The OOT and MM decomp had a bruteforcer tool that would reorder lines until the register allocation matched.

It's like a litmus test, or a bowl without brown M&Ms, or a car with a broken windshield. If the most obvious things are wrong, we save energy by heuristicising the whole thing is wrong.

The law is whatever gets enforced.

Those are distillations of existing knowledge. They are necessarily behind the status quo. "You can't call this newfangled contraption a computer, because a computer is a person!"

Yeah Google benefits you by tracking you and delivering more relevant ads too. Doesn't make it any less creepy.
96.
by mitxela 22d ago
Because at least one mechanism of tracking still exists we should just give up on blocking any of them?

Caches are also isolated. One of the reasons you shouldn't use a JavaScript CDN any more.

Well, currently the free market is the government, while the nominal government is something less powerful than that.

And the river's in the canyon and the canyon's in the plateau and the plateau's in the volcanic shield and the green grass grows all around, all around, and the green grass grows all around.

Well, some people care and some don't. The people who care don't get to work on the technology.

Nobody knows what intelligence is. We've recently discovered a lot of things that it isn't.

People don't believe me that Cloudflare blocks more humans than bots. They see in the dashboard "number of bots blocked" and it's like their brain turns off.

You don't think all industrial countries have stuff like that? Do you really think the European economy is stifled by bottle caps being attached to their bottles by default? Even if it bothers you, it's a really weak attachment,

Just like the ATM has Windows 3.1 inside.

Ok you have blocked half the internet in your country - including its own government. Does this make you more or less popular with voters? The libertarian party promises to end the stupid internet blocking, will they win the next election?

It was actually illegal for the post office to read your mail or the phone company to listen to your calls.

You know it's not something Reddit set up, right? It's a bot that has moderator powers. They can't really stop you from doing it.

It's a joke based on the construction of emojis? Female plus fire engine obviously denotes a female fire engine but has apparently been repurposed as a female firefighter instead

The other option is to start making more software AF-agnostic and not assume that an address is always an ipv4 or ipv6 address.

The problems begin with taking 5-10 minutes to locate a file on the network. That's right, when you ask for a file it takes 5-10 minutes. Also if the file isn't in the network at all then it never terminates. Nobody noticed becaus

Yes. This thing literally makes you spam HN in order to sign up. And for that reason this submission should be flagged.
112.
by mitxela 22d ago
You can also use HN but your HN account will be either shadow banned or rate limited because then you are spamming.

Piracy has a positive tone for me. It implies liberating information.

by mitxela 22d ago
Why is the sign-up system so complicated? Why not just log into your HF account and be done? You're trying to force people to spam on X and HN so that their X and HN accounts get deleted?

I think it's like residential proxies. People get upset about "it's using my thing!" even though it has literally no effect on them.

They don't. That's the conversation topic. Nor do they need to. 99% of everything is crap, and not worth prescribing except for a random sample so future historians can study our crap.

Most of IPFS doesn't actually work very well, if you've ever tried to use it

After nginx blows up a city, it'll be illegal to run or have a copy of nginx. "But nginx won't blow up a city..." Relax. If it doesn't happen, your nginx is safe.

I'm not active in this space but why do you think anything happened since this? As far as I know, it still works.

Then the networks will be full of solely slop, and will have no value. Look at Reddit right now - who still uses it? Only people who mainly hang out in subreddits the slop hasn't caught up with yet.
