https://archive.is/KF0iH (no annoying popups)

I generally open links in a new tab because browsers never seem to be able to consistently cache the previous page, so when I hit back it has to reload. A separate tab always avoids this. I even have a button on my mouse hardwired to Ctrl-W to quickly close these extra tabs.

Indeed. I'd always put swap near the beginning, then a small root partition, then the rest. This reduced head movement for often-accessed data, and used the higher bandwidth of the outer tracks.

On some channels YouTube consistently remembers my position server-side. On other channels, it reliably starts the video at the beginning if the tab gets reloaded, even if I was half way through. Often the video in thumbnails shows a red bar at the bottom, but still starts at the beginning.

I can either conclude that remembering your position is a very hard technical problem, or that YouTube's code is garbage.



Missed opportunity for it to be 1.21 GW. I'm sure they can add another reactor.

Great Scott!

But by a 16 year-old Mexican female?

At the very least they need to make public accessible all data collected about all employees and owners of Flock, and everyone in government agencies that contract with Flock. This means we can see all photos and videos of these people, every trip they make, etc. All searchable with AI, with no audit trail (just like it is for government agencies).

You seem to be missing a basic fact about how the world works: there are two classes of people, those who make the rules, and those who are expected to follow the rules. These classes are largely disjoint.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

— Frank Wilhoit


A guy who worked for the CIA and was friends with Kissinger in college. If you accept his definition uncritically, then you have some work to do.

There is indeed a Frank Wilhoit you're thinking of (died in 2010, active in political science and a professor at Drake University)

The Frank Wilhoit quoted in parent is just some random dude who posted a pithy comment on a blog post. so good news, you can engage with the quote without any Kissinger or CIA baggage.


You can engage with the quote if you disagree with it and have reasons it's wrong or you can deflect with an ad hominem.

Yet still, every now and then, a king is executed.

Get to work.

aka nobody will watch watchmen, by design.

All others will made to obey, if they don't? they will find things to punish you, literally


No, no compromises.

Including investor data since they are a YC company?

Same. I like seeing people who have made great tech houses and seem like nice people.

I've seen the insides of those automatic ones. If you think scooping lumps out of a normal litterbox is bad, try cleaning an automatic one out.

Clumping litter works surprisingly well. It's really a minor thing.


The litter robot is fine, it's just a turning globe that dumps into a box. The main issue is the sensors corrode so you have to pop the globe off and replace them. I just take it outside and hose it lol

That's what the Ask button is for with the summarize option, to not have to watch unnecessarily-long videos. Apparently it does connect to public hotspots, often run by major providers.
