Asuchug4··on Elastic 7.9
I read it as: we are working hard, so that the Kibana JS bundle is over 100MB before compression. I have 6.x and 7.x installed side by side and loading "discover" tab with clear cache takes 3.5s on old one and 14s on new one.
Asuchug4··on Show HN: Unscreen – Automatically remove video backgrounds with ML
Somehow I parsed the title as next-gen adblock. Well, it is great to see the required technology is already here.
Asuchug4··on Air travel’s sudden collapse will reshape a trillion-dollar industry
There is no automatic process but it common to add cars for events, school trips or other organized groups.
Asuchug4··on Intel Ponte Vecchio GPU Will Be Made on TSMC 6nm Process, CPUs Could Be TSMC 3nm
This move might be bad for protecting margins but is great for protecting business - AMD will have to pay more if TSMC is using 100% of its production capabilities.
Asuchug4··on Amazon Warehouse scam: 16TB HDD swapped for 8TB, returned for full refund
Does it matter at all? Won't the item be shipped from closest amazon warehouse regardless of site used?
Asuchug4··on Ask HN: Is it just me? why is “news” so addictive?
You ask that on site that is as minimalistic as possible and still has buildin 'noprocrast' option. Clearly people can't stop checking the news.
Asuchug4··on What if you abandon your smartphone?
Is is really possible? How do you deal with banking and 2FA? SMS are not safe.

Asuchug4··on Dwarf Fortress Creator Explains Its Complexity and Origins [video]
DFhack already modifies many parts of GUI. Changes in trade window or construction building(floors/walls) are so convenient I refuse to play new DF release until dfhack is able to support it.
Asuchug4··on Massive spying on users of Google's Chrome shows new security weakness
It is almost a 'stopping problem'. You can send any data by sending GET with data encoded in url path, without any query string. How is any sandbox supposed to detect if you are sending data or really just getting information (like updating adblock list).
Asuchug4··on Seven years later, I bought a new MacBook. For the first time, I don't love it
Why would you need to love a computer? It is just a tool. I don't except a new model to change my life.
Asuchug4··on Reddit rolls out community currencies on Ethereum
Yeah, this is what reddit needed - now bots will keep reposting content not only for Karma(and they are coping whole comment trees, not just main submission) but for real money (or at least something tradeable for $)
Asuchug4··on Bitcoin Halving Just Occured
Oh great, another site that servers machine translation of content. So I get "brownie" instead of "hash", that makes page so easier to understand. The only worse offender is the Google Play store, the autotranslated description actively prevents me from understanding app description.
Asuchug4··on Instead of deleting account, NYT appends ‘1000’ to username and email address
Depends on type of data and other laws. If you are a paying customer you can assume your data will be stay in database, until it is no longer required for audits. GDPR allows for anything that is 'absolutely totally required for providing service'.
Asuchug4··on Ask YC: We applied to S2020 and nobody looked at our videos?
Why not? YT view counter is famous for being stuck on some low value like "300" when thousands of people are watching. It just isn't something worth updating in real time.
Asuchug4··on GoPro cuts workforce, changes sales strategy
Before buying Hero 7, I watched a lot of reviews and tried to decide between older but still powerful Sony action camera. The quality was great, but sometimes GoPro decided to freeze. It is very annoying to find that your camera stopped recording 20 minutes ago. I thought that my model might be just a bit faulty. Then comes the GoPro 8, and the improvement noted by few tech reviewers was that it no longer freezes. Totally destroyed any trust in reviewers I had left. No one told a thing about freezes in Hero 7.
