In my experience, IPFS doesn't even do a good job of fully-online updates. Maybe my setup was bad, but I couldn't get it to reliably and quickly discover content on other nodes that were definitely online.

Wow, that's a lot of bad. How did they manage to create an account with your email address? Doesn't it require verification?

It's not about whether the person is "a success" or "a failure", it's about whether the person feels that their condition is materially impacting their daily life. If I feel that my gaming habit is impacting my job because I can't resist playing games during work hours, that can be classified as a disorder.

It's just shorthand for "this is something we'd like to fix".

How did that happen and why did it take weeks to resolve?

Yeah, but in the first case you go from 1000 files to 2, whereas in the second you go from 2 to 1, which is much less impressive.

Metrics are fun!

But then you will have achieved the TODO, ruining the joke.

Almost certainly a joke.

I saw the exact same thing and was surprised too! I wonder if it was a site that was on HN...

I press "accept all" by accident and thought "wow".

Maybe God put chicken eggs on the Earth.

Because blowing up weddings leads to dissatisfied voters, so politicians are less likely to do that very often.

And if fewer weddings get blown up, we'll use them more and more to kill people. I wonder whether the absolute number of killings will go up or down this way.

Or like those that make the "Accept all cookies" button green and the "accept necessary" white/colorless/default.

Same here, maybe it's my portrait-orientation screen.

* the web, not the internet.

Probably because reverse-engineering it is less effort than rewriting all the clients that Apple has already written.

Thonny looks great, thanks for the tip! I've had friends who had trouble understanding how return values work, this would help!

They certainly look like NSIS installers.

Apparently not, since the author couldn't/didn't want to either.

Oh damn, that's fantastic! I wanted to write a small server that did something between this and Fire above (i.e. allowed you to drop a Python script into a directory and would create a UI for its functions). It's a great way to make small, random functions I've written accessible to people with zero work.

> however it doesn't take away that often change is held back because of ...1-2%...

Don't you mean "because of 52%"?

Sure, but I don't speak much ancient Greek and I didn't want to make too many assumptions about what carried over versus what changed.

What good would that do, if the users aren't connecting to the network?

My comment was a rather tongue-in-cheek take of how Libera is carrying on the spirit of Freenode, and we should just consider Freenode a random other network that somehow got Freenode's name by accident.

He's super helpful in #python, great guy.

That's a nice hack. Also, if you can power it from somewhere, you can use a bare ESP8266 module and put it in the serial enclosure to make it fully self-contained.

> If animal testing was outlawed, the same testing would probably end up being done on poor people instead.

That's... quite the leap. The entire point is that ethics committees are much more averse to human testing than to animal testing, so we're less conscientious about animal testing.

> But they did not, themselves, perceive the two sounds as being different sounds.

This makes sense, thanks. I guess we generally don't perceive the different sounds in our languages, like an English speaker generally won't perceive the difference between t͟hə and t͟hē (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/the for audio).

Well, that's sound logic and a great quote, thanks!

Yeah, I'd expect pilots to talk like that, it just had an impression on me because I didn't expect a journalist explaining something to have the same vernacular.

Oh, then it's very different from what I want...
