cornegidouille··on Cybercriminals who breached Nvidia issue one of the most unusual demands ever
That's a good point, although they are threatening to release slightly more than just the drivers ("the complete silicon, graphics, and computer chipset files"). But the legal vs. illegal access is definitely interesting and probably not something they took into account. I don't see, say, AMD stealing from "publicly stolen" technology, I can't imagine the insane lawsuit that would ensue. Maybe some Chinese company might do it...
cornegidouille··on Ask HN: Any way to hide all posts from specific domains?
Here's a quick greasemonkey script I just whipped up that you could start from:

  (function(){
      'use strict';
      var links = document.getElementsByClassName("titlelink");  
      for(var link of links){
          if(link.href.includes("twitter") ){
              var owner = link.closest(".athing");
              owner.nextSibling.remove();
              owner.remove();
          }
      }
  })();

You would need to adapt the "includes()" to match any URL you don't care for.

You just brought an engineer to a scientist fight. In theory, what you're saying is wrong ; in practice, it's open to debate.
