But there’s nothing that stops countries from being within 5% of each other at top of that ranking. The main point is the large difference between the countries.

Are you sure it’s not also because the 2016 laptop is more performant?

Wow, just incredible. I too turned off my adblocker just to see this. Is this really how the vast majority of people browse the internet without an adblocker?! How do they take it? It's like letting someone slap your face, repeatedly

It's possible you're talking about different things. When robbery was mentioned asenna, I was imagining an empty house being robbed.

Perhaps only remote hacking where you are not physically in the same location as what you are hacking (or have not caused any physical alterations). This kind of "hacking" should be entirely stoppable and entirely non-violent. S

One of the nice things about projectors is they are not smart (for the most part, as far as I know). How long will that last I wonder? I am especially sceptical of internet-connected smart devices, I wonder how long until products start hav

For all the negative comments about the presentation, which I might normally agree with, I liked this format this time. It took a while to load (thank you multi-threading). I got through it because I treated it like an interactive video wit

That’s not very convenient. I like another suggestion in this thread: standardised components. Have shops hand out reusable metal cutlery rather than disposable plastic cutlery with a deposit scheme. You pay a few quid for the cutlery, but

My plus addressing with gmail is strictly a whitelist. Anything sent without a plus address is immediately deleted with an automatic filter. The issue I encounter is services that (incorrectly) treat a plus address email as invalid, prevent

I’m sure Spotify would rather everyone that isn’t going to pay use their free product than move to competitor X.

I've been having the same thoughts recently, to the extent where I've wanted to post "Ask HN: How do you search for independent bloggers and forum discussions?". I may as well throw that out here now, how do I find indiv

I think he went into quite a bit of detail from being quicker (less actions) to being more discoverable.

I suspect a huge amount of the value of it is because it is personal , I.e. based heavily on his past experience. It means he is always just refreshing his memory rather than looking at something new. It’s why my Programmer’s Compendium [0

Thanks for this solution! I had just assumed it would be too difficult to find elsewhere :/

I’ve tried several times, but th page is just unreadable for me! I like to click the page and highlight words as I read. However, the interactive side bar moves the page and kills your (my) ability to read. So despite being signed up for th

I was curious about TLS1.3’s attempt to encrypt SNI, and found that it is genuinely a hard problem. The best solution seemed to be to use a proxy/fronting service, but that isn’t the ideal solution.

Let’s not start giving false choices. I simply don’t believe your assertion that the choice is between free services or paying a monthly fee.

It would be a one-time auto-format just like the one-time auto-format that black will do for the rest of the project. Any newly auto-generated files can be formatted before they are committed. So I don't see it actually adding to the h

I looked into this and the user experience involved is very poor, in particular the browser interfaces. It sounds like a chicken-and-egg problem. On top of this, is the clear text sending of the client certificate as another poster mentione

The post may be right, or may be wrong, but I couldn’t get past how extremely divisive and polarising it was. It deliberately fosters an “us vs them” attitude and leaves no room for middle ground. It certainly wasn’t written to generate hea

No, there is a difference between what should do, what they can do and what they are doing. I would interpret the OP as saying they can know, if they wanted to. But that doesn’t really have much to do with Zuckerberg denying knowledge.

I do think that there is a distinct difference between sounds that you can hear and sounds that you can't (where the line is is blurred between people, and even loudness@frequency for a person, of course). When you give permission to a

This is a great way of thinking about a VPN, and how I describe it myself. If you have limited options on your choice of ISP, then a VPN allows you to expand your choices (excluding speed, latency, usage caps).

If thats true it’s because of the limitations of IPv4 more than anything else. With a single $5/month machine from Linode you have a /64 IPv6 subnet, that is 2^64 IP addresses just for that one machine.

Instead of blacklisting the +spam@gmail.com email, you could whitelist emails like +netflix@gmail.com. You can create a filter so that if it doesn't match the whitelist - including stripping the plus - then it will be automatically bin
