I can't recall a single time that's been common advice given to programmers. It's usually either don't reinvent the wheel (therefore use the source while adhering to license), or come up with your own solution. Don'

It's ok to delete your content, it's your content. If you cared, you would have archived it. Same with others who might care about that content. Archiving it can mean using systems like IPFS to keep it alive as long as someone wan

Seconding the redact shoutout, although the UI could use a lot of work, it's certainly much easier than looking for an extension for the bunch of supported services or having to use an outdated script in tampermonkey. The nice thing ab

I agree with the guess, that's likely to happen because a) if you're already using the official app you don't care about increased tracking or monetization and b) most are unaware of spez. The only bit I don't agree with

Similar situation, he was surprised by how white they were too. I drink almost everything that isn't water through a straw and never swish it around. He said that's probably why the only reason he had to do any work was due to the

This gets repeated a lot, with the assumption that they're refusing to pay at all, but in the very original post they highlight how they do pay for API usage elsewhere (Imgur) already and therefore have no problem adding Reddit to that

Technically possible, but not really feasible due to the way Reddit is set up and people who signed up for the app agreed to. It would be a gigantic mess, and I reckon he's not interested in creating a new social platform/link agg

If it operates on more than one domain, it needs those permissions to function based on how the permissions system works. You can limit those yourself in the settings page for the extension, but everything else is basically workarounds appl

I believe the common theory is not the coffee acidity on its own, but the habits around it. People often drink coffee slowly and without a straw, this leads to staining but not tooth decay. However the slow part contributes to the teeth not

It's not just N95s though, the above also mentioned disposable masks which is absolutely not a new thing in healthcare.

It's just not good UX to programmatically trigger the dock flow either. But it does signal an important aspect about the current iteration: the share icon hides way too many choices that don't make any real sense for being under t

Both of them are claiming to be sciences otherwise they wouldn't be under the economic science and computer science umbrellas.

Why shouldn't he tell the public that every cancer is unique? It's technically true, much in the same way it's technically true you studied cancer but have for years been working with entirely unrelated fields to the advancem

Your example does not align with your closing statement. Using Arc is certainly not "sticking to web standards" in the way you're proposing. HN is simple and works, from a user perspective. I don't have my hands on the c

That's a wild perspective. I don't know how you can really come to that conclusion either. One attempt at getting Blender to render something using an AMD vs Nvidia card will paint a very very clear picture.

by waboremo 3y ago
Yes, HN also shares those problems. The upside is I don't see many people proclaiming to add HN to their google searches to find the pulse or whatever it may be, on the contrary it seems many come here just to debate. Which is the bigg

Their current libertarian approach to moderation is exactly the reason why I would label it as insane moderation policies.

Astroturfing is the least of the problems; most threads are filled with fake experts (of a very specific demographic - usually very young, american, male, etc) projecting. This is fine if you consciously remember this while browsing, but wh

Are they faster more productive ways though? You're still operating off keywords. It combines the mechanical effort of tags, with the mental upkeep required to remember which notes can be linked. Not great. I do agree everyone has a di

This sounds like the exact opposite of what the title is claiming.

I love this, and I love how disturbing it is for a lot of people (especially those who only read the title)! We think we write to remember, but it's really the act of letting go as the article gets into as a theory, that really lets th

Is the wording accurate here? This is essentially the only source besides the untranslated article and the machine translated version sounds confusing (whether it applies to what is created by AI or what can be consumed in training).

Meta's reach is gigantic, their data is detailed and expansive. You're actually paying less on average when spending on Meta platforms than you are elsewhere, and likely getting more back. This is why companies are comfortable wit

Yeah they track quite a lot of bits of data for users. It's the very reason why most new users are found bemoaning how annoying it is to start posting on reddit. It's your email, social account, ip/location, browser fingerpri

There is no sane middle ground on most of reddit. There are subs where you'll get reprimanded far quicker for "annoying mods" by bothering to report anything, and then there are the other subs that are so uptight and intense

Your examples contradict your ending statement. If results are what people care about, neither of those would have value.

Right so what solutions do you have here to prevent people from using the autocomplete tool for harm?

by waboremo 3y ago
Exactly this. The magic has worn off, and simultaneously, we're coming to terms with the reality that no model can exist in isolation. So changes made, like getting it to not create false rumors about people, affect the rest of the sys
