I’m loving it! It was quite the jump from a standard layout to split + ortholinear + column stagger but within a week I was comfortable using it in the office. No strain from using…

I wish I had seen this a few months sooner! I have solved the problem with hardware via a Keyball: https://github.com/Yowkees/keyball/blob/main/keyball44/doc/r...

The lid prevents leaks by acting as a physical gap between the ball and whatever it would write/leak on :) Imagine putting a pen, ball down, into a breast pocket with vs without a …

Olympic lifting is technical and precise. Great if you would like something more physically involved. If you have a club near you, gliding is a relatively cheap hobby. Otherwise su…

My manager is experiencing the same due to a bout of long covid. The way it appears he is dealing with it, from my perspective, is he has delegated the things which require immedia…

When I read the post, my initial thought that 125 p/m was on the expensive side!

(UK) The govt. does not force the employer to continue employing you - but they do guarantee you are given a fair amount of notice and some severance pay depending on tenure. The a…

You’re very welcome to ask for clarification - I kept it abstract because there is a lot of grey area and it’s something we need to understand and discuss as technology and society…

I would say the barrier to entry is stopping a lot of ‘candid’ unsafe behaviour. I think you allude to it yourself in implying currently it requires a professional to achieve the s…

It’s my anecdotal experience that this really was not the case at boarding school. Yes - it’s tough being separated from parents and family at a young age Yes - of course there are…

My interpretation of your quote was that the boiling wasn’t referring to the heat produced, but instead the idea that mass (our planet) is being converted to energy, reducing the m…

Fiat 500s and that family of cars were designed for short, urban, European driving - they are naturally going to be terrible on highways. If long trips (> 1hr) are frequent then yo…

This is what Twitter used to be - I would log in, scroll down until I had seen all updates since I last checked and then left the app. This was, however, before you got tweets in y…

While not ideal, I’m glad that these robots are failing in a (somewhat) safe and orderly way

A fair point but unfair in that you are not also asking this of the OP. The status quo is that that a dedicated camera will be better than a smartphone (see other comments)

The problem here is there is no guarantee that you’ll be in a car for x amount of time _before_ having a crash. Geofencing might have to be the way

I don’t know if you are being tongue in cheek here, but in case you aren’t: It’s been done! https://www.centennialbulb.org

Other commenters have covered some economical reasons, but it is also an opportunity to provide for work for disabled people like in the ‘Dawn Avatar Robot Cafe’ in Tokyo where the…

I wonder how much that might be explained by variance around the mean

To echo what a few other posters have said, but the other way around: As a European who’s visited the states a few times, the portion sizes always amaze me. They are gargantuan in …

As a Mac user with the same gripe of the ctrl key placement: Remapping it to the caps lock works wonders :)

EDIT: To clarify - don't remove the entire image of a sneaker, just impute away the logo filling in the space with the 'context fill' algorithm found in photo editing tools

Slightly different implementation of your second option: Remove the logos in the dataset and train on this brand agnostic library

The skeptic in me says that people would take a freebie regardless of whether they actually need it or not. Maybe a slight improvement would be to offer the phone at full price min…
