I'm not much of an anime person, but I watched an episode of Blue Lock with a friend, and fell in love with it. Watched it over the next few weeks, and it gave me a completely new understanding and appreciation for soccer, ambition, an

This is an important topic, but I think this website is doing a bit of a bad job communicating it. It also at no point (as far as I can tell) provides a timeframe for when these essays were written? So statements like "in the last twen

I've hit that overflow issue; it's a real bummer cause the effect is so much simpler to achieve if it worked in Chrome! I played around with the idea using the simple single backdrop-filter and had some success with inheriting the

Nice! Oh and the new samples are awesome! It actually looks super cool to see it in interactive elements. Would love to see a write-up of how you made this work. I took a peak at the repo and I can see it's using a bunch of SVG filters

Interesting! An option to view the CSS directly on the site would be useful. I'm curious to see how it works under the hood, but don't want to download the file since I'm on mobile.

I hear this feedback a lot when people think the results of a research study are "obvious", but anecdotally 'obvious' vs. evidence supported conclusion hold an intensity different weight! But firstly, this can't rea

This would I think be the ideal if it's possible. I'd love videos to have signatures that prove when it was recorded, that it was recorded from so and so a phone, that it hasn't had any modification, and maybe even optionally

Yeah I agree; and it's generally a bit harder to communicate _too_ much misinformation in a thumbnail.

I wish we could have something like exes with permissions. Similar to browsers. So I could run an arbitrary executable, but the OS level APIs would be blocked unless the user allowed the given permission.

I recently shifted my opinion on IQ tests a bit after watching a recent Veritasium video. He goes into the background/history/controversy of the test as well as some of the concrete impacts of the test and places where it's u

My guess would be this is an overzealous AI-generated content detector. Amazon has been flooded with low quality AI generated books in the past ~year, and has been removing a lot of it. My guess would be they're still tweaking their al

That's certainly a hypothesis. Definitely not guaranteed. The counterargument would likely be that renewables will be cheaper as a result of technological advancements, so other countries _will_ prefer them. Also, your hypothesis large

The guy had a Ted talk a while back going into his motivations. I believe the main one was he didn't like how phones get between you and the world, and take you out of the moment. This was an attempt to make tech that isn't a dist

According to the hacker news guidelines, I'm not sure that's a valid reason. Hacker news specifically blocks news about politics: > What not to submit: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless th

I think in the internet age we can do better than "according to a Gaza health ministry spokesman". Linking to original sources should be the standard. Almost everything is online. I think exceptions for things like anonymous sourc

I think news articles lacking citations is one of more backwards parts of modern news. How is it that Wikipedia is more reliable and neutral than journalists and news? I think there needs to be a journalistic standard put in place, and all

Ah I reckon what you meant was "Oh this approach only temporarily installed the add-on, your parent post was asking about a way to permanently install an add-on." Took me a while to figure out what you meant. Ah missed that; yep,

Odd! Were you trying to fetch a public, CORS-enabled API? That should just work. If you were trying to make a network request for a non-CORS endpoint (eg fetch the google homepage or something), you'll need to add the domain to your pe

Huh? To the best of my knowledge, to get a development extension working in FF: 1. Ctrl-shift-a to open add-ons page 2. Click the cog, and select "debug add-ons" 3. Click "load temporary add-on" 4. Select a file in your

I always find that story funny because the structure is so clearly beautiful to my eyes! I was responding to some sibling comments that said that today "most people" don't think it's beautiful.

I'm not outraged, just surprised at how confidently people will say statements that are near impossible to justify. Eg the Eiffel Tower "is not typically thought of as an example of 'a beautiful thing'". ... What??

Wow, I'm blown away people here are confidently saying things like "most people don't think the Eiffel Tower is beautiful." Huh? Are you guys joking? Are these comments generated by GPT? It's beautiful because of it

Your last example is an example of terrible journalism. But I wouldn't quite call this article good journalism. There are lots of spots where it crossed the line of presenting facts to making bold, unprovable assumptions. Here are some
