    I reported a security bug, it was all processed very quickly and I got paid. I doubt my situation is unique. I think it would be the individual companies slowing things down, not t…

    There's little to no incentive to buy human sized cars usually. Parking costs the same, tolls can cost the same, insurance I have no idea but I don't think size matters, and perhap…

    One of the worst I've seen was title editorialized from original "Someone: something [x.com]" to just "Something [x.com]".

    Not surprised, considering how bad it is. Even the simplest tasks trigger a safety. I couldn't imagine paying for it extra.

    My though process: 1. These abstract product visuals are not helping me understand what this software is 2. Wait, it's all about these renders, it's some kind of a joke 3. I don't …

    Just to add, the regulations you mention aren't even about AC, it's about modifying buildings' "looks". You can still install AC if you figure out where to put the outside unit - r…

    Outside air temperature isn't an issue. It's not like people drop dead the moment it hits 40. The problem is that after a few days of that everything is heated up through and you h…

    My favorite renderer of OSM (and possibly other data) https://mapy.com/en/turisticka?x=-3.1744145&y=55.9517954&z=1... there's an app too, some features are paid, and there are some…

    Discord threads are just an addon on top of a chat. It's not really a real discussion. And the discord discussions (or whatever it is called) are again flat IIRC? Slack threads are…

    There's another option. Combining both threads and chronological order.

    Comment #48757014

    You can have both threaded discussions and chronological ordering of top level comments. It works really well.

    These vibes are pretty obvious even with casual use. Weekends are so much better.

    This looks super intriguing but also maybe too much. Love that it exists, not sure if I will try it.

    That's the same in my native language too I guess. It's used in books, sometimes in media, but not really in any casual setting I would say.

    I have mac, typed this --- again --- and nothing? Layout says U.S. edit: another comment gave a mac shortcut – — - <--- one of these might be it

    I've only ever been using "regular" dash, a minus, for that. How do you even type yours? If I ever needed differently-sized dashes (and I don't know the difference between them) I …

    The flip, I think, is realistic enough. It could be just slower and the speed of turnaround reflect whether the loco needs to turn around. But the slow reverse that can be solved w…

    I always know what kind of game I want to play, but it's overwhelming to set up, if even possible. It's tons of packages, forums, idk.. so I just end up playing vanilla, with maybe…

    The article has an explanation for what kind of database it is. After reading that one sentence you wouldn't write the second paragraph. > it's optimized for the kind of queries th…

    If the correctness check was vibecoded there's a good chance it was cheated. So maybe that, on top of the, you know, code review (see the sibling comment). While PRs may have been …

    You cannot deliver feedback on something that doesn't exist. If you mean a review in the style of "all of this is wrong and needs to be rewritten differently" then yes, that's some…

    But what if you have English configured as a preferred language? Isn't that what it's for? Wouldn't it make sense for a website to respect that (when available)? I hate that google…

    Couldn't it also be case where the pesticides are fine to use on potatoes but not on tomatoes, for example?
