If motor is a problem, why don't they make manual rollable by hand?

This is Google's fault.

They made Search worse so people have to resort to AI chatbots.

Your home page consumes 35% of my GPU, that's crazy. Maybe tone down the background animation a bit?

I've always thought the name EdgeDB is odd since it's not an actual database software and more of a Prisma competitor.

You could say the same thing about a refined fuel tanker.

Japan has plenty of homeless people but you don't see them because they're staying in cybercafés.

Inflation were caused by mass factories shutdown in China and South East Asia. When they reopen they got so many orders that they simply increase their prices.

I wish some of the HN crowd can take a crack at building an affordable hybrid inverter with good software. Fronius/Ecoflow/Anker solutions are too damn expensive.

Currently the cheap hybrid inverter on the market usually comes with crappy monitoring software.

patatero — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 02:18:16 +0000

Shopify shops always have /collections, /products, and /pages in their URL. If you have a regular Shopify site, you're not allowed to change them. I don't know if Shopify Plus clients can change them.

Shopify sites also have shop-name.com/products.json which has URLs that point to cdn.shopify.com

Based on the tweet it sounds like the problem stems from Nobel Prize only allowing a maximum of 3 names on a paper.

I've used this app for a few months last year and the UI is simply awful.
