I'm probably an outlier, but as someone working a non-physical job, I have been talking about how I personally would still keep working and doing jobs even if all of my basic needs…

I think it's more nuanced than that. Obviously countries have differences on how aligned the people and the press are, but there's also the aspect of how highly educated the people…

Any new advancements regarding Rust borrow checking and allowing new code is always a very challenging exercise, as people have already accustomed to the "that style of code doesn'…

I've got a stripped down installation of win11 in a vm that has Servo as its only browser if there's ever a need to open a website in it. It's something!

I'd like to suggest that this messaging is actually the inverse of virtue signaling, I.E. "icky signaling" for snowflakes. Keeps people at bay who are icked by the message.

You brought out a good point, it was . It's just a statistical anomaly where the collective thought was stuck in a local minima, where they thought that the sacrifices had a correl…

That's a personal information database and making one without consent of the people detailed is _super_ illegal in Europe. There's a few examples of entities like Jehovah's witness…

I haven't written up an article about it yet, but from a cursory look of the legal stuff this only affects private citizens and could be circumvented by setting up a shell company …

I'm not sure that if this is an obvious question that has been gone through already, but have any of the death threats relating to Rust stuff actually been "verified" or is it just…

If you want to, you can report any vulnerabilities to the Finnish Cyber Security Centre and they'll handle all of the reporting and mediating the issue with the affected party. You…

For the generic selector naming I'd suggest "cascade selector/selectors" as that gives a hint of the origins and describes the actual function of it pretty well.

But in the real world, for maximal battery savings and therefore UX, routing any notification data via APNS is recommended. Fortunately you can choose the payload by yourself and j…

It's good until some unregulated electronic device creates interference that makes some poor guys pacemaker act up and kills them.

It definitely is relevant here, buries the lede and tells that you're trying to skirt the HN guidelines. Nothing exists in a vacuum and the surrounding context can and IMO *should*…

I've been toying with an idea of creating a JS runtime that tries to run all code two times, one which runs all identifying information inside a runtime that has any network API's …

archive.today has a documented history of altering the archived content, as such they immediately lose the veil of protection of a service of "public good" in my books. Just my 2 ¢…

Not sure if you're talking about Adnauseam, but this is basically the lawful evil version of the extension you're describing. https://adnauseam.io/ Adnauseam actually clicks on eve…

Ain't so different from a severed piece of a reproductive organ as a logo of a company :D (I'm talking about an apple tree and it's fruit)

Assuming US, I think that the gov't can't actually compel speech from an entity e.g. force to keep signing the canary. Warrant canaries are the way entities can circumvent the narr…

Seems that every intelligence agency is still in the dark about Väinämöinen, lmao.

Duplicate, comments hither? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46536753

Also related, not a DB but an incremental computation engine: https://github.com/salsa-rs/salsa This can be found in things like the rust-analyzer and other actual compilers.

Huh, this seems like a cool optimization problem that I gotta dig in later. As sweeping was mentioned, there's an argument to be made that we could/should optimize for: - longest p…

After seeing a cool demo of using precomputed blue noise with thresholding to approximate transparency in shaders. I'm quite interested about using the same technique for colour mi…

Do note that unfortunately any future devices by Sony are just phones by other manufacturers that are just Sony branded. Sony stopped their first party device manufacturing, so you…
