> so they can track users by logged in state. This is not allowed either. GDPR, unlike the previous attempt isn't a cookie law but a data law.

The thing is this is something we suffer through while we wait for companies to get enough, and large enough fines to actually read GDPR and respect it. Once that happens it will be almost as before, just with less battery usage, less netwo

Then fines like this come along and will force Microsoft to simplify the ux of this down to where it should be: It should be absolutely trivial to reject tracking unless you actively want it.

No, I usually skip breakfast and the usual lunch. Typically I just drink 0.5L of milk and walk 2-4 km during the lunch break although I do make exceptions once a week or something. For me personally this works well, I don't get hungry

Good for you. 17 years since I met my gf here. And I started on vim a long time before IntelliJ :-)

It is also the simplest refactoring, and my point is no command line tricks I have can seen can even reliably do this. Refactoring support in modern IDEs goes far beyond renaming public fields and methods.

Important. Firefox got where it was partially because many of us installed it for coworkers and relatives and everyone else, not because ordinary users sat down to try to figure out what browsers existed and which one was better. Towards th

As far as I can see it the single most important thing about Mozilla today is that they keep alive one of two mainstream renderers that aren't owned by Google. I think everyone who has followed the industry for long enough knows that i

Exactly. Find something that works for oneself. Keto works for some people. Just reducing plate size helps for some. Personally I skip breakfasts (I love breakfast, but it is not worth the brain fog that I personally get later in the day) a

I think I realized two things a while ago: 1. calories in / calories out is true when calories are around what you need or below. If you go above, a lot it the excess calories will, for many of us, just leave unused. 2. Many people con

So are we finally getting Google+ back? Or another Twitter clone? That said, when it comes to Mozilla I'd prefer if they fix some long standing issues on the browser, from the top of my head: - fix the API so I can use Tree Style Tabs

I joked recently that these days, if you see a XML file in a project it means there is a higher probability that the project is good. It means someone of those who make it is capable of making pragmatic decisions.

Pinboards dev already has some kind of problem, whatever it is. Raindrops dev doesn't, as far as I can see. Also raindrop look nicer and hasn't scammed anyone that I am aware of. Basically one is approximately 100% chance of not

VSCode / IntelliJ / Netbeans / Eclipse - it is crazy how much time a decent IDE with refactoring support can save. (And still many on HN hate on them. I am fairly sure that for most people that spend lots of time on vim had s

Crazy useful. So useful I like it despite how it always goes out of its way to waste my time by trying to misrepresent a number of different types of strings and numbers as American dates :-|

Signed up for raindrop now. Wondering what happens if the solo dev gets ill, but as long as I backup it has to be better than pinboard has become.

If you are doing mainstream frontend work and haven't yet moved to TypeScript, that would be my first recommendation.

Yep, but just needs enourmous amounts if construction, not insane amounts.

Or you can use multiple ordinary hydro power dams (i.e. ordinary lakes where one or more outlets are blocked). I'm fairly certain we have these multi level semi natural systems here in Norway, but I am not sure if we use them for pumpe
