Swype keyboard used to have this feature built in. Put the cursor on a word, any word (made earlier by swype's edit keyboard, which had cursor controls), and tap the Swype key. You'd be presented with a list of alternates/stems, with the current word as the root. At minimum you got simple plurals

Gboard has a similar edit keyboard, although I find it's a tad harder to get to than Swype's
Canada largely avoids this problem by not allowing a subset of illegal people to exist in the country. Canadians are polite, but working in canada without some sort of legal status is far harder than in the US. They have lots of immigrants, but vanishingly few illegal ones in comparison to the US.
This is honestly why I carry my GPD MicroPC with me now, as its almost as portable as the phone, and unfathomably easier to do things like draft emails, do text editing and other basics, than my phone is.
Our body can assimilate 1 Alcoholic Unit per day without any problems. I doubt those bacteria would produce anything in that order of magnitude so I truly don't understand your reply. Did you just blindly write: "alcohol therefore bad"?
Wearing a respirator mask is substantially more pleasant when you're just farting around your hobby shop (and only when the temperature is pleasant or cool), than it is when you're actually working at a productivity level expected of laborers, with heavy stone, in an industrial workshop, no matter the temperature and humidity.

Try spending an hour in your shop constantly lugging heavy tools and wood around wearing that respirator on a humid 80 degree day, then you can be smug and waggle your finger at laborers for not protecting themselves.
yet another example of exploitation of people just trying to make a living. No regulations or minimal enforcement means companies/contractors do the job as cheaply as possible. Undercutting companies that actually care about the safety of their workers.
You've made the experience more tedious to create now. If we adhere to the article's advice, you work from the novice upwards. You create more and more freedom as you go up, you also have an easier time catching problems between levels this way.

In your proposal, we're expected to start from the top magically creating the best experience, and then jumping back down to novice users, and then scaling up back towards expert level to cover the gaps. It sounds quite jarring, and in practice it winds up leading to lackluster tutorials made by experts who overestimate everyone else's levels (see: "How to draw an owl: draw a circle, now draw the rest of the owl").

"Prosperity theology is a religious belief among some Charismatic Christians that financial blessing and physical well-being are always the will of God for them, and that faith, positive speech, and donations to religious causes will increase one's material wealth. Material and especially financial success is seen as a sign of divine favor."

I tried an older macbook for a while, and it was kinda frustrating on two fronts:

- reading is subpar

Having the ipad in portrait helped a lot for reading A4 size documents, where I'd be much more scrolling on the macbook.

The the form factor plays a lot when you're checking documents at an airport counter, reviewing your hotel reservation in a taxi, or looking at a map with others.

- I had to baby it a lot more

iPads and tablets in general can fit in cases and be lugged around without damage. The screen is also tough enough, where a macbook will be out of order if anything goes between the keyboard and the screen when you close it. That's fine at home, but that means it doesn't get out in any situation where it could be risky. In contrast I bring my tablet in the bathtub in a waterproof sleeve.

None of those are absolute deal breakers, I mean we used laptops anywhere we could for decades before tablet areived. But I definitely couldn't go back (disclaimer, I ended up with a Surface Pro. It's nice but as Panos is out of Microsoft now, I have no idea of the future of the lineup...)
Public transit and walkable streets are also incentivized. People naturally end up walking more outside of US.
Good point. One could minimize risk by looking up what AS# each of those is under [1][2] to get an idea if one is blocking a CDN at least I suppose. Time consuming but can be done.

I like AnyList for this. Keeps the groceries synced to your phone, sticks things in relatively sane categories, is fairly customizable, supports multiple real time editors (so my wife and I can both check stuff off as we add it around the store), has a web interface, and until Google decided to ruin it, had a nice smart speaker integration
True, but i feel the same way about laptops. For true productivity i need at least one big display, so will usually dock it with an external display, keyboard and mouse. Funny thing is that the modern iPads connected to an external display gives more or less the same experience as a laptop (as long as you're not programming...)
Still people would cut corners and not use the equipment

There is no proof that the Patent Office ever issued a secrecy order regarding her patent during WW2.
One small detail, but there are large numbers of 'small' details with her story that add up to Lamarr's frequency hopping patent not being remotely what is being claimed it is now (foundation or inspiration of many future inventions), nor having wide ranging effects.

Independently thinking up her scheme was very impressive in itself. She was a very talented person.

But most coverage of Lamarr is modern propaganda.
People like to complain about X's (née Twitter) format, but isn't it possible that X is a good medium _because_ of the restrictions put on the format? Each paragraph needs to make a salient point in 280 characters or less. Personally, I like the direct prose that results from this restriction.
I've got a 3M full-face respirator as well, and I agree. I've worn it with P100 filters for 8+ hours (minus breaks to drink water) doing hard work in uncomfortable conditions many times, and never found the respirator to be a burden.

They're a little pricey up front, but I figured it was cheap overall compared to the long-term costs of using something less effective. Having eye protection integrated as well is ideal, since it never fogs up.

Ask HN: What is the novel project that you have worked on or still working on?
Hi, Browsing the Show HN section mostly shows you projects where people made some microservice or a small tool. What is your project that you have worked on or still working on that can be world changing(according to you ofc) and how did you start doing it?

