The regulation says nothing about a cookie banner. Instead, it says companies cannot track you unless you give consent. If you don't like cookie banners, which are indeed really annoying, you should be turning your ire to the companies

As a consumer, the USB-C mandate is amazing and I wish it had been given as soon as USB-C became available.

Diablo 2 was actually programmed to run at 25 fps. Diablo 2: Resurrected allows you to switch between the new 4k60fps graphics and the original - it's fascinating to see the difference.

Rust is actually really fun to work with. Don't let random naysayers on hn convince you otherwise, try it for a month or three and form your own opinion. There is something magical about wri5ing code that is as fast as C++ but with a f

I don't know why you are being downvoted, but in my experience this is exactly right. The pain of adding third party C++ dependencies is undeniable, especially in a cross-platform manner. I've had the displeasure of maintaining th

Humans hallucinate information and often get things wrong in ways that have no grounding in auditable facts either. The fact that a textbox can do so many diverse tasks _well_, should give everyone pause. Here's a few things it was abl

The FDA does not accept any studies conducted overseas as clinical evidence. They request studies to contain at least 50% US citizens and be analyzed by US certified physicians. Now whether that leads to better outcomes or is just a protect

Other “distinguished” people, obviously. Which should make the problems of any such system obvious: it inevitably becomes yet another “in club” for people with connections and power.

The green party who was not in government and could not actually enact any legislation? No, it is not the green party who is at fault. This falls fully on the shoulders CDU who was in power for 16 years.

This has already happened, to a large extent. Search for most any topic on google, e.g. recipes, and the first two pages will be chock-full of AI-generated copy.

You are seeing the effects of the 120Hz screen: 8.3ms of display latency vs 16.6ms on a 60Hz screen. Yes, it's noticeable.

That's a different point though: the fact that it tastes different does not mean it is harmful to consume (which is the point I was trying to make).

Scientist yes, in the same way that anyone who follows the scientific method can be a scientist. Professor however, no, except as a honorary title. I know exactly zero tenured professors who do not have a PhD.

I don't think there's any objective measure by which software has not become more complex over time. The uefi bootloader contains more code and complexity than your average 90s OS. Your smartphone is running at least two, possibly

That's where testing comes in, no? Entering the programming field then becomes an iterative loop of you instructing an AI to generate code, generate tests and iterate / re-adjust until it does what you want. "You" as in

Yes, this one is particularly weird. How can a grid of unicode characters take 500-1000ms to display on a machine with an m1, 16GB of memory and a blazing fast NVME disk?

That is not actually the case, a great many languages define the order of operations in a deterministic manner. There is no intrinsic reason why a[i] = i++ has to result in undefined behavior.

It appears that you feel strongly about this and that is ok. I would only ask you to please be kind to people who do not share your experiences, social skills or background, e.g. introverts, people suffering from social anxiety, people who
