> the July average where I live (about 40 km south of Oslo) this year was 18 C
Very jealous :D Unironically hate summer so much, July with an average of 18C° is like a dream
Makes me sad because I want to move to Norway in hopes of fleeing the German summer :(
(This comment was written before your edit, so no longer valid! :D)
I mean there are more than enough countries on earth kinda proving you wrong, no?
I am very shocked by this as well, although it also kinda feels like it makes sense, you know what I mean?
If this turns out to be as big as it sounds, in hindsight it will look very obvious, I feel like!
God do I hate websites that make you scroll to go through an animation, why do people still do this
Seeing Prejudice by Tim Minchin on the front page makes me very, very happy.
Love Tim Minchin <3
I don't no, but I can understand why others might.
For me it's very exciting and AI has been so far a crazy enabler for me. Both in my work and my personal life.
But I also enjoy keeping up with it and reading about it etc.
This looks cool!
My thought in OPs post was "Why now use Kiwix?" and Nomad seems to do! Also BYOM is better imho.
I mean it would be amazing if one day access to the internet could be truly free (from costs for users, and censorship).
But as the world is now, it's not feasible in any sense yet.
The current internet is the best we have and it >can< work, we have to find solutions inside the current possibilities until tech is advanced, cheap and accessible enough for everyone interested to easily host their own infra.
But this is not easy, because what is the real goal... really?
It feels like most of the internet is about making money or involving money, even from the end users. Is there even something to fix when most people don't care enough to ditch knowingly harmful products like Facebook, TikTok, etc?
That's the thing though, no?
Depending on the use-case, do you >really< need a global network?
Don't get me wrong, an uncensorable and free internet for everyone is something I am very much for, but when we start to talk about nations limiting access while information has to flow, the question is not about mass-adoption anymore, but rather seeing the right tools reaching the right people.
A good example of this, imho, is the situation in Iran, when they cut off the internet. Some people were able to help themselves thanks to VPN-like apps and outside help, but that is not the majority of people.
Can I just say that I love how you are also just always here the moment something drops lmao. Hope you're all well! The pelicans indeed are solid.
Honestly, pretty much this :')
Might be true, but that was not the point. The comparision was Firefox and Zen, not Firefox, Zen and whatever else is out there :>
The gif with the light switch is the cutest thing ever lmao
1) No they don't
2) Zen had them first
Firefox is "copying" from Zen, and I think that's good. I do like Zen, but I wouldn't mind having all the features in Firefox (and imho some of the UI lately in Zen is... weird)
> However, the level of social media amplification around this incident has brought scrutiny that is out of proportion to SSL/TLS’s place in our business
GOOD. RIDDANCE.
You cannot take these people serious. They should never ever touch something serious again.

from the youtube.com dept.
Yeah I certainly wouldn't give it access to that tbh
Can't tell if genuine or ragebait...
Simply insane. But honestly if anyone is using Facebook still that's on them.
I can't fathom how people still use it.
You've eaten up all the anti-China propaganda it seems like :(
>I think everyone has known that inference is profitable overall for the major providers for a while
Have you seen any place that is not as tech-savy as HN? e.g. some Reddit subreddits?
Barely anyone is aware other than people who are already somewhat deep into this whole topic.
That was such an amazing talk, thank you so much for doing it!!!
They're so butthurt about losing their social status of not being the top intellectuals anymore, I find it hard to take them serious.
Seriously, how can people read this and take it serious lmfao
