What this world needs is pro-active legislation. The current state of Amazon is the result of a very slow trajectory taking 20 years. It happened in plain sight and still we allow it to grow until it's a monster where most of commerce

They de-prioritized Firefox. Probably rightfully so, it doesn't stand a chance against Chrome and Safari being shipped as defaults on mobile. They can't really "organically" engineer it back to meaningful market share. A

But why? Are you not interested in our weekly 4GB driver update? Even more ways to blink the lights now.

My guess would be in the app. Enforcing it at the bridge level would break so many setups, apps, custom integrations that even if they try this, they'll dial it back from the avalanche of outrage.

The type of behavior you describe might be related to your electricity setup in combination with generic LED behavior. I've had this behavior on a physical dimmer switch and an ordinary cheap LED. It couldn't be turned off. Someho

Similar to the "UN journalists" publication that shared that 20% of journalists killed were women, and that women should stop being targeted. Blatantly ignoring the 80% of men of course. Not to mention, who are they talking to any

Recently the CDC shared an analysis on suicide statistics. As one might expect, they concluded that there's disparities between demographics. And so they dutifully listed them: LGBTQ+, indigenous people, vets, various other groups. Exc

Here in the Netherlands we've had a supply shortage since WW2, which makes a supply shortage the status quo. There's no hidden conspiracy or grand government policy that causes it. There's multiple root causes but an overlook

You're saying goodbye to the old way too soon, and I'm not talking about the bad parts. I'm talking about the roles. Even in the most advanced progressive societies women continue to select for male providers (marry up) whils

I couldn't agree more. Progressive discourse has turned so ideological that perfectly normal mainstream conversations make people anxious. People shiver to even discuss the idea/benefits of a heterosexual marriage. As if its some

I think the truly new thing is that people can "want" children, opposed to this being a must (due to religion, lack of rights, it being a personal pension system, lack of contraception). When people are free to WANT children and d

I don't have the studies at hand but did come across research articles earlier that suggest that girls are only mildly affected in a female-only parenting situation whilst boys are strongly affected. It makes sense as they have no male

As part of conversations with ChatGPT I often roast it when answers are incorrect. Then I feel bad about myself when it starts apologizing.

They lost hundreds of thousands of dollars on an issue that was in production for several days. On the one and only feature generating revenue: showing ads. No unit testing, no integration testing (as was admitted) and no production sanity

This entire list will soon be obsolete as AI will link all your accounts by just giving it some of your text input. I believe I saw an experiment of somebody doing this for HN content with a pretty high accuracy? Project that idea into the

Surprised by your labor estimate. Here in the Netherlands, the norm is that it's a single day of work by a crew of two. That includes everything you described: rails, installation, repatching, wiring, inverter, basically the entire pac

Marl isn't born that way, Marl is made by the same tech you're talking about. You're not a victim of Marl, you actively produce new Marls. Whenever you introduce convenience into the world, you reprogram people. You create th
