Firefox and Brave are both profoundly bad on iOS. Scrolling is a nightmare.

Why would you use Brave when for many years it wouid surreptitiously install a VPN service on your Windows machine. The Brave devs took more than a year to even address it, let alone remove it. More ideologically, Google and Chromium are aw

Why would somebody click a link to GitHub and then not read the text that very obviously pertains to the title of the submission they clicked on? Also saying that GitHub has unknown UX patterns made me lol.

Flickr wasn't the first, and it sure wasn't great. It was just popular. The MySpace of image hosting would be apt, down to how awful using the website was. It was atrocious.

Not that you care, but for others that might, the nuclear fuel offer was reported by the NYT and other outlets, including The Economist, that can't in any way be accused of pandering to the Trump admin. https://www.nytimes.c

Did you miss the part where Iran spent the past 50 years promising to develop nuclear weapons and then use them on both Israel and America, or do just choose to conveniently ignore that when you go on rants like this? In one of the last rou

I mean, I’d rather foreigners who demonstrate and cause civil unrest not visit my country - seems like a lot less trouble for everybody that way. When in Rome.

The US Constitution limits the legislature's ability to pass laws restricting speech. The Executive revoking a noncitizen's student visa does not breach that Constitutional protection.

I find the idea of a non citizen protesting and causing social unrest diabolical. Most international students, (whether studying in the US or Europe or Australia or Malaysia or indeed anywhere else) understand that their visa does not grant

Didn't say it wasn't. I said invoking an accessibility standard when it comes to a guy's personal website is laughable because the way it was said implied he was compelled to change his site because some bureaucratic busybodi

HN should just have a rule that all content should be human-generated. This post is literally an LLM writing about something an LLM did; it's a bot botting about a bot. Aside from how funny and dystopian that is - just ban it? Just mak

Your iPhone has this cool feature called reader mode if you didn’t know. As for mentioning WCAG - so what if it doesn’t adhere to those guidelines? It’s his personal website, he can do what he wants with it. Telling him you found it difficu

The article spends a lot of time acting like this is some intractable problem and that its intractability is the reason there is so much discrepancy between countries and agencies.

Why are you talking about how it feels once you’ve seen AGI when you’ve never seen AGI, Sam? In all seriousness, we’ve got glorified autocorrect right now. Even suggesting any of these LLMs is actual AGI is laughable. I’m not saying they ca

Most offer ways to opt out, some don’t. Scraping somebody’s website might be annoying or problematic traffic-wise but that’s a far (very far) step removed from saying scrapers should be criminalised. The latter statement is outright laughab
