Do you, or anyone else here, have any experience with using a slide duplicator on a macro lens with a digital camera, DSLR, for 25 mm slide duplication? Especially I wonder if you'…

As other's have mentioned, the lies about WMD where rather quickly dispelled, and doesn't compare to moon landing conspiracy. As far as I understand the WMD fraud was successful in…

Yes, regularly. Some archaic code has a surprising longevity. Personally at least once per month I end up with a case where I wonder why some code was implemented or for what purpo…

As a swede this is a bit embarrassing to me. I have a few friends who's bought into this completely, and of course bought the book. All without even a hint of critical thinking. It…

Can anyone now give a reasonable ETA for the HTTP/3 RFC:s? I see that the WG charter has one milestone in May 2020, and Daniel Stenberg of curl has mentioned early 2020 before. In …

I fail to find any specific references to these policies forbidding use of executables not embedded in the apk. Not saying it's wrong, it's just news to me. Does it apply only to a…

Is it possible for the states they traveled through to revoke their drivers licenses? I mean they've presented ample evidence that they've intentionally exceeded speed limits on av…

Thanks for the example video! I note that the example skipped one crucial step, to scan for available devices. Scanning and enumerating available devices, and selecting a device, i…

If an extending class does not implement a method which is implemented by its super class, a call to that method on a instance of the extending class will invoke the super class' i…

At work we're migrating to openjdk obviously. But I'm curious what is the cost of a commercial Oracle JDK license? Is the price per server, per cpu/core, per users? Anyone got a ba…

Having both a renewable and sustainable sourcing of biofuels is important, and EU actors have a obligation to the world to improve. That said, SCHiM's statements makes it sound lik…

The closest I got to definition of "healthy low X" was a general description of the approach in the paper: "Briefly, the main goals were to achieve maximal differentiation in intak…

That argument is skipping straight to the "Profit!" point. A somewhat distant Star Trek future where resources are distributed evenly among all. I'd like that to happen, but I'll b…

Where will your money, which you have to have to buy the incredibly cheap things or services, come from when you do not have a job any more? We already have a job market where a si…

Well it isn't as black and white as you're painting it. It is correct that sometimes law enforcement are obliged to enforce laws they as a group or as individuals do not agree with…

Technically Mattermost is very interesting. Unfortunately I cannot figure out their licensing scheme and business model. The license file mentions several licenses: AGPL, Apache 2,…

With bluetooth you need to consider radio interference between the sensor and the main device. In my experience that increases complexity of the sensor, and is something you largel…

Is Null a tasty treat? Can I have the recipe?

If you look beyond the fun poking and focus on the facts, you'll still find that the trickle down economic policy your argument imply simply doesn't work. https://psmag.com/the-imf…

Another option is to perform a sleep study at home. You borrow a wearable device that records your sleep quality, breath, ECG, etc. You wear it over night, then turn it in for anal…

Wikipedia is quick to point out that there isn't any scientific support for "adrenal fatigue". What else in your comment is non-fact based? Please don't bring pseudoscience to HN, …

Yes, we're all simply unfit sloths, standing up is physically demanding and that's why standups must be short. :) Seriously though, my impression is that standing up encourages bre…

No, it isn't short-sighted. On the contrary it is a matter of letting Microsoft earn their trust again at a reasonable pace after almost two decades of systematic abuse. The Hallow…

Have you? It isn't pretty when printed from Chrome or Firefox. https://imgur.com/JCHfEjy

I do not know about in general but where I work we physically stand up during daily standups. My impression is that the standing up part really works too. We usually get quite rest…
