The two noteworthy aspects are: 1) if you click on an ad on startpage, you're inside Google's network. If you click on an ad on the duck, you're inside Bing's network. 2) the duck is independent and startpage is owned by

Thank you! It uses Bing as a backup and for most general search. We have our own index that focuses on specific communities, including HN. Dark mode is definitely in the pipeline.

If you add Pinterest to your blocklist [1], does that count as better results? That said, we have our own index of websites posted on HN and other interesting communities. It will add filters like size and "privacy rank". Unfortun

Thank you. When we can afford it -- we will definitely run multiple independent audits to verify our privacy claims. At the moment there isn't any simple way to do it. You'll have to take my word for it. We are currently not makin

Not really a good example. Blind humans don't navigate cities easily, even when cities take them into account. As an example, crossing a street despite tactile surfaces on each side can be a hassle because it's difficult to tell i

Currently not making any money. It's a bit of a chicken egg-problem.. Ad networks that offer the type of ads suitable for a search engine want user data, unless you have a significant number of users, in which case they're willing

The French use the vigesimal system (base-20). I learned this fact while learning Norwegian, which doesn't use a base-20 system anymore, expect almost everybody above 50y still use the Danish system (also base-20, like French), which w

We also live in an apartment. During quarantine we divided our time with our four year old 50/50. Our main bedroom became an office the kid wasn't allowed to enter while either of us were working. No electronics with the exception

Comparing the Roman Empire to Napoleon who lived fifty years and only invaded then briefly ruled neighboring European countries under heavy turmoil is quite a stretch.

My understanding is that they have a 'hidden' network of websites that display ads from Googles ad network (AdSense), and they use those earnings to buy GOOG.

Is that the case everywhere in the US? In Spain, a good private nursery ("guarderia") cost tops €250-350 per month anywhere outside of Madrid and Barcelona. Children of low income households have free public daycare. From the age

Unless you have reliable information about Sweden exaggerating the number of Covid deaths, I can't see the argument. Even if Sweden wrongly labelled 25% as Covid deaths, that's still a significantly larger number population size t

It's not clear how Sweden's strategy is working compared to other Nordic countries. Norway has at the time of writing 255 deaths, Sweden 5646, and 19 vs 769 new cases today.[1][2] Norwegians are more or less back to normal life. E

Jokes aside: boil uncut for a minute or two. In the meantime start frying some nicely cut carrot in olive oil, cut and add broccoli to frying pan, add garlic and some seasoning, apply soy sauce or a bit of tomato sauce. Serve with white ric
