Taxes are very much not voluntary donations to governments. They are enforced by threat of state-sanctionned violence.

Incredible, love learning language facts like this.

LLMs do not know math, at all. Not to sound like one myself, but they are stochastic parrots, and they output stuff similar to their training data, but they have no understanding of the meaning of things beyond vector encodings. This is why

Couldn't have said it better myself. Your last point also highlights a real issue that affects real humans: just because someone (or something) cannot talk doesn't mean that they are not intelligent. This is a very current subject

You're allowed to say that the 3rd party spam checker was mailinblack. If it wasn't, then I know from experience they would have reacted the same.

10c per part is incredibly high depending on how low-cost we're talking. If your chip needs very basic processing, and you're going to sell it for less than a cent per chip, you need your core to be basically free. Sure RISC-V is

I don't think it's quite the same thing. Laptops in particular often have machined (?) surfaces that feel very weird to the touch, regardless of electricity. HP in particular is a regular offender, though I haven't touched ma

I guess the wording is awkward, but as a trans person, I still resonate with it. I'm acutely aware it's not going to be "my voice", but neither is the one I have right now.

Businesses point cameras at the public for the sole purpose of surveillance. I'm not talking other businesses, I'm talking business built to sell and launder surveillance footage.

I don't know what's wrong with your tap water in the US but here we generally drink that and didn't invent "a tap, but slower".

If you're here, you enjoy zachtronics games. We talk a lot about their programming games, but also check out Eliza, the visual Novel they made. It's great.

I mean, usually when archeologists don't understand a device they just end up chucking it in the "religious device" bin. Not that would exactly be wrong here, but you know.

As someone younger who grew up in a time where you would get a cell phone during teenage years, I can't say I empathize with your view of "my device" vs "interruption device". Although there are likely an overwhelmi

You jest, but I wouldn't put it past cheap Chinese manufacturing to somehow do this at some point in the next 100 years. "How did you invent a room temperature supraconductor? -we thought it would save us $0.00001 per part"

How come YouTube is advertising to me but not giving back enough to the creator such that that creator then has to take sponsors to pay the bills? If YouTube's ad tech were good and the deals fair, the sponsors would just advertise on

Even if they auth every user, what's stopping me from making my own API key and feeding it to my favorite app?

Ubo has been working hard to make sure you don't see it. YouTube keeps tweaking it's stuff so that the filters break, presumably on purpose.

Huh. I had a 360 controller and a wireless adapter for my pc. It died a few years back though.

If that's your cup of tea then elite dangerous might scratch that itch.

You seem to be conflating a stateful firewall with a NAT. Unless you really need to, you're never doing NAT on ipv6.

by themoonisachees 2y ago
This is patently false. They don't host services , sure, but the current landscape has all but shaped application design into assuming at least one party will be behind a NAT, which heavily centralizes traffic because it becomes impos

I have a magic enter plugin that just runs 'll' when I input no command and press enter, I haven't typed ll in months!

by themoonisachees 2y ago
Here is why this is relevant to anyone who's not a network admin, and why it is especially relevant to the HN crowd of tech-people: If a server has no AAAA record, machines only connected to IPV6 simply cannot contact that server. This

Thanks for the explanations! Funnily enough we did end up saying "implement a full browser stack" :/

Wasn't there also a time where you could open a raw socket with SVG? SVG is very much from a time when we didn't know what the web was going to be or how it was going to work.

Because controlling the browser means you control the default search engine, and that is valuable. If all it takes to do that is repackage chrome then so be it.

You should try it. Go Ask chtagpt to generate a program that finds all windows in XYZ project and move them to a 'ew workspace and I guarantee it'll fail. Maybe it'll get it right if you feed it back error messages, but you c

Eating any one food for a long time is going to have negative consequences because unless that food is a meal replacement shake, you're going to need to get the vitals not in that food from somewhere. The alternative, however is death
