Thanks for going through the work of testing this. Better to have the actual results for a joke than to joke about theories :)

The GR86/BRZ added those in 2022+ but didn’t offer a way to control loudness, using a small board attached to both the canbus and the audio system. It is, in online enthusiast communities, disliked for providing ‘fake’ horsepower and f

The defenses of the person pentesting the court system have the same sort of energy, for theoretical example, hacking in-flight WiFi for the lulz and then claiming to have done the airline a favor by exposing their weaknesses for repair.

Okay, so, to parse this — you have a highly performant http/1 app using a fresh connection setup/teardown at 100ms per cycle? Have you tested that same app over http/3 with tuning to reuse the underlying channel, and if so, w

Sure, that’s fine too. Whatever makes more sense than the current title is an improvement, and I can’t judge what’s best for this audience.

Email the mods to have the title edited, hn@ycombinator.com; it’s a worthwhile change here. “in 2^[0.6039n+o(n)] time” could be a better edit than the paper’s provided title, though I selected [] rather than {} for human use. I defer to exp

15px suggests that using an ICO file, horrifying as that sounds, might be a very successful solution here. Yes, I know PNG and GIF would also work, but if ICO format is still support for favicons at multiple resolutions with clean scaling,

If I ever curate again it will certainly not be for the public . That led to PageRank which kickstarted this whole dystopian nightmare that Google has been planning since as early as 2003 . No thank you.

I can definitely attest to this as well. I transitioned during the pandemic and one of my coworkers, who hadn't seen me below the face for three years, did a physical actual double-take after saying hello to the cute stranger as they w
