WEI won’t even stop the bad bots. They will simply use "legitimate" devices.

Consider this scenario: - Content sites implement Web Integrity API to block bots - But they still allow Google crawlers, because Google is their source of traffic - Google competitors are locked out How do attesters solve this problem?

Not only adblocking, but also crawling. They want to kill competition.

How does that work? The binary format embeds variants of the same program?

Maybe JIT compilers can take profit of this immediately, since they target a single machine?

Not only Reader, but also the RSS support in Chrome and Firefox (whose Google used to be the primary source of funds). And Feedburner.

Google would do anything to make it harder for others to crawl the web. Killing RSS was part of that strategy. News sites will implement these DRMs, but of course they will still allow Google because it is their source of traffic. Alternati

If you sell stable coins for USD and make a loss, you can write it off.

I feel that the joke may be about the implementation, maybe not the whole concept.

My understanding is that people don't invest in stable coins (like you don't invest in USD when you have USD on your brokerage account). Stable coins can be exchanged against other crypto currencies on chain. So if you are willing

I love this color scheme. I’ve just replaced the yellow color with some shade of blue, and it’s perfect.

The article is well written and Haskell appears to have what’s necessary to work efficiently with algebraic data types (matching and overloading). But in the end, it’s just fancy words for union and intersection types, or am I missing somet

This would work if cookies was the only way to track people. There is also localStorage, ETag (and other cache-oriendted methods), fingerprinting, owning a browser, etc. What we need is a low that forces websites to obey the "do not tr

"Is this a memory safe language" should be a critical question for any external facing application, too

by fooyc 5y ago
Cookies are not the only way to tack you. Websites can track you with localStorage, ETag headers and other cache-based methods, etc. Some methods don’t event require any persistence on the client side, e.g. fingerprinting.

I totally agree that this should be a browser setting. However it’s not only about cookies: What we abusively call the cookie law and cookie popups are about tracking, and there are many ways to track you without cookies, some of which are
