Even with AI models that can identify that there are birds in the picture. Having it decide with accuracy that the picture is of a bird is still a hard problem.

It's a nonsensical statement to us programmers too.

I know this doesn't answer the question but I want to offer some advice instead.

In my opinion just don't. If the company want you to have access to emails on the go then they should give you a company phone. If they don't, why are you trying to? Don't put work things on your personal phone.

There is a more performant C++ implementation but it's been a long while since I've used either it or the java implementation. Worth checking out.

Any specific infringement material (by which I mean media) would only be on the user's home server. Links to content aren't what is actionable for a DMCA notice as far as I'm aware. And the DMCA does not require platforms to actively monitor or remove potentially infringing content, only to follow the takedown procedure when sent an appropriate notification. If they follow that then they are protected from liability. That's US law but IIRC the implementations in most of the rest of the world are similar if not the same. And here's the rub: even without those communities, LW will still need to have a DMCA agent and take action against content when notified because people can and will upload infringing media here on other communities.

They're not exposing themselves to additional risk by having the piracy communities unblocked. People can and will discuss piracy, in abstract terms at the very least, all over the place. And discussion of copyright infringement is not copyright infringement anyway. Any liability and risk they do hold they will still have to worry about now regardless.

Generally yes, for keyboards without a number row we will tend to use some combination of those kinds of tricks. In the past I've had numbers on the homerow under an fn key (note that said fn key is on a thumb key so easier to press than the standard location for fn keys on regular keyboards). Currently I have a number row as vertical combos on my Sweep (34 key low profile split). So q+a = 1, w+s = 2, and so on. As well as a numpad on one half under a fn key (we call these layers). So for long strings of numbers I use the numpad layer, for short ones I use my "virtual number row".

However, I got here gradually, my first split was a keebio Iris (which has a number row) and have gone progressively in the direction of smaller ones. There are a good number of numrow inclusive splits out there. Some examples:

  • ergodox
  • moonlander
  • dygma raise
  • Lily58
  • Sofle
  • Iris

Splitkb.com is due to release the Elora (Kyria, but with a number row) Any Day Now™️

On foot pedals, I have a stack of them but haven't got around to making use of them in any projects yet. Others have

Does your lemmy instance have a character limit?

I think this is related to the recent security vulnerability that affected, notably, lemmy.world. Even unaffected instances mostly decided to invalidate existing user sessions just to be sure and this required resetting Jerboa and some other apps that presumably hold onto a cached version of your auth token even if you remove the account and re-add it or something. So it was necessary to clear the app cache and storage to reset it and add accounts again.

you can simply mutate the url from https://other.instance/c/community to https://your.instance/c/community@other.instace but yeah, it's a pain. It's a good opportunity for a simple browser extension or script that does some URL rewriting.

I found that on mobile, Jerboa has some instance url associations for major instances and that means that links can open in that, where you're logged in to your account on your home instance, and it handles it. but it's been hit-and-miss for me as to whether it'll open in the app or continue in mobile browser.

I really love mine. It's just a great little iron and really affordable. Highly recommend.

No, it is a separate thing but heavily inspired by the ts100 and uses the same tips. More like an open-source clone rather than a "rebrand".

If you want to put a controller on the underside of a keyboard, like the promicro, you can do it with just a standard MX or choc footprint by straddling the switch footprint. But if you swap the switch footprint with a kailh hotswap socket footprint the pads overlap with the promicro's through holes. So to keep the promicro under the switches you'd need to rotate it or remove some of the pins from the footprint, giving you less IO. This is designed to be able to be placed over the hotswap footprint.

A good place to start is our wiki, you'll find there a small list of some popular keyboards as well as links to other databases of keyboards what hopefully will help you. some obvious ones: Corne (crkbd), Kyria, Iris, Lily58, Sofle, Sweep.

If you search, the open-source ones linked generally are being sold as kits in a few places, so have a look around. you can see a list of vendors in our wiki too, it may not be exhaustive but it's pretty comprehensive.

Yeah, just use a char for card and test

if(card < '7') count++;
else count--;

Or something, don't mix types.

UK law makers won’t be able to enforce their law even if it’s passed.

that said, we should also always remember that unenforceable law is law that can and will be selectively applied. Something they can whip out against people when they don't have anything else.

Ergos can be actually relatively cheap. That's why I've spent god-knows how much and have like 30 of them.

Let's not get in the habit of posting promotional posts every day. I'm not sure what the limit should be but twice in as many days already feels too frequent. I'll leave this up today but I'll remove any more from you that come in the next 7 days. Once or twice per week seems a reasonable frequency as a starting place.

I would love an app that like, subdivides my screen into a grid that I can use to just automatically jump to a place with just my keyboard, that would be perfect.

I've not use it but this seems to support what you want. It's a bit jank looking but seems to have the desired features.
