Stop using link mutiliating tools!

What will be the next? I will be unable to see the domain of a link on hover/longtap and have to trust random links like on a search engine?

MUTINY against hn!

rsa is prime factorization, bitcoin is elliptic curve ps: elliptic curve or breaking sha256 "bitmixing"

Where is a comparing site where the exact same subject and lightening used? Why https://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3 stopped it? I can only find these "trust me" reviews.

This article is doing comparisons with the same subjects and lighting…

azatom · 2026-09-21T08:52:47

No.

The site IS the one calculated score and calming marketing. I am not sure what you are referring:

- the studio photos are not provided

- those seemingly same images have slightly different angle what is actually a huge difference, AND only for 2-3 phones, not for all

PS: e.g. different clouds on the portrait example: huge dynamic difference

James Hetfield used to do a lot of portraits with lightning, what with the band logo and all: https://fineartamerica.com/featured/james-hetfield-ride-the-...

But recently he seems to prefer fire or stadium audiences in the background.

clicked, ctrl+f ssd, hdd, not found, closed

The new machine - I mentioned in the other thread - has both HDDs and SSDs so tests with mixed topologies are planed.

azatom · 2026-09-19T21:29:27

In filesystem subject a proper critique is mentioning ssd vs hdd. I did not added value for karma increase, but karma lost? Who haven't I wished a happy birthday?

it is like "my fridge is 2mkm (millikilometer) from my desk" m=0.001 h=3600 it should be just Ws or just J

What’s wrong with milliwatt hours?

It's on you bc it was (arguably but still) dead 17 years ago.

edit: don't get me wrong, i am not here to hate java, but bc i am also ... hm necrophil :)

taspeotis · 2026-09-15T13:43:05

17 years is a rookie number. Take C# auto-properties, for example: 19 years ago!

Now try asking, "When did Java get auto-properties?"

azatom · 2026-09-15T15:31:39

I never cared about those kind of syntax sugars. I was happy with IDE/static checkers, lombok, mapstruct, etc.

I missed generators like that virtual threading for example.

btw: i was referring a single point when oracle bought sun and "closed java".

News at 11.

Language that runs on the explicit design philosophy of letting other languages experiment first and then incorporating their lessons learned once the dust has settled is late to implement a feature.

That signature contains time and optionally gps coords, and taking photo of a screen is not simple. So overall does solve some problem

ps:most important: cam/lens settings also in the digital sig, what for a screen is different

> Why do they insist on every new phone being bigger than the phones before them?

Others wrote complicated or bs jokes, here is my SIMPLE tip:

It has to change otherwise people would not buy new. Size can not change randomly so it has 2 ways: decreasing and later it becomes an iwatch, and tablet becomes a phone: this is stupid because harder to increase price.

So increase it is. If you do not like it, use a watch+earpiece as a phone.
