They are going all in on tolerating third party AI slop on Youtube. That feels like an executive decision at this point. Guessing: because they have AI products in the pipeline that can create Youtube shorts or similar. This aspect will be

The ultimate goal is to make anonymous speech online seem shady and suspicious (only trust thoughts from certified citizen accounts) and to make people more cautious about what they write online. Politicians are really tired of being mocked

You have to use an adblocker on mobile these days. On iOS it’s tricky with Chrome. Use e.g. Brave or Vivaldi instead. It’s built-in.

You're right - it's an observation and an idea.

It sounds like you are approaching this from a Marxist perspective. Have you tried thinking about this from other perspectives? (Just as an exercise.)

> They would be extremely happy for there to be more crime and more unrest about immigration if it meant they could seize powers like these. What country is this? Sounds really bad.

In practice it's a combination of: a) wanting to soon expand this scheme to catch criminal gang communication (violent narco-related crime is exploding in e.g. some northern EU countries) [center-right goal] b) wanting to make people m

That sucks for that usecase, agreed. On the plus side, there is finally a free modern piece of software that matches 80s MacDraw and MacPaint on the Mac. (Keynote isn’t it.)

> people challenged on PRC literacy I believe you have a much more literal term for that.

Of course 90% of your previous comments are explicitly related to the PRC. Apologies for only reviewing 100 of them.

I heard that both sides of the ongoing civil war ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_civil_war_(2021%E2%80%... ) work with these criminal organizations to secure foreign revenue for weapons purchases - but that it is

I’d be okay with that if they fixed iOS 26 looking like dog poo. (I’ll simply keep using the superior Google Maps anyway. I’m sure it has has ads but it hasn’t bothered me.)

Tangent: Google keeps doing the same with GCP/Firebase/etc. Every year they launch a bunch of really well-crafted services that make it easy to build the most average kind of product in whatever area is trendy that year. Every yea

It appears the idea is to fund this using frozen Russian funds in EU. Zelenskyy and Kristersson (Swedish PM) both made a point of saying they are travelling to Brussels tonight to attempt to make this happen. (I watched the press conference

It would be useful to have some kind of future feasibility risk analysis service for open third party dependencies. Something that can be plugged into CI. Perhaps something like this already exists?

The amount of technical details in the article stands out quite a lot compared to modern mainstream reporting. (I remember this outage.)

Insipid text. Also: HN needs to upgrade its bot upvoting detection tech. This is embarrassing. It was proper ownage of the HN #1 position for like 15 minutes straight. And then like #2-3 for an hour or so.

by lysace 1y ago
I'd say YC/HN needs to invest more in detecting fake voting. It's becoming clear they they are mostly relying on flagging, these days. This is however easily abused. (Alas...)

by lysace 1y ago
Agreed. There seems to be some very strong anti-Google force on HN. I guess there's just a lot of astroturfing in this area.

From what I have seen in software from similar iniativies: If they are good enough at the subject matter to be useful they invariably get sucked into it the actual development effort. So you end up with people who aren't and then it do
