Fast forward, and a few years from now, developers will have to sign their app with some EU bureau, otherwise it won't install anywhere. It's a choice about from whom come the restrictions. I don't like how much EU mandates a

I don't understand why people don't use alternative mail clients to avoid that? Is the Gmail app the only one that is good enough? If so, and if it is essential to you, just go with the bundle (Gmail, Chrome, etc). (FWIW, I left g

I've used Linux as a daily driver for 6 months and I am now back to my M1 Max for the past month. I didn't find any reply mentioning the easy of use, benefits and handy things the mac does and Linux won't. Spotlight, Photos a

I've never had this issue. M1 Max. But I also disable some of the Spotlight indexes. Cmmd+Space has no files for me, when I know I am searching for a file I use Finder search instead.

Awareness is more important than government regulation. Assuming you are a parent, we as parents should be more concerned and help our kids grow with a healthy relationship with aggressive marketing and addictive features, by actively avoid

Government will do a terrible job at it. Society lost the capability of creating good and simple laws that can be disputed on courts based on law intention. Instead, laws nowadays are full of details hard to understand that attack the sympt

Dumping Gmail is a long process. I've had people sending to my old address for 5 years. Better start sooner than later.

I believe the whole point is that some people inside acknowledge the issue, made leadership aware of it, yet, youtube still pushed sorts aggressively. The documents are prof of awareness, so they can't pretend they were unaware of the

Instagram has it as a tool, not as default. You need to actively go, find, and enable timeframes for it to alert within your rest period.

I hope they end up removing HDR from videos with HDR text. Recording video in sunlight etc is OK, it can be sort of "normalized brightness" or something. But HDR text on top is terrible always.

I believe you are speculating on digital mastering and not codec conversion. From the creator's PoV their intention and quality is defined in post-production and mastering, color grading and other stuff I am not expert on. But I know a

RIP electron apps and PWAs. Need to go native, as chromium based stuff is so memory hungry. PWAs on Safari use way less memory, but PWA support in Safari is not great.

What you just said can be applied for any sides of any infrastructure political discussion. If we leave nuclear waste (which is already proven not problem over and over) the next generations will come up with solutions we don’t know yet. If

Year over year we see the same discussion: one side say we can’t get to environmental goals without a lot more nuclear. The other side says renewables will be enough if we just [insert trending unproven excuse]. Anyone watching it closely c

My guess to why he banned it now is that before he was more moderate against woke or left in general. Now that he is more openly and harshly targeting woke and Fauci, it becomes a bit more hazardous to have it up. But this looks bad. He sho

As times passes I am less supportive of how companies use ideology to weaponize regulations in order to slow down competition. How fast the COVID vaccine was created is a bit of uncovering how fast it could go when people are willing to com

If there is no provision on L1 for early termination, then the rules of this particular type of visa are entirely broken and needs fixing. I understand the reason L1 exists, I actually lived in the US under L1 myself, but there is no excuse

I would agree ethically, but unfortunately this would open a hornets nest of small fraud and abuse. On a way smaller scale, here in Brazil, every single rule that was made to protect "too much" the employee is largely exploited an

crypto has a lot of traits of a bank without the bank. Fast transactions (as opposed to carrying money to different locations), secure storage (as compared to having guards for your hoard of gold), it does not rot/burn (if you backup k

Nope. Crypto does work. Day trading is a problem of the old system that requires the old system tech to work. Assets should be valued for their properties and for their scarcity (amongst other things), and not by trend waves amplified by da

It is unfortunate and no creditor should be exactly "happy" about the situation or completely satisfied with the outcome. But everyone early on crypto knew there were some risks involved. And there is a chance you, or other credit

Is it just me, or anyone else is feeling all of the examples of grain simulation (I even followed links in the comments here on HN to papers and plugins) all feel a bit "off" in comparison to real film pictures? Probably film enth

The reason to prefer grain would also be a good question. The recent return to analog photos we are observing recently might be caused by a shared preference for grain and other aspects of the film process. I was going to suggest this prefe

If the above is true, it is sad and OK at the same time. Sad because it is wasted work and wasted human potential (imagine same money applied to voluntary work, social contributions, etc). At the same time, it generate jobs, which is not ba
