🔥 Explore this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: The future of intelligence is being set right now, and the path we’re on leads somewhere I don’t want to go. We’re drifting toward a world where intelligence is something you rent — where your ability to reason, create, and decide flows through systems you don’t control, can’t inspect, and didn’t shape. In that world, the landlord can change the terms anytime, and you have no recourse but to accept what you’re given.  I think we can do better. Making that happen is now central…

Network of Scottish X accounts go dark amid Iran blackout

Network of Scottish X accounts go dark amid Iran blackout

✨ Explore this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 💡 **What You’ll Learn**: Industry publication UK Defence Journal, which has tracked the accounts for months, said that multiple X accounts claiming to be supporters of Scottish independence have ceased activity.  One such account, known as ‘Fiona’, has not posted since Thursday. The accounts went silent after the internet was cut amid protests in Iran. (Image: PA) The account, which describes itself as “a proud Scottish lass” and “passionate about Scotland's independence & our right to self-determination”, is based in Europe (according to X’s location data).  However, this is…

UK Expands Online Safety Act to Mandate Preemptive Scanning of Digital Communications

UK Expands Online Safety Act to Mandate Preemptive Scanning of Digital Communications

🔥 Check out this must-read post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: A major expansion of the UK’s Online Safety Act (OSA) has taken effect, legally obliging digital platforms to deploy surveillance-style systems that scan, detect, and block user content before it can be seen. The government’s new Online Safety Act 2023 (Priority Offenses) (Amendment) Regulations 2025, which came into force on January 8, 2026, designates “cyberflashing” and “encouraging or assisting serious self-harm” as priority offenses, categories that trigger the strictest compliance duties under the OSA. This marks a decisive move toward preemptive censorship. Services that…

the best TV remote for kids

💥 Discover this insightful post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: Posted on mandag, januar 12, 2026 in Hal9k, Planet Ubuntu-DK, Planets Modern TVs are very poorly suited for kids. They require using complicated remotes or mobile phones, and navigating apps that continually try to lure you into watching something else than you intended to. The usual scenario ends up with the kid feeling disempowered and asking an adult to put something on. That something ends up on auto-play because then the adult is free to do other things and the kid ends up stranded powerless…

Date is out, Temporal is in

💥 Explore this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: Time makes fools of us all, and JavaScript is no slouch in that department either. Honestly, I’ve never minded the latter much — in fact, if you’ve taken JavaScript for Everyone or tuned into the newsletter, you already know that I largely enjoy JavaScript’s little quirks, believe it or not. I like when you can see the seams; I like how, for as formal and iron-clad as the ES-262 specification might seem, you can still see all the good and bad decisions made by the…

Text-based web browsers – CSSence.com

🔥 Explore this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 💡 **What You’ll Learn**: Before I start, let me get two things out of the way: In this article I’m not going to include the admittedly cool browsh, because it only works by utilizing Firefox under the hood. When I say text-based, I’m talking about old-school browsers like ELinks, Lynx or w3m. These are also the three browsers I’ve used to test everything described below. The whole article ended up being a rant about how text-based browsers deal with features that got added to HTML. Or more like, how…

Provenance Is the New Version Control

Provenance Is the New Version Control

💥 Discover this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: When code can be thrown away and recreated, the unit of change is no longer lines of code. It’s reasons. Version control has to follow.Regenerable systems quietly invalidate an assumption that has underpinned software engineering for decades: that the text of the code is the best record of how and why a system came to be. Once an AI can reliably regenerate an implementation from specification, the code itself becomes an artifact of synthesis, not the locus of intent.By regenerable, I mean: if you delete…
