I don't care about Brendan Eich quite as much as I care about the Google / Chrome monopoly, and Brave just makes this monopoly stronger by depending on Chrome. By being Chrome, actually.

I want the web to be built around something else than ad-/tracking-supported software and Brave is being very self-contradictory with this.

Don't use Brave if you care about the global picture / tracking around the globe.
Lets replace that with vpn pushing, that sure is better. By the way brave is also pushing a paid vpn.
It's already tested in humans, we know it's possible. Currently we have a proof of concept of roughly 60 letters per minute. It was tried with people who needed BCI because of epilepsy. It's also tested that it's possible to transfer what the person is seeing as well as what they're imagining.

Neuralink is most importantly about the surgery procedure, not about BCI itself, that's really nothing new at this point. They're building their own BCI because of their specific idea about the surgery (they don't want to need to remove the upper half of your skull like it's done today), but the tech itself is already proven.

Do you even watch the news of this field? This was tried like 5-10 years ago already, and is now steadily improving. I don't understand how you can make claims about Neuralink or Musk when you don't know the basics about the state of this field.
I assume the group of people buying Apple is mostly disjoint from the group of people buying Razer/Alienware. Maybe Lenovo has some overlap.
Except you can't because their new precision workstations use their own new proprietary format. You can only buy it from Dell. They said they will make a SO-DIMM adapter but it doesn't support 128GB.
I love my framework, the screen is fantastic, the modularity is great. Only thing I can critique is the fact that it's USB ports on the first generation I have are mad finnicky, Docks and such are hit or miss with it.

But I'm a first-generation adopter, I am assuming these types of things are getting ironed out in future generations or have already been.
Thank you for acknowledging what I wrote is true. When you have two interpretations of what someone write, and one is obviously true and the other is a strawman, please don't choose to argue against the false interpretation. It's against HN's guidelines.
That's a name I have not heard in a while, but Borland C++ was a great tool back in the day. So was their database product, which I forget the name. Then it was like in 1 night Borland was gone. I think MS had something to do it. It just happened so fast.

I noticed something similar in popsci articles and a lot of (soft) sci-fi: They are often enamoured by a particular set of subfields in physics, namely particle physics, relativity and quantum theory. But they rarely make an attempt to make those fields accessible to a casual reader or clear up apparent contradictions - on the contrary, they usually highlight the counterintuitive or paradox aspects and maintain an air of arcane knowledge and mysticism: Only Einstein could understand relativity because he was imbued with the spirit of genius, us normal mortals can only marvel at the beauty of knowledge made for minds greater than us!

This always seems to me more like "anti-science journalism" because while it superficially celebrates "science", it also strongly discourages the reader from trying to make sense of it.

My pet conspiracy theory is that some groups (i.e. religious groups and panpsychism folks) are very invested in the idea that human consciousness exists separate from the physical universe - or at the very least is a fundamental force that cannot be explained by any other physical phenomenon.

Connected with this is the religious notion that humans are sort of the "main characters" of the universe and the rest of it is made specifically for them.

Quantum theory introduced some technical terms which were very unfortunately named and gave the impression that the theory would support that view - when in reality it was just a misunderstanding. Those groups took this apparent backing of "science" and ran with it - and have little interest in the general public understanding enough of physics to realise the mistake.
> Unfortunately these things are reportedly happening, the sentiment should be anti-Putin but ends up being anti-Russian, mostly thanks to Russians like these: https://t.me/glavredinfo/61841

If you don't mind me asking, why should the sentiment be anti-Putin? What makes you think that the war is not being supported by a significant fraction (if not majority) of the Russian population?
Wait the android linux smart phone guys start to package, massively and by default, their devices with a dock (DP/HDMI/USB).
> that agressive bully was much further west 30+ years ago

And Putin wants all of that back.

> western europe managed fine then

But eastern Europe didn't manage fine, and they're the ones now pushing western Europe into putting more effort into stopping Putin.

