You place a fine if the ship arrives too soon at the destination. There are still ways to cheat the system, e.g. make an undocumented stop, but compliance should be the easiest way. Of course it would also increase the cost of shipping as you either need more ships to reach the same tonnes of goods per year and/or pay the captains more since they are at sea for longer.

They still are the fastest and the most secure, and Manifest v3 is faster than uBlock Origin since no javascript code needs to run.

They do that because it works.

I remember clearly an interview of a very famous IT billionaire going this way:

- What's the most annoying myth about you?
- A myth migh be that I'm the most generous philantropist of all time. [...But] I havent' sacrified my time or economic well being the same way lots of unamed, amazing people do. So they're the worlds best philantropists.

This is the least subtle humble-brag of all time. "People says I'm so incredibly amazing. But they are wrong. There are out there more amazing people." is gotta be next to the job interview answer "my biggest weakness is that I work too much" in the BS book.

But the reactions to the interview are still, to this day, "this person is so humble", "he is such a good man", etc.

Suggesting a browser because it has adblock preinstalled is like recommending a specific Linux distribution because it comes with LibreOffice out of the box: it doesn't matter for anyone who can click 2-3 buttons.

What matters to me is the part I can't influence that easily, and I simply prefer Firefox because it's not based on Chrome. Not something many browser developers can say nowadays.

I had a colleague who came over from Norway - not known as a center of culinary excellence - and complained about the bread. I suggested that he should find a Jewish or Italian bakery, which he did, and then he was happy. It kind of sucks that decent bread is only available here in specialty stores and not alongside everything else in the grocery store, but that's how it is.

P.S. This advice was hyper-local (near Boston). Just a few miles away, I'm sure there are great Armenian bakeries and I would have suggested those. In some other city, who even knows? Local patterns vary, but there always seems to be someone filling this niche.

I was never a corporate manager, but my impression is that "deep thinking" in management happens in Word documents.

Personally, I am a fan of inline-quoting, but only when I know I'm talking 1:1 or with a fixed group of people. If new people are expected to be included down the line - as is frequent with conversations that seek approval or feedback in a company - then I default to top-post to preserve the history of the conversation.

I don't know how a deep engineering conversation looks when written down, because I'm yet to see any in a work setting; whenever a problem approaches any interesting complexity, someone can't handle the complexity and calls for video or IRL meeting.

If there's a culture problem, I think the "maker" group is much smaller than the group of engineers. I personally blame webmail (GMail and others), which by virtue of popularity essentially set the rules for how e-mail is supposed to work, and more importantly than defaulting to top-posting, popular webmail clients don't handle tree structure. Inline-quoting makes sense when your discussion forms a tree, and not a stream of messages.

Well, most people on the planet don't eat meat in every single meal.

I've commented on this before, but I'm Greek and our traditional cuisine has many dishes that are naturally vegan, in the sense that no meat or animal products are used in them, but nobody actually calls them, or thinks of them as vegan, only as "normal food". There's a list here, compiled by a vegan very happy to have visited Greece:

https://www.thenomadicvegan.com/the-nomadic-vegans-guide-to-...

I believe this is a common situation in many parts of the world. I thik most people eat meat only according to their needs. Especially earlier in human history, before industrial farming, meat would have been an expensive luxury for most people, who would have complemented their diet with fish, dairy and eggs, being naturally lacto- ovo- pescaterian rather than vegan, and would have eaten meat (especially beef) on special occasions like feasts and weddings and so on.

So maybe veganism is a reaction to the particular eating habbits of specific parts of the world, where meat is eaten too frequently?
> websites will go back to serving opaque binary blobs instead of HTML+CSS+JS.

they will just serve web assembly
It does kill the really effective ones like uBlock Origin by removing any ability to do heuristics, "right click to block", "IAB sized divs" and similar dynamic detection. The 30k limit is also too low. So, a bit of hyperbole, but it DOES kill the best blockers.
I'm really waiting for the postmortem. The first services down were networking/datastore, and some minutes later all the others started to fail. My hypothesis is that network failures prevented Paxos, a CP algorithm, to go forward, blocking writes.
For the entire history of the internet, there have been sites that only work properly with the dominate browser, starting with Netscape and then, famously, IE6.

