Yes! The news content and links from them are from Wikipedia, which is why I donate a portion of revenue to them. The value I'm delivering is speed and focus, going further than Wikipedia, hence your observations from the page speed score. The design of their pages is quite busy and some articles actually take a really long time to load when they're re-built from scratch and not served up from a cache.

Regarding, "not enough", I'm currently losing money on Legible News, so if I increased the amount, I'd lose even more money. For now I consider a 10% donation generous given the current unit economics. I may raise prices to offset these loses, but I'll grandfather in people who subscribe today.

If Legible News reaches a large enough scale I'll consider switching from the current donation model to a Wikimedia enterprise subscription (https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/pricing/) or hiring my own editorial staff to put together the days headlines.

Gratuitous anime pictures are also common in 4chan tech culture, where folks just don't pay much attention to Twitter or to the pronouns fad. So you can see that either way, it just suggests a kind of non-serious/poser hedonism all around. BBS/early web culture was a lot more focused than that.
The briefcase was for situations where you'd have local copies of many smaller files, and wanted to keep the files up-to-date between multiple computers. Back in '95 it wasn't uncommon for multiple employees, pupils or family members to share a small number of computers. Many homes had none. Working straight against the floppy was too slow, but syncing everything with the briefcase once you were done would speed up the workflow.

It was you that said "our current government". I would have thought the Democratic party was in favour of a working welfare system, at least for small children.

You adoption numbers are not relevant, we are not talking about children, we are talking about newborns. Since there are apparently 2 million American couples wanting to adopt right now, and only 18000 being adopted each year, I'd say the demand is very strong.

I'm not sure what cost has to do with it, surely you are not arguing that abortion should be a way to save money by not having to give birth?

And I'm sure a lot of adoptive parents would be more than happy to bear the cost of childbirth. In a civilised country essential healthcare is of course socialised, but we are talking about the US here.
Aside from that, knowledge doesn't exist in silos. The silos are our creation to help us sort out the nigh-infinite breadth of knowledge available to us.

There's no telling if sievemaking might incidentally tie into a currently undiscovered mathematical formula that relates to the internal structure of a helpful molecule.

Nonchalantly allowing knowledge to die out universally simply because it doesn't benefit you directly now sets a dangerous precedent for the future and potentially closes doors to humanity's potential.

When looking at statistics like this, it’s somewhat unhelpful to consider the US one country. Because of the low density of the population + essentially no federal government, the US is really a few different regions with vastly different outcomes.
The obsession with identity politics, choosing actors based on their race, gender, and sexuality rather than talent, berating fans as bigots when they don't like the content, etc.
Have you heard of News as Facts? It does a better job at telling you that the news came Wikipedia and half their profit from subscriptions goes to support Wikipedia. It's also more up to date.
Login via URL ("magic link") is about as insecure as it gets. You can do worse, but have to try.

Password reuse is bad because it allows compromising one site if another one is compromised. By sending someone a URL to login via email, now you've effectively forced password reuse of their email password as the site password (because obviously, if someone gets access to email they also get access to the emailed links).
> I don't understand why NIMBYs have been taken so seriously in the US in the past 50 years. It seems like at any point in history, any local project will be opposed by somebody, no matter who they are or what the project is.

The basic cause of this is there were a lot of government projects in the 60s that were bad and activism successfully stopped them. That's "urban renewal", the Embarcadero highway, etc - city planners would basically knock down black neighborhoods just for the joy of building highways over them even if nobody used the result.

So the government was taken over the people who stopped things and rebuilt to make it very easy to stop things, and impossible to actually do them.

Another part of this is that era's environmentalism (under some names like "cities as growth engines") basically thought that doing things = bad for the environment and not doing things = good for the environment. That gets you national parks but also suburban sprawl, which is less "intense" than cities, and so more "natural".
Great first start! Some feedback, if someone states a salary expectation then I wouldn't suggest 10 matches that are more than 50% lower. Maybe just let them know you don't have a great fit right now.

There is a lot of money to be made here so great idea and keep up the good work!
That might have been 20 years ago when Firefox grew from it's grassroot-movement. But Chrome started without extensions and grew more through marketing and Googles fame. Power users have their influence even today, but I'd say it's not as strong as it was in the old days. Most users have emancipated themselves from us, and can choose now on their own, because this kind of information is not arcane anymore.
I've been thinking about network scalability and transaction fees when it comes to blockchain networks and I think this might be a feature and not a bug. If Ethereum is too expensive it seems like it would be relatively easy for 100 people to create a network of 100 nodes and start a new network. The transaction fees would be negligible and if each node had an api also you could support a bunch of clients.

as long as creating, discovering etc. becomes relatively easy. good buy network effects.
Submitted title was "Firefox addons are still unavailable on Android, two years after Fenix release". Since that language doesn't appear in the OP, it seems a little editorialized and I've replaced it with the page title now.

