It can also be a symptom of brain cancer. My aunt passed away last year after suffering from severe tinnitus for two years, and not a single doctor suggested and MRI, they all pretty much gave her magnesium supplements and drugs to treat the symptom (tinnitus) rather than actually thinking outside the box and suggesting an MRI to be sure (which is almost free in my country). Even I nearly suggested she does it very early on but thought I wouldn't know better than doctors.

Eventually, other symptoms started appearing and only then did they do an MRI, and lo and behold, a tumor was found at the base of her skull and right behind her sinus cavity, it was pressing against her auditory nerve and was the cause of all the tinnitus. The tumor was basically untreatable via surgery and it was too late for chemo.
I wish they'd just ban ad blockers from their store. It would instantly turn uBlock Origin into the Firefox killer app.

I’m trying to suss out whats my tinnitus. I’ve had persistent fullness in my head for about 2 years now that I can’t find an explanation for.

Audiologist says I have better than average hearing for my age (41).

The precipitating event in my mind was an Opeth concert in 2021. However, I never thought anything was too loud there, and wore earplugs for most of it. Additionally that was a very stressful time. Also, I have ehlers danlos.

So might be TMJ, sinus pressure, EDS, and/or exposure to loud music.

It sucks especially because Opeth weren’t great performers there. I suspect I don’t like most live metal shows because they seem to make them too loud.
utter psycho-babble BS
This is such an annoying approach for Google to force people to using Chrome... I get that they're not testing stuff on Firefox, so much is obvious. But there are so many times things don't work properly in Firefox (YouTube loading slower, lag in Gmail, Drive having weird UI<>backend synchronization bugs) at a first glance, but as soon as you set the user-agent to Chrome, things just magically work perfectly fine, and all issues disappear.

Someone should really be doing a deep dive into this issue, because it's been going on for a long time, and is clearly anti-competitive. My guess is that they're really good at hiding this/making it look accidental rather than on purpose.
For web, Flutter has 2 renderers and offers 3 options:

- html: Uses HTML elements and CSS

- canvaskit: which, as you mentioned, uses canvas to own the full drawing process

- auto: defaults to canvaskit on web but html on mobile.

Is this the same as gpt-engineer or a stealth startup on the back of it? Sounds really interesting!
Does it also sound stronger for you after a nap or intense exercise?
Okay, so bottom line.

I don't remember americans telling me that we deserve what's coming and I haven't seen them bullets shot in my apartment building. But there were very real ex-work-acquaintances of mine from russia told me that we deserve what's coming.

There are a lot of people doing shit and calling themselves russians. What does west has to do w/ increased russophobia?

It's somehow always someone else's fault.
You're doing great work.

Please don't let the SSDs die again Mark, or we'll have to go back to doing actual work. (I miss the days of slow compilers.)

Technically not, they just had secret courts rubber stamp for them.

In the most technical sense it's legal though of course it subverts the entire idea of the justice system by having a court in your pocket.
No, it's objectively not worse, you can compile Chromium yourself and remove any features you don't want, something you were never able to do with IE.
Why would cloudflare ddos you with their own servers? If they actually wanted to attack random sites to get them to become customers (very much doubt that conspiracy) they probably would use someone elses IP:s.
Thank you Alexander!

I'm a graduate student in the US, I need some major dental procedures done but am put off by the potential bills (even with a good dental insurance, it would still cost thousands of dollars; a lot of dark patterns, they can't give you a rough quote before doing an expensive checkup).

I did some research myself on where to find more affordable quality dental care in my area, and found that a top dental school nearby would offer care from students at a lower rate, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Happy holidays. :)
> Do you have an audiologist regularly look at your ears?

I did in the past, haven't in years so thank you for the reminder, I really should do that. I think in part it is because I've simply given up on ever seeing an improvement, just a very slow rearguard fight.
And when questioned, they lie to courts and Congress with impunity.

I think you might just not be well informed, combined with being too lazy to do a 2 minute web search "red cross workers killed".

