There a two dropdown menu options for "request desktop" in my Safari, in that menu. Translations might be imprecise because I use German locale. But one is in a section called "Website actions", then there's another

Sure, but which countries ban all advertising? Is a logo advertising? Or only advertising in media? Urban spaces? Sure I'd say, but what about your storefront? Encouraging word of mouth?

(edit; not directly responding only to your comment, also to the parent) Advertising is shitty but how would you realistically even make it illegal without violating free speech. Also, advertising does have a good-faith purpose in functioni

Nobody wants to cut the edge, when it comes to foldable phones, it seems. Also, more than 5 yrs after Galaxy Fold (I've never seen or held one IRL): is it really that valuable to have "marginless" foldable displays? Often tim

Is having padded version numbers with a leading zero a common thing? Wondering, sorry if it's a dumb triviality to ask. Is this even a (sub-)version number? I mean the major version is clearly 4.

It was supposed to be a provocative example for a situation that makes it very hard for someone selling something, more specifically, something immaterial, to judge what is an appropriate price for it. Of course nobody asks people they want

Rare != valuable. They are "betting" pennies in their books. Rarity equating monetary value is a common logical fallacy often found with stamps and other collectable cultural artifacts (details would disgress too much here, see Po

I thought about balancing the interests of those who have power, by all means short of war. And of course this begs the question who has power and who should have power. The will to improve living conditions comes from the interests of thos

Definitely. I don't know what was the umbrella term, but I did participate in a student exchange program in the early 2000s, as a teeanger myself. I doubt I'd have gotten to visit Poland without the EU so far (I'm not a frequ

I'd have preferred an article about entropy sources in general. The CF lava lamp is a cool curiosity, but also a marketing gadget. I'm afraid my perspective is skewed by personal experience, but I flagged this without clicking the

Poland has earned this. Reputation of Poland is amazing. And the people I've had the luck of meeting at a very early age during a student exchange lived up to that. Poland is an indispensable pillar of the EU, and integrates countries

It annoys me too, but is not unusual for journalism submissions here. HN sometimes likes to discuss texts that weren't published as a free contribution on some blog by a dev with lots of time on their hand. It's not forbidden to p

Does "artificial analysis" mean what it says? Dubious. But: I've been very impressed by the larger Qwen Models, and a brief try of Kimi also impressed me. A lingering sense of quality degradation when going deep remains. But

In the case of "thought to text", it's clearly the context, and the intent. When I write something, I deliberately curate my thoughts in order to convey an idea, often heavily depending on the context. Context encompasses the

Well, the text-to-thought direction feels less sci-fi, and combining both would amount to kind of telepathy. But sure, you're right. Reading is not a deterministic mapping of text to thoughts. Apart from the trouble of defining what a

If you can read JS and the user script is not huge, I think it makes a huge difference. Apart from that, there are APIs exclusive to extensions, e.g. instrumenting client-side communication among tabs with different origins, listing all tab
