This comment is so interesting because clearly, it's the unvisited color that's broken, you know this, and you even typed it out, but it is so common for visited links to be darker…

I'm hoping they mean the prerelease implementation was only creating leaks due to bugs that have been fixed, so a machine that runs the release implementation for the same amount o…

This is also important for being able to show normal size text on smaller phones. I've got a 5.8" screen and basically every app is visually broken, with about 10% functionally bro…

The explainxkcd wiki says that cats were added later, and that permalinks go to a snapshot of the machine. So it's possible all the cats are lower in the machine, or the permalink …

I agree that memory size isn't going to matter much, but memory speed should be noticeable, especially on large projects.

It's definitely blending between sphere and torus, and then torus and sphere. Otherwise it would keep getting fainter as time went on.

It's nice to have something that the humans know with absolute certainty so that we know much to trust the machines.

My guess is either compression or stuff lingering in RAM. The CPU can't be smart here since it doesn't know what any of the future ifs will be. It doesn't know they're in order, or…

For resolutions over 1080, it's only VP9 (and I guess AV1 for some videos), at least from the user perspective. 1080 and lower have H264, though. And I don't think the resolutions …

I was expecting to find out how much data YouTube has, but that number wasn't present. I've used the stats to roughly calculate that the average video is 500 seconds long. Then usi…

The most important thing is to sort by date modified by default. Usually, the file you want is very new. After that I mostly just use "pic:" or "path:".

Nothing's thing was a branded version of Sunbird https://www.sunbirdapp.com/ which is technically similar to the iMessage part of Beeper Cloud. It is essentially a way for you to l…

Most likely yes. However, if you don't specify the argument type, it compiles fine. It's rare that you need to specify argument or return types on a closure, so it's not actually a…

This is definitely not helped by Rocket. Even I, knowing Rust well, don't enjoy the way Rocket puts so much logic into attribute macros and function signatures.

I get the reason, but there's no need to worry. Most people here know that links aren't personal unless it's a Show/Ask/Tell HN. You can find other examples on the front page. HN h…

This is removing the video stream (-vn) so that's not involved. Not sure which parts are in parallel here, but I'm guessing decoding and encoding the audio.

Barely anyone is going to go to the github, especially outside of HN, and only some of those people are going to read past the first image, so it's important that you get the most …

The syntax definitions on github are 1. not on the site, and 2. not very good, so here's some better ones: F (fill/forward): draw a pixel and move forward C (color): change the col…

I think it means error correction would be handled by a higher level.

The image itself links to the full resolution. But this is high-resolution compared to other photos of sprites, not high-resolution compared to photos in general.

Maybe this is too obvious to spend words on, but it's really weird that neither actually define eye rubbing, specifically as being with the eyelids closed. The first one even has a…

They're not even temporarily on Discord. They're straight from Tenor.

Comment #37698455
The reaction gifs specifically (from the gif picker) are hosted by Tenor. But surely they're deduplicating the other images already. I've never seen any evidence either way. Making…