I half expect you now to say "yeah, but it isn't that many people", which might be because it is a a WAR CRIME to kill Red Cross workers. Really, seriously smh.
They equally gather information on friendly democracies, bribe or blackmail people, hack computers, they are involved in trade negotiations, watch what all the parties are doing in civil wars, etc. It's not a good guys vs bad guys, good vs evil thing. They are a limited exception to democratic governments abiding to the rule of law. They are hired thugs, "our thugs". And I am not disputing that they are necessary. Just that it is a bit naive to think people whose job it is to break laws all day long will abide to another law. That's why they tend to be scandals rich organisations.
Offline translation has landed for a while now. It's built in now.
Have you really had zero issues with brainstorming and team design remotely? I find it way more efficient to jot down messy ideas on a whiteboard than mess around with a virtual mock. Those are great as a polishing step once we reach a general approach we agree on. But constantly shuffling, panning, and resetting a Mirio board ends up with utter chaos IME
Municipal plumbing is a collective concern. I’m happy to chip in my share and expect you to do the same. I’d hope that was part of the cost of water service, but if we need a municipal bond to pay for it, so be it.

I don’t expect you to pay to replace plumbing inside my house nor think that you should expect me to pay for yours, whether that’s in the form of 50% of just your pipes or 0.00005% of 1 million people’s pipes.
Interesting! This aligns with my hunch that we might soon start to actually store much of data in models rather than unwieldly datasets :) ... as I've been writing about:

With no skin in the game, I’d say “monopoly” would seem less accusatory (in that it meets the definition) but “monopolist” seems more negative (in that it acts like one, which has negative connotations)
It depends on your definition of 'solid state'

hard drives store bits magnetically , ssd's store bits electrically. You could call both solid state if the SSD wasn't specifically named due to its close relation to dram and cache lines that need active power. I would also consider hard drives more solid than ssd's if you tested for how long each could resist entrophy if there was no source of low entrophy.
I love this. Must be a lot of fun to work on it!
>It’s been a longstanding idea that these symptoms, known as tinnitus, arise as a result of a maladaptive plasticity of the brain. In other words, the brain tries to compensate for the loss of hearing by increasing its activity, resulting in the perception of a phantom sound, tinnitus.

I can't say I buy that. I've got tinnitus. Also sometimes my brain has a loss of input as I can't see, hear of feel something and it's nothing like tinnitus.

It seems more likely to me that it's a problem with the gizmo that converts mechanical movement into electrical impulses. It consists of a string like thing, the tip link, between two hairs that pulls on an ion channel in a nerve cell wall to let ions in and trigger the nerve to give a sound signal. (pic here, fig 1 if you scroll down https://www.cell.com/fulltext/S0092-8674%2809%2901170-2)

When you get an over loud sound it probably yanks that thing too hard leaving the ion channel stuck open some how or something along those lines.

The whole thing is tiny - the tip link is about 150nm long. Another pic here (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2921850/ fig 1)
It all became quite muddy, but I am sure they did at some point. Clearly mark sponsored content, that can be highlighted (also on the map) - but otherwise the algorithm for the search needs to be neutral, that was the basic claim of google (and demand of regulators) in all monopol abuse related legal battles. So if they favor their best paying clients in a non transparent way and this is verified, then I believe this would be very expensive for google, possibly the end of them - as then every small and middle company can sue them for compensation.
To the extent that maybe it is, it should be other countries laws. Nobody has the authority to grant such law breaking permission (without a warrant). When you break the rules establishing a system, you no longer have that system, but a free for all.

The US constitution in particular aims to protect the people from government overreach. See the original amendments and read them in that light.
Why would anyone want to use ms teams? I understand employers stuck in the fax age might demand it but it’s their problem if they want their data leaked. For personal and outside work no one should use ms teams.

That appears to be written by or for Terry Davis, a programmer with schizophrenia who became somewhat of a meme. He died a few years ago. It’s possible he wrote it himself as he would post racist rants everywhere, including on HN.

I'm sure most would too. But this is more about worker efficiency than personal desires. People who say they lose zero productivity in every stage of work lose some credance when the underlying narrative incentivizes them to say that.
Manifest v3 offers free performance and increased security & privacy. Gone are the days where any/every extension had access to every website you visited.