Western Europe mostly just wants to trade with Putin. This is most visible in Germany of course (technically central Europe, but the old east-west divide is suddenly relevant again), but also France. They've been slow to accept that Putin is not really a trade partner but an aggressor. They ignored it when Putin destroyed Chechnya. They ignored it when he took chunks out of Georgie. They ignored it when Putin took Crimea. Only when he tried to take Donbass did they finally start to see there might be a problem. Meanwhile Poland and the Baltics have been pointing out that Putin is a threat for two decades now. They were undeniably right to join NATO.
It's not taboo, just politically sensitive and dangerous for Chinese citizens because it can get them in trouble. Some like the Chairman but not all of them do.

Today the objection is with jokes about the Chairman. Tomorrow it'll be content about Tiananmen. The day after it'll be about the Cultural Revolution and the Great Leap Forward, etc. If it were that simple, perhaps Google would have done it long ago. The demands of the Party are never clear and never end.
The 8G on my wife's last Intel MacPro was definitely not enough for her light browsing and email reading, it just ground to a halt swapping browser memory. Admittedly she visited web sites with a lot of crap on them, but still.
So? Your post suggests you're adding a new idea, but it was already referred to.
Focusing on taxing the highly paid instead of taxing the wealthy is tiresome.
My business bought two 12th gen Frameworks. First one came with a half dozen different issues that should have been picked up during QC and support was pretty lackluster. We sent that back. The second one I've been using for about six months now and am reasonably happy with. Battery life could be better (under Ubuntu) and there's way too much wobble on the screen which is exacerbated by it being glossy.

On balance though, I would probably give them another go when this needs an upgrade.
In this case it's fake AND I dislike it :) Thankfully, both can be true.

I don't think what you write actually touches what I wrote.

> For html, the renderer still depends on the structure of the tree.

Of course! But it's not important whether you first insert node A at place X and node B at place Y, or the other way around.

> Whether it starts from the bottom of the top doesn't matter. Because the renderer is an imperative function.

See, that's the thing. What renderer are you talking about? I'm talking about the process of turning the declarative HTML tree into a DOM tree.

> But the declarative part is the tree itself and these declarative statements are not commutative is what I mean.

Well, no. You can't change a declarative structure and expect it to be the same. But why does that have any bearing on whether HTML trees are declarative? The tree is a declaration, and it doesn't matter how you turn this declaration into a DOM tree.

It seems like you're expecting to be able to re-order the child nodes. That is not what declarativity is about. It means that it doesn't matter in which order you do the operations. The operation itself is defined by the node placed into the tree AND the resulting position of the node. You are right that you can't re-order the node declarations, but you can execute them in whatever order you want.
That was about Poles, not Russians.

I actually like Windows, despite all its faults, and blame the wider Windows ecosystem (and especially Chrome) for demanding and wasting so much RAM.

With that said, I can easily break past 16GB just running Windows and Chrome. 32GB is the new minimum if you want an enjoyable time; swapping into the page file even with PCIE4 and PCIE5 SSDs is still miserable.
I have a Lenovo Legion for games and Macs for work. Why don’t I use Lenovo for both? It’s heavy, has crappy battery life, and sometimes makes fan noise even when idle (because it’s running hot). If Mac could run my Steam library I wouldn’t even bother with Windows devices.

I mean, you can get a light and thin Surface laptop. But it’s in the same price range as Macs. But M2 definitely beats Intel on battery life.
Your browser can still be fingerprinted without cookies. The site just needs enough unique information (user agent, timezone, screen size, IP, operating system, country, etc.) to form a trackable identity.
Yes, the way consumers perceive your pricing matters. If you lose a key, you need to call a locksmith; it's rare that someone needs to buy a new apple laptop.
There is no opt-out to not use a VPN. There's... the Mullvad logo, which seems pretty reasonable. Certainly more reasonable than injecting their own ad network into your pages and pushing your home-rolled cryptocoin.
it can be done in romance languages such as italian, but it's way more frequent that one word has to be a verb and another a noun: sanguisuga (blood sucker), magiafuoco (fire eater), porta tagliafuoco (fire resistent door), apri-pista, or noun+adjective: cassaforte (strong box, safe) or preposition+noun: oltretomba (beyond the grave, after life)

There are cases like noun+noun but they are rare and they are not productive, i.e. I cannot make one up. Pescecane (fish dog, i.e. a shark) is ok, but you cannot "sferaneve" for a snowball

Probably the reason is that the two nouns have to have a special relation for it to work, i.e. one word has to act as an adjective, it has to qualify the first word somehow. The shark is a fish, but is a fish that bites like a dog, hence it's a fishdog a pescecane.
Similarly "casa madre", for headquarters, it's not a house of the mother ("case della madre") but it's a special kind of house that has the quality of "gatherhing the whole family together like if in the case of a real family"
Safari is to browsers today what IE once was: dread by those that have to support them.

