• Danish-English Dictionary Recommended ?

  Hej! I am a newbie on Danish. Currently I am seeking a Danish-English dictionary for looking up words during my study. It would be better if the dictionary could be read by goldendict. Source: about 2 years ago

• Luxembourgish online dictionary (LOD) now available for Mac

  I'm working on it. But it seems that windows has no standard way to do this, so it will require the installation of a 3rd party software like "Golden Dict" http://goldendict.org/. Source: almost 3 years ago

• What are the alternatives to Kiwix?

  We sometimes hear from alternatives to Kiwix, but more often than not they completely fly under our radar and there's plenty of good learnings we miss. I know of r/xowa for instance (though the main dev seems to have moved on and not worked on their code since March), and someone recently flagged GoldenDict for Wiktionary files on our Github repo. Livio's android dictionary is also a really great product. Source: over 3 years ago

• Where to find Stardict dictionaries?

  Use http://goldendict.org/ with some other format than stardict, as it doesn't support morphology. Also add a French hunspell dictionary for morphology. Source: over 3 years ago

• Don't watermark your legal PDFs with purple dragons in suits

  The coked-up AI cartoon dragon attorney. His website, which also features the purple dragon and a bunch of busted links in the footer, says that the firm "integrates AI to lower the cost of legal services." Hopefully this lawyer is making sure this AI isn't making up the cases it's citing, which is a continuing problem: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ai+make+up+legal+cases. - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  That is not a definitive result. Repairing older cars to meet minimum standards is possible. They also could introduce things gradually and grandfather older vehicles into the previous lack of standards, which is what NY did.

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  It does make sense. See the 85th percentile speed: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=85th+percentile+speed Setting the limit at the 85th percentile and having most drivers drive at it creates uniformity of speed, which is known to increase safety. - Source: Hacker News / 27 days ago

• Mesmerizing Interlocking Geometric Patterns Produced with Japanese Woodworking

  Reminds me of Islamic Mashrabiya screens. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Mashrabiya&ia=images&iax=images Historically, the screens were quite simple, with more complex patterns rendered in ceramic tilings (symmetry groups, colorings, knots and intertwinings). Now there are good modern screens with more innovative patterns, made with computer-controlled laser cutters. In a quick search for Kumiko examples, I very... - Source: Hacker News / 27 days ago

• NSF director to resign amid grant terminations, job cuts, and controversy

  Https://archive.org/details/resignationinpro00weis From an Amazon review comment: "This book offers an insightful analysis into the history and norms involved in the tradition of resignation in the U.S. And the U.K. Why do the British tend to resign loudly in protest and Americans resign “to spend more time with family” while praising their president? How do these norms benefit and harm their respective systems?... - Source: Hacker News / 30 days ago
