unsignednoop··on JavaScript-Is-Weird as a compressor
is () syntactically important or could you use _=> to save a char?
unsignednoop··on Vimium – A browser extension that provides Vim-style keyboard controls
Remember when Opera had link search? Such a shame those features are dead nowadays
unsignednoop··on The Reaction Economy
Hurricanes can absolutely be controlled we just don’t have the tech yet
unsignednoop··on Rsync.net warrant canary
If rsync devs cared about brevity then we might of had a decent syncing client
unsignednoop··on Stanford's “Elimination of Harmful Language” Initiative
Yeah? I use it all the time
unsignednoop··on [dead]
If I wanted to read tweets I would be on Twitter. You guys don’t need to repost everything you see online to HN.
unsignednoop··on Apple Reports Fourth Quarter Results
Apple already solves this problem! https://imgur.com/a/HglsjJq (hovers around 78% on my personal machine)
unsignednoop··on Global media ask what's happened to Britain
1917 revolution jumps to mind.
unsignednoop··on Show HN: A new search engine UX I've been working on in my free time
Amazing idea, great work man. Just one suggestion; the filters should probably be at the bottom within reach of your hands.
unsignednoop··on Netflix will charge $6.99 a month for new ad-supported tier starting Nov 3 in US
where’s my damn youtube competitor Netflix? You’re capable and desperate for workable ideas, just commit already. You can even cut back on film production expenditure and send recording equipment to interesting content creators.

>Removed Domains

>The Government of Anguilla reserves the right to remove domains that are in its opinion hate speech or breaking any Anguilla law. There has been 1 such domain removed in the history of ".ai".

Curious if anybody knows which domain was removed, the FAQ doesn't elaborate.

unsignednoop··on Google search missing results other search engines have
[NSFW]

Not only do they lack results but they also unabashedly censor information. Try a search for “ how big should a cocaine line be?” on google vs bing. Its night and day which search engine actually tries to find results.

unsignednoop··on Cloudflare stood up to a patent troll and won (2019)
Any proof about being far-right? Looks like the claim was only added to wiki today.

unsignednoop··on Ask HN: What are the best-designed personal blogs you’ve come across?
I really like how the side notes and references line up on the right.

Evidently, yes

unsignednoop··on Show HN: Cronit – Online Cronjobs
Fyi: the cron.it domain appears to be available
unsignednoop··on Ask HN: Why has quality of YouTube reduced drastically?
>Who’s gonna stop them

Ive been thinking for a while that Netflix could. They desperately need to seperate themselves from the competition and they already have the video distribution tech and captive audience to launch a real challenge to youtube.

unsignednoop··on Ask HN: Do you ever use GPT-3 in anger?
Can somebody ask gpt3 who jack the ripper was? Time to get to the bottom of it.
unsignednoop··on The unlikely odds of making it big on TikTok
tangibly related: does anybody know how google and other search engines fair in indexing TikTok/Douyin?

I wonder if the inability to go viral relates to the difficultly of finding tiktok videos off-platform. Admittedly, every TT video I have ever seen has been sent to me via a share link.

unsignednoop··on The world needs a non-profit search engine
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaero
unsignednoop··on Ask HN: Where have all the forums gone?
People forget that google ad network banned forums (maybe they still do?). In our current heavily commercialised internet landscape people simply moved onto more profitable endeavours.
unsignednoop··on Is Google Dying? Or Did the Web Grow Up?
> Google heavily preferring "authoritative voices"

Exactly this. I think google could improve overnight if it were to add a “everything or official sources” button. As the article implies a “discussions” button would also be immensely useful.

unsignednoop··on Sega Saturn CD – Cracked after 20 years (2016) [video]
Disappointing that he didn’t elaborate on how the rom was dumped.

Also please check out the discussion on mil-cds here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18655524

Edit: found the scrambler algo for milcd if anybody is curious https://mc.pp.se/dc/files/scramble.c (google was useless thank heavens for kagi)

unsignednoop··on Resident Evil Village in the browser through Stadia
>SORRY. CAN'T DELIVER.

Can I just say that I adore Jenglish? These silly translations have become less common though with better translation apps available.

unsignednoop··on Yandex CEO resigns after being targeted by EU sanctions
I believe malware authors were using google alerts as an alarm system, so the hash functionality is probably gimped on purpose.
unsignednoop··on Yandex CEO resigns after being targeted by EU sanctions
This is actually the second time this has happened. Guess the EU really hates Yandex

unsignednoop··on IBM's Asshole Test
Just want to point out that exam (2009) is a great movie and everybody should watch it.

unsignednoop··on Alphabet Announces First Quarter 2022 Results
It’s funny you should say that because I was joking with someone the other day about google workspaces “the only thing google docs needs is a decent editor (vim),” but in seriousness, if you are referring to vbscript or macros then you are missing the market that google is aiming at.
unsignednoop··on Ask HN: How do I practically create wealth?
You cowards won’t even upvote this to the number one comment.