I am yet to meet competent developers who have ever given two hoots about “super fastest browser #1!!” blog posts over feature completed-ness / spec-compliance.

I hope the C-level exec at Apple sees this and realises why more devs are going to go with Edge (lol) / Firefox support: the sales guys are running Apple now.
We do build computers that last a decade. The core of my desktop is 10 years old albeit with newer SSDs and GPU. My old computer can do anything that a new computer can, just a little slower.
I was quite surprised by the strength of opinion on this one, but now I see the numbers it makes more sense. Those that hated the public scooters turned out, but nobody loved them enough to turn out and vote in support.

As they say, History is made by those that turn up (or somesuch).
Thanks for this. I always wondered why the road leading west from Trafalgar Sq was called Pall Mall.
That 13" model is so confusing. It's such a bad buy in many ways compared to the 14"
> "But they started it" "They do it too" "They are meaner"

You're using quotes, but I said none of those things.

> 'They they they' is the problem.

The problem is as vaidhy suggested. You said grace and empathy is much harder than condescension and schadenfreude, but it becomes even harder when grace and empathy are met in return with condescension and schadenfreude. If you're acting in good faith, how much can you stand to be humiliated? It takes two sides to come to the table. Trust must be built mutually. Otherwise it's like talking to a brick wall.
Apparently it's banned along with a bunch of other terms: https://decentralizedcreator.com/list-of-banned-words-in-mid...
They advertise their VPN as having a working Split tunnel feature. That is also false, at least on Windows.
Outstanding. We need more like this on the internet so thanks for making it a better place. And thanks just as much for the github repo!! [bottom right]. Simply wonderful.
No, but you do to run the things you're running Windows for.
Is the M1 Air still being sold? It still is in the US. If so, at what price? That is the relevant figure to compare.

In the US, M1 Air is 8GB/256GB for $1,000 and 16GB/512GB for $1,400. I think those are the same prices from original release. And so due to decreasing purchasing power of USD since 2020, they have gotten cheaper.

Edit: yes, the M1 Air has the same nominal price as when it was released 2.5 years ago:

Ahahahaha. In a twisted way, you are right. Such is the entitlement and the decades of car dependency that daring to remove even a single lane (driving lane or parking) from the almighty Car traffic, be it for a bus lane or a tramway or a bike lane, sparks incredibly virulent backlash.

(sorry for answering here, replies are disabled under your last comment for me, I guess the flood/flame protection)

> Can you quote the update?

'civilian' is a direct translation of 'гражда́нский'[0] which would be a typical mistake for someone translating from Russian to English without context or the knowledge. So I think it's the internal one referenced here.

Honestly, taking the external passport wouldn't make sense, because the only place where it would be needed officially is after the border crossing and someone in the stop list would be stopped long before that by checking the internal passport. And at least some neighbouring countries allows crossing by Russian internal passport, so the external one isn't even needed.

But still the article reads as a cheap propaganda so until a more solid evidence shows up I would chalk it under the usual exaggeration of 'everything is bad there'.

> but this refers to the red-coloured external passport

I think both the red and maroon are referred as red there.

> You are American aren't you

I am Belgian. In the smaller Belgian cities that I frequent, pedestrians seem to wait for traffic lights.

Admittedly that is not the case in Brussels. Maybe it is a big city thing.
Not just an American thing, try jaywalking in Germany, they consider it so offensive that even some mothers will shield their children’s eyes to prevent them seeing you do it. You must be British, thinking you speak for the world ;)
Just looking at spec sheets, you won't find the value. It's in everything that's hard to measure but provides real benefit.

