That you think this way (and if like me, it makes you excited!) I think it's because it has clicked for you. For many that light bulb above their head doesn't flash on, hence they …

But what if we find the exact same face in different rocks or pixels? I also think the researchers were aware of this issue as the article mentions they were careful not bias their…

I have a curious question. My local setup has worked for me for ages ever since arch decided to switch to systemd. Same on the servers I deal with, after Debian's switch. At the sa…

I asked them: twice a day, 10 minutes each. No need to put too much pressure, that is, no need to make yourself uncomfortable during practice. Weight loss & less snoring should app…

Sadly the (non-english) whatsapp group is no longer available. There wasn't really more to it; you had to practice circular breathing daily and post an update. But the teacher want…

Depression

Just learned from comments here it's called "circular breathing"!

A friend of mine started "blowing air into water with an straw" (making bubbles) very seriously. I was very skeptical to say the least; but after a couple of months the effects hav…

I had an old projector; If the film roll stopped for any reason (operator error, getting stuck, etc...), the lamp was so bright that it'd catch fire.

I'll remove the comment then

Off topic, removed

Except when I wanted to get ChatGPT or Claude to criticize a religion or religious figure, namely Khamenei. It never backed down and if forced too much and I pointed out its contra…

> Locals which the programmer desires to be spilled could be annotated, making the performance cost visible in the source. > I’ve never heard of anyone asking for such a feature. N…

{Personal experience} many many years when beginning SWE, I used to think the same. I didn't want to admit but it meant I didn't have to learn DSA. There was plenty of evidence to …

Proton let's me bring my own subdomain for those random emails and does a pretty good job of tracking which email is given to whom, and also supports hiding your email even if you …

I always thought to do this visualization in 3d and maybe with VR. Not sure how useful or pleasing experience it would be. Kudos to the author of the project to get this done!

I think it's where one plugs the external world into in their brain. For my daily work, I plug the desktop to my current thought stream (or short term memory?). Anything not immedi…

I declare a `my_die() { echo "$ " 1>&2; exit 1; }` on top of each file. Makes life easier by knowing why the script failed instead of having only exit code or having to turn `set -…

I agree with your both of your observations; And I also think what's missing is the acknowledgement that connects the two. Students come with the expectation of "chew it for me" an…

At the time, the banks weren't app first. It was USSD, SMS and web, so they didn't care. But yes, the banking and streaming apps too (regardless of their existence being good or ba…

Correction: half a century.

Reminds me of Nokia/Symbian. To install a `.sis(x)` with any useful capabilities (permissions in Android) one needed to sign it with Nokia's keys; which they normally couldn't, at …

No country should generally decide something for people of another country, but let's say it's a exceptional case and it's a war tactic, as a response to an external threat. Then h…

The original PoC I had was incredibly simple: Just a python script that read traffic on a port on localhost, rotate each byte by a hard-coded number like 13, and send it over the w…

Makes sense; the "3 days" you mention reminds me of something sad ~10 years ago. At an expo, there was this company "Dowran" with a banner boasting about "adjustable internet disru…
