That issue exists with the current proposal as well or any proposal that leaves the enforcement on the website.

I think in addition to what OP said, the browser/device should let you set hard domain-level filters which are enforced by the browser/device.

This will not be ideal for applications / sites with mixed content, but gives the parent / guardian more control.


I would pay for a solution that aggregates these alternative payment systems that aren't tied to VISA and Mastercard and their rules.

Wero, RuPay, WeChat Pay / AliPay, Crypto (through 3p like coinbase or directly), etc.

And handles them in nice and unified API, with hooks for subscriptions, etc. (taking into account that some payment methods do not support recurring payments, so there should be some hook to send an email to the customer to renew manually, etc.)


Yeah, after looking more into sqldef and alternatives I stumbled on Atlas too and I like the explicit support for migration based flow for exactly the same reasons. I want to know exactly what kind of migration will be applied to my prod database beforehand.


> EU might be looking to do what China and Russia did earlier on and start cracking down on foreign social media

For some reason you forgot to mention "Like the US did with TikTok".


that was decades later, but yea I don't think for a second that was justifiable - not even considering that China had completely closed shop for America decades earlier and this was a 1-way openness relationship for a long time; they could have sold this as a reciprocity issue but they didn't

esp. when America already controls the main outlets through Android Play Store and Apple Store, and yep, they have proven to control them not just happen to host them as a country

arguably America did have valid security concerns with Huawei though, but if those are the rules then you cannot complain later on


The old “Rules for thee but not for me”.


Even earlier: PokerStars.


Actual Greek yogurt will have 8-12% of it's weight in protein.

Another option might be curd / quark (differs a lot per country).


Quark is also simple to make. 1 part buttermilk to 4 parts milk (3% or better), ferment it at 40 degrees C for 20 hours, then strain it overnight.


Is there yet a low friction way to verify age of UK users that doesn't rely on third party services with questionable privacy implications and exorbitant pricing?

I wonder if any of the law makers are investors in those companies.


Questionable privacy implications are the feature, not the bug.

Surely three-letter agencies, "unknown creators" of chatcontrol proposals in the EU and other state psychopaths care very much about the children!

No, they don't.

Mass surveillance and the leverage coming from that is the goal itself.


Does Microsoft let you encrypt the key with your password / passphrase (with a backup you can write down)?


Technically it is possible to configure butlocker using passphrase instead of a TPM. It is not easy though. It is configured via GPO. However it is not a local account password. It is a separate passphrase which you need to provide early in boot process, similar to LUKS on linux systems. It works on windows computers without TPM, i’m not sure is it supported on systems that actually have TPM available.


To be clear, GLM 4.7 Flash is MoE with 30B total params but <4B active params. While Devstral Small is 24B dense (all params active, all the time). GLM 4.7 Flash is much much cheaper, inference wise.

Okay, but why isn't it visible in /news

This post is ranked 7th in /active, now. Quickly cross-checking /active and /news, I've found no other post in /active not visible in /news. It went from 100 to 200 points, since I noticed the delisting. /active is an obscure list, I doubt, that's how many people find this post.

Whatever HN is doing, it seems to be completely intransparent and selective. Some A/B-ing, or geofencing. In any case, questionable and manipulative. Like they are trying to hide interference and engineer popularity/engagement to whatever end.

And you have to wonder, if this has anything to do with the fact this particular political move seems to have greatly backfired on every possible axis, apparently even within the conservative and MAGA base. May turn out as exceptionally stupid, especially before midterms. I've seen impeachment calls in /r/conservative (lol), and they are usually an extension of Trumps digestive system. Diplomacy with Europe is basically dead, France wants to trigger the EU's extortion clause and it's a sunday.

Maaaybe there is active damage control going on.


HN moderation routinely demotes politically charged threads so that they don’t show at the top of the default front page all the time.


It's not demoted, for all I can tell, it's gone. In any case, pretty shady to do this covertly.


If it’s “gone” then it’s because too many users flagged it. You can turn on “showdead” in your profile to see them again. It isn’t done covertly. You can email hn@ycombinator.com about specific posts to get an explanation.


Have that option set. It's not marked flagged, or dead.

See, the weird thing is how quite many people found their way here after it got delisted.


So it’s not actually gone? Again, instead of speculating, send an email if something is unclear. Yes, moderation is purposefully selective, but not based on political agenda. Dang has repeatedly explained moderation policy in the past.

This blog post has some information: https://drewdevault.com/2017/09/13/Analyzing-HN.html


> So it’s not actually gone?

It is? Dude, just check yourself, instead of sealioning?!

It's in /active, not frontpage or 15 pages in as stated above. It's not marked anything, which would also show next to the title of the post itself. So what's your fucking offense? If all of this is of no concern to you, why bother commenting? Yeah, thanks for pointing out I can write mails somewhere. I should also write my representative and call the embassy. And sorry, I haven't read every thread ever to know what Dang said at some point in the past. Well, what did he say about opaque visibility manipulation? How about leaving a message in respective threads?

I was just pointing out there is intransparent, weird censorship for this post. I don't care as much about the alleged reasons. People should be aware this is a covertly distorted discussion.
