    A word of caution: It's worth factoring in battery depreciation. That 7p→15p arbitrage isn’t "free" profit: you pay round-trip losses and you burn cycle life. If you assume ~£X ins…

    Ah, thanks. Didn't see that. One more downside of all these little individual pages.

    Interesting. It seems that the book assumes its audience is exclusively male without explicitly stating it. Might be a fit here for Hacker News, but even that assumption is already…

    This this this. You can ask it to write a test. You can ask it to fix it, if the test does not pass. You can ask it to check whether the code it wrote makes sense, and it will sure…

    What I would like to highlight is that it's still quite an achievement to be able at all to authenticate users with dozens of different APIs. Could it be better? Sure. Could it be …

    Using the term "female" to describe a woman can be perceived as reductive and dehumanizing because it reduces her to a biological category. By using the term "woman," the focus is …

    Sounds like you are suggesting First-Party Isolation (FPI) which you can enable in Firefox. Don't know what the state of it is, seems to be off by default, or depending on the trac…

    I feel like the other way around it's also pretty bad, if not worse. Technical things written in, or translated to, German sound so boring and stiff that you want to immediately ru…
