I know you’re feeling crazy right now, im too appalled at HNers inability to comprehend such simple logic and yet sound so confidently wrong at the same time. How is it possible you’re looking at a light source, and still see the shadow of

My gf’s YouTube account for some reason does not show ads on any device it is logged in, including the Apple TV. It is not premium, nor ever was premium. Wonder what flag is set internally that disabled ads.

I know what you mean haha. Instead of spending x2 the initial effort to fix the root cause, you spend x1 the initial effort to implement jank and then spend x10 the effort down the line maintaining the jank.

The difference isn’t just in the network calls, it’s the relinquishing of the blocking to Chrome itself. The Lite extension is essentially reduced to just providing a blocklist to Chrome, and hopes that Chrome will honor the blocklist. Goog

And that is precisely the moment I migrated to Firefox, together with my entire family. Chrome is dead. Long live Firefox.

If not for cloudflare, the site which you’re trying so hard to visit would probably not survive due to: 1. High genuine traffic 2. High bot traffic 3. Being DDoSed to death Everyone else other than you get to enjoy a snappy and fast loading

European companies are so deeply entrenched in American software ecosystem I can’t even. Just this past week my EU company deployed an agentic LLM hosted on Microsoft Azure with models developed by… Microsoft, on top of the existing GPT hos

Right? You’d think at Google’s scale they’d sanitize every single user inputs, like truncate the string and suffix it with “…” instead of the mail delivery throwing an exception.

A good control interface is an interface that you’re used to. The best kind of control interface is no interface, a set and forget a/c that has it all figured out; you just switch on the car and you’ll always feel comfortable.

Dude decided to go out of his way to import a car not sold in his country, and then act surprised when quality of service for said car is shit in his country. What is he expecting?

Yeah they’re fun tech demos, for the first couple of days. After that it gets really tiring, fast. Especially when connection “breaks” or an update comes along, you rip the “smart” part out and put that dumb switch back in.

I’m surprised everyone else’s servers are struggling to handle a couple of bot scrapes. I run a couple of public facing websites on a NUC and it just… chugs along? This is also amidst the constant barrage of OSINT attempts at my IP.
