tagersenim··on Mapping the University of Chicago's 135-year expansion into Hyde Park and beyond
What a beautiful webpage! I especially like all the quotes that go with the different expansion phases.
tagersenim··on Crowds gather in Dublin for fake Halloween parade posted on social media
Well, with this turnout there is a real parade anyway!
tagersenim··on Answering Legal Questions with LLMs
My number one request is still: "please rewrite this legal answer in simple language with short sentences." For this, it is amazing (as long as I proofread the result). For actual answers, eh...
tagersenim··on Answering Legal Questions with LLMs
Many laws, especially GDPR, can only be interpreted in conjunction with a lot of guidelines (WP29 for example), interpretations by the local Data Protection Authority, decisions by local and European courts, etc.

Given all of this information, I think the bot will be able to formulate and answer. However, the bot first needs to know what information is needed.

If a lawyer has to feed the bot certain specific parts of all of these documents, they might as well write the answer down themselves.

tagersenim··on LastPass edits robots.txt to make support articles difficult to find
From the article:

  All of today's support bulletins are not easy to find, with none of them listed in search engines, as the company added <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> HTML tags to the document to prevent them from being indexed by search engines.

The url is surely, given the topic, one of the better ones I've ever seen.
tagersenim··on Show HN: Zelda Breath of The Wild Street View
In addition to this being a cool project, I love the way the loading screens work. When I click on ‘click to load this panorama’ (which showed almost immediately), I expect that loading takes a while. Thereafter, you are kept updated on the loading progress, after which the panorama immediately loads. In this manner, it is no problem to wait a few seconds. Much better than just looking at a ‘loading…’ screen.
tagersenim··on Ask HN: Contractors, what is your hourly rate?
You’re underselling it. You’ll get a message saying:

“OK”

THE CONTENT OF THIS EMAIL IS CONFIDENTIAL AND INTENDED FOR THE RECIPIENT SPECIFIED IN MESSAGE ONLY. IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN…

tagersenim··on Ask HN: Contractors, what is your hourly rate?
Oh, to be able to charge by the hour would be such bliss as a lawyer. We charge by 0,1 hours: every 6 minutes need to be accounted for.
tagersenim··on London’s Lost Ringways
I do not like the way the text scroll just ‘jumps’ ahead when scrolling down after the header picture. The title has disappeared above your screen before you have time to read it. It reminds me of the Apple product pages, whereby your scroll is constantly hijacked by spinning pictures of laptops opening and closing.
tagersenim··on Show HN: I made a web game called Almost Pong
This is awesome! I did however accidentally click on the links below the game, ruining my streak

Pongy Flap
tagersenim··on Tell HN: Airbnb just stole me 5 minutes of my time adding dices
I believe Binance has the same thing. This to measure my human imperfect way of sliding the puzzle piece, I suppose.
tagersenim··on Ask HN: What was better in the past in tech?
Do you think that the current trend to make things look ‘pretty’ has its causes in the fact that a certain product must appeal to a larger audience?
tagersenim··on Ask HN: What was better in the past in tech?
I agree with you statement. But I do have a - genuine, absolutely not sarcastic - question. As products and services were not meant for the purposes you mentioned, how was money made? Did everything have a price upfront and was nothing ‘free’?
tagersenim··on macOS extensions are moving away from the kernel
Maybe not the point here, but what a beautiful way to style the website, with a drop-caps (the big initial letter, I had to look it up). It strikes a middle ground between the old-timey drop-caps and the 'new' web.
