"In talking to the subjects, researchers discovered that high exposure to pornography videos apparently resulted in lower responsivity and an increased need for more extreme, specialized or “k+++y” material to become aroused."[1]

It's not a left-right divide. Privacy advocates are a combination of the general right-wing + the anti-establishment left-wing. The people supporting this are establishment career politicians, who are left-wing as well (e.g. ylva johan

Passkeys are the pinnacle of bad UX. It just works, until the user tries to switch devices, accounts or platforms. The slogan of passkeys should be something like "I don't have a password, it usually just works, but now I changed

TLDR: Author of an open-source project has a crashout over other people using LLMs for coding, believes that AI will replace all developers, and decides to preemptively give up on software engineering entirely because of that. IMO anyone wh

It would take a lot of effort for Mastercard/Visa to stop physical retailers from selling Steam gift cards. Beyond gift cards, there's also systems such as PaySafeCard, which lets you pay with cash at a physical store and spend it

Google is killing Manifest V2, and AFAIK all downstream Chromium-based browsers (Brave, Edge, Vivaldi, Opera, etc) will eventually be affected. That should say enough about why having multiple browser engines is a good thing.

Honestly sounds like you handled it very well. Starting with strong parental controls, then gradually decreasing it as they become more mature and understanding of the dangers is definitely the best way to provide online safety, without bei

We can likely agree on a lot. Overregulation is bad, I don't want the government or large corporate monopolies to have more control. I also grew up with the internet and am very familiar with it, much more so than the average person. T

Definitely. I remember the era of the living room desktop PC, and that was a pretty easy and effective solution. But the primary benefit of parents giving smartphones to their kids these days is the ability to stay in contact while away fro

Because most parents are oblivious to the danger, and are not taking action on their own. Meanwhile the unrestricted internet can be just as dangerous to a child's development as alcohol or drugs, if not more. The regulation should jus

That opinion still stands. But I believe that we should regulate children's access to the internet, and not the internet's access to children. As the prior does not affect adults and their free, open and private internet, while th

I personally see the LLM as a (considerably better) alternative to StackOverflow. I ask it questions, and it immediately has answers for my exact questions. Most often I then write my own code based on the answer. Sometimes I have the LLM g

There's also Jan AI, which supports Linux, MCP, any Vulkan GPU, any Llama.cpp-compatible model, and optionally multiple cloud models as well. That seems like a better solution than this.

The solution is to have filtering on the actual client devices. There need to be specialized minor-friendly devices with parental controls at the OS level, and apps need a standardized framework to integrate with those parental controls. Th

It already exists; Yggdrasil. It's a fully decentralized IPv6 mesh network. Most users do primarily use the internet for transport now, but it can work just as well over link-local (e.g. ethernet, P2P wireless). It's fast, end-to-

Could be nice if Google helped them out with servers and bandwidth, to make it work smoothly. The Internet Archive is great but often also very reminiscent of the web on 56K dial-up.

What's going to be more interesting is what hardware is added for this, and what it can be made to do other than this service that's obviously part of Google Play Services. Can it be made useful in some way on AOSP?

Great blog post. The company response was really great, but there was no mention of a bug bounty. This would be a perfect example if he got paid for his findings.

I'd recommend just going on-premise for storage. You can build a full system with more than enough RAID-1 storage which will have 100% ROI in a few months compared to what they're supposed to pay for Cloudflare Images. Just use th
