I really find this amazing, gives you the feeling that learning the ideograms would be enough to get the gist of most texts. Quite bright yet simple hack.

I wish HN would feature more projects like this one instead of wtv is currently on the first page.


TY!!

Yea this actually has been going viral when I posted it on Instagram. Maybe I'll need to post this on HN in a different time or wait for someone else to organically post it :)


Does not work on FF, iOS : the translation is drawn with the same font.

oops, I recently switched the storage to Git LFS and the deploy workflow didn't download the fonts

the same goes for Brave, ios

  > So what was valued? ...
None of that was valued much compared to lineage, though.

Serviceability by owner is less and less important as fewer and fewer owners actually do maintenance themselves, though.

Even if 100% of owners choose to pay someone else to do it, they are still benefiting from the user-serviceable standard.

First, anything serviceable by the owner is also accessible to a local garage or independent repair shop. That means a competitive market for those owners, rather that being stuck paying extra to a local monopoly or to a rent-seeking manufacturer.

Second, it makes long-term repairability of the product much easier, things don't just suddenly become irreparable because the manufacturer closed down their "unlock codes for trusted affiliates" site. Their asset retains more of its value.

There are things which provide value even when nobody uses them.


Option 1: "I am so much smarter than these stupid engineers"

Option 2: "Certainly, I do not understand the various trade offs that led to this design"

I wished at least in software tech circles there would be more of option 2 kind of thinking.


Option 3: "Engineers have discussed this at length and all agree that the only justifications for this design are based in extremely short-term thinking."

I've been not betting on x86 in the long term since the PowerPC was announced ;)

It's sad to admit, but being a chef étoilé does not make it easier to find a job in the fast food industry. It can even be detrimental.


Am I the only one to believe that they used Lego, a company strongly associated with Denmark, to prime Europeans into associating Iran with Greenland?


The confusion comes from the fact that the regime which is very clearly better for its own people is also the one which actions are clearly awful for the rest of the world (if only because it has vastly larger means).


So one side is evil while the other side is just wrong ?

Like after 300k deaths in Irak when the administration said "sorry we have been misled by wrong information about the WMD"? They made a mistake, yet Iraqis were evil.
