"extension content scripts have traditionally been able to fetch cross-origin data from any origins listed in their extension's permissions, regardless of the origin that the content script is running within. As part of a broader Extension Manifest V3 effort to improve extension security, privacy, and performance, these cross-origin requests in content scripts will soon be disallowed."

I once worked for a Cruise Company for some months. I really am shocked at how naive I was back then, when I applied and worked there.

Back then I had no idea how bad this form of travel is for the environment, for the visited cities, for the people working below deck, and so on.

The people I worked with in the main office of the company were really energetic, loved their product, had a great time launching ship after ship (every year a new ship was launched). It was great working with people who loved what they were doing. Compared to other jobs I had till then. I was there when the new hyped prototype was being put into service. Quite an interesting time. We were allowed to test travel on the new ship. It was a cool experience.

From a purely hedonistic perspective. Yeah it felt nice sitting in the sauna, ten decks above see at 6am in the morning and looking out over the waves. It was purely relaxing.

But from a more conscious perspective it was doing everything I could to help destroy this world - and I was so abusing the lower deck people. The ones never being seen by guests. They work horrible shifts, are employed with contracts from the tax heaven states the ships are being registered in.

I was an employee of the same company - but I had massive employment protections and laws governing how long I work, what is considered overtime, and so on. The served me, made my bed, put coffee on my table. They prepared my food - but they were third or fourth class "citizens" on this ship.

I am ashamed looking at it nowadays.
Stopped using Firefox a while ago (recently). For a company so pro-privacy, they sure do have no problems with pushing 3rd party advertising content through their product.

Single quotes are slightly less noisy.

"this", "that", "and", "the", "other"

vs

'this', 'that', 'and', 'the', 'other'

However, in Ruby, PHP, Groovy, and JavaScript single quotes have actual functional advantages, either through simpler syntax abilities, or by not requiring escaping double quotes for HTML/XML.
> Esperanto is a language where you can communicate with people that don't speak English ;)

Both claims are ridiculous. Have you ever met a single person in your life who was fluent or at least good conversational in Esperanto but could not speak English? To say that learning Esperanto will provide you with a solid base for learning Mandarin is about as plausible as saying that learning Biochemistry will provide you with a solid base for learning Mandarin.

Learning Esperanto might be a great hobby and way to find like minded people, but the return of investment for unrelated, completely practical pursuits is highly negative. If you want to learn Mandarin, just study Mandarin.
I have aphantasia and this seems quite obvious to me.
Although I wouldn't say it shapes ourself but just emphasizes what is on your mind, where you would like to see yourself, preparing yourself. You can think about how you might act in a specific situation or reaffirm some beliefs.

Negative daydreams also shows you parts of yourself and your environment that do not align with your worldview or experiences that you haven't let go off emotionaly yet.

But the underlying feeling and thoughts are there anyway, no matter if you daydream or not.

Hah, what a simple-minded argument

Are you seriously suggesting consumers of Google Ads (entities, worth on average, a few thousand euros) will go to court against Google (an 800bn dollar company)?

Consumer contracts are enforceable due to reputational concerns and goodwill, not the legal system. The legal system is an expensive means for large corporations and the govt to extract money from each other.
Marketing tools are damaging your SEO
> It's still hard to believe that after paying a few hundreds of dollars for a new OS

I haven't checked, but are the ads in the enterprise versions? Otherwise, I'd guess that the vast majority of home consumers have an OEM key that came with their laptop or PC (or upgraded from Win7), and they didn't pay hundreds of dollars for. While the price of Win10 is included in some way in the price of the device, it wouldn't be nearly as much. Also, from what I remember, 1903 has gotten rid of most of the ads on a fresh installation, so it seems to be improving.

edit: Actually, I didn't realize there were actual ad notifications at all in Win10. Never seen them before. Maybe region/setting dependent? I only meant the games and other third party stuff that show up in the start menu.
Ask HN: Cool math-topics for small children?
For some time I am pondering to start something like a math-club for my daughter and her friends, in the spirit of Zvonkin's Math from 3 to 7 [1]

Thing is, creating math-puzzles is hard work so I'd like to know if some of you have resources you'd use :)

My 5 year old seems to like when I discuss math with her, but when I was looking at my local library, I mostly found materials either for older kids (ie. teaching them to solve systems of linear equations with word puzzles after they already know addition and multiplication) or these were really focus on the drill of counting numbers, and that seemed boring. The best book I so far found in a bookshop was Bedtime Math [3], because it at least has interesting trivia ccompanying the word problems, and some are appropriate for a pre-schooler. But it still is mostly counting.

We both liked the story of exponential (factorial?) growth in Anno's mysterious multiplying jar [2] (damn, I have to comb through the rest of those suggestions on that page)

My goal is mostly to puzzle and entertain so if you have anything you have used, I'd like to know :)

BigQuery is /terrific/, for in-house analytics. It would very likely not be appropriate for backing a SaaS, at $5 per terabyte scanned.