If a lot of non-Mullvad users use it, it will create a nice pool of people with at least the same browser fingerprint.

Basically, it seems like a good choice if you are already a Mullvad user and your threat model does not require the use of a Tor browser. However, if there's a significant non-Mullvad user base using it, it won't do much, as you'll just stand out as the only person using the Mullvad browser without Mullvad VPN.
The world of House of Cards is one in which each politician is constantly surrounded by people - even among their allies - who want to stab them in the back to take their job or remove them as a threat. And they'll happily use any dirty tricks, betrayal or even murder to accomplish it.

Doesn't sound very secure to me.
> This is how normal people use lights in the rest of the world.

You're generalizing too much and making exact same mistake you're complaining about. Also jaywalking and going on the red light are not the same.

Here in Poland:

* you would get a ticket if police sees you crossing a pedestrian crossing on red light
* you would also get one if there is pedestrian crossing near you(100m) and you don't use it while crossing
* no crossing nearby ? You can pass unless it is something like a highway. You don't get priority in this case.
Can we use AI to generate fake retina scans and then use that to earn fake money?
I switched to a Safari-first approach for web development a while back and it has reduced my pain considerably. In fact I use it as my main daily driver browser in general now.

I've yet to run into a single case of some code running well on Safari but breaking on other major browsers, so by ensuring my code is compatible with Safari, I'm basically guaranteeing full compatibility with everything.
>The cheapest iPhone 14 starts at a bit over €1000.

The cheapest iPhone they sell you is the SE, a phone with a low-res, dim display, that's worse than what Android phones had 10 years ago (have the SE from work and my dusty old 2012 Samsung Note 2's OLED display just blows it out of the water), all starting at a whopping 549 Euros, more than my rent.

Apple's pricing is just nuts in Europe. For up to 399 I might give it a pass, but at 549 they're just taking the mickey.

The iPad 9 was also a pretty good deal at ~380 Euros until they replaced it with the iPad 10 at ~540 Euros. Absolutely mental. It fells they're pulling "an Nvidia" on us and just jacking up the prices for no reason.
Hey, I myself just struggled to center align an image on GitHub today. If I can create this, then anybody can, with enough time put into it.
Which starts at lower prices. But you're right, I forgot about this model because I do not consider it a Pro model anymore.
I think the "laundering" charge works both ways. While it is true that it will help some leverage work that went into GPL projects for new non-GPL projects, it is more important to know that it provides cover from accidentally importing copyrighted material from Microsoft, et al, into GPL projects.

While the value of the trade might not be fair, the cost that legions of corporate "Intellectual Property" lawyers can force upon the lone open source developer are a far larger drag on development.
For context, it seems Midjourney blocks a ton of terms and none of this is particularly new. Not sure if there's an official list anywhere.

TL;DR: they are mad because of:

1. A genuine (?) Safari bug with the CompressionStream API. (we never learn what the actual bug was, and their bugreport to WebKit was literally just that "hey, our website at URL ... doesn't work" - no minimal reproducible example whatsoever. Lol)

2. An issue due to them relying on a Chromium bug.

3. An issue due to them assuming that OffscreenCanvas will always support both 2D and 3D (WebGL) contexts.
The M2 air for me is working more as a means for me to talk myself into getting an M1 Pro 14" than anything else.

Creating a mental process like this:
- "I'd like an M1 Pro 14, but it's too expensive"
- "A 16GB M1 Air would more than suffice and they're now at okayish prices refurbished"
- "Oh! there's a new M2 Air and it's like a pretty nice middle point between the M1 Air and the M1 Pro"
- "Oh wait, 16GB is only a few hundred less than an M1 Pro"
- "...I guess I should just splash out and get the M1 Pro??"

I'm probably still just gonna get an M1 Air when I need to instead but the amount of time I've entertained getting an M2 Air versus using it to compare against alternatives on either side has been absolutely minimal.

My work M1 Pro has drastically improved my quality of life so I'm not entertaining anything other than Apple, but the M2 is decidedly underwhelming comparing to the seismic shift that was the M1.
