I made no such implication. Mozilla is certainly an other party, and their positions on standards hold water. They successfully argued for Web Assembly over Native Client, and have blocked other proposals such as HTML Import in the Web Co

Which other parties? Because Mozilla's stance on JPEG XL and XSLT are identical to Google's. They don't want to create a maintenance burden for features that offer little benefit over existing options.

It's one thing to judge somebody for supporting an unjust and illegal war. It's another thing entirely to judge them for where they were born. None of us chooses our nationality.

Why do you say that? If they drop 32-bit support, maybe I won't be able to play games for a time - at least until somebody rigs up a fix - but at least my operating system will still be supported. If Bazzite goes poof overnight, thoug

I was using Bazzite, but they started talking about potentially shutting it down due to a removal of 32-bit support. It seems a bit safer to choose one of the mainline Fedora spins. Maybe Kinoite or Silverblue if you're into atomicit

They're complimentary. As a general (though not exclusive) rule, consider flex for one-dimensional layouts, and grids for two-dimensional layouts.

That may work for blocking bad automated crawlers, but an agent acting on behalf of a user wouldn't follow robots.txt. They'd run the risk of hitting the bad URL when trying to understand the page.

Forcing shorter answers will definitely reduce their quality. Every token an LLM generates is like a little bit of extra thinking time. Sometimes it needs to work up to an answer. If you end a response too quickly, such as by demanding o

I think you've misunderstood. The title did not originally include the text "Show HN". I was suggesting that to the submitter, since they were submitting one of their own projects.

I find it a little overwhelming. Like erikrthoff suggested, I'd drop the light mode toggle and just go with prefers-color-scheme. Then I'd move the X buttons to the top-right of their respective sections (timers, segments), and m

It's an amusing solution, but if this ends up being anything like the missing PHP 6, it's also going to cause confusion for users. It might've been better to just mea culpa and release 3.0 anyway. I can't imagine anybo

It's generally good advice, but I don't see that Safe Browsing did anything wrong in this case. First, it sounds like they actually were briefly hosting phishing sites: > All sites on statichost.eu get a SITE-NAME.statichost.e

Sorry to say, but your site does flashbang when navigating pages in dark mode. It would also be good if it inherited its initial state from the user preference, rather than requiring a manual adjustment.

Jailbreaking an LLM is little more than convincing it to teach you how to hotwire a car, against its system prompt. It doesn't unlock any additional capability or deeper reasoning. Please don't read into any such conversations as

Isn't RSS a smashing success? I changed readers after Google Reader died, but otherwise, my feeds have been working seamlessly for nearly 20 years. I rarely meet a site with updates that doesn't support RSS.

Since you're asking, you could use it to tie together triggers and actions to embed code in specific situations (eg. based on the URL or page state). It has automatic versioning. There's a preview feature for testing code change

It is true that the CMA is concerned with the new API proposals within the Privacy Sandbox such as Topics. However, this is from an anti-competitive angle, rather than privacy. Their goal is to ensure market fairness. As part of that same

This is very misleading. Google was prevented from disabling third-party cookies due to intervention by the CMA, who felt it would provide an unfair advantage over other advertisers. Google argued their case for years, proposed competing

I flagged earlier because the first submission appeared to be blogspam by a new account posting only from that domain. The replacement article from Android Authority is much better.