If there's a better (more accurate and neutral) title that uses representative language from the article itself, we can change it again.
Shouldn't this be considered a news aggregator (e.g., Google News), instead of a news website?

Regardless, I do believe an even simpler aggregator fetching only AP/Reuters could be maintained with something like Brave rewards in the future.

Thanks for mentioning and noticing it. I like the original idea (one of those that I thought myself doing back during the pandemic), but seeing it is just a wrapper around another source made it lost its magic, at least for me.
Noted, we'll keep this in mind as we go forward then
An occasional $4K charge is negligible for a business (almost everyone is better off dealing with this sort of overrun than troubleshooting servers, all else equal), and anyway this is a particularity of AWS CloudFront's billing protections rather than a fundamental flaw with serverless.
I'm not day to day on cloud stuff, haven't been in a while, that's why I'm asking this, not intended to be passive-aggressive:

So if I had a "hello world" function, that basically just returned a constant JSON payload...I'm seriously looking at a pittance, pennies for millions of requests? I.e. $0.20?
Wow, the total amount of "research expenditures" "on campus" in the earlier chart was only $447 million.

And here we have a $9.6 billion contract (albeit not for just one year, i'm sure) that wasn't included... it does seem like that earlier chart was not very comprehensive.
Can I ask why you have new ones made? Is it just to have multiple or do they somehow wear out?
It's not a bad idea generally, and it's definitely a great idea for the stated accessibility goals. I think they mostly just need to document the right .editorconfig settings to keep things readable in most editors, or even provide a tool to auto-update .editorconfig, perhaps.

Relatedly, I wonder if some of the remarked upon issues with Github could be fixed on Github's side with increased .editorconfig support in repos.
from this point of view -- it says more about the "job market" and forgery-for-pay than the deepfakes .. it was one year ago I saw a video documentary on young men from various places, in the keep of handlers who charged them rent and maintenance while they applied for remote tech jobs. The handlers were show to clean-up or embellish skill sets, claim English skills or write responses for the applicants, and other fraudulent activity. Meanwhile, on the other side of that, investors have put money into hiring companies who want to follow in the Monster dot com path but more specialized skills or particular clients. The work of outsourcing is just never done it seems, and apparently pays investors and handlers well enough to do these things. Deepfakes makes it part show-business, which is not new either, really.
Bringing the power of deep learning to data in tables
Without having built in the "Island Architecture", it looks exactly like a page of old where you serve an entire page, accept form submissions, return the updated page, and make small elements interactive (islands). These islands contain only minimal local state and global updates happen through the aforementioned form submissions.

The difference being it's all one isomorphic (?) React-y Deno codebase instead of the tangled PHP+jQuery mess.

Promising enough, if you ask me.
I'm speaking specifically to and from the perspective of what I expect to be the majority of HN readership - those deeply involved with matters concerning the technology space. So no, what I said isn't applicable to the wider readership of this blogger, that would be mere "best practice". But I think most readers here don't need to be clued in about what constitutes protip-ness.
So probably a really dumb question, but given that assembly has a limited number of operations and a limited number of registers, what are processors doing with the ever growing number of transistors added to them? What is processed with billions of transistors that can't be done with thousands?

It happened in many prominent cases. Egypt, for example, was called "the breadbasket of Rome."
No objection here. I meant "modern" more in the general sense that it sounded closer to present day than to the middle ages - but that doesn't have to mean we're talking about present-day (2020s) military.

One issue is having an open border that allows trafficking of deadly drugs.

"Between 2020 and 2021, nearly 79,000 people between 18 and 45 years old — 37,208 in 2020 and 41,587 in 2021 — died of fentanyl overdoses, the data analysis from opioid awareness organization Families Against Fentanyl shows."

We also push vaccines during a pandemic that was primarily killing the obese in the greatest numbers but no mention of exercise and a reasonable diet.
There is a lot of information about the process missing from the article. There is no mention of the energy input required, though exhaust CO2 is hot so there is some chance that can contribute to whatever energy is needed. Also, methanol contains hydrogen atoms, so there will need to be hydrogen as an input to this process. Where will the hydrogen come from? Also, how big is the market for methanol?

If this is meant as a handy way to reduce some CO2 output while making a side business of methanol (or other) production then it might be good. If it's meant to be industrial scale CO2 elimination then probably not.
Then that person needs to coach offenders, and senders need to be explicit/clear when something is an action item vs an FYI. If that Director is truly needing to be in the loop and take action on so much email that they cant keep up then there needs to be a person hired to manage that.
As someone who struggled to give up caffeine, as well as a handful of other highly addictive substances, I eye the coffee pot with a much more critical eye. Its been my experience that caffeine makes most people jittery, impulsive, sometimes frantic in their never-ending frenetic movements in the pursuit of "getting things done".

