    Correct. Some extensions still offer tools via the share dropdown though. This extension could add a “Open without AMP” option in there.

    I hate it as much as everyone else, but last time I stripped AMP I got a useless paywalled adridden website so I ended up just sharing the AMP URL

    The point here is that this can be used on iPhone, so there was not already something there.

    Apollo is the answer. Reddit’s properties are a dumpster fire. Heck even the desktop version regularly starts playing some random video I scrolled past a minute ago… good luck find…

    I happen to use both bing and DDG occasionally and the results are plain bad so I end up using Google anyway. I should try the opposite though: when Google SERP is useless, try oth…

    In my father’s hands, the iPhone shoots better photos than his Sony A6000, so it depends on how entry level we go.

    Not to mention the inefficiency.

    You’re right, my estimate for a short surgery in a private Thai hospital last Monday was “10k/11k THB excluding fees.” I walked out of the hospital 2 hours later having paid 9.1k T…

    By law the hotel has to register your arrival online, as a foreigner. Obviously this is easily skirted by having another person do the check in and you arriving later. I've also st…

    Wow, that is amazing. The picture dictionary is incredibly useful when learning a language and it's the first time I see it, in a general-purpose tool too! When learning a language…

    lol. Sorry there’s nothing else to add, you’re just proving my point. On HN.

    This is like the comment “Who needs the iPhone 13’s faster CPU” I read yesterday on a random forum, except you’re on HN and you should probably know better. The reason is simple: I…

    I don’t know why you would say that. Excel is democratizing tool for programming. It’s a true WYSIWYG for databases, calculations, plotting, and more. And it’s just a regular app t…

    Currying makes it implicit, but it's the same thing. const one = curriedSum(1) one(2) is the same as const one = sum.bind(null, 1) one(2) with the exception that the latter is expl…

    I think details did in fact replace many of those checkbox hacks, but people also say it’s still the wrong tool for accordions and such, which confuses me.

    Probably not. A few requests surely got cached, but the vast majority likely did not. jQuery has its own official CDN URL so that probably had a chance at being deduplicated.

    It already exists, but it’s mostly about hacks that aren’t very accessible, like using checkboxes to simulate interactivity.

    True but also the amount of code React requires (even putting the library itself aside) is ridiculous. I’m working on a React project (but not directly on React) and the file lengt…

    Is this sarcasm? I wish publishers gave a damn about page weight. I’m sure some big names do, but most don’t, and it’s easy to see if you open any monetized website at all.

    I want to wake up at 8:00 regardless of my timezone. I don’t want to wake up at “8:00 NYC” when I’m in Europe nor should I need to adjust the alarm every time I change timezone.