I'm always confused when people imply this isn't the case or start demanding evidence. I'm bemused when they are surprised.
Did anyone actually read the submission? The title is clickbait that doesn't reflect the content.

The change here moves modifying content of the webRequest to the browser from the extension. This is fundamentally more secure. Allowing third-party extensions to inspect and _modify_ arbitrary HTTP requests is nothing short of dangerous.

The new declarative API (from the article) limits such extensions to 30,000 rules. I honestly don't know what impact this will have on ad blockers. At worst it seems like ad blockers will become less effective as simple logic tells you that some rules matter more than others and the least used rules will simply be dropped.

So rather than be alarmist and use this to feed into the tired narrative that "Google is killing ad blockers because it's an advertising company" (paraphrased) we should be pushing for changes that make this workable, such as:

1. Having a higher limit than 30,000; and

2. Working on ways to condense N rules into <N rules. There must be ways we can be more expressive so that we don't require as many rules, no?

I honestly don't like the fact that I have to give a third party developer so much privileged access to run an ad blocker and I'm surprised anyone else is. Extensions can be compromised.

Thanks for the tip. I've seen some FUD around Brave and their browser but even if true they are still better than where Google is going.
I don't think sites will bake ads into the blob. It's too much server-side hassle. The equivalent today is just serving the ads from your own domain, and precious few people do that. The other option is a binary blob making a network request to an ad server, which can be blocked.
I’m sure another way would be to start looking into accounts that repeatedly check out books and fail to return them.

> 20% increase in the world's trading inventory

Which will most probably cause the producers to want to reduce that inventory by not producing that much anymore, which will further ease the pressure on the environment. Yeah, that will most probably raise some prices, but as a species we can't have our cake and eat it at the same time, at some point we do have to price in the externalities.

Keep in mind that not all advertisement is made with the intent of the ad watcher clicking the ad and purchasing a product immediately. The larger brands especially do a lot of share of mind advertising where the goal is simply to make you aware of / remind you of the brand.

This is a weird rule for people uploading videos.

You can't just decide to show ads on your videos. Youtube requires you to meet certain guidelines. The last time I checked you need 4,000+ hours of view time each year and 1,000+ subscribers to be allowed to show ads on your videos.

That means smaller channels who have limited audiences would have no way to avoid termination because Youtube is blocking themselves from generating revenue from that channel due to their own monetization rules.
This is classic modern Google. "Advocate" probably means he is advocating for the Chrome Extensions Team and not the Chrome extensions. That would allow him to have an internally consistent world model and is probably how greater corporate Google interprets the title.

So communicating what the team is doing to the outside world, not defending the utility of the extensions.
Enforcement at destination countries is far too simplistic to assume. There are too many countries who just won't care, for example Somalia, Haiti, many in S.E. Asia, and many others where a bribe will suffice.

Then there are a lot of question marks regarding the jurisdiction of a destination country when the ship is flagged elsewhere. How or who enforces the penalty on this ship? And if such a penalty is applied, the ship owners simply change name and move to a different country's flag.

This is exactly the same problem with illegal fishing. Perpetrators are getting away with it because effective policing is not happening.
Makes sense for them to kill it now before the majority gets a taste of what it could be like.

This of course. Why is anyone in the least surprised that Google doesn't want the ads that fund Chrome (and everything else they do) to be blocked by the users of Chrome. Shall Google fund our nice things (like Firefox, Chrome, gmail, google maps, etc etc) with hopes and dreams in place of cold hard cash? The audacity.

Clearly an unpopular opinion here, but anyway: I'm happy to let a few ads slip through (which I will happily ignore anyhow) in exchange for the possibility of a future where I dont have to drive a car to get places.
> Obscure and/or old archive footage which usually doesnt get that many views is one of the best things about YT.

and one of the costs youtube bears, since by definition they can't make money off those videos, but has to pay for storage.