I've watched as promising young kids took up the addiction to make their deadlines and end up wired, tired, and burnt out. I've watched fights erupt recently at the drive-through line at Starbucks near my home. It reminds me of my time as a cocaine user, and the way people would fight to get their fix.

I've read that coffee was the fuel that sparked the colonization of the western hemisphere. I've read that when the industrial revolution kicked off, the coffee break was invented to keep workers working.

So these days, when I hear free coffee, I also hear the metaphorical cracking of the 1%'s whip at the back of the workforce. I prioritize my health over my work output. I prioritize rest over frantic action.

Hyperbolic? Absolutely. Stimulant addiction is a real thing. I wonder what human society would look like without it. But I know for certain that removing caffeine from my life has made me happier, healthier, and more able over-all.

Try it -- you might like it!

It's simple in the same way C is simple. Sure it's a very small language with pretty straight forward commands, but once you try doing anything of significance it becomes extremely complicated and it's easy to do nasty things with it.
He was definitely not a charlatan; he could barely enough get people to pay him for his good ideas which other people got rich off of. Charlatan implies that he knew his ideas were bunk and tried to sell them anyway; many (most?) of his ideas were not bunk and Westinghouse among others got filthy rich off of his three phase patent, induction motor/generator patents, etc.

Regarding his wireless power transmission ideas, I think it's clear that he thought it was a good idea, and a workable idea, and an idea that needed just a little more time and investment and would shortly be working very well. He was wrong, of course, but I think he thought it would work.

IMHO Tesla was a genius whose spark was rooted in his intuition rather than a solid fundamental understanding of physics and math. His intuition was "weird" and sometimes wrong, but also sometimes very, very right.
so summarizing thus far:

You say this like it's obvious that AWS is better.

There are certainly cases where AWS can be better (ease of edge networks and multi-region availability come to mind)

But outside of a very small set of cases (most of which are when companies are victims of their own success - which is actually a wonderful problem to have) what's the compelling reason to actually use AWS if "Of course I am paying more" for it?

In my opinion, if you can still run your db on a single machine - you don't fucking need the cloud yet. That covers a pretty large chunk of businesses.

Most of the "cloud" is convincing business that could self-host their entire stack on a raspberry pi in a basement that they should be spending thousands on cloud compute costs a year.

Fuck - the most damning evidence is simply how much fucking money these companies are making from upselling you cpu cycles that they're getting mostly for free. For the 4th quarter of 2021, amazon reported a profit of 5.2 billion on ~18 billion in revenue from AWS.

> which is the goal

I don't think so. There's many more ways and decisions they could have gotten away with to make Firefox worse without outright killing it, that they haven't done (yet).

Rather, I think it's more likely that Firefox, the browser application, is a bit of an albatross to the Mozilla foundation. Something they begrudgingly have to live with, at least in the short term. It's their organization's 'product', but to a certain layer of leadership and above, it's just another vehicle for their broader mission which could be accomplished much easier by just being a chrome fork instead. It'd also remove the need to hire and retain so many pesky and annoying engineers.

Such that the Mozilla corp. is something they have to keep around, but definitely not something they want to keep around.

It is an attractive way of rationalizing the astonishing and bewildering decision making at Mozilla.
SMTP connections tend to be opportunistically encrypted, but intercepting the connection via MITM is much easier than for e.g. a HTTPS connection.

So while it's true that most SMTP connections are encrypted, that doesn't mean anything unless the endpoints are enforcing trust on each other which mostly they're not.

I feel like anybody, especially female, who have high res photos/videos of themselves nude or not on the internet are going to wake up one day that they have turned into a pornstar.

For example, kpop idols. There are high rest 60fps fancams of them dancing, there are high res broadcasts, images from all angles.

There's already a huge market for deep fake kpop and I believe that they are in for a reckoning.

which is an awful awful thing ;)

I am a NYT subscriber and I love what they do online. Some of the one-off special effects are a bit excessively heavy, but I appreciate the creativity and willingness to push the boundaries or explore the design space of the web.

I also get the actual paper delivered in the morning, so if I need something "performant" or have a poor connection I can simply read it in print. So I appreciate that the website offers something more than just an online duplicate of the print experience.

I wonder if the NYT would see an increase or decrease in conversions if they switched to a more performant but less progressive design system. Would more people convert on the fast load time? Or are the special effects diving more conversions (as they did for me personally)? I think they must have done the math and concluded that their business aligns more with the latter.
Also, this can make me bounce: ,,payment failed, please start again with an empty shopping cart''. It happens on quite many webshops.
It's not the accessibility of deadly drugs as much as the unknown variability in the drugs addicts use, causing them to unexpectedly overdose. One could make a compelling argument these drug deaths are actually because the borders aren't freely open to wholesale lab produced narcotics.
