If the DoJ get's Google to divest from Chrome, wouldn't that also setup some precident to force Microsoft/Bing to divest from (the new chromium) Edge?

"You mean I don't have to build a search engine, pay for it's upkeep and engineers, AND you'll give me money?" - Tom Cook probably circa > 0 AD

Easy for google to measure their IOS mobile Ad revenue to justify the billions.

deafpiano··on Tell HN: ChatGPT cut off date now Jan 2022
Do you really want it to confidently answer that question based on a single article?

Easy solution, remove all that adware crap.

As a American, I write it as vice.
deafpiano··on NIS2: Europe’s Most Extensive Cybersecurity Directive to Date
So this isn't an official site from the EU, and is instead just a big add for a password management company https://uniqkey.eu/en_US/

As far as I can read in there as well the proposal hasn't been approved/ratified yet, so I don't know what fool is going to pay someone to prepare for a directive that isn't even official yet.

deafpiano··on Falling birth rate not due to less desire to have children
> The data in the study can’t explain why, but the results fit evidence indicating that young people today don’t think now is a good time for them to have children.

> "For those who are concerned about America’s dropping birth rates, this study suggests that there is no need to pressure young people into wanting more kids, Hayford said."

This article (and most quoting "low birth rate") are incredibly out of touch. How can you be shocked that in a world where a shooting might not make the news, our politicians don't hide their corruption, and you know, the climate crisis that we've seen coming and still choose to do nothing.

No I can't think of a single reason why "young people don't feel like it's the right time".

deafpiano··on FBI Looking for Hashflare Victims
only took them 7 years, great work!
deafpiano··on Tailscale Funnel
I was making a service that's half public hosted, and half on tsnet https://tailscale.com/blog/tsnet-virtual-private-services/ server the other day, and this is exactly what I was looking for.

Having an app that can setup its own completely secure networking no matter where it's run is game changing, as soon as I get into the alpha, the Cloudflare tunnel it's on right now is going down!

deafpiano··on Ask HN: Do you maintain a list of RSS links of GOAT blogs?
I'm honestly more interested in your cousin's goat farm then the original post of this blog now.
deafpiano··on ACM Opens First 50 Years Backfile
Should we really thank them for doing something that they could have done the whole time? They could make the entire catalog free and open to all if they actually cared about advancing the field.
deafpiano··on Ask HN: Should HN require/encourage job postings to have a salary range?
Maybe recommending it? I get the first comments resistance based on the variety of posters, having any requirements isn't really enforceable anyways.
deafpiano··on Show HN: The Brutalist Report – A rolling snapshot of the day’s headlines
really cool site, using it over HN top now for the general side of things, is this going to be open sourced or self hostable to allow people to customize it? Wouldn't mind tossing in a few qol life fixes myself if it was hosted somewhere like sourcehut or github?
