    I think it depends on the use case. My understanding is the more popular panels for color ereaders releasing now are the E Ink Kaleido (3) due to their faster refresh rates. Other …

    I suspect you'll have much better luck directly implementing the style you want rather than trying to get a (current gen) AI to reliably generate ANSI art. This video is a nice ove…

    FYI, the layout for the navigation component is broken on many smaller screen sizes. It's a small issue that I wouldn't mention normally, but it does undercut your messaging about …

    You could check out FAKE. It’s pretty popular in the F# community. While not C#, the terser syntax may be beneficial for a build DSL and you still have access to .NET APIs. https:/…

    I came away much less impressed than you did. The "step by step analysis" consists mostly of it considering, ruling out, and reconsidering an obviously invalid move. The code that …

    Somewhat interestingly, "Mario Bros." now refers to the last name of the pair of plumber brothers, making their full names "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario" respectively. This wasn't…

    This is a good summary. SolidWorks does have a lower cost license for makers/hobbyists for personal use but it’s a little difficult to find from their main marketing pages. https:/…

    Polynesian use of outrigger canoes is well documented. Are you claiming all outriggers are catamarans? Why be pedantic about this?

    I was curious about your defense of Matt's behavior in this thread but your empathy makes sense given that you work on a similar project that you describe as: > A static site that …

    Please stop posting low effort LLM summaries of HN text posts. It doesn’t add anything to the discussion and is literally spam.

    Odd to see that in a press release like this. Perhaps they were going for “crack team”. Cracked makes it sound like they’re looking for twitch streamers.

    This is a recurring theme on the 5-4 podcast. You may want to reference their episode list as a starting point for relevant cases to research.

    One team I was on had a bug where the product name was so long that it was being truncated in the about dialog. It was something like: Microsoft Dynamics® CRM 2011 for Microsoft® O…

    The idea is that you have a specific entry price in mind and are waiting until it drops to that point. While you wait, you can collect a premium from selling the option. Let's say …

    I don't think you should use Apple to put upgrade pricing in perspective. They've used inflated pricing to extract extra money from a captive audience for many years. Other OEMs ca…

    I've actually been avoiding TurboTax for about 3 years now. Mostly due to dissatisfaction with their lobbying policy.

    I will be boycotting TurboTax this year. Their latest ad campaign[1] is particularly egregious. It claims that (with TurboTax's help) "people can be good at anything... even taxes"…

    As an alternative to the "remap caps lock to esc or ctrl" crowd, I'd like to suggest remapping to scroll lock. I don't need easier access to esc or ctrl, so I decided to pick a dif…

    This is generally my workflow as well. One useful tip is that Alt+PrintScreen will scope the screenshot to only the active/focused window, reducing the need for additional cropping…

    Hasn't this been addressed by products like AliveCor's kardia line for a while now? I'd prefer the form factor of a phone-paired device over a watch in a multi-patient environment.…

    Cmder is a package of Conemu (already mentioned by ZenoArrow), Clink, and Unix tools with a nicer theme. It's the best that I've tried on Windows. http://cmder.net/ Hyper also has …
