Only if you listen on shuffle(like every music app I guess) or in their AI lists. Would be nice if the AI ones would respect that for sure, was wondering why that's not a thing since like 2016.

Wrapped works so well because it panders to you. Everyone likes to be acknowledged for listening to the weird indie band they discovered earlier this year. I enjoy it anyways, and Spotify is still a great service for now - I wonder if it&#x

With this, you really have to mind that camera quality on Zoom and WebEx is usually so terrible that you can't read anything smaller than what he put on his slide and in an illegible color(like red on brown), since the camera is the fi

Disclaimer: Supergiant also sold out to Epic Games, one of the game industry harbingers of doom and workplace abuse(together with Activision-Blizzard). Might not want to give those any money.

That's interesting, thanks - will read up on that. I'm gay but I sadly wasn't existing enough in the early 90s to have caught it live :)

Makes me wonder if there was a lot of thought given to ethics when planning this study. If we've learned anything, we should know that people will be terrible enough to want to "cure" homosexuality or detect it before birth,

Maybe that's your experience because you're into the matter, for me, judging from the screenshots and explanation, it seems like Scratch-like/no-code CV which seems pretty cool.

I'd rather not use the service if it has hCaptcha OR ReCaptcha. hCaptcha has bad UX, their dataset is way harder to decipher and commonly takes me three or four tries to get around on Cloudflare, if it doesn't keep failing with a

Polarization ticks something off in our brains, especially if it's negative and conform with your pre-existing views on a particular subject. I guess HN users might have caught up to the rest of the internet on how to get clicks.

You don't need to provide this publicly if you do not have any billing in your app, so no IAP or paid apps. They might just not verify it though. Google has it, since publishing requires a $15 one-time fee. Of course, you can put bogus

If anything, it seems to work out for him at SpaceX. Speed and latency measured with the Starlink beta/GA are unparalleled at the moment, yet to see if they worsen with an increase of userbase.

Why is lobbyism not a solved problem? Why is it not yet more scrutinized than it should be? Peace and freedom in all western countries is at stake because there is no accountability. Is money that powerful? What else can we do than to vote

If you think that conversion therapy is voluntary in most cases, you're delusional. There's a lot of outside pressure involved and often, you don't really have a chance but to give into that until you can leave your whole fam

I wonder if it would be feasible for e.g. Canonical to offer a free, hosted implementation of the Sync servers. The protocol is openly documented afaik, and there might already be efforts to implement an open server. It also has e2ee built-

Telegram got around Russian censors by constantly pushing new IPs for their servers with Google Cloud. Of course this is a cat and mouse game as well, but it worked out well for them, since Russia didn't want to block all of Google

Since authoritarian governments noticed that this is something they can actually do, it seems as if it's becoming more and more popular. Will be interesting to see when this first happens in an European or American country.

No, at the moment, the law explicitly only mentions "Google" and "Facebook". That should tell you a lot about the people that lobbied/wrote it.