I dont know if there's a solution - perhaps non-commercialized accounts can't upload more than X gigabytes of vidoes, or be forced to have ads? Or you (the channel owner) pay for the storage?
I see lot of them in people’s front yards, interestingly enough.
This is funny to read as where I live (Germany) banks have been slowly migrating away from SMS-based verification to app-based code generators that in turn require one-time authorization via physical mail.

And we're generally lagging behind when it comes to digital solutions, so I would expect other countries to be ahead of the curve and no longer using SMS for anything important.
I’ve done testing and at some point more memory just changes how long/large the GC cycles are. More memory can cause larger hiccups when mods are leaking memory.
It resembles academia. The company is very penny wise and pound foolish, toxic behaviors aren’t managed, the (5!) founders are basically dead weight, and hours are expected to bleed into evenings and weekends. There’s an inversion of resources- the more work you have, the less you will be supported by the company. The people who flourish tend to have academic backgrounds and this perpetuates the cycle. Good luck to your friend!
Oh no, he doesn't think they are stupid, just that they don't know the difference between browsers. If my mechanic mounted a new transmission or something that wasn't the same brand as the one mounted before, and told me "it's the new version", I couldn't care less as long as it worked as intended. I don't know anything about transmissions, so from my point of view I have no way of knowing if what he's telling me is the truth or not, I just trust him to make my car work again.
Really? That's funny, I always thought businesses hated the idea of communism.
I perceive Google Cloud to have more outages than other providers, given the rate these announcements are posted on HN versus say, AWS. Is this fair to say, or is the GCP team just more honest than others?

Sooner we move off ad renvenue based products the better. Surely there's a way to get people to pay a tiny bit to get great quality products that don't fuck them in the arse.

I’d argue that YouTube is a for-profit business. They have every right, within legal bounds, to do whatever makes economic sense to them.

If you want an archive, go with archive.org. But even then, nothing is free. If somebody thinks a footage deserves to be archived and preserved, somebody needs to pay for the cost anyhow, e.g. via donations.

I'm in the process of switching as much as possible to Firefox. I now use Firefox Mobile on my smartphone, and my new laptop doesn't even get Chrome. And in many ways, it's been a breath of fresh air. Firefox gives my much more control over my privacy, and even recommends some extensions to improve it further. A couple of websites are sadly broken on my Firefox setup, but I can live without them.

I want to get back to the content-driven web rather than this ad-driven web we have now. I want to read what people want to share, not what people think will get them ad clicks.

Contrary to what some people seem to believe I really don't think this has anything to do with trying to ban people who use adblock or the like. YouTube actively allows for adblock, if they didn't want people blocking ads they could just splice the ads directly into the video and stop transmission of the actual video content.

This is most likely just a random change that gets blown way out of proportion, it's not like Google hasn't banned people for any BS reason they could come up with before.
> So rather than be alarmist and use this to feed into the tired narrative that "Google is killing ad blockers because it's an advertising company"

That’s not alarmist, it’s the obvious truth. As a user I should have complete control over what runs on my machine. I don’t need Google “protecting” me (by breaking ad blockers). Google is the single most destructive force in the tech industry today. Very much like Microsoft in the 90s. We should resist their attempts to embrace, extend, extinguish and we should be insulted that they couch these changes in marketing speak that pretends to be pro-user when it’s the exact opposite.
It's very likely that if the said small channels are indeed too small to be allowed to monetize, then they would fall under the not profitable accounts even if they were allowed to monetize.
He means rhyming as in words ending in the same vowel+final consonants. Japanese syllables are very simple, and typically lack final consonants (except for the nasal phoneme n/m).

There are two aspects to meter; the placement of stressed syllables and the placement of syllables of different lengths itself. Actually English as opposed to Greek and Romance languages that are not French has stress patterns that are highly dependent on the phrase rather than on syllable position in words, and so traditional forms are felt to be quite artificial in English, and perhaps this encouraged the development of free meter in modern English poetry.

Anyway, the stress aspect of meter I don't think features greatly in Japanese poetry. On the other hand, meter still features prominently in Japanese standard poetic forms; are characterized as having a set number of syllables in each line, but renku looks instead at the number of morae (short syllables have one; long have two).
