Great find by the author and I have no trouble believing this is an oversight by Mullvad. Kind of shocking that something this simple slips by them but I could see myself missing it. Putting aside the IP correlation across multiple servers,

Google has been clear that installing apps through sideloading and from other app stores will continue to work as long as the developer went through the verification process to get their app signed. Source: https://android-develo

I know in some people's eyes saying this will make me a Google shill but this reminds me of the manifest v3 thing. What makes it to the top of HN is mostly clickbait a las "Google is cracking down on ad blockers" or in this c

I looked into this lately - Discord needs to use the Global Shortcuts Portal to do it properly but how is unclear. Discord is based on Electron which is based on Chromium. Chromium has support and Electron kind of has support since https:&

Can someone explain how banning ad blockers from Firefox would bring in money for Mozilla? I can see how it would bring in money for other actors such as news outlets, YouTube, etc., but Mozilla doesn't have a big website where they ar

My coworker recently showed me this plugin [1] that fades out all Rust code that is unrelated to the variable under the cursor. Think of it as a more powerful version of the "click to highlight all appearances" you can do in most

Yes, this is it. The idea that LLMs somehow write this deceptive code that magically looks right but isn't is just silly. Why would that be the case? If someone finds they are good at writing code (hard to define of course but take a &

I'm kind of happy that I did my maths courses just about before LLMs did become available. The math homework was the only thing in my CS studies where I sat sometimes 6+ hours on the weekly exercises and I always allocated one day for

I built my own web app to listen to full albums while allowing me to take breaks and switch devices. I really like to listen to albums from front to back but I found that at least YouTube Music doesn't remember playback position and yo

Songwhip allowed artists to claim and customize their page for a fee. Back then I looked into why Songwhip closed but couldn't find a definitive answer. I found a Reddit post where the original creator shared their site many years ago,

I miss Songwhip as well. We used to have a bot in our music sharing Discord channel that looks for links to any streaming platform and convert them to Songwhip links via the Songwhip API. The good thing about Tidal is that, like Songwhip, i

Unfortunately Ryanair left Frankfurt Airport. They consistently offered flights an order of magnitude cheaper than other airlines and I could reach Frankfurt airport directly by bus for free with my student ticket. This was the ideal way to

Interesting. I expected it to be near instant without syntax highlighting but it's still slow.

by tschumacher 2y ago
I'm pretty sure this is syntax highlighting. It's a known issue to be slow for large files in Vim because it is synchronous. Try starting Vim with syntax highlighting off: vim -c 'syn off'

I also burned myself on an overambitious machine learning project in the past. I had and still have little practical experience but I think I learned a common beginner lesson. Existing ML architectures apply worse to new problems than we th

I got this from an old HN comment I can't find anymore. I have this in my .bashrc: alias dotfiles='git --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME' And I init my dotfiles into a fresh home directory like this:

Congrats for building such a great site. I'm curious where OP is pulling the data from. I particularly like the Citydome [1] in Darmstadt, which is often showing movies in original language. [1]: https://allekinos.de/?c

Some post-quantum signatures like CRYSTALS-Dilithium are based on lattices. Makes me think that quantum key distribution (what I've been working on for the past 6 months) has a chance to actually become useful instead of being only of

I have the same gripe and in response published the notes to set up my self hosted email on my blog a few months ago [1]. It's really not that hard but yet we constantly see this topic on HN. I understand there are people who've s

I wonder where the pulse is with current GTK app development. I've noticed some of the newer core apps are in Rust like the new camera app and the image viewer, also the public transport app railway (not a core app afaik).

My sleep is very irregular but I always get enough. I tend to have trouble falling asleep but once I'm asleep nothing can wake me up. Some days I sleep until noon or I have to get up early but then take a nap later. I wonder if all the

Yes, this is inconsistent. When you zoom in 10 levels and then zoom out 10 levels again, pretty much all cells you see will be dead. But if you continue to zoom out further than 10 levels, you will see some mix of live and dead cells again.

My implicit suggestion was that clients make a GraphQL request not only before the first connection but before every connection. The gateway server can insert the keys into the kernel in response to an explicit GraphQL request instead of in

Sounds like a whole lot of effort to avoid a GraphQL request each time a flyctl client wants to connect.

Just out of curiosity because you might know: does the deviceorientation event (without absolute) work on iOS? Because I've just used it for a toy website of mine and have no iPhone to test.
