Your English is great, by the way.

You are describing exactly the Dunning-Kruger Effect[0] in action. I’ve worked with some very bright yet less technical people who think the output is some sort of magic lamp and vastly overindex on it. It’s very hard as an engineer to explain this to them.

Probably not since they likely aren’t even turning a profit ;)

And even if they were smuggling drugs, what if there were children on board? Do they deserve to die because of the crimes of their parents? What if they kidnapped someone and forced them to pilot the boat? Does that person deserve to die?

Imagine the US instead pulling the ship over and shooting every person, regardless of age or guilt, in the head—and then leaving. This is no different.

Yeah, a lot of people on HN can’t seem to cope with the truth. I guess they’ll finally understand over the next 12 mos

There’s a lot of middleground between hobbyists and your company’s use ;) Most mid-sized publishers I’ve worked with are in the $4-10k/mo range depending on CDN availability

Who’s going to provide the proof? This is the best thing to go on until the people here are disproved as either not existing or having some other profession.

I don’t think it’s a cartel per se; that would require collusion to keep ink prices high.

What seems to have happened with the 2D printer market is a race to the bottom to provide customers with the cheapest printers possible while hiding the high [recouped] costs of the ink. Many consumers are duped into buying a cheap printer and not realizing the high cost of printing that comes with it.

This is why brands like Brother have been able to succeed, especially pushing their laser printers: higher upfront hardware cost and cheaper ink.

I bought an inexpensive used Mac Mini and attached a standard HDD USB3 enclosure to it with multiple drives. Works great for streaming to any network appliance I want to use.

Yes it is just correctly responding to window resize and device rotation events

Very good implementation for sure

The fact you’re taking this opportunity to state this clip was hard for you to watch says a lot about your ability to consider another’s perspective in this conversation. I’m out.

If his administration’s concern was about turning the temperature up, they are doing absolutely nothing to turn it down.

Yes, exactly. They’re exercising a power they don’t have, which should not hold up in a lawful country. Obviously, here we are.

The FCC does not have the power to shut down broadcasts based on their content.

He didn’t say anything violent. Have you watched the monologue?

Even if he did (which he didn’t), I don’t see Fox shutting down anything when one of their presenters recently stated, on air, that we should euthanize our homeless population.

Another pitfall is SEO: the SEO team might tell us they need a certain element on the page to be an h2, for SEO purposes, but it needs different styling than other h2s on the page.

MUI solves this problem by having different typography sizes defined in the theme, and then you specify variant=“h2” on an arbitrary Typography component and all the styling is consistent.

One more reason I always choose or recommend MUI for all new projects.

We are humans.

Tesla’s robots during that investor event were shown to be controlled by humans wearing mimicking hardware

I had a channel (hit ~40k subs from ~15 videos), largely centered around hobby electronics, 3D printing, Raspberry Pi, etc. I stopped publishing videos around 2020 because the economics just didn’t make sense. I didn’t want to release subpar videos and was always challenging myself to improve production quality. It was fun, until it wasn’t. It took several days to shoot and edit a video. I’d publish it, it would do well, but YouTube paid such paltry revenue. I didn’t want to chase sponsorships because those don’t pay much either. I decided to focus my creative efforts elsewhere. I know things are even worse for YouTube creators now, given the ad market collapse and higher competition in the attention economy. I firmly believe that Google could reverse the trend if they spun up some pilot programs around assisting creators that match a certain algorithm to produce and scale video content—and pay them more so they can afford to take the time. Tl;dr; money and competition. But mostly money.

It’s just the default block-level containing element, so it serves its place but is not well explained in these tutorials (just as spans are the default inline element).

In my 25 years of experience writing HTML and CSS most engineers don’t understand semantic HTML, nor do they take the time to learn it; largely because companies don’t value it, unless they’re heavily SEO-focused companies.

I once worked at a company that would run an HTML5 validation test in our CI/CD pipeline. That was very helpful as it identified invalidly nested elements and taught proper semantic HTML.

You will need to write custom CSS, but collapsible trees are totally possible to do purely in CSS in any framework via a simple combination of checkboxes, labels, pseudo-classes and CSS combinators.

The `:checked` selector allows you to target checkboxes that are checked. So you can have a set of checkboxes (off screen with an absolute negative position or similar) that are controlled via a <label> element that wraps the + or - text in the tree. Then based on its state, you can target elements directly afterward to be expanded or contracted using the CSS adjacent sibling combinator.

Checkboxes are neat because they provide state management natively in the DOM and you can do a lot via CSS based on that ;) Thus, you have pure HTML and CSS collapsible trees.

I would say a $140 LIDAR system that’s currently being used in production cars [somewhere] is better than a $0 non-existent LIDAR system. Pair a cheap LIDAR system with some nice cameras and perhaps you can make up much of the difference in software.

Yeah, xAi is messing with their models to force political leanings. Doesn’t instill confidence using it for my business.

Would also be a fun way to animate the bar and animate the full being “sketched in”.

Love the design btw, very fun to build I imagine

You can also pick up used older printers (like the Ender 3) secondhand VERY cheap and convert them.

Right, but I don’t want to open tabs and Google terms right after I start reading an article ;) Even as a super technical person

Interesting idea! Could someone use the software to train an LLM prompt that will get around it? By learning what passes and what doesn’t and then having the LLM train on that

Very cool idea, best of luck! This is the kind of “unsexy” software that has the potential to make boatloads of money. And it’s still fun to build.

This is really cool! The first game works great on mobile too.

I would suggest speeding up the speed that the text renders on the screen. The average person reads 250-300wpm, but you could probably speed this up a bit more and just leave it on the screen long enough to ensure the lower bound is met.

Love this! Did you make Diskprices.com or just inspired by it?
