ChatGPT recently suggested a fix for a buggy service worker I have and it worked perfectly. I am eternally grateful.

Interesting idea. Rather than guess which article the dealer is the funniest, however, it might be better to guess which one the dealer will find more interesting.

I've heard this over and over on HN in recent years and I simply don't understand it. Almost any Google search I run has just what I am looking for as the first or second choice. Google frequently knows what I am looking for after I type in the first few words of the search! Are HN people not logged in when they search?

I'm confused. Would this mean I could just grab anybody's public key and log in - as them - to a service that supported this?

I'm fascinated by this idea: " It would be possible, for example, for the state to obtain an automatic share of the income from the intellectual property it protects." Why shouldn't creators of IP pay for the protection they receive, beyond the relatively small filing fee they currently pay?

After reading this, I tried out Firefox for Android on my old Nexus 7 tablet. The performance improvement over Chrome is significant. Chrome simply can't be run on low-RAM devices any more, IMHO.