I am working on a Matrix simulation to host the world's first hosted Matrix, where you create your own universe, and populate it with a species that you have designed(only its characteristics), these species can be alike to humans. These agents will be trained to live with each other using deep RL, and then you can alter their lives however you like, maybe incarnate into their world. This project is still in development.
Before working on this I have created a simulation environment in which you can create your own AI agents and compete globally. you can check it out on https://aiplaygrounds.in
Where I live the company is responsible for safety, so if a worker decides to not use the safety equipment the company is liable, not the worker, since they must enforce their usage and check that the workers comply, and if not take measures (that include firing the worker if it refuses to use them).

Of course they made so because otherwise it would be convenient to the company provide the safety equipment and not enforce their usage, this way getting work done faster (and thus have more profit).
Yes I believe that would happen if it outcompetes “native” non-gmo bacteria.

Last I checked, Canada doesn't share a border with Mexico and some portion of these Latino "day workers" are illegal immigrants. Day workers are often paid under the table and when I have read other stories about them, they tend to include medical horror stories like "So, this guy cut 3 of his fingers off and they didn't even take him to the ER. They just returned him to the place where they had picked him up."

This is not exactly the best use case for arguing about Canada versus US healthcare policies.

I’m sure it’s not “good”, but from my limited understanding, it’s not equivalent to risks of quartz.

For what it's worth, I do feel like text editing is a big problem on Mobile. This is why I got myself a samsung note-line phone, the stylus greatly improves the text editing experience by basically being about as precise as a cursor and having a second button.

I still wish text editing was better, I like taking notes on things usually on Obsidian and the entire mobile text writing and more importantly editing is just not too great, but as the demo shows it can be improved a lot... :/
FYI if you use your country ccTLD instead of .com, the agency in charge will help you recover a domain even if you lose access to your registrar somehow. Just make sure that your whois is always accurate (whois is rarely public for cctld, no reason to put fake info).
> Fortunately it was a granite countertop and not quartz.

Granites are primarily composed of feldspar and quartz, which are both primarily composed of silica. Silica is the thing that causes silicosis, and when that granite was cut it was clouds of silica dust that covered your home.

You were no more safe in that granite dust than you would have been in quartz dust.
Sorry, I am very confused here. The comment I was responding to said:

> to make that bullshit even worse, Texas continued to use hypnosis induced testimony until 2021.

That is a sentiment with which I sympathize. But then...

> It makes me wonder when the last death penalty sentence for "shaken baby syndrome" was in Texas.

This I don't get. Shaken baby syndrome is a real thing, and it seems to me that if someone shakes a baby to death they are guilty of murder (or at least negligent homicide) and should be treated no differently than if their victim had been older. What does it have to do with hypnosis?
Thanks. It is unsurprising that most libraries punt on that. It seems that switching this state would easily dominate over the cost switching. IIRC on gcc the current exception is protected by a global mutex, at least until recently.

It is another reason for having this built into the language/standard library so that it can be implemented optimally.

It’s not the cyclist’s fault there is so separate bicycle path though.

Moreover, cyclists don’t cause congestion; motorists do. The congestion + noise + safety issues mean motorists are causing orders of magnitudes more negative externalities than any other transportation methods.

Shaking and child abuse are obviously real things. However, the way to diagnose shaken baby syndrome has been the subject of an ongoing scientific controversy for decades. With several colleagues, we have just published a textbook about this sensitive issue [1]. I've also written about how I, as a neuroscience researcher and software engineer, came into this diagnosis [2]. Finally, an introduction to this fascinating scientific topic can be found here, with many references for those interested [3].

From the pitch deck in their linked Google Drive it looks like the patent on the original strain expired and their whole idea is to create a slightly different strain they can patent again and sell for 20k/dose.

The problem with prison reform is politicans are incredibly afraid of being seen as "soft on crime". Paradoxically, this is especially true for democrats, because republicans are assumed to be tough on crime by default. Opposing prison reform is an easy way to seem tough on crime because convicts don't vote and most people aren't familiar with the prison system. Policing is more controversial, because a lot of people have had negative personal experiences with the police, and many are suspicious of government or authoritarianism.
Even with confounding and causal inference techniques, I will never be convinced by studies that aren't double-blind RCTs or studies that show a direct causal relationship.

The reason is that the set of human behavior is so fast and unfathomably complicated. Any two aspects of life are surely correlated by many factors that are influenced by lifestyle.

If they are a buyout target, there is a distinct possibility that there are going to preferred VC positions ahead of you to cover that could mean you get nothing. It is not uncommon to find common owners get nothing in a buyout.

Do you know anything about the positions ahead of you or what they might realistically expect/accept? I certainly had no clue the first time I was in this situation, and in the end my shares cost me money as come acquisition time they had 0 value.

My take as a hobby photographer (3 years).

I started doing photography as a means of staying sane during COVID lockdowns. It has been a great way to get me outside and moving (mostly in nature) when there was not much else to do.

Having said all that, I think the real value in photography is the doing itself. Yes, the profit generated by each photograph will go down to zero, but I think the real value for people will come from the experience of going out and making a photo.

My most memorable photograph is waking up at sunset in the middle of the mountains only to see the sun shine on a giant piece of rock. The photos I took are good, but you can just google it and you will see thousands of them.

The photos I took are just a reminder of me running out of the tent to stare at the beauty of nature. AI will never give me that. Not because it can’t generate a better photo, but because it can’t generate the pain on my back from a heavy backpack.

Photography thought me how to look for those odd moments at sunset/sunrise, weird cloud formations that make the rest of the experience that much more enjoyable.
