Hmm. You get to see the desktop picture. You only run one application at a time and close it when finished then? I suppose Tahoe's performance regressions wouldn't count then.

Confirming. I tried that several times and it never sticks. Sequoia here.

Haha maybe that would reduce piracy. The easiest way to watch a movie in the player of my choice - even if i have legal access to it because it's in my netflix subscription - is to download it off piratebay. Add to that Netflix's

Why? Google has been doing automated bans for ages, even before "AI". By now they lost any trace of goodwill they ever had and are guilty until proven innocent.

Is this the end of "smart" washing machines and refrigerators? I can imagine Samsung asking for the user's age every time you want to grab a snack and refusing to unlock the door otherwise. Or perhaps... they could add a came

Well, it's also possible to replace JavaScript with a better language, it's just too late for it...

One interesting next step would be correlating "AI" use with how much of a social life those users have.

I'm sure somewhere there is a minority of people who actually like ditch digging and are satisfied. It just happens that for technical stuff the minority that likes what they do is larger and thus actually noticeable.

Hey, how about an extension that will hide user names completely when browsing HN comments? Edit: wait, just a custom CSS will do it. How about an option in the HN settings to hide user names then?

As always, the real question is who decides if it's bad faith or not...

Hah, I was just going to do a post of thanks for providing a Firefox extension and not sticking to Chrome only! Sadly I don't think I'm going to use it. I'm the kind that prefers to read only the comments and not the names at

Maybe it's because no matter how it was done this is a boring piece that talks about the tiny tiny minority of higher numbers obsessed "gamers" that do upgrade their hardware yearly. It's not even representative for game

... but if you don't offend anyone, is your comment even worth posting? Edit: and if you sugar coat your point until it's all newcorpospeak, will your point still be noticeable among all the fluff?

Firefox Mac - did this get autocorrected to an em dash ... ? Looks like no. It's probably Safari that "knows better".

That's what I'm wondering, since my linkedin profile is indeed linked to in my HN profile. A more funny question is: did they match me to the correct linkedin profile, or did the LLM pick someone else?

Technically it wasn't offline, was it? You could even browse it if you used a browser who still treats you like an adult and allows you to ignore certificate warnings.

So what? They'll just outsource it to somewhere else. Only question is who's going to lose the data first, Discord or the subcontractors?

I can think of a bunch of governments who would love that. Most are considered totaliarian. So... you can't win.
