There's this classic by VSauce about the same topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I5Q3UXkGd0

I still don't understand the title, no matter how hard I try. Is there a word missing? A misspelling?

Just yesterday I've been flashing Raspberry OS to a micro SD card. Not succeeding with Balena Etcher, I opted to use the RPi imager tool, which did work (which might be an issue no…

The link you provided gives a 404. This one works: https://about.system.com/blog/announcing-the-public-beta-of-...

Very recognizable. I've used Hugo for exactly one website, as a first introduction to static site generators. The site still runs, and if I need to change something running the `hu…

Since a few months, firefox by default doesn't switch from incognito back to normal mode when I close the only remaining incognito tab. Can probably be attributed to increased priv…

Pinch to zoom doesn't work, and I can't find another option to increase the font size. This is on mobile. Are you by chance on pc?

For those like me who still couldn't find it: there's a small menu button on the top left. Maybe it's because I'm on mobile, but it's a bit hard to see.

For those wondering, like me, what SymPy is, the top of https://docs.sympy.org/latest/index.html explains it: > SymPy is a Python library for symbolic mathematics. Both the release…

Evert time I see a techcrunch link on HN I automatically skip it. The site's cookie pop-up has all the dark patterns. If I go to techcrunch.com, the cookie pop-up has a long piece …
