The full title (”Age verification for social media – the beginning of the end for a free internet?”) was too long to submit as is, hence the slight editorialization.

Interestingly there seems to be a few quirks for twitter.com, but none for x.com. I assume that'll lead to some regressions?

Recent? Unless you mean the notification, sending yourself a message has been possible for a long time. Just to make sure I know what I'm talking about I checked the conversation h…

And yet I still can not get any of the more "advanced" features (like predictive text) for my native language keyboard. It's been, what, at least five years(?) since predictive tex…

It is not, and doesn't even try to be, a Reddit replacement, but https://tildes.net has impressed me with its quality of discussion. More akin to HN, but with a subreddit-like syst…

As a metal music listener with fond memories of Guitar Hero, I’ve enjoyed Ragnarock a ton. You play as the drummer on a viking boat, hitting the notes (similar to GH) to the tune o…

Not sure what your source for ”doesn’t support 3rd party software” is, so it’s unclear what that actually means, but there are numerous examples on Andreas’ YouTube channel about p…

I scanned the last couple months of their blog posts and could not find anything to support that claim. The docs or pricing page don’t seem to indicate anything like that either. T…

I think the origin might be ”[ter]minal file [e]xplorer”, though the author might correct me here. ”Tere” is also, perhaps unsurprisingly, used in Finnish.

I think that is meant to be parsed as: Just like you can't check if the fridge light is on without opening the door (which of course turns it on), it's hard to know if a system is …

Some Minecraft mods add items that force the game to keep certain chunks loaded. From the casual "Can't you just" I assume the parent meant those. It is however also possible, but …

Aside, but for those like me who can't help but wonder: EBT (I believe) stands for electronic benefit transfer, apparently an electronic payment method issued by welfare department…

The Battle of B-R was surpassed recently by the Battle of M2-XFE, the largest (by ISK value destroyed) battle of the ongoing world war. While B-R saw a total of ~80 Titans die, in …

At a quick glance it seems like some React component is constantly re-rending. Quick glance in this case: took a couple second snapshot on the Performance tab and saw a lot of Reac…

I tested it with my native language (both the text on the website and the browser UI). The autofill interface did not show up. Then again Finnish has anyway been a second class cit…

I tested it with the ”Welcome back” equivalent in Finnish, German, French and Chinese. None of those languages caused the autofill interface to show up. Safari is in Finnish on my …

Seems like their Content Security Policy should block those from executing as "unsafe-inline" is not allowed.

It seems they are fetching the comments from the Hacker News Algolia index. Curiously they seem to un-sanitize the comment content before inserting it to the page DOM as one of the…

I believe the commenter meant that only the build server should be able to write to the build artifact repository, so ”write access from the build server” would be correct.
