AUD$4.99 per month (education pricing). I only really use it for Final Cut Pro though.

I stand corrected then. It's been over a decade since I last used Photoshop, so my familiarity with its capabilities are obviously well out of date, I never would've considered it …

Surely you've got Photoshop (raster) and Illustrator (vector) mixed up?

IANAL, but the parent comment quotes "any profits of the infringer that are attributable to the infringement", which I take to mean it's the profit Anthropic stands to make based o…

It's unlikely the USA would be granted an exclusive patent for the atomic bomb given the well-established existence of prior-art in the form of nuclear fission on the sun. (I actua…

Thanks for sharing this, I'm not sure I would've come across it otherwise. Ironically, watching the two shorts had me second-guessing whether what I was watching was actually AI-ge…

You mentioned Bosch and I can't think of anywhere or anyone else who'd be interested in this little bit of trivia, so a random comment on a thread about filing the edges off a lapt…

I have a static route configured on my home's gateway that enables any device on my network to access Tailscale. I have Tailscale turned on my iPhone pretty much all the time anywa…

Given the hour this is making headlines, they'll be posting a lot of CDs to the antipodes.

I can't speak for the others, but registering a .aero domain requires submitting an application that's reviewed by a human and assessed based on the domain's relevancy to the aviat…

Some of my favourite fonts I only discovered because I first visited a site that included it in their design.

I've owned several pairs of AirPods over the years and this is the first I'm learning about some of their features. I almost found myself wanting there to be a third column for ind…

I absolutely adore my 2018 jailbroken LG OLED, although it pains me that everything I love about this TV are features the manufacturer actively discourages and wishes I never had a…

I think that's what everyone is going to think. Hot take: At least they're ripping the bandaid now instead of stringing users along and eventually abandoning it like they normally …

I never really used the Antigravity IDE, but had it installed. The update also made me do a double take and wonder what the hell was going on. It seems like Google is hitting the r…

It appeals to me as a minimalistic version of the Bear[1] notes app. A few years ago I played around with copying the Bear app interface for the web, the idea was to create a visua…

Similarly I remember being at Australia Post discussing data privacy for a project and I couldn't help but make the wisecrack remark "don't y'all routinely distribute millions of i…
