Like I've said before i don't necessarily think it's bad that they're raising the minimum age for these sites, but since when does that mean they have to check ids? There's been a minimum age of 13 for decades and that never meant you had to upload your id
I love this. Very cool that it made the front page and therefore has an entry for itself. I wonder if the summary could be updated again so that it includes a reference to itself in its summary of itself
Just saw this, i had to laugh because at first i thought you were talking about Mexico and was picturing something much worse than a bylaw with some fines for things like unauthorized street vending which the maximum is less than what you would make renting out your tent spot for a few days during the tournament
> As much as libertarians chafe against it, I think we've demonstrated that something has to be done in relation to children online
Just cuz today's ad-supported social media is bad for kids, doesn't mean everyone should have to verify their identity to use it. You can just make it 18+ and if kids lie to get around it that's not the end of the world. And in general, regulations that would make these things better for everyone would be better rather than just saying kids can't use it and not fix the actual problems with them
Wow this is smart politically because the largest group against this age verification bulls*t just so happens to overlap a lot with people who love open source software (technical people who value user freedom)
Of course this also means that the nerds who use linux or lineageos get to win cool points because they can access more adult stuff
Could just be a "follow the dominant political ideology so you feel included" thing as an evolutionary trigger to avoid being ostracized, which would cause this trend if the studies are being done around university campuses
Wasn't there a Chinese ai startup that got bought recently but the government wouldn't let the founders leave china? I think stuff like that would have an effect on valuation
I'm so used to macos now that I don't even realize that this is confusing. What OS did you use before, windows? is there no distinction between quiting an app and closing a window on windows?
I've noticed a lot of bad digital rights stuff on HN over the last couple weeks - more pushes on age verification, attacks on end-to-end encryption, and now this. Is there something about the time of year? Maybe because the world cup is coming and people will be distracted?
This was my thought too, but I didn't see anything to rule that out, did you? It says "built for Gemini Intelligence" so probably has some hardware requirement like that
I'm trying to understand why a company would pay $30/month for this, for an editor that's free or $10/month if you use their ai code completion model. Is it just so that you can prevent your employees from using zed's ai features on their own and avoid it sending your code to zed or other third parties?
I used it because of the integrated voice to text (since apple's built in dictation is terrible) but stopped using it when i replaced it with superwhisper
Is staring at a wall somehow better for productivity than looking out a window at something far away? Because the latter is much better for your eyes as far as I know
> Now we've got the best map app on the planet. We learned about persistence, and we did exactly the right thing having made the mistake
Does anyone here actually use apple maps? (Not counting when it opens by accident because apple opens it instead of google maps when you click on an address in calendar)
I liked the idea of the new layout with the agent thread on the left, it goes hand-in-hand with having multiple threads that are easy to switch between and running concurrently, but I switched back because my file tree disappeared and I couldn't easily see how to add it back
Out of curiosity, how many concurrent users could you get with a hosting setup at that price? If let's say 10% of those 1000 users were using it at the same time would it handle it? What about 30% or 100%?
His opinion is subjective obviously, but as someone who's switched to iphone I still miss the apps I gave up - specifically AntennaPod and OpenTracks. I believe the iphone ecosystem has the advantage that it has higher-paying users which is attractive to developers, but really it's just a matter of there being different market segments and depending on who you are (or who you aspire to be) you might fit better into one than the other.