I would suggest the OP is just fine with Postgres for awhile. They can shard it when needed.

Then eventually they can either get more sophisticated with Postgres sharding, or move to something like TiDB, clickhouse, or another event store.
Also in 1968, the french singer — and hobbyist mathematician — Boby Lapointe ¹ proposed a graphical representation and pronunciation system for hexadecimal numbers, named bibi-binary ². The pronunciation part is based on the combinations of 4 consonants (HBKD) with 4 vowels (OAEI). It's probably less practical than a system relying on similarities with words for native numbers, but it was probably more of an artsy experiment and it produces shorter (and maybe funnier) results.

Camille Paglia is also a global warming denier, which is the sort of error that should give you cause to not only doubt everything she says but to use her as a contrarian indicator.
"I think it creates more misconceptions about what the mission of the X-37B is and could lead to more international concerns that it's some type of weapons platform," Weeden said. "I think that works against U.S. interests because it will create more diplomatic problems for the U.S. when it tries to point out Russian and Chinese 'unusual behavior in space' and push for discussions on space norms of behavior."

In short, "it gives Russia and China one more talking point about how the U.S. is the one 'weaponizing' space, even if that's not true," he said.

That's a huge potential downside. Like the Soviets believing in US first strike intent. Having this craft do odd things only reinforces belief the US is not operating in good faith at all times. And this, when manned spaceflight to the iss depends on international cooperation still.

> require their usage to occur under medical supervision

This only really works for recreational use, not medical use. Being observed multiple times per day could well be just as restricting as the pain, so there is still an opportunity for diversion/misuse.

Indeed. Not only past transaction history but future transaction history as well.
My experience has been that Fedora does better at "just works" than Ubuntu, over the working life of the installation. Ubuntu may install easily, but it builds up weird stuff over time - thing randomly crashing, stuff not working in weird ways after updates. Fedora just keeps on trucking.

+1 to Cinnamon - AFAICT it's the best way to preserve a classic desktop-style desktop, rather than having a desktop which is trying to be a giant mobile phone.
I moved to Finland from the UK, and I've been struggling with Finnish for the past few years. But I find the process fascinating, especially now that I'm helping raise a bilingual child.

Currently our boy hears English almost solely from me, and brief moments of TV. Everybody else around him speaks Finnish, and despite that he's fully capable of understanding both his mother in Finnish, and me in English. His speach is an adorable mixture of both "More leipä", "minä haluan jumping in puddles", etc.
But that's assuming the conclusion!

The whole point of gender studies is the idea that biology is not destiny, especially in social interaction. The roles we play and the relationships we have with each other aren't a mere clockwork expression of our chromosomes. They are far more memetic instead.

You can't point to a spot on the Y chromosome that is responsible for unequal pay.

Edit: I know it's frowned on to complain about downvotes, but would people at least try to understand what the nature and purpose of gender studies is before dismissing it?
It's a fair point, we're working on making our service carbon neutral :)

In my opinion, the conscious thoughts you have are just echoes of your mind.
When you "talk to yourself" you already know what you are going to say, you might as well just stop as soon as you notice doing that.
Yes, this is much better because you can bring the device to someone with experience who can quickly and cheaply swap out the part.
I have to admit that I fail to see any connection between that quote and the thing you wrote about sexual fantasies. Also, that thing about sexual fantasies... is it not obvious? Does anyone need to read a book to discover it? I might be missing something and I want to be corrected if that is the case but so far it seems like one of those cases when famous authors write something so vague or even empty that people project their own discoveries into it and get affirmative pleasure from that.
> It used to be that the money spent on that advertisement went to a German advertisement company

It sounds to me like the problem is that the German economy failed to produce a Google competitor or, at least, a decent local German online advertising network that the German consumer would want to use. So, now they have a problem that they're trying to solve with taxation instead of innovation. This won't work, it just creates barriers to international trade in global world. It is 19th century economics.

> have over local companies by not needing to pay taxes at all

That is incorrect. They pay their taxes in their home countries. Why should they be penalized extra over local to Germany companies by having to pay double tax: once at home and once in that country?
> It's not useful to look back and say, for example, if you put money into X stock at Y time you'd beat the market. You can't go back in time so it's not useful.

It's not only not useful, it's totally obvious some things will always beat the market. "Beating the market" is really just "beating the average". If there's nothing that beats the average, then it means that all stocks do exactly the same thing...

But yes like you said finding things that beat the market in hindsight certainly isn't very useful unless you can learn some specific strategy (e.g. insider information) that was used and employ it yourself (if you choose).
Integration of products and services doesn't mean you have to develop those products yourself. Tesla is already working with Panasonic and LG for their panels and batteries, so I'm not sure what you mean.

Exactly:

"We value your privacy"

Click "Options" or whatever. Almost everything seems turned of (I guess it is an attempted dark pattern where they want me to believe it is off by default.)

