I do not believe "some voters" will motivate the politicians. Instead it is the bread manufacturers, farms, importers, and every other large business with enough weight to convince…

My idea from decades ago, which I'd love to see implemented, is to capture the height information of the painting and reconstruct it in the browser using physically based rendering…

Thanks for the suggestion, it's neat that pihole maintains a git repo like this. I didn't get a chance to try it out though, I just installed from scratch.

I like Pi-hole, but pi@pihole:~ $ pihole -up [i] Checking for updates... [i] Pi-hole Core: up to date [i] Web Interface: up to date [i] FTL: up to date [] Everything is up to date!…

Is there an index of all the pages on this site?

The question isn't "what should all([]) return", it's "why does all([]) return True". I think the answer is "because that's what the simplest implementation returns", not "because …

I see many complicated explanations for "why all([]) behaves this way" that justify the behavior as good because of logical or mathematical purity. I am implying that these explana…

Epicycles. Experience leaves me inclined to believe the code precedes the definition. def all(iterable): for element in iterable: if not element: return False return True https://g…

I'd really like to see people post screenshots comparing Google and DDG results for cases where they consider one better than the other.

I have 960 fps video of some LED bulbs in my house. It's very apparent that some bulbs do not flicker (perceptibly), some flicker at 120Hz, and some flicker at 60Hz. At night I can…

Wow, SSD prices bounced back after December. I think most people were (and still are) expecting $100/TB to be the new baseline. https://camelcamelcamel.com/product/B078DPCY3T?conte…

The last application I saw was using micro Doppler signal recognition to determine if someone has fallen down. Consider a nursing home or hospital bathroom where cameras would be c…

It's worse than the author described. Google won't even sort by date correctly. I ran into this problem years ago and it still exists. Example: https://www.google.com/search?q=wher…

Maybe Mozilla can add something like this to Firefox, but for websites that break when using adblockers.

Sometimes when using Google News it looks like the news site has loaded, but the browser still displays the Google URL. Does anyone know what is going on? It's obnoxious when I wan…

I like the text underlining options. But I wish the default CSS styling for tags used text-decoration-skip-ink: none; .

I'm not interested in posting it on HN (though that is a good way to improve ranking on Google). It's a small static website with a political theme. The title is fairly unique, but…

I'm glad to see growing awareness concerning plastic in clothing. The article mentions problems with cotton production as well. With clothing I feel the same way I do about food, a…

I'm glad to see DDG growing in popularity, largely because Google won't place my website in search results. Bing does, DDG does, Yahoo does, but Google does not (unless I explicitl…

It's also possible to force reader mode, for sites where Firefox doesn't want to display the icon. Append this to the beginning of the url: about:reader?url=