The point is good. I found it a bit confusing that the article first collapses "author" and "maintainer" into "dev", and then randomly expands and recollapses them as the article goes on.

The full inequality seems to be:

biz > user > ops > maintainer > author

That feels roughly right.

It’s the USA so you’re probably right, but in other places roads have been depaved and/or pedestrianized, and trees could then be planted.
I guess it's a sign of the domain expanding (exploding, really). "Software development" is not a single discipline, even though it's still taught as such in many places.
Firefox has translation built in now (Menu -> Translate Page), but it's really not up to the same standard as Chrome.

- It's slow.

- Automatic language detection rarely works.

- It only supports a few languages.

- For many sites it breaks the page.

Or you have big enterprise customers that have a grudge against Amazon and Google and refuse to use anything else.
I don't think not having enough versions of IE was ever a problem. The problem starts when everyone builds their app to a platform that is very dominant and controlled by people who's interest are not always aligned with the user's interests.

You don't have to compile Chromium to have a browser incompatible with the websites that people build for Chrome, you can just use Firefox or Safari or write your own browser if you want to have a web browser that won't be able to run Microsoft Teams.
I see Electron, Tauri/Capacitor and friends as a viable route.

Second choice in terms of DX is Flutter. There's nothing like that out there in terms of DX although there are tons of other issues notably around performance.

Third would be Qt but that's not a viable tool because of licensing.

The first two options have no such licensing issues.
That someone else is a collective of everyone else, as I'm sure you know. Because that's how a good society functions.

Either everyone pays to replace the lead pipes, or everyone pays when lead-poisoned children grow up dumber, angrier, and more violent. When someone with high amounts of lead in their system goes on to murder their neighbor or vote a fascist into office, you have to wonder if maybe they could have turned out different. Nevermind the added medical costs which "someone else" pays through insurance or taxes. Especially if the lead poisoned people are, on average, more likely to be homeless or less employable.

We all pay the price for toxins and pollution. That price is much higher than the tax increase.
I don't bother because Mozilla is just controlled opposition at this point, I'll stick to Chromium based ones like Brave for now as I don't consider there to be a meaningful difference.

Also Firefox mobile doesn't seem to have tab groups and is the only browser I've tried which doesn't have a proper Android tablet UI.
You didn't read the article. The point is that you want to use the space junk as a mass filler for your skyhook. The skyhook needs a lot of mass, a thousand times more mass than the payload. To boost a 100 ton payload, you need a 10000 ton skyhook. Junk on earth is worthless as that has to be launched into LEO.

My biggest concern however is how they are going to keep the skyhook rotating. If it needs energy from earth the entire concept is kind of meaningless.
People say this but probably underestimate how much the NSA at least pretends to follow the letter of the law compared to intelligence services in almost any other nation on the planet.

Them following the law is entirely downstream from Congress doing things like what Wyden is doing. Their existence is predicated on congressional satisfaction, and many congresspeople are at least fellow travellers to the practical frustrations many people on this site have with the NSA. It's never enough, but it's _something_.

Meanwhile plenty of countries just have their intelligence services tucked away, out of the spotlight, and with barely any legal framework to bind them.
Even from a pure legalistic point of view, US laws have extraordinary extra territorial reach. I believe if a bribe occurs between two foreigners in a foreign country, the mere fact that they used USD for payment brings it within US jurisdiction. And certainly if a US citizen is involved.
I’d be surprised if they’re “buying browsing data” instead of just having a tap on all major ISPs and siphoning everything off directly, or compelling ISPs to do this with NSLs.

Let's say you start with pure html, now how to decompose your HTML into multiple components with state ?

Compiling to HTML is just the implementation detail.
They only did this in the last 6 months or so. I used to use Firefox with Teams meetings until recently.
The Teams doc from Feb 2023 is a bit out of date, or is just legal cya.

Still limitations, but I joined a Teams meeting the day before this comment with my microphone and external cam, and participated fully, using Firefox on MacOS.

