Woah, this video is way more interesting than the Nvidia polaroid teaser in the original link.

Using Google fonts is a violation now. It's a nightmare for web developers.

I hadn't heard that in the context of bicycle helmets, but it's definitely true for football helmets and protective gear.

Fair enough, maybe I should have said "X has done this several[1][2] times with shut down projects and I think that's pretty cool because they had no obligation to do so." [1] - https://x.company/blog/pos

X has been really good about open sourcing all of the technical information from shut down projects. They did the same for the Makani power-generating kites. Love to see stuff like this

How long have you been abroad? I wonder what time horizon they consider for "primarily in the US". Seems like it's >> 30 days.

I feel like this is the case with 99% of YouTube takedowns.

It was posted as such here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30560125 But I haven't seen good corroborating sources yet.

Wow, YouTube as well apparently. I wonder if this will be a watershed moment in the balkanization of the internet, or if this access will be restored at some point in the future.

Aren't Russia and Venezuela pretty closely allied?

The US can't unilaterally grow NATO. It requires consensus among its members, many of which would hesitate to take such provocative measures.

Not just where the CDN is, but apparently where the company operating the CDN is incorporated. In the eyes of the EU, it doesn't matter if you serve out of an EU data center if the overall corporate entity is still subject to the laws

> Maybe someone makes a killer OS or product that has ad-blocking built-in from the ground up and is also so amazing that everyone switches to it, and so suddenly ad revenue drops to near zero? I guess we can dream. I'm not even sur

The differentiator seems to be the "ads within the mailbox". It looks like a leading question of sorts designed to make the user more accepting of ads being injected into and intermixed with their list of emails.

Neat, but I think the keyboard coloring could use tweaking. It wasn't immediately obvious to me which were unguessed letters and which were guessed but unmatched.

Okay, so it's an unsubstantiated conspiracy theory. Got it.

Here and further down this thread you repeatedly allege Google upranks pages if they participate in their ads program. Google explicitly says they do not do this [1]. Do you have evidence to contradict this? [1] - https://support

This (designing processes for rare edge cases) is endemic not only in people processes, but in technology-enabled business processes. I've had numerous clients fall into the trap of trying to over-engineer their process flow with valid

Thanks for the explanation - I, like OP, was experiencing some wild deja vu.

I'm not sure if they've improved it, but in the past Zoom's web client was missing significant simple features like gallery view that made it basically unusable for social calls.

I've found it defaults video quality to 480p but you can increase to 720p in settings and it looks much crisper.

I still have issues with zoom and audio cutting when multiple people speak at once. They seem to have gotten better over the last few years, but it still feels very jarring and disrupts the flow of conversation.

Isn't GSuite's market share something miniscule like 10%?

Wow, same results here. That's pretty poor.
