donkarma··on There are 2¹⁰²⁴ things you can do with a kilobit
Unfortunately, we have yet to represent code and data in perfect unison in the perfect format. I think the term for this is kolmogorov complexity.
donkarma··on Problems at Roblox
Roblox is extremely predatory outside of child grooming scenarios as well due to the fact that every game includes dark patterns in order to get them to spend money in order to progress because they won't get moderated. I imagine it would cause addictive behaviour.

donkarma··on Popcorn Time Is Back
would much rather just pay for Usenet quite frankly, seeing as I don't need 8K-REMUX-POOPFART copies of any film
donkarma··on Popcorn Time Is Back
Would love to see integration for this in media servers, or even Sonarr/Radarr integration for on-demand films and such
donkarma··on 40% of Google users now connect via IPv6
good, what does geo location offer aside privacy invasion?
donkarma··on Avalanche Energy Funded to Developing Lunchbox Sized Micro Fusion Reactors
but we don't even have regular fusion reactors that are power neutral yet?
donkarma··on Meta: We need 5x more GPUs to combat TikTok
is a recommendation engine that difficult?
donkarma··on Three Arrows Capital Files for Chapter 15 Bankruptcy in New York
Chapter 15 governs the provision of relief under US bankruptcy law to non-US companies and individuals in foreign insolvency proceedings that seek to protect their US-located assets from enforcement proceedings or direct appropriation by individual creditors.
donkarma··on Driverless robotaxi fleet paralyzed for hours in San Francisco
speaking without insane latency causing me to interrupt constantly and with full bandwidth? where do I sign up?
donkarma··on Microsoft will start banning players from all private Minecraft servers
is there a word for a big company buying a small company and then turning it into shit?
donkarma··on Tell HN: GitHub Copilot can now block suggestions matching public code
it's still GPL infringing
donkarma··on We are removing the option to create new subscriptions
I'd pay a lot of money for an Ethernet device that sits between the jack and the router that would make a tunnel for me. Is that what this is for WiFi??
donkarma··on Cloudflare had a partial outage
I wonder how long Cloudflare would have to be down for to have a noticeable change
donkarma··on Cloudflare had a partial outage
Yeah, using a Mullvad VPN with location set to France lets me access everything
donkarma··on Cloudflare had a partial outage
Do any of these corporate status pages ever work? AWS doesn't and neither does CF. This website is a more useful status page
donkarma··on Cloudflare had a partial outage
turns out having a central failure point for the entire web was a bad idea
donkarma··on The brain has a ‘low-power mode’ that blunts our senses
Muscle is only burned when you are out of fat.
donkarma··on UK plan to scrap cookie consent boxes will make it ‘easier to spy’ on web users
the cookie consent boxes were a complete disaster anyways, everyone doesn't care because everyone breaks the law by never adding a decline all button so it's just easier to accept all, tracking cookies should have just been outright banned.
donkarma··on Retrofitting Temporal Memory Safety on C++
well you don't actually have to allocate memory to keep it blocked do you? you can just have a page that isn't present and isn't actually backed by physical memory
donkarma··on Protecting Against Browser-Language Fingerprinting
Multiple people can share one IP
donkarma··on The Helios microkernel
Would love to contribute as long as it's going somewhere.
donkarma··on The Helios microkernel
is this a serious project or just a demonstration of the language's capabilities? If serious, would be nice to see some Plan 9 type stuff if on roadmap
donkarma··on Nuclear is back on the table for a green future
nuclear fission is actually the safest electricity generation we have right now, and modern reactors are pretty safe and are hard to cause to melt down even intentionally, all of this non-sense is mostly just fearmongering
donkarma··on Reverse engineering Skifree
Feel like it would be easier if he rewrote it from scratch and then copied the business logic
