why does an API that only accepts json need me to specify in a header that it’s json.
just assume it’s json. you’re gonna parse and validate it anyway.
They don’t need to justify it because Americans who are upset don’t possess the wherewithal to hold them accountable.
Because nobody uses mongo for the reasons you listed. They use redis, dynamo, scylla or any number of enriched KV stores.
Mongo has spent its entire existence pretending to be a SQL database by poorly reinventing everything you get for free in postgres or mysql or cockroach.
can we setup a polymarket for the number of days until trump blames offshore windmills for hurricanes
They wanted to, but they’re still waiting for the IDE itself to simply load.
Wait, are you talking about cloud providers or LLMs?
President Trump explicitly signed an Executive Order to defund public media: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/05/endi...
or state surveillance is fine, or that they don’t exploit migrant workers, or that their currency manipulation and financial repression were/are good.
can you clarify if you’re talking about China or the US?
This is the same AG who sued Tylenol over autism. While we can applaud the effort (broken clock theory?), it’s all but guaranteed he’s getting paid for helping another entity. Corruption is on the menu and fully expected these days.
Sure, it’s a bug they can fix. But it’s more the setup itself that’s the issue. For example clickhouse’s HTTP interface would normally require user/pass auth and not have access to all privileges. Clickhouse has a table engine that maps to local processes too (eg select from a python process you pipe stdin into).
No need for postgres if you have a fully authenticated user.
I can’t wait to take first place and get awarded my own peace prize
is this just a janky summary cause you added zero new viewpoints

The NY address is a virtual office.

The DE address is a virtual office plus coworking facility.
because devs will have no clue how their systems work, the only ones who do will be LLMs, gatekept behind an ever-increasing cost-per-usage.
We had the same fear mongering in the 80’s and early 90’s about TV. And in the 20’s and 30’s about radio programs.
Same shit, new generation.
You should read about Project Cloudflare
what framework is being utilized for computer use here?
Incidentally nobody in Russia can read that article because they already banned the BBC and 80 other EU media outlets. And Facebook. And Instagram. And Twitter. And Discord.
This is standard Russian censorship of western media and news.
Yeah I don’t buy this article. Something is off. I run vastly more TPS on a very barebones MySQL install over the network.
Edit: Keep downvoting. I hate this fucking site.
It helps provide the therapy bot used by struggling sailors who are questioning orders and reducing "hey this isn’t what i signed up for" mental breakdowns.
CEO is an autistic dumbass who isn't good at conveying his thoughts. What he could have said: "While we have the best protection of any gaming or social media platform today, any amount of predatory behavior is an unacceptable problem. Roblox has increased from 20M DAUs to 150M DAUs over the last 5 years and the absolute number of these unfortunate incidents has remained flat: an 80% decline in incidence rate. In this way, we view it also as an opportunity: How can we can continue to scale the platform while getting the incidence rate to zero?"
I sure as shit did my best to monitor and lock down that horrible thing
How much of that "horrible thing" is due to a handful of youtube videos you've seen as opposed to first-hand experiences? What if you found out that the very well-produced youtube videos which regularly attack Roblox have the exact same agenda as the US/UK laws you're opposing?
is complicit in allowing this type of abuse to continue.
I'm complicit? Get fucked you piece of shit.
admitting to contacting several kids a day for a year.
Have you ever played online games? "Contacting several kids a day" is how internet chat works. I'm sure if it was up to you kids would only be able to play single player games and stay inside, god forbid they get struck by lightning or eaten by a polar bear.
What do you want gaming to do? Have a checkbox where you swear you're not a pedophile or something? That's on-par for most of these idiotic suggestions of how people seem to fucking think the internet and gaming works, and what sort of actual solution is viable.
Roblox tracks all the chat and hands it over to law enforcement and NCMEC. They restrict chat for . They give ample parental controls to limit chat/friends/interactions. Now they're adding AI-powered age validation (which I think is a terrible idea) just to appease more people like you who can't think critically about the risk, nor apparently have the ability to teach your kids "hey maybe don't talk to creepy strangers who want you to send them images and give them your home address?"
So about three per year, out of 112 million users? That's a far better track record than the Boy Scouts of America or the Roman Catholic Church.
Yep. I’ve not witnessed something so wildly over exaggerated since D&D was responsible for widespread satanic cults in the 80’s.
How is an OS setting going to protect a child from the realities that people on the internet, especially anonymous people, may be creepy?
every conversation of note here on HN is heavily manipulated too. any discussion platform where accounts can promote or demote other messages are all subject to rampant manipulation and propaganda.
It absolutely categorically is.
We’ll get downvoted but fully agreed. Because HN isn’t a place for constructive communication that lies outside the approved groupthink.
