Napoleon vytáhl do Ruska se 685 tisíci vojáky. Probili se až do Moskvy, pak ale museli zpátky. Grand Armée zřejmě přišla během tažení o téměř 400 tisíc vojáků, z nichž podstatná část nepadla v boji. Měla je na svědomí zima, hlad a v neposlední řadě také nemoci. Který patogen za to byl zodpovědný? http://www.osel.cz/14190-vypoved-dna-co-zabilo-napoleonovu-grande-armee-pri-ustupu-z-ruska.html

Most site blockers work by blacklisting distractions. That never worked for me, the internet is too big, and there’s always something new to waste time on.
I wanted the opposite: allowlist‑only browsing. Block everything by default, and explicitly allow only what I need.
So I built Sinkzone: a local DNS forwarder with two modes:
Monitor mode: lets all traffic through, but logs every domain so you can decide what to allow.
Focus mode: only allowlisted domains resolve; everything else

CSS has “logical properties” which have the unique ability to follow the flow of language. You might be working on an website in English, which is left-to-right and top-to-bottom, but other languages might flip either or both of those. In English, we know what margin-right does, but can quickly become the wrong choice if the direction of a web page is flipped, perhaps during translation. https://webdesignernews.com/should-we-never-use-non-logical-properties/

Hi HN! I've been working on BookWith, an open-source e-book reader that integrates AI as your reading companion.
The problem: Traditional e-readers are passive. When you encounter something unclear, you have to context-switch to search for it. Your highlights and notes remain isolated, and you can't easily connect ideas across different books.
My solution: BookWith embeds an AI that maintains full context of what you're reading. It features:
