    This is my exact experience! I really tried for 6 months and I just couldn't avoid fumbling around. For example, the experience of going in/out of fullscreen is jarring. What's fun…

    I work in this space of measuring (mostly coastal) water levels and it's pretty amazing how many different vertical datums there are. When people say something has a height of X, y…

    If people didn't notice, this was built by a 13 year old. This is a fun space to be building stuff in. Neat little project and I hope you keep it up!

    I don't understand the answers to your "what is a legitimate website with a malicious owner" question, but I kinda see this as the same concern as downloading a phone app that requ…

    Misinformation is a security risk that comes both from deliberate sabotage as well as monetary incentives. If it bleeds, it leads. I'm not in favor of censorship like this or socia…

    Interesting! I wonder how long ago (if ever) eclipses weren't even possible

    Is it just coincidence that from our point of view the moon looks like it's the exact same size as the sun? Or is there something else going on?

    I'm less than 500 meters as well and it's pretty surprising how much I enjoy going into the office. I was previously working from home for several years and never thought I'd go ba…

    So is the idea (for the last/$20k one) that you would convince someone to paste your maliciously crafted prompt to steal their data? The other post[0] of the same exploit is really…
