I have a question: Why did you choose Hacker News over redd.it ?

Is it because it is a better site (web) or is it because your "app" is also available as a windows installer, metaphorically speaking:

Redd.it has a app (android and apple store) which they push to mobile users.

SO MY QUESTION WOULD BE: "Ask me anything about video editing on the web"

Bro, i'am on the web on my phone

LOL = Lots Of Lols Lols = Lots of lols

its a fractal.

I am talking about what google outputs for a word. If you think about it Gooogle makes the battle for the meaning of a word more brutal than ever, as people look for words without context. If we were living in the old world this news would be insane, because whenever you would mention monster (the energy drink) or monsters (the game, at the game shop), the meaning would be clear by context.

In todays world there is no context, so i think Monster (the energy drink) is not being as irrational as it would seem by the tone of this news item

Nowadays when you search lol its always league of legends when it used to be lot of laughs*. They are afraid one of this games becomes super popular and when you search monster on google there is not a single monster energy drink to be seen

Edit: * or laughing out loud

This is such a backward way to make music. Sorry to be critical but the point of musical software is to help the musician, and not hinder him with complications

For example take a look at ableton live, it changed the music panorama worldwide because even a 12 year old kid from united kingdom can create grime music with it

It's not pixelated, like yours.

Beyond that it is mathematically evident that superstring theory is the biggest setback in the history of physics since the beginning of time. Never before has physics been stagnant for so long without making an important discovery (more than 70 years since the quantum theory of the particle wave).

Imagine, materials theory is the only branch of physics that hasn't been bogged down by money.

And this happens because if you write "superstrings" or "twistores" in the name of your scientific article, it is guaranteed that a university will subend your doctoral thesis. It is a complex system of corruption and scientific falsehood.

They all are against tiktok, because it works

Go to instagram and see posts about cats. Go to tiktok and see posts about you

I have seen it happen already, altough the technology is different
Google is the real social network

The two fronts of computer learning

Have you noticed that OpenAI is focused on intelligence that creates new content, be it pictures or explanations (gpt3)While most of machine training efforts are focused on changing existing truths?If a person is walking and you tell the computer to make that person be a different thing (a dog, a mailman, or a president) you are changing the truthBut if you say to the computer "Do a scene where...

Re:Hide all numbers that relate to dark patterns on Thursday December 22, 2022 @08:12PM (#34101171)
So the actual question is, is there a plugin that blocks html elements by selector and works correctly?
Re:Hide all numbers that relate to dark patterns on Thursday December 22, 2022 @08:09PM (#34101152)
The problem with ublock is that when you try to block an image: For example, I don't want to see recommended videos at side of youtube. I click the elements that make the text (Like video title, views) and it works! But when i click the thumbail of the recommended videos uBlock automatically blocks the SPECIFIC image (image url) and not the html element

So when a new recommendation video is loaded it is not blocked, because the url is different

Hide all numbers that relate to dark patterns

Is there a way to hide all numbers that lead to incorrect judgment of content?Number of followers, number of likes. Sometimes it's called "gamification"IN THIS WAY CONTENT WOULD BE NOTICED AT FIRST SIGHT, without the relevance of what other persons think of it."How hard could it be? just hide all numbers in every website"

The difference between the name of an old Incan town and a modern time plant identification mistake is that maybe the plant is poisonous.

Yes! Screen resolution on new Windows laptops is 150%.

This gave me trouble on my last job, a jira extension didn't work at 150%

(HAHAHAHAHA Jira.. i know)

soundtrap.com is the answer, mostly.
Re:Show HN: I'm building a browser-based DAW on Wednesday July 20, 2022 @09:53AM (#32165807)
Take soundtrap.com and make it more like Fruiti Loops (android apk)

Yes, many times youtube redirects you to old videos. So i don't think they will fix it
Re:Ask HN: Is YouTube hiding publish dates? on Tuesday July 19, 2022 @07:29PM (#32159318)
Sorry, i mean it's not broken. The only problem with the css is that you cannot see the publish date of a video, but everything else is fine
Re:Ask HN: Is YouTube hiding publish dates? on Tuesday July 19, 2022 @07:17PM (#32159232)
Yes, i am using big screens lately and the responsive css9 seems to be broken.. like a bad update?

Because it's the first time it's happened.

TLDR Change resolution / screen size

Ask HN: Is YouTube hiding publish dates?

I can't find the date of a published video anymore in youtube, or it's difficult (and wasn't before).I thought it might be an extension[0], but its happening on chrome on my laptop too.[0]: I had an idea to create an extension that hides every number >4 on the web, so that i am not bothered with "gamification".. but its not that
