xcancel? What is the purpose or benefit of providing a free mirror to x? Doesn't it end up sparing the x servers and causing their costs to decrease?

I prefer xcancel in part because Twitter doesn't let you view replies etc when not logged in.

Guessing x loses ad revenue when traffic goes to xcancel.

my screen is 60 percent banners about cookies and account creation when I use x

I clicked expecting some catalog of data structures but it was a pleasant surprise.

That Synth Player and Chord ID seem to be killer features on Logic Pro. Are they recent additions? Do they work well?


It's not released yet.


It may seem irrelevant for some, but I wonder: will they still offer the laser-etched titanium card instead of plastic?


It was really the only reason I considered getting one. I suspect this will be relevant to more people than you might expect- iirc it's the only titanium (metal?) credit card you can get without an annual fee.

The root cause for the low affordability seems to be that most people don't want to sell a house purchased at 3% interest and have to pay for a new one at 6%. That and zoning restrictions too contribute for the lack of supply.


There was a huge affordability problem 4 years ago when the rates were 3% too, so that’s clearly not the “root cause”. In fact, at the time HN was filled with people blaming the “free money” 3% rates for the lack of affordability…


LOL, you live in California? The past affordability you are talking about was not universal. There were plenty of people happily buying homes after moving out of CA to other states.

Anyhow, interest rates are the root cause now. Who in their right mind would do the trade I've described?


In my area the zoning is ludicrous. Need to walk 4 blocks to visit my corner store. Tall skinny townhomes that nobody wants and go unsold for months are the only allowed high density option - with no stacked flats.


Reads very much like the Drudge Report, just needs the same diagramming style.


The cat gap is due to the long time it took for the mutant descendants of Noah's cats to get to America.



First off, what kind of SVG reader does cloudflare assume to just open SVGs and Willy nilly run contained js? Is that a windows os feature? Second, do they not know about Content Security Policies?

And as a side note: Cloudflare itself is considered harmful


"Since SVGs are essentially code, they can embed JavaScript"

Odd thing to say. Everything on a computer is "essentially code", executable or not.



I have spare black powder. Time for a weekend project.


I bet "spare black powder" is one of those sentences that automatically puts you in some kind of list at some 3 letter gov agency.


It's fine, my country only has 4 letters gov agencies ^^


"Señora Benitez venga con nosotros... Que? A mi no me importa cuántas letras tiene nuestra agencia? Inhalar tanta pólvora a debido de afectarle el cerebro!"


That's funny but nope, not this country either. Anyway my stock is below the legal limit.
