That must be some good beer!

More likely at that price it's not good, it's just in a sports arena.

You haven't been to <city>

Worse than private email.

Same experience. “No feed found.” I chuckled at the irony and closed the tab.

How is this possible? Do they test sending to a few random addresses?


It’s some consumer loyalty scheme for a chain retailer? Depressingly distant from the “bicycle for the mind” I’d dreamed of.


Just plain bicycles, actually.


> not that impressive

Until you see the scale bar


They're printing 12 μm features (fig 4h). For high speed mass production of more or less arbitrary geometry with no need to retool it's seriously impressive.


Going off some Photoshop dimensionating with the scale bar, that Benchy is about w 6mm x h 5mm[0] which, if I'm reading [1] correctly, is just about 100x smaller than the canonical Benchy. Impressive that you can recognise it at all, I'd say.

[0] Strictly more like 5.5mm x 4.5mm but you get the idea.

But can they print a full-size benchy?


From the looks of the size of the things they have printed, "no?"[0]

Although if they could, it would be fantastic.

[0] Unless they print it in a whole bunch of parts you self-assemble, I guess.


I just keep a custom stylesheet that annotates usernames with various emoji. Most of the time I update it as I read, but occasionally I’ll peruse the hidden comments to note e.g. uncharitable participation and revealed bigotry.


> this is a compatibility character provided for roundtrip compatibility with legacy encodings. […] The Unicode standard explicitly discourages the use of this character

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius#Unicode_character)


I'm sort of buying and not buying this interpretation. Celsius is discussed under section "Unit symbols" in the PDF (page 8-9 of the linked Chapter 22), where the quoted "it is better" sentence appears...

...then immediately afterwards a new section named "Compatibility" starts where the use of code points that are composites of several letters, e.g. ℡ and ℻ are indeed discouraged, suggesting they be spelled out in full as TEL and FAX instead.

Do you feel ℃ falls into a continuation/overlap between these two sections?


And:

  in the hour since this has been posted the developer has:
  
    - Made the /r/huntarr subreddit private
    - Wiped and deleted their Reddit account
    - Deleted the GitHub repo for Huntarr
