bn-usd-mistake··on Turn off Apple Intelligence on macOS 27 and get its disk space back
Sorry, this one's on you. You denied your browser access to local network devices and then complain that it didn't have access to local network devices.

bn-usd-mistake··on Show HN: Moonshine Open-Weights STT models – higher accuracy than WhisperLargev3
I am looking for such an app. Main use case is transcribing voice notes received on Signal while preserving privacy. Please post when you launch :)
bn-usd-mistake··on Major European payment processor can't send email to Google Workspace users
I wish I had your confidence in life
bn-usd-mistake··on Major European payment processor can't send email to Google Workspace users
The log line is from Google Workspace which exposes it to its customers for incoming mail
bn-usd-mistake··on Fined $48k for using a jammer to keep commuters from using phones while driving
Wouldn't issues with cellphone network make drivers even more likely to get distracted from the road?

I'm talking about in practice, not the theoretic world where no driver ever uses their phone.

bn-usd-mistake··on Handy – Free open source speech-to-text app
Does anyone have a similar mobile application that works locally and is not too expensive? Mostly looking to transcribe voice messages sent over Signal which does not offer this OOTB
bn-usd-mistake··on Two billion email addresses were exposed
But aliases can be easily mapped back to your normal email address, unlike Apple's which are opaque. I, too, am afraid of vendor lock-in though. Sadly, couldn't find a good alternative yet
bn-usd-mistake··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
Aren't you just confirming the parent that Nextcloud is the big, feature-rich behemoth like Github?
bn-usd-mistake··on Grapevine canes can be converted into plastic-like material that will decompose
Paper straws are horrible, I don't think they should be chosen as a counterexample to skepticism about biodegradable materials.
bn-usd-mistake··on Lua for Elixir
Isn't Phoenix more like Django (rather than Flask) which would also generate multiple files?
bn-usd-mistake··on Show HN: Temp.pw
Encrypt password with a given key, send that to the server. Include the key in the `#fragment` of the URL to Share.
bn-usd-mistake··on Apple and SpaceX link up to support Starlink satellite network on iPhones
Garmin still has training readiness, training status, training plans, suggested event-based workouts and much longer battery life which makes them work better for endurance (hobby) athletes.

On the other hand, Garmin UX is horrible and the watch faces are utterly ugly

(saying as former Apple Watch owner and now Garmin FR 965)

bn-usd-mistake··on Why is it so hard to build an airport?
It was the same for me in my previous apartment. I remember we were even amazed on how closely a plane was flying above the highway shortly before we took the exit towards the apartment when initially visiting, but didn't make the connection to how that would affect the apartment.

In the end, it wasn't a big problem, we got used to it quickly.

bn-usd-mistake··on The weirdest bug I've seen yet
A single `.` matches exactly one character. `..` matches exactly two characters (not more, not less).

Any source for not being liable for income taxes at the time of receiving stocks? That seems like a very obvious gap (which is not present in many EU countries at least, here we are definitely liable for income tax when RSUs vest).

I thought the reason for delaying selling of stocks is to avoid capital gains tax, not income tax.

I did a quick google, and most sources seem to support that taxes are due at RSU vesting time, e.g.

> With RSUs, you are taxed when the shares are delivered, which is almost always at vesting. Your taxable income is the market value of the shares at vesting.

Why would this be different for the salaries of rich people? Isn't it more that they usually get large amounts of stocks at low prices if they stick with the company for a long time?

bn-usd-mistake··on Ask HN: What is your preferred “full-stack in a box” solution and why?
I'm trying Hotwire for a personal project and have really been enjoying it so far, but it is very different from what I'm used to (more SPA-y frameworks like React + JSON API). My main fear is that I'm tying myself too much to Rails-specific libraries and that upgrades and migrations will be harder.

Pretty sure that gp made a joke about the weather in UK
bn-usd-mistake··on Future of DeepSpeech / STT after recent changes at Mozilla
Why? Should we apply the same logic to Linux? Why should we arbitrarily restrict user value because something costs money?

Isn’t the main problem that users are not willing to pay for the browser they use?

Google Chrome is probably maintained by much more than 12 people, so if we restrict Firefox to that, everyone is just going to move to Chrome anyways.

bn-usd-mistake··on iPadOS
It has much more than 4 functions when in landscape mode, including braces and powers
bn-usd-mistake··on ProtonMail Voluntarily Offers Assistance for Real-Time Surveillance?
Just want to clarify that German courts are allowed to issue European arrest warrants, just the prosecutors are not allowed to
bn-usd-mistake··on Fortnite and the Good Life
You’re talking about Fortnite Save the World which as far as I know still has loot boxes. Fortnite Battle Royale (i.e. the successful one that actually matters) never had loot boxes.
bn-usd-mistake··on Coolest Things I Learned in 2018
The German "sonder" referred to in this branch of the conversation (i.e. meaning special) is not a word on its own but a prefix for other words [0] (remember that germans like to build words from multiple separate parts and words).

While "sonder" itself is a word, it means something different when used on its own (without) [1].

bn-usd-mistake··on Electron 4.0.0
I assume this is due to a web limitation: Discord has system-wide push to talk (I.e. system wide shortcut) only in the electron app, not in the PWA.
bn-usd-mistake··on 8K is now being broadcast in Japan
It's 200 MPH, not KMH. Going ~320 KMH is not absolutely common on German roads
bn-usd-mistake··on Why Static Websites Need HTTPS
It doesn't because Same-origin protects data on example.com, not on the embedding page (in your example). It is not a security measure that aims to prevent the issue mentioned by the grand parent post
bn-usd-mistake··on Why Static Websites Need HTTPS
Same-origin is the other way around, it protects evilcorp.com from being called by non-https.com. So a simple CORS setup on evilcorp.com would indeed allow you to send all user data by MITMing non-https.com
bn-usd-mistake··on JS Paint – A web-based MS Paint remake
This is awesome! Please consider adding a license so we can self host it [2] Github has a helpful website [1] on choosing a license, I personally like MIT but it's your choice and there are plenty of options :)

bn-usd-mistake··on Ask HN: How do I dress better?
It was the same for me when I started my internship and now transitioned to full time. I found [Ashley Weston](https://ashleyweston.com/), who is according to herself a celebrity mens' wear stylist. She has a good set of essentials which I basically all bought (except for the suits due to monetary reasons) and I think this has really helped me.

I am not affiliated with her or whatever, just follow her advice myself and enjoy her content.
