That's shortsighted. Humanity will run off the proverbial cliff if that sentiment stays. Sure, you might not suffer now, but at this point, probably your kids and/or grandkids will. If you don't have nor want kids, then you&#

Apple users will defend its behavior to the bitter. No matter what you post about Apple, it will either be excused or praised. Does anybody know of a firefox addon or monkeyscript to filter articles on Hackernews? At this point I just want

By now probably most people are aware of these facts to some degree (not with exact numbers but an inkling). The problem is what to do with that information. So, a question to the rest of HN what are you doing to reduce wealth and income in

Everything is open-source. They block what they want and you can fork it or recompile it. You don't have that same liberty with Google, the Apple Store, Amazon, Samsung, etc. On the store that you host you can also choose to enforce wh

That wouldn't surprise me. If we couldn't tell them apart. There must also be limits to perception or resolution. Are our eyes even able to tell the difference between FHD, 2K and 4K on a 15" screen? I tested FHD vs 4K on a 3

I remember reading or hearing somewhere: we have some of our smartest people working on the best way to sell ads to people. On an unrelated note, I like the style of the blog: no 3 column bullshit. I can resize the screen however I want to

Thanks for the response. That does sound pretty much like what I would like to do. Have you by any chance open-sourced your project? I'm new to rust, but I'll check out Rocket. Cheers

It would minimize the python surface required to be covered with type-hints and mypy. If possible, one could simply point django to the modules generated from rust. I'll give it a shot tonight and see how it goes. Now I'm curious.

We can but we don't. Our biological drive, coupled with our lack of volition to reason about it, is to reproduce. Most people don't care if pumping out a unit is the worst thing contribution to the planet's environment, they&

They can host their own matrix server... It's not that hard. Then they won't have to whine about deplatforming. When will they learn? Companies aren't your friends: the bottom line is. If they wanted to have an anonymous serv

I know people like harking on about phone number or email requirements, but how am I supposed to find my friends? Do I have to send them a message over Signal to tell them the name I picked on another app?

I'm pretty in the dark here since I don't have a google account, but what are these private APIs they're talking about? Is Google Sync the equivalent of Firefox Sync? If that doesn't work, but the actual browsing works,

You're taking one single phrase out of context and getting bent out of shape. Just assume the people you're writing to aren't all idiots. If you really think OP meant what you thought, ask them.

Steve Jobs is rolling in his grave. After working so hard to make repairing Apple devices a pain... and all that work is being undone. Do these laws take everything repairable into consideration? Last I read, farmers were getting bent over
