I dont understand why you consider this to be a different phenomena than a bubble. Its still a bubble, people are still doing it for financial gain. Its just marketed as "doing this will screw hedge fund managers" to generate more

Yeah it opens up options, but the likelihood of a turn around is still low IMO. Its the same decision makers as before.

I think this is more like beanie babies all over again. Except now that its easier to trade its happening in stocks. Populism of a companies stock doesnt really change the performance of that company. GME will implode eventually and the new

As usual on HN, Apple is always given the benefit of the doubt, where any article is interpreted in the strongest possible way in favour of Apple. Compare this to any article about Google, where anything they do is interpreted in the worst

Autotools and the configure script come from a history of distributing software purely as source code instead of binaries. From the early GNU days. https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Managing-R...

Surely it is possible to configure a custom search engine in Brave. I would be amazed if the list was hard coded.

Its difficult to match the origibal macro, but dead easy to match into the shell script. If youre just trying to get something to build as a user, its actually quite easy to read the configure script and see why its failing. The accompanie

Sure but does a 23% malware rate justify further restricting side loading? Seems like snake oil security, rather than addressing the bigger problem of malware through the official channels.

I wonder what the actual numbers are on malware installed via side-loading and malware installed from the play store. There is no shortage of sketchy apps on the play store. Through my personal bias I would imagine that most people side-loa

Most of the OS level resolvers just forward to the resolver provided via DHCP. Which is fine for enterprise, but for home users means using the ISPs resolver, which can track users and has a history of injecting ads on failed resolutions.