Click "Third parties". See an somewhat complete list of shady "mainstream" tracker companies - or so I hope -there are literally hundreds of companies on that list, I counted by copying and pasting into a spreadsheet :-]

So much for valuing my privacy. Then again I guess it can be read to mean they value taking our privacy away.
So you conveniently ignore funds for research, subsidies, as well as oversight and regulation.
Thankfully, it seems the store is improving slowly.

I think the Windows Store is incredibly important. Worked as a technician for a while, and the amount of garbage people installed from random sites is mind-boggling. Or programs that hadn't been updated in five years. Non-tech people need a safe source for installing software (that also automatically updates it) and as long as the store wasn't providing a significant amount of useful software (all of which is Win32), it wasn't ever a viable solution. It might be soon.
This was implemented way before Opera changed ownership, and as far as I can see from the outside, not much has changed in this code. The main difference I see, is that they have removed the source IP from the JSON.

So, if any, they are tracking less data in that data blob after they changed ownership.

(I worked on this feature at Opera back in the days)
What I meant is that the fallout from an air burst is only made of the remnants of the warhead's casing, fission products and un-fissioned material. The extent of this fallout is limited to the mass of the weapon, and from surface knowledge I have, it's minimized in modern nuclear weapons (this fallout is essentially wasted mass and unrealized explosive potential). The end effect of this fallout is primarily raising the global cancer risk a tiny bit.

The usual thing people think of as "fallout" is the result of low-altitude detonation, where the explosion draws up dirt/dust/water vapor, makes some of that radioactive, and creates a cloud of radioactive particulates that then settles in a large area downwind of the explosion. This is the massively dangerous fallout that's usually associated with nuclear weapons.

TL;DR: air bursts != ground-level bursts, and if one doesn't know about the energy scale difference involved, it doesn't seem so dumb to ask if detonating a nuke high up in the cyclone would be helpful.
The downside of this French attitude of everyone being "just French" is that the earlier diversity of identities/languages has also been largely homogenised. Think Alsacian, Languedoc, etc.

The effect reaches well beyond France: as other countries fell in love with the model, they went after their own historical ethnic/linguistic minorities with the same determination throughout the 20th century.
Again, the assumption that fantasies are purely natural creatures of the "id" and not products of your particular culture is assuming the conclusion.

As long as there is proper support for a virtual folder, I as a user don't care. I can have a unified view of local and cloud documents.

As a developer I would settle for accurate and comprehensive documentation.
Anyone with any aesthetic sense can point out how his games are lacking visually, so it's not that presumptuous at all. The effects of his game's poor art on his ability to run a business are another matter altogether that I personally don't care about.

As for priorities, people can have different priorities, but there are a few basics that in my opinion anyone can improve at with minimal effort as long as they try. Developing an aesthetic sense for what works together on a screen and what doesn't is one of those things. It's clear this guy hasn't bothered with this and in my view that makes him a mediocre game developer, which is a kind of developer that I will not look up to if I want to improve.

>Why is it ok for games to lack a good story but not ok for them to lack good art?

This can be a very long discussion but art is the one thing that is immediately visible to anyone. In some ways it's the most important aspect of a game. I don't have the same views on code that I have on art, for instance. With code you can get away with very poor practices and you can be very pragmatic about it because bad code is not nearly as visible as bad art.
Oh yes you can: men have testosterone, so they're more aggressive, which turns out to translate to asking for more pay raises more often and changing jobs more quickly if unhappy with their pay. Hey presto, a biological basis for unequal pay. Now obviously this doesn't explain everything about unequal pay -- but it would be foolish to ignore entirely, no?
I really liked your phrase: "analog child being introduced to the digital magic".

I don't know if children in today's generation can at all be called as 'analog children'? And that plausibly is not good, overall.
I can easily imagine some bored teenagers (can even imagine a certain version of younger me doing it) blocking an empty autonomous vehicle from leaving a parking space just for kicks. I suppose coaxing other empty ones into a ditch or waterway isn't too much of a stretch either if the cars are owned by some mega-corp and become some kind of cheap public good like shopping trolleys.

As soon as it becomes a robot, a lot of the social pressure to be a good person falls away. Less so if there are people inside, but I can see empty autonomous cars being given a pretty hard time just for kicks.

A good start would be to open up more access to plans & documentation to make it easier for interested people to do so.

Better access to replacement parts is another demand you often hear around the "right to repair" movement.
That's not front running at all.

In fact it's the perceived lack of front running risk by the buyers and sellers that make Robin Hood more valuable to Market Makers.

A big institutional shareholder may very well know more than the Market Maker at the other end of the trade, that's a risk for them if the market moves against them. Robin Hood investors are far less likely to have that kind of information so there isn't the same risk that market makers will get shafted.
> use infrastructure, benefit from education, especially higher education

We established the infrastructure bit to not be true (how many times do you have to pay for the same thing?). Education: so why are students then paying tuition fees? Average UK student graduates with $45,000 debt... I am sure for 3% of revenue, Google can send their entire staff for 4 years of Ivy League college and have money leftover.
