Have you seen expensive tanks and helicopters being taken out by 500$ drones? No? I have a surprise for you

Funny how the project aims to fight AI scraping, but seems to be using an AI-generated image of a bird?

I am working on a home-oriented solution (hardware box + software) for backups of the media files from phones. The solution facilitates having a separate backup drive (stored in a …

Excuse me, but if the problem is in overloading of local networks, popcorning full-quality vs streaming downsampled might revert their efforts in cutting traffic, which might be fo…

> Most of them are smart enough to come up with a system if that problem actually arises Well, I'm afraid whatever the system might be, it's definitely not going to favor the newco…

Listopad is a Ukrainian word for October

Can we thank getty by popularizing free photography sites like unsplash? Any other alternatives?

If you're a photographer - upload your stuff to unsplash. Free high-quality content for casual use is something getty can't compete with, leaving them only with specialized markets…

It's a pity most compare it to Lightroom, whereas there are more sound competitors - take a look at RawTherapee, Capture One, ON1 Photo RAW or SilkyPix. All of them have ups and do…

Thanks, for paradox. It's not a wild west when you call people out because they are unpleasant. In modern world (as I see it) you create a competition and public follows best one.

Thanks, I got your point, and I don't value Torvalds over other people, but I value his kernel engineering skills over other people's kernel engineering skills. You know, if it has…

You don't tolerate them but want them to tolerate others. TBH, I'd be totally fine if Linus ranted over my code because that's the way he is and I don't believe in community that t…

As a native speaker I can assure you that the ukrainian word Krai (край) has two meanings - a land and a border. But border only of a physical thing - of a cup, table or watch. Nev…

this. cannot upvote more, it's the actual reason we've been harassed for so many years - to make the history shared.

Each nation deserves the leader they have. Before Putin there was Stalin, before Stalin there was Lenin, before him there were tsars, before them there was the Golden Horde (that h…

Don't forget Ukraine, bro. Now we're trying to keep distance from Russia as far as we can. We had some shared history, but that's only because of our geographical proximity. Everyt…

So what should cathedrals do? Rely on the unpredictive bazaar? They're [Kubernetes, Mesos, etc] not so great for a small team [or individuals] who are just trying to deploy some so…

Write a damn unit test for your padding function. We should share unit tests, not one-line libs. Libs with unit tests can be one-liners and be as fine-grained as we like, since it'…

I agree with you, we can estimate the amount of polonium he ingested, but we surely cannot estimate the amount of polonium involved in that operation.

I wouldn't say current Ukrainian government started as a "regime hostile to Russia". Annexiation of Crimea made it hostile to Russia

What he's doing in Ukraine is example of impulsive actions. Crimean scenario, I believe, was planned during the past decade or so.
