I guess I am. I genuinly am just a layperson trying to look at what the law would say, so everything is speculation.

But wouldn't that be like some company using gpl licensed code to host a code generator for something? At least in a legal interpretation. Or is that different?

those preroll "ads" are the alternative to mid stream ads.

My guess: to discriminate whether traffic is from a humam or bot to improve ad delivery metrics.

Missing a few things there: Reviews and working on linux, for example.

What is a hexagon if not 4 triangles in a trenchcoat?

Locks you out from viewing the site for a specified duration after looking at HN for up to a specified amount of minutes.

from the FAQ:

In my profile, what is noprocrast?

It's a way to help you prevent yourself from spending too much time on HN. If you turn it on you'll only be allowed to visit the site for maxvisit minutes at a time, with gaps of minaway minutes in between. The defaults are 20 and 180, which would let you view the site for 20 minutes at a time, and then not allow you back in for 3 hours.

HN actually has an anti addiction feature, namely noprocrast, in the account settings.

also, archive.org only verifies the current owner of the domain for takedowns. So if a site was hosting content, that content was archived the site then shut down and someone else acquired the domain, the new owner could request the removal of the old content.

Also, it seems like piracy is still yhe superior form to watch it over YT because, quite frankly, YT's quality is crap.

Mostly contained to tourist areas though. But AFAICT, it's been spreading recently.

Couldnt you just set a cookie and send a redirect back? Avoiding the need for js.

In f# you can use a single case discriminated union to get that behaviour fairly cheaply, and ergonomically.

Oh I assumed that was just me/because of a linux OS.

Because the default windows search actually iterates every folder/subfolder, rather than using the global file table, which "everything" uses

So you have to drop and re-add a column when adding foreign keys?

Email: Use the email on my profile, the email I posted here is now getting tons of spam

I have about 8 years of experience in software dev in total, looking for a non-senior position.

Seems like essentially the same threat vector as with NPM.

Not quite related: I never heard of clawdbot before, so, I guess TIL that's the bot my website keeps getting requests that are obviously malicious from.

or DRM for old games that check stuff like the cd being present

It just has to be good enough to be able to deliver the service.

Their moat, for now, makes this possible.

"maintain" meaning keeping it somewhat workable or actually improving it?

ATM windows still has enough of a moat that they can comfortably do the former.

Because they no longer see windows as anything more than a delivery platform for their subscription services, IMO

> AI has the potential to do something similar for cognition. It's not very good at it yet, but externalised cognition has the potential to be transformative in ways we can't imagine - in the same way Socrates couldn't imagine Hacker News.

Wouldnt the endgame of externalized cognition be that humans essentially become cogs in the machine?

There's a quite fun, related, series about doing "Linux from nothing" https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkoRSCZZILDO-YU9Ct-Ke...

Sadly only 4 videos so far.

Reminds me of that one messed up game[0] in 17776[1] (which I highly recommend reading from the start) Specifically in that the rules for an entirely different kind of game seem to have grown out of control.

A simple "how do I access x in y framework in the intended way" shouldnt require any more context.

instead of telling me about z option it keeps hallucinating something that doesnt exist and even says its in the docs when it isnt.

Literally just wasting my time

I didnt build my car either. But I understand a bit of most of the main mechanics, like how the ABS works, how powered steering does, how an ICE works and so on.

Mostly chatgpt because I see 0 value in paying for any llm, nor do I wish to gice up my data to any llm provider

And I don't want to use tools I don't understand at least to some degree. I always get nervous when I do something but don't know why I do that something

So far, eqch and every time I used an LLM to help me with something it hallucinated non-existant functions or was incorrect in an important but non-obvious way.

Though, I guess I do treat LLM's as a last resort longshot for when other documentation is failing me.
