~10kb of that are for the client side search library ("lunr") and 50.7kb for that searchs index. So around 2/3 of the whole first load size are "just" for the local search feature.
The remaining 30kb split up in ~7kb of additional javascript, 16kb of stylesheets, and 7kb of html (content, markup, inline styles & scripts).

I am surprised by the amount of CSS, 109kb uncompressed but minified is a lot of styles for a rather simple design, but I guess its the "just-the-docs" standard and thus somewhat verbose by being generic.
Putting this into perspective in the age of LLMs:

The bigger the model the better the embedding, so one could take the middle activations of large language models and use that as embedding but using smaller models is often good enough and more performant.
Free speech doesnt have asterisks. If certain people say things that are undesireable to other certain people, they have to power to ignore them.

pjc is correct, this does provide real security; i.e. I cannot steal your card details and use them to order valuable goods sent to my address.

> With that power, everything is legal.

Although I agree, here I disagree.

In general, the Executive branch, the Intelligence Community, Congress, the Courts, the Populace are all responsible for keeping the President's Office accountable, both officially and extra-officially. Officially, via legal and direct means. Extra-officially, by means of protest, mounting cultural as well as mediatic pressure, etc.

In our, as Trump's actions have greatly affected the international community as well, situation what's most concerning is the initial, slow but eventually complete and absolute breakdown of public discourse.

Truth is irrelevant, poise is impractical, facts are an obstacle, outrage and drama are the new assertive communication. It's all about Me and My Emotions, us versus them.

This has been the case increasingly, for years, on both sides of the political aisle. Everyone compartmentalizes everyone into the sub-groups they are a part of, until everyone is so compartmentalized that they are completely alone because there are no similarities left for any common ground whatsoever. Such is the dystopic portrait of a society in complete disarray.

Under those circumstances, everything is legal, simply because there's noone to enforce the commonly agreed upon Rule of Law.
I'm not trying to be confrontational, but even "business logic" inside a project is often clearly separated between "library" and "glue, aka controllers or whatever" - and that's kinda the point where I disagree.

Not accepting "but the unit tests work" - 100% agreed. Not being able to slice it that the thing that could be accessed by the current public API or a different public API be tested on its own (and often relatively pure) is not how I want to write my software or tests.

In my career I have found IPv6 simply to be unnecessary. Running a network of 7 buildings with approximately 2,300 computers for now almost 2 decades and this is still true.

Setting edge routers to simply drop all ipv6 packets and running only ipv4 works, is simpler, is faster (than dual stack) and easier to troubleshoot.

I don’t have any inheritant issues with IPv6 other than is has failed to make a case for why people like me should bother rolling it out.

More than zero would be a start. You said it's not viable to give evidence of claims during a press conference, okay, but it's been a while since then.
There is so much censorship going on on Twitter through the use of dark patterns, that it's embarrassing to claim it to be something like a fortress of free speech.

There is plenty of criticism of Elon Musk coming coming from both sides of the political spectrum. I am consider myself right of centre and I hear plenty of criticisms of Elon Musk coming from the right. The complaints are completely different though.

The big problem with any of these discussions (especially online) is that a lot of people are intellectually lazy and assume the other-side is comprised of brain dead zealots who only support the most extreme positions.

And yet, he just did the most impressive turn on a economy on the run towards a hyperinflation ever seen.

There are a lot of things I don't like about Milei: this memecoin event is bad, but so is his political friendship with open self declared fascists, him being a libertarian. He is a populist. But about macroeconomics he is doing, at least, good. Anyone who refuses to acknowledge that minimum is simply a hater that doesn't want an honest debate. You can even argue that he did good at macro but bad at micro, and there is a debate. But to call the man "sheer utter moron" in macroeconomics is just wrong.

You are just argueing with the fallacy ad personam: instead of explaining us what policies were moronic, you say "the guy is a moron" and pretend that is enough to have a debate? And then you resort to the fallacy of association: Milei went to this University. I say this University is bad. Then Milei is also bad. Even 20 years after leaving the University and working in innumerable places (among them senior economist at HSBC), or authoring many academic papers. Turns out that https://www.topuniversities.com places the University of Belgrano at 465 best in the world: not impressive, but still of the 132 listed Universities of Latin America Belgrano is ranked the 18th.

If it is third rate and blacklisted, what about the next 114 Universities in the rank?

Do all these commenters believe this nonsense? The conspiracy thinking has reached new peaks. Hard to take concerns of free speech seriously from people promoting platforms that routinely “moderate” any dissenting opinions (HN included).

Our ability for collective sense making seems to be permanently destroyed. Two people who seem to agree on everything point-by-point then reach different conclusions on the final step. Its bewildering.
I have no idea who those people are.
I know very little about Milei other than a few articles I have read but as someone who has been visiting Argentina on and off for the last 3 years, it does seem to me he has at least stabilized the currency much more than previous admins? I remember the bluerate for dollars being double the previous almost every time I returned and has now stabilized at around 1200 per dollar. I leave no comment on the rest of his policies but that rate of inflation seemed extremely unsustainable so this is no small feat. https://bluedollar.net/

It is very simple:

1. Inherited rich kids like Elon often have a strong feeling that they are better then the rest of humanity.

2. But it turns out if you are a leech on society like that sooner or later people stop accepting that (remember: he pays less in taxes and gains more in government subsides than most people)

3. So in order for people not to turn against you sooner or later you need to keep them split into subsections that are in conflict with each other. The more split they are, the more wealth you can extract.

