Seems very similar to this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22064530 (Which isn’t exactly a great thing)...

I agree that it delves into the realm of triviality that’s not worth the costs of developing the policy and enforcing it.

Thank you for pointing that out. I generally stick to as much plain vanilla Django as possible. This may be dimwitted of me but I currently return a jsonresponse dict as my ‘api.’ …

Same here - I’ve been considering the Ryobi riding mower. Cub Cadet has an electric rider as well. It’s interesting, if you can mod your kids power wheels, these riding mowers are …

I'm a fan of django but have been looking for an alternative to DRF. I'll give this a try - thank you for developing this. Looks interesting!

You have a point re: vindictiveness and pettiness. I clicked the link and immediately scrolled into the article failing to notice the author. After about 30 seconds I had the follo…

This is a pretty good idea. I'd be surprised if there isn't already an engineering / SW team doing this to create better tools / conditions. Maybe there's a way to pull request you…

I guess the poll questions are useful in terms of unrestricted reopening but say nothing about support for partial reopening / reopening with conditions - which in of itself is a b…

You’re right g.711 is not ideal either. Jitter is a killer. T.38 is a solution when it’s supported on both sides and it is often not. The best solution is email but apparently ever…

Fax has an ip protocol called t.38 however it is inconsistently implemented. Most services still rely on g.711 - essentially uncompressed voice - for transmission of fax tones. How…

Sounds great. We just broke out our kitchen aid which had sat dormant next to the bread machine for years. I didn’t know it had a mill attachment but I guess I’m not surprised.

As in a business or the machinery to use at home?

Great advice thank you. Where are you finding the spelt and whole wheat?

Thank you for adding these points. I did not know about the yeast - so thank you!

We just finished our 25lb bag from the Ebola panic buying days... make sure before you buy a ton of flour you know what you’re going to do with it. Bread isn’t very good without ye…

This is why I like hacker news...

After reading this I feel like he shouldn't quit his job as a columnist even in the best of times. I think a lot of people keep looking for a dip to buy and being disappointed when…

I remember reading once they generate more a G of force just letting off the accelerator. Back in the day, Nigel Mansell had to leave for a few months for an injury. His next race …

Heh my neighborhood looks like night of the comet... no one out and about at all. No cars... a lone pedestrian every once in awhile.

Thumbs up for typing club. I put my kids on it. I took a typing course when I was 15 and TC most closely resembles that instruction.

If I understand it right this impacts the reserve kept for loans. It keeps banks from calling in loans for all sorts of businesses - particularly those that are owned by your neigh…

Thank you for articulating this. Outside a crisis, I don’t think we should have a standing policy like this in the United States. If you consider the issue from a first principles …

No I’m just a business owner who hasn’t paid himself a salary in over a year despite paying the salaries of many others. But yes let’s just keep throwing out those stereotypes. I a…

I did just read this [1] and do agree that the strategy in South Korea was productive. I think a variant of that where local hospitals provide testing could be useful here in the U…
