    It’s definitely a weird scenario. It seems everyone in the Durable Medical Equipment space for diabetes stuff just wants everything to be a smartphone app now- which is fine honest…

    The source txtfile has since either been dos'd or deleted (at least it was when I tried to access) Someone dumped the content into a google doc on reddit[1] if anyone's interested.…

    Can you actually explain why the phrase you cited from OP is wrong? You say that ~”files need to be linked to from somewhere” is correct. How is a file linked to from somewhere [on…

    This site never ceases to surprise me with new username jumpscares (no negative connotation intended) I had no idea you were an (ex?) sysadmin! Apologies for the offtopic driveby r…

    I'm entirely unfamiliar with the vr rendering space, so all I have to go on is what (I think) your comment implies. Is the current state of VR rendering really just rendering and t…

    I think it depends on whether or not you have good 6ghz connectivity. The headset comes with a 6ghz usb dongle pluggable to your rendering PC for locales without a 6ghz router or g…

    Per the LTT video [0], the new Steam Frame controllers will have a (separately purchasable) accessory pack which includes a knuckles-like strap. Supposedly the controllers have eno…

    It doesn't take being outside of the west for this to be relevant. Two places I currently frequent, A) the software development offices of a fortune 500 company, and B) the entire …

    What a neat thing to see crop up on hackernews. I did a mini report on guédelon in one of my French courses in Uni. The name immediately threw me back to memories of trying to desc…

    Not sure of the rest of the world, but at least in the US, patenting “software” is a pretty murky subject legally (at least it feels that way when trying to do some basic research …

    A slippery slope is fallacious when the argument is made with little evidence or reasoning to connect the current state/action to the supposed bottom of the slope. Whether or not y…
