Flock cameras aren't enforcing anything. They collect your license plate and distinguishing details of your car. It's just car X with plate Y detected at location Z at time T. Notably, they are not used for speed detection or &#x2

This looks like another AI project. The HN user is new, the GitHub user is 4 days old, and all the content in the GitHub repo is authored by someone else. There's a blog repo with one commit containing 29 pre-written posts. A third rep

I don't want a big search bar on my home screen, and there's no way around it with the Pixel Launcher except use a different launcher.

I haven't really looked but I wonder if there are any IP reputation services tracking AI crawlers the same way they track tor relays and vpns and such. If those databases were accurate it seems like you could prevent those crawlers fro

It's just really grating to buy a nice screen and then have all the streaming services basically lock you to early-2000s picture quality. It's not that it doesn't work at all, but if I get the big nice modern screen I want to

The opaque covers (and essentially all license plate decorations, frames, covers, etc.) are illegal as of October 1 in Florida. I believe initially the plan is stop-and-educate, but the law provides for a $500 fine and up to 60 days jail ti

I'm not really disagreeing with you, but I think it's more about salesmanship than anything else. "We released v1 and copyright holders immediately threatened to sue us, lol" sounds like you didn't think ahead, and

The steel used to make the knives is not always stainless, so it can stain or rust. Even stainless is really just stain resistant. Dishwasher detergent is caustic and corrosive to steel, so over time it can pit the metal and dull the finish

I'm not disputing that, and it's kind of my point. Most home cooks (I would bet millions) are not worrying about "the cutting experience" when they are making dinner. They are using a knife to cut up vegetables or slice

I think the answer to your question is that most people impacted to the severe degree you're imagining don't live till 70. I don't know what the condition was, but I had an aunt who was affected by 'something' and w

Not to worry! Per the "Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections" executive order, birth certificates are not valid proof of citizenship for the purposes of voting in a federal election anyway.

Re: 2026, it's possible Democrats could take back the House, and then be able to impeach the President. But it looks like they would need to win 32 of the 33 seats up for grabs in the Senate - 20 of which are currently held by Republic

SCOTUS said the money could not be frozen, but I don't think they put a deadline on when it had to be paid out. So it's not over. The VP and Musk have both written recently about how the judiciary can't tell the executive bra

I didn't read them all, but I read enough to think they were lying about it being tweets from 2017. It reads like someone asked ChatGPT to summarize current political news in the US.

Does Dell just have one campus? Are teams typically homogeneous near one campus? I'm thinking about my own employer, where I have been WFH since I got hired. My team is spread across 5+ states. I'd be the only person from my team

This isn't really the problem, though. This is an easy problem to solve; the real problem is that it costs money to do so. Also: I'm not asserting that the below is good, just that it works. First, don't make every check a re

Allegedly, the biggest concern this time around was the economy. Millions of people complaining about inflation and the cost of goods voted for a guy promising to raise tariffs, and a party that historically caters to big business. The same

Sort of? I think it's definitely the case that the group of voters in 1789 was much smaller and more homogeneous than it is today. I also think the nature of propaganda has changed a little as well. Today, messages can be delivered che

We were interested in Issues and Projects, but the number of people at an organization who need access to those but not to code or CI is pretty large. GitHub does not have a different license option for BA/CX/PM types. We ended up

Are you aware of any health insurance plans in the US which don't have an open enrollment period? I think this is standard across the industry as a check against adverse selection, but most of the information quickly available is ACA-f

For me it's a few things. First, most/all new Smart TVs are doing automated content recognition, collecting and sharing details about what you watch with the manufacturer, which they sell and/or use to show you ads. My unders

What I think I just read is that content moderation is complicated, error-prone, and expensive. So Meta is going to do a lot less of it. They'll let you self-moderate via a new community notes system, similar to what X does. I think th

This is the question I had about this. The reason this design works per the article is that the GPU memory is inaccessible to the OS, so the decrypted content cannot be stolen. With a unified memory architecture, is the shared GPU memory in