That is the age old strategy of divide and conquer and if you ever wondered why your political system seemed to be split down the middle 50:50, that is your answer: people with money profit from it being so.

You can not make Wikipedia care about your pet idea without working on it yourself, so the absence of information on something is more an issue with you than with the people that edit Wikipedia.

It is impossible to argue against you because it is an opinion. First of all there is not one "Wikipedia", second of all as politicians usually say "I can not comment on specific cases". There is some truth in that saying, you can only talk about the policy and the policy continues to be "neutral point of view". Considering the horribly biased alternatives to Wikipedia that has sprung up, I would say that Wikipedia is probably the best NPOV you are going to get.

Not at all, on a societal level the US has been increasingly constructed as a huge, intricate, Prisoner's Dilemma where everyone, allegedly, has all to lose and noone, allegedly, has a say in the matter, therefore everyone complies with whatever the system, or media, asks of them.

Everyone thinks they're the victim, everyone thinks civic duty is something the oppressor is responsible for, not them personally, therefore everyone is free to be an oppressor themselves.

This problem will be intensified whenever, as we've seen elsewhere, the military starts being transformed from within and sycophants are put in positions of power.
Of course it is bad.

It got put there because we are in the middle of a hype cycle where everything must use an LLM, and the 'tech leads' pushing it have the ear of the decision makers. Any criticism is parried with a 'Oh, this is fixed in the next version of (whatever LLM). They are adding a step that allows them to reason about their own output!'.

It's not that everyone believes it will actually improve the product, but it is what the customer wants to see right now. They've read about this revolution, and if their supplier isn't doing something with LLMs right now, they will get left behind. Doing something with an LLM will allow them to hook it into the innovation budget too.

So the zealots have free rein for now.
The good thing about these massive ships is that they take a loong time to sink.

Encryption and public keys. That problem has been solved for a long time, it just needs to be adapted for data granularity so that each service can be exposed to specific bits of data and actions that modify them within constraints.

The data lives on your machine, or in a pod controlled by you. This data would be "live" as long as the you like by continually updating encrypted values that are only decrypted using each service's public key. If you want to cut off access to the data, turn off the hose. From there, you'll need to rely on your local government if you require the service to purge existing data, but that's nothing new. I've described in great depth on this website before what such a system might look like. Only public keys and encrypted data are passed around.

Tim Berners-Lee is also tackling this problem with Solid.

Well that one will have to be done for any medicine, the problem is snake and spider bites are rare in the Global North countries [1], but pretty prevalent in Global South countries. That means that there isn't much money in getting antivenins through certifications, there are dozens of majorly relevant species and hundreds of lesser importance which means a ton of expenses even if the antivenins share superstructures, and we'd run into the same issue as with the Covid vaccines - the accusation of local populations that they will be used as testbeds.

It makes more sense if you think about it as something that they need to do in order to make sure that their marketplace attracts a wide range of publishing companies, some of which have very different perspectives on digital piracy, than as a way for them to retain a small percentage of revenue that DRM could theoretically protect.

> It's correct, but it doesn't support the point they're trying to make. The National Guard cannot be used for domestic law enforcement when under command of the US federal government. They can only do that when directed to do so by their state's governor.

But Trump provided zero details about how he might use the military. Zero.

He didn't say "i don't care about Posse Comitatus Act" or "I will personally deploy them as the Commander in Chief".

This is like someone saying "If I find out you stole my bike, I will come to your house and take it back" and people saying "oh my god, doesn't he know murder is illegal? you can't go into someone's house and kill them just because they stole from you!"

Assuming Trump will break the law when he nothing in his comments suggested he would AND he has legal channels with which to do it (send a formal request to a govenor), is not a reasonable nor logical thought process.

I don't recall the same hysteria when Obama said he was going to deploy troops to the Mexico border for law enforcement because of cartel violence.

https://www.army.mil/article/18189/obama_considers_deploying...

He even said he will "continue to do what's necessary to secure our shared border." Whatever is necessary?!? Doesn't he know it's illegal for the President to deploy US troops inside the US?

Amazing how the media gives him a pass and is happy to explain how he'll do it all legally, but Trump makes a comment and the media (and HN) assume he's breaking law before he's even done anything.
Are you seriously this delusional? All other messengers offer e2e encryption in one form or another and the "feds" can't request shit. The only difference is that signal does it out of the box, instead of being buried 20 layers deep in menus and unlike the other messengers(including telegram) is not false advertising and is a crime in the civilized world under data protection laws. So much for free speech(which btw is not news when it comes to musk and anyone with a functioning brain). Comrade musk is in a position where he can mass execute newborn babies on Time square in broad daylight and his simps and entire government will praise him.

The biggest exception to that is dead/shadow banned accounts. Requiring showdead (without much of an explanation what that is) to see some heavily-downvoted comments makes it rather difficult to engage with some people. Then again, I rarely feel the need to engage with dead accounts.

In terms of moderation, you also get to flag/vouch posts, so moderation isn't entirely binary.
