This is exactly the problem, and exactly why the EU is to blame for those popups.

Instead of outlawing a behavior they had a problem with, they are trying ti discourage it. The way they try to discourage it is why we have all these stupid popups.

How is more choice hurting users? I thought I'd read arguments against user choice on Facebook perhaps, but on Hacker News?

Companies are now forced to give users a choice if they process/sell PII. Users can then chose to accept/reject this (if the company implementing the choice as the regulation tells them to), where both choices should be as easy as the other, and if they reject it, the company should follow what the user says.

I agree with you though that it's a shame "Do-Not-Track" headers weren't built in into this, since it's already there but poorly supported. But that really should have been a given, as then companies wouldn't have any chance of turning it around. But I'm guessing they lobbied hard against that, and seemingly won.

Substack does indeed seem to have kill-the-newsletter banned, but (at least for free posts) it actually provides an RSS feed out of the box, so you should be able to just chuck the address of the blog’s home page into your RSS reader and have it figure things out for you. I haven’t seen this capability advertised anywhere (and the days of the RSS icon in your address bar are sadly long gone), but it does exist.

(Incidentally, Buttondown also has RSS feeds built in.)

It's a payment form for a parking lot, not an art piece. It needs 2 text inputs. The default will just work. Think of all the forms that you've filled out by hand that someone typed up in Word using inconsistent spacing and a random number of underscores. Did you ever care? Of course not. Default HTML styles are literally a step up from that. The thing it's standing in for is a garbage LCD with 2s latency and a crappy keypad where it can only fit "License Plt #" as a prompt. And that's the better experience than the actual web one (which also required me to go fiddle with allowing scripts).

There's lots of stuff we'd say that about though, especially with advertising. I can totally see why 'point of purchase' advertising would be valuable for brands and retailers, but not if it doesn't add any value or convenience, like this.

I bet the data is like post purchase upsell in e-commerce, which converts pretty high.
I saw an interesting analysis years ago about whether or not the most powerful console 'won' in each generation (i.e. whether or not being the most powerful console of your generation leads to success).

Generally speaking, no, it doesn't actually affect things, and in several cases (e.g. the Game Boy, the Wii, and the Switch come to mind) the objectively 'worse' console (from a tech perspective) was more successful by a country mile.
It's the same logic of Amazon showing you similar items to you items you already purchased. Atleast pizza rolls can be repeatedly purchased, unlike Amazon which advertises hot tubs after you bought a hot tub.

”If schools used different methods in education then mediums would have benefits there”

Teachers want the medium that gives the best results for the process they are using, one can assume. If that process is suboptimal that’s a different, perhaps much harder thing to change.

It’s of course quite possible that the methods used by teachers are identical, inferior or superior to those you suggest. Or that they are the best methods for the mediums that exist (causing a kind of chicken and egg problem)

But I think the only relevant discussion here and now is how these teachers given their education and their mandated study plans (and methods) optimize their education, and what science has to say about that.

To draw a parallel to reading for other purposes, I’d never manage to get through even a short novel on an e-ink reader much less a screen.

I print any scientific articles I have to read on paper otherwise they are much much harder to understand.

I have no insight into the DVLA, but the idea that no paper process could ever be complicated is really funny. The UK enjoyed/loathed centuries of bureaucracy before computers were invented. At one point getting a divorce required an Act of Parliament specifically naming the unhappy couple! Being restricted to pen and paper hardly inhibited the human ability to create complex systems.

Votes from the little people don't have an impact on what happens at the Federal level, they just change who's in the seat talking with the folks who actually have input into the decision-making process.

And I'd argue that a much, much larger reason Harris wasn't elected was that housing, food, and fuel costs have been and continue to rise rapidly, but Harris's political party continues to repeat the "Inflation is under control. Look at the numbers! The economy is doing great!!" soundbite. Will someone wearing the other team's jersey actually attempt to do something about the problem? I doubt it... but roughly half of the people who chose to vote seem to have thought it was worth a shot.

On the other hand, games are so hard to build and require so much vision that despite decades of gaming history, volunteers/hackers are mostly limited to modifying existing games rather than building a game from scratch.

You use Super Mario 64 as some sort of low/achievable bar for what volunteers might be able to build, as if SM64 is an easy game to build, yet nobody is building games like that on a volunteer basis.

Even look at the engineering that went into OpenMW: once again hackers were only able to recreate a game engine that runs existing game files (Morrowind) which is the easy part of building a game.

Most of the time when someone says something is "trivial" without knowing anything about the internals, it's never trivial.

If I remember correctly "the algorithm" as a concept of feed curation has been introduced by facebook ( or youtube?), long after RSS was used by blogs and podcasts. Heck, even Twitter used to have an RSS feed they killed a looong time ago [1]

I also remember that in the beginning I was chuckling to myself "who on earth would want to have their feed curated by a black box whose target function cannot be checked? If I wanted that, I could just keep reading a single newspaper." - turns out I was very wrong and lots of people seem to prefer just getting washed in a steady stream of somewhat internally consistent worldview.

Completely disagree. I mainline RSS feeds from news publications.

Imagine a world where pre-disengagement there's no radicals on either side. Imagine a world where Israel works with people displaced in 1948-1967, and utilizing its overwhelming economic advantage finds acceptable solutions to defuse the problems, instead of supporting more land grabs.

The big gestures (like withdrawing from Gaza) are of course important, but we still must not mistake cause for effect, or the outliers for the baseline.

The guy didn't pick the name. "Mao" is the family name he inherited from his father. In the case of Mao Zedong and Mao Wenchao, they have the same family name, but that's about it. The two people aren't even from the same province.

Please, at least learn your lessons first. It's like suspecting everyone with the family name "Manson" to be a serial killer aspirant.

I've seen (and experienced as the seller) 2 main reasons:

1. we can try and squeeze as much juice as possible from every enterprise client
2. we don't actually know our own economics and/or your scenario is so unique we need to invest effort to quote it within a magnitude

A distant #3: we offer a truly enterprise solution that is too complex to present as a la carte. This happens, but typically you're angling into consulting our bespoke development. Even the most complex cloud scenarios can be costed to the penny; you might not ever pay this but it's a starting point.

> In the case of Google OAuth, it's possible to forego this in order to allow any Google user from any Google workspace to login to your application.

There are plenty of use cases where this is appropriate. If you wanted to allow users to login to Hacker News with their Google accounts you would use this option because you do not care what workspace they belong to.

> Some applications (e.g. Tailscale) take advantage of the public Google OAuth API to provide private internal corporate accounts.

This is a misuse of the public Google OAuth API. Your first link clearly states: "A public application allows access to users outside of your organization (@your-organization.com). Access can be from consumer accounts, like @gmail.com, or other organizations, like @partner-organization.com." In other words it is intended for scenarios where you want to allow access to users outside your workspace.

> Instead, Google instructs you to look at the "hd" parameter, specific to Google, to determine the Google Workspace a given user belongs to for security purposes.

According to your second link the "hd" parameter only tells you what domain the user belongs to, it does not tell you what workspace the user belongs to.

> You can avoid this issue by using a custom Google OIDC IdP configured for internal access only in your applications, rather than using a pre-configured public Google OIDC IdP

So Google offers an OAuth integration option that actually restricts access to your specific workspace. Choosing to ignore this option and instead integrating with the option designed for public access from all Google accounts, and then calling it a vulnerability when someone can login with an account from another workspace, is frankly, absurd.
A crucial point that is lost on this venture capital-funded forum: scummy garbage makes money. Taking sales people out for steak and whiskey makes money. Lying makes money.