Yes, some client functionality is still missing (I didn't share a screen, for example), but both sides (MS and FF) appear to be making improvements.
Not really, HN uses Postgresql, which should be fine, but it's also written in a pretty niche language. I think the argument in that an implementation in C# or Java, which is as boring as it gets in the web world, would fair much better.
Also came here to point out that celebrities aren't traveling the world in these cheap slow planes ...
Ask HN: What Are You Selling?
- What is your product/service? (your product NAME and link(s))
- How do you manage multiple product or service links to guide your potential buyers accordingly? (YES OR NO)
I learned to do it by isolating what made my ears pop when I yawn. I explain it as “kinda like yawning without opening your mouth” which seems to work.
Various states don't recognize the ICC, but that doesn't stop prosecution. What does stop prosecution is if no one transfers you to the ICC or you have a state that is willing to invade if the ICC prosecutes you. In theory, the US falls in the latter category, many others fall in the first. Nonetheless, people have been prosecuted even if their state of origin didn't recognize the ICC. Otherwise, it would be really easy for some crackpot dictator to just say his state didn't recognize the ICC under his dictatorship, so he cannot be prosecuted.

I was disappointed it wasn't there.

In my experience, managers will complain but the users don't actually care and just want something that works.
I'm always initially excited about these frameworks, but like all other frameworks I've tested, DaisyUI has a number of issues in iOS Safari and other browsers.

It's as if authors of these frameworks severely underestimate the amount of testing required to make these things actually work across browsers. Once you have that many (themeable, no less!) components, all bets are off you'll still able to fix it without breaking existing themes and applications.
I'm always surprised that there are people that read Hacker News that don't know how to get around paywalls.
Fair point!! I shall keep pointing this out from now on! :)
I used Teams in Firefox for a couple of years. It was shit, but I'm pretty sure it would have been just as shit in Chrome.
Another weird anim pioneer was Joe Cartoon in 1998.

With that argument you could say that the red cross in the non-digital world encourages false flag operations.

It is incorrect. MV3 definition updates go through an automated fast-track process for safe rules. See the presentation[1] and Q&A[2] at the recent Ad Blocking Summit.

I wouldn't hold my breath on a correction. Ron never corrects his articles, like when he confused the Privacy Sandbox with the Topics API a couple months ago[3].

Feels like and environment problem. One workplace I had was an open office, but it also had a few dozen "focus rooms". Very tiny booth sort of room with A desk and outlets. Someone in a focus room clearly shouldn't be disturbed, but in the open space you're generally a bit more open.

Interesting! Hedge funds - very interesting.

Oh no yep your right on time saved and what opportunities it gives them not just the electricity and capital costs :))

You can now experiment 30 different models instead of 1 - if you have 100 GPUs, we magically made it 3000!
Millions of individuals pay for it now, yes, as a collective investment which pays off many times over a couple decades later as the public does not have to pay for the societal damage caused by widespread lead poisoning. That would be both a decrease in crime, and in an assortment of health issues.

The benefit realized down the line would be impossible to reach by each homeowner acting individually, as not everyone would be able to pay (and the people least able to pay statistically are likely to have more children!), so by having millions of people pay for it, we reach a better result.

This is IMO an example of a success of government.
Chrome != Chromium. The vast majority of the planet is using Chrome, not Chromium. Most average joes have no idea about Chromium.

Either way, whether you're using Chromium or Chrome, you're still entrenching Google's monopoly over the web.

Like the sibling said, the problem was IE's monopoly itself not the lack of more IE-based variants which wouldn't have helped at all, the same way how Chromium isn't helping counter Google's monopoly.

What's your personal experience with it? We've been on the platform for almost eight years. Three clusters, hundreds of compute VMs, four or five public and private DNS zones, 10+ cloud sql dbs, about the same number of memorystore and firebase instances. We just don't see these issues as related in the OP, and when we do have problems support has been fast and helpful. Not to gainsay their experience, since it was obviously frustrating, but truthfully you can find similar stories about all compute providers.
