I use both and YouTube Short produces mostly just garbage for me. AI voice videos that will get your attention, but has little content. TikTok's algorithm on the other hand is much better and provides quality, half-long-form content.
Maybe you're thinking about Nord Stream
Re:See this page fetch itself, byte by byte, over TLS on Wednesday May 10, 2023 @07:56AM (#35886110)
You can definitely just require TLS 1.3 with no backwards compatibility.
As for the cost, I agree. Just charge me more on the room itself. But in EU and many other countries, you are responsible for knowing who does what through your network.

As for the user experience, why not just give you a personal generated password when you check in? Then they have the info they need, and you just need to enter the password. Both iOS and Android support auto filling SSID and password through a QR-code and NFC, so that's the best solution I think.

Re:iOS Ships Dvorak, Finally on Monday October 10, 2022 @09:09AM (#33150893)
But not Colemak. macOS has supported both Colemak and Dvorak, and I find it infuriating that they not only haven't supported it on iOS yet, but even more infuriating that they only added Dvorak.

I can only be thankful that Colemak is supported on external keyboards on iPadOS, even though the virtual keyboard doesn't support it.

Not saying that the website shouldn't support it, but do you really need to fullscreen your browser with an ultra wide monitor?
Re:Textile Markup Language on Wednesday February 23, 2022 @09:00AM (#30440986)
No that is how the system works today. I would like, and have always wanted a way to disambiguate without creating a new title. There should be some sort of visual indicator that we are going up to the parent level without creating a sibling to the parent.

  title: ships
  p: ships travel on water
  p: they are like cars but on water
      title: motors
      p: ships have motors
      p: spin around
      p: very powerful
  p: ships can be used for many things
      title: fishing
      p: fish are in water, so the incentives are super-aligned
Re:Textile Markup Language on Wednesday February 23, 2022 @06:04AM (#30439865)
Yes, this has also been something I've missed from mostly all markup languages, but the renderer also has to make a distinction between paragraphs inside and outside of a section. To better illustrate:

  @section {
      @title: This is my section title
  
      Text, paragraph, etc.
  
      @section {
   
          @title: Subsection Title
  
          Text, text, text.
  
      }
      
      More text that belongs to the parent section. But how will the reader know that? Indentation? Blocks with background color maybe?
  }
No desktop app? That's a dealbreaker.
Re:Ask HN: How do I learn how to tell a good story? on Wednesday November 24, 2021 @10:27AM (#29330868)
I have no expertice in this, but; Watch stand-up comedy and observe. They are masters at pacing and story arcing. Observe how they bring the energy up and down. They start off with a premise that needs resolution, so that under the whole bit, the audience has the resolution on their mind, and much of the interest in the bit lies in the interest in the resolution. The resolution cannot be uncovered unless a new premise is brought forward or the story is finished.

Nah, that is because of bad planning.
I'm Norwegian and I realised half way through that I could just read it in the original language.
Ah, that's nice.
