doesn't it seem like the biggest knowledge and traffic theft in the history of the internet? when other sites giving you information from other sources it is illegal, but when it goes through this prediction machine, it is sort of OK?

it smells funny

for some reason I remember him being related to YUI, but I learned JS from Douglas Crockford, one of the best lectures from the old days of JS.

maybe you right, but it was weird that everything else was working perfect. rendering engines, games, other graphic things...

that is why I commented, since was disappointed a bit

I'm not sure, it might have changed since, but my personal experience was different.

Tried using zed on Linux (pop os, Nvidia) several months ago, was terribly slow, ~1s to open right click context window.

I've spent some time debugging this, and turns out that my GPU drivers are not the best with my current pop os release, but I still don't understand how it might take so long and how GPU is related to right clicking.

Switched back to emacs, love every second. :)

I'm not sure if title referring to actual development speed or the editor performance.

p.s. I play top games on Linux, all is fine with my GPU & drivers.

There is a post which was flagged twice that was submitted by another user.

That is the reason I actually found the post and was amazed it was flagged so soon, when I got back to HN post after reading it. (15 minutes).

the post does not discuss politics but a certain member of the new team and some of his past, and maybe future.

re 1: why would somebody so respected in the cybersec community go after politics all of a sudden and not simply do that from curiosity? also, why would there be only one of those posts? I would expect more in this case.

I am asking simply to understand, I am not from the U.S and really am not involved in politics.

edit: question to pt. 1 in parent

the only thing worth using LLMs here for is the cover letter.

maybe I'm wrong but turning HTML into structured data example by using an LLM is bug prone and lazy.

the real challenge parts are pretty basic as well..

don't get me wrong I am not judging automation, but using LLMs for these trivial tasks is IMO a waste of time as a software engineer.

I think I have been misread, the whole point of my comments is to realize that anyone can staple engineering and make you think this is something someone actually thought and went through, which is usually, not.

nothing about them...

if I as a user want something to _correct_ me, well and good. but the browser should never make those assumptions for me. it might actually work well with ISPs, but not browsers.

what about websites which actually make a _pun_ on words and are trying to be funny? switching one letter / word, etc...

not everything is serious and not everything (I think nothing, actually) should be decided by some one else. IMO.

What trademark exactly? just curious...

what prevents me (legally) to purchase a domain, make it orange, and manually aggregate news in it?

Assuming the content is not scraped, and no icons / logos are copied, can there be legal actions followed and if so on what basis?

I am currently using nordvpn and my subscription is going to expire pretty soon. I have been thinking to switch to mullvad for some time.

apart from the price (nordvpn is cheaper) can someone please help me make a decision if to switch or stay with nord?

based on the comments in the thread I assume mullvad is better in terms of privacy, security and probably more.

in addition, I don't use streaming services so the netflix selling point does not apply to me.

thanks in advance!

One thing I have learnt very well from rewriting a legacy PHP code written by amateur teams is: never ever nest ternary operations.

maybe it's only me, but it's really hard to reason about this.

lol, I am only using GR for the title + image which is downloaded when you post the URL into notion.

never even considered being influenced by random people from the internet, unless this is someone I know.
