I have sent an email to the contacts listed in the press release regarding this. Let's see what they say.

I believe you are correct. They have made a mistake in the report. Hajipur is a small town near Patna, Bihar which is much bigger than it is.

This is the response I received.

>Thanks for your email. In our online FAQ for the DEGURBA methodology (https://population.un.org/wup/faqs), you'll see:

Does DEGURBA combine too many cities into a single conurbation?

In countries where population data were only available at relatively coarse resolution and densities are generally high, these estimates may include conurbation that are too large. For example, the DEGURBA-defined city that includes Hajipur in India appears to aggregate multiple distinct cities and towns. Using finer grained population data or even better a population grid based on a geo-coded census may lead to this conurbation shrinking and turning into a multitude of individual cities and towns.

The following online portal provides you more details: https://human-settlement.emergency.copernicus.eu/raster.php - Based on this methodology, Hajipur corresponds to the whole red urban centre combining multiple contiguous urban units. If you zoom on the interactive map you'll see the name of smaller urban places included. For the most recent periods, the initial units of analysis for the population grid were the 5,967 Sub-districts/Tehsils/Cercles of the 2011 census of India projected using the 2001-2011 censuses. Population distribution is downscaled using estimates of building volume from the GHSL, which you can see here: https://human-settlement.emergency.copernicus.eu/visualisati...

You can see that Patna is the larger/closest urban area, but it is not physically connected to the rest of the urban area due to the river in between. SO Patna appears as distinct urban area.

They will have to support auth if they are adding support for connecting with remote host. It's not difficult but it's not as trivial as you suggested.

Ollama server already supports authentication, and URLs already have a place for credentials.

depends on your definition of touch.

(57-39)/39 ~= 46

I think they meant 50% increase from the 39% .

Ah! It was early, my brain wasn’t working. I appreciate the restraint the HN community exercised in not mocking me, hahaha

A very good list. You should add https://github.com/nchudleigh/vimac to the list. It works similar to shortcat but I found Vimac to be more performant and reliable.

I used to use vimac (https://github.com/nchudleigh/vimac) when I had macbook. I was pretty happy with it. I liked its interface. Its interface was inspired by Vimium extension on browser.

I think they meant the Chromium based browsers but they should have specified it for clarity.

AFAICR, You don't have to reboot the machine. You can press `Shift+F10` again and run `ipconfig \release`. I could be wrong.

There are also some email ids (e.g. no@email.net ) in the sign up fields which allows you to create local accounts.

Not that these workarounds excuse all this user hostile behavior.

There are browser extensions which make it easier to debug grapgql. A new pane is added to the browser debug panel. Last I used them more than two years ago, it was still not as good as the built-in network tab for rest queries. Still better than the default for the graphql queries.

An interesting use-case could be localized haptic feedback on the screen. You could rotate a knob or push a button on the screen and get a localized sound and haptic feedback from the item on the screen.

You may even add haptic texture on the screen. close your eyes and scan the screen with your finger. It would feel like a series of mechanical switches and knobs. It would be useful for people who don't like using only the screen in their car because of lack of haptic feedback.
