I'm not sure, is there one for killjoy? Seriously though, I see this exact complaint so often on this site. If people like you are so bothered by superfluous (or enjoyable and engaging, depending on your perspective) prose why not just

Really terrible headline for a totally decent article. The Garth Brooks solution is super interesting. > He adds shows until they no longer sell out. In recent years, on single tours, Brooks has done the following: He played nine concert

Right on. The comment you replied to is a perfect example of the zero-effort, knee-jerk, dismissive comments that are such a tired trope of this site. PS: Had a great time giving my second peer practice interview on your platform this morni

This all makes sense. On the flip side I'd imagine that there are some abortion clinic operators who are already strategizing with legal foundations to deliberately bring an ideal test case as soon as possible in order to establish a f

> Will people have to be careful where they travel now? It seems pretty clear to me that in your scenario Texas wouldn't have jurisdiction over anything that happens outside its border. I'm certainly not a lawyer though and wou

Thank you. It's not just the ridiculous title either. The inaccurate framing permeates the whole article. It's straight up embarrassing.

Thanks for the recommendation! I am indeed sketched out by most extensions that require the all-hosts permission but this one does seem pretty legit so I'll give it a shot.

Can you think of another way to implement it that wouldn't be just as obnoxious though? I feel like anything that could be perceived as unobtrusive could just as likely be seen as trying to hide or minimize the presence of the banner w

I left a thumbs-up reaction on the GitHub post. The cookie outrage is completely absurd.

So then why do you think you see them? *Edit: Sorry if this came off as rude but it was a legitimate question. I honestly cannot think of another plausible reason that would explain the proliferation of the banners.

How do I grant universal consent to be tracked so that I can browse the web in peace? The law failed to consider this and made the browsing experience considerably worse for those of us who couldn't care less about being tracked. Not t

Why should I be mad about a tracking cookie? > Understand that cookie banners are malicious compliance and they make a lot more sense. How are they malicious compliance? The laws are poorly-reasoned and poorly-written. I'll continue

I don't understand why people care about cookies. The stupid cookie banners are an actual nuisance.

Ctrl + F => "bio" and this comment was the only result out of 100+. Surprising! I think biometrics sounds like the best solution. YubiKeys will get lost/damaged/stolen and then you're back to square one. With bio

As a self-taught developer this book has been an incredibly valuable resource. I'm immensely grateful that resources like this exist freely on the internet.

Did you ever try fasting for an extended period of time during any of that? I've never gone more than ~48 hours but from what I've watched and read, people seem to stop feeling hungry after say four or five days. I wonder if that

I think righteous indignation is all but inevitable when you're sourcing hot takes on the internet. Your questions are interesting but one could write a dissertation on any one of them. Here on Hacker News you might have a higher chanc

A huge problem of the 21st century is that everyone feels like they have a right to tell everyone else what they must do. It's fine to listen to scientists and care about others. My goodness. So tired.

Speaking only for myself, the fear of creeping authoritarianism is not about some grand conspiracy by "the elites" but rather about our collective tolerance of such a "new normal." I just responded to another commenter h

Have you considered taking steps to possibly improve your own health instead of wishing that a government or corporation would require everyone around you to wear a face covering indefinitely for your own personal benefit?

I've found this book to be very helpful: Mathematical Notation: A Guide for Engineers and Scientists [0]. It's compact, very well organized, and has several indexes to make symbol lookups easier and good summaries of what they mea
