Re:Building a Brand Identity with Code on Saturday June 10, 2023 @06:41AM (#36269365)
I’m a fan of code aided design and really appreciate the effort and creativity in what you have done here. without an extensive background in geometry, I sometimes wonder how one could find neat concepts like the Lissajous curves that have a near direct applicability to graphic design ?

"Perfect De-Aging with Antoine De Caunes." They got that one backwards, Antoine is the younger version.
The three basic butters would be "doux" (unsalted), "demi-sel" and "salé" although the latter does seem to be harder to find in your run-of-the-mill markets and epiceries outside of Brittany.
Very fun to see this here ! I've been to Bordier's shop in St Malo, they do make lovely butter. If you know a bit about France and Brittany, you'll know that "les bretons" are very much fond of their butter. Check out how they make the famous kouign amann and if you get a chance, do have a taste if the quantities of sugar and butter don't put you off ;-)

You might find this helpful : https://bezier.method.ac/ although I wouldn’t spend too much time on it. Rather, you should try to find some YouTube videos that show you how to produce the general style of art you are specifically trying to create. You might find some more advanced tips and tricks other than the quite narrow drag and click techniques this tool will help you with.

Ask HN: Best email hosting and management solution for multiple domains?

What services and best practices would you advise for centrally managing multiple emails over multiple domains ? These would include a personal email domain and several business / side project domains. Each domain would obviously need several adresses.From what I’ve seen Gmail and Office 360 don’t seem quite suited to this scenario, since you tend to have to spread things out over several paid...

Re:Show HN: Open-source admin panel for Supabase on Thursday January 27, 2022 @11:51AM (#30102833)
Looks interesting ! I'm currently building a webapp on Supabase and have been considering Retool for admin purposes. What would this offer over something like Retool ? Do you offer specific features tailored to Supabase in order to make the integration easier or do you simply treat it as an ordinary PostgreSQL DB ?
Re:Liar Paradox on Saturday January 08, 2022 @10:41AM (#29852668)
You scenario is conceptually close to the Liar cycles explained in paragraph 1.3 of the article. But what makes the crux of the paradox is the referential « pointing » between each statement which is a feature lacking in your example.

There's a bit of a rabbit hole to go down about the question of ages in Genesis, touching on some neat topics such as Base-60 counting systems used by ancient Sumerian civilizations. Here's a nice start : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoPbZnRN8xQ

It seems like "Enhance!" is now an actual thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vxq9yj2pVWk
Interesting, after a quick search it seems you are right. Facebook tried to extend data sharing in Europe in 2017 and got fined on the grounds that it was contrary to the E.U. merger rules [0]. So they seem to have learned their lesson, for now at least.

Ask HN: Why did WhatsApp exempt Europe from it's enhanced data sharing?

As per : https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-55573149 and https://faq.whatsapp.com/general/security-and-privacy/how-we-work-with-the-facebook-companiesEurope and the UK seem to be exempt from the changes.
