You made the choice to use Apple TV, whatever that is. I just use... YouTube. In my browser. Do you not have a browser? It doesn't cost money. You also have no obligation to watch ads for creators to get paid. They can also set up thin

Sounds like you've made a choice to watch ads. Which is fine, but then maybe don't complain about it.

If you're going to eat an apple this way, some notes: - Start from the blossom end (the bottom). This makes the core more palatable for multiple reasons. - The blossom remains themselves may have mold in very rare cases. Take a look be

I'm not going to help people make their AI outputs harder to detect.

Nope, every topic this year is an AI topic. :-(

Yeah, I've given up on arguing with heavy LLM users. They're just a meat proxy, and I'm arguing with the LLM. No thanks.

Even if that were true, they've already admitting to throwing vast quantities of resources to scoop a researcher who was about to publish (because they'd learned, somehow, of his breakthrough). If that doesn't bother you I

I don't know what phys.org's "security check" entails but it froze my browser repeatedly for up to 30 seconds at a time. If that's you as well, here's a different way to read it: https://web.archive.

I'm a barefooter and the grounding thing sounds like bunk to me. Now, my big caveat here would that one shouldn't confuse effects with explanations . Even if the explanations are pseudoscience, it could still work. But... you r

Yeah, it did wonders for my mood when I started walking to work barefoot. Something about the varying textures, I think? And the extra stimulation. Doesn't take long to build up a good enough callus that even sharp gravel is tolerable.

I pay with cash for pretty much all in-person transactions. It's great! Minimal friction, very little tracking risk, works even when the ISP connection or the merchant network is down. You can even use it to pay people who don't u

Math is largely performed in collaboration. Collaboration requires trust. If people like you had their way, we would lose trust, therefore collaboration, and therefore progress. So if math is all that matters to you, you should care about t

I regretfully added a Deny for Googlebot in my robots.txt this year. Never thought it would come to that.

Of course. But that's not what we have in the present moment, excepting a few instances here and there.

I think people are downvoting you for several reasons: - Taking administration propaganda pieces at face value (such as the batshit insane page you linked to) - Referring to "violent antifa cells". That's the spin Trump has b

I'm an AI hater but this doesn't make sense to me.

For your explanation to be correct, you'd have to explain why this doesn't affect field workers of other genetic background all around the world.

Using a lighter weight DOM can help. There's always a point where it starts to bog down, but many pages are just unnecessarily heavy because they're relying on so many nested widgets and whatnot.

Wow. Sounds much more reliable than a real doorbell & and a piece of tape over the Blink's button saying "-> use other doorbell".

I don't see any relevant reference online to "Pharoah’s Fortune".

This is a silly take. AI is why they're having to waste energy.

Sounds cool, but it's too heavy for my laptop.

Wild stuff. Look at the US State Department's accusations, which honestly read like an ad at first: « A/I’s cadre of radical hackers and tech developers provide a full spectrum of services – including encrypted chats and email, we

Huh, is this your first time seeing Anubis? It protects all sorts of sites now! (By the way: Jackal, not cat.)

It's still how I write JS. But I don't do professional frontend work. (That's by choice.)

Exactly. And on the browser front we had to contend with not only IE6, but IE5.5 on Mac, which was its own special beast.

I ran into the same problem about 20 years ago when implementing hover-based dropdown menus on a website. It was only about 10 lines of JS and a couple global variables but I was the only person who understood it. :-P (These days I would ha

LinkedIn has a couple of useful features: Getting in touch with former coworkers; seeing who might know the hiring manager for a position you're applying for; uh... that's about it. The rest is garbage but I guess is how they make

"During this period, the company also reset users’ weekly usage early on several occasions to celebrate milestones" Such a casino vibe.
