“CONCLUSIONS
A 3-year structured exercise program initiated soon after adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer resulted in significantly longer disease-free survival and findings consistent with longer overall survival.”
I've long wondered whether working within AR glasses improves one's ability to focus. My hypothesis is that I have fewer shiny objects in my periphery to create distractions. Can anyone who has experience with AR glasses comment?
If Masimo sounds vaguely familiar to folks, it’s because they sued over the Apple Watch blood oxygen sensor, ultimately resulting in it being disabled in the product.
I think you’re alluding to this in your last statement, but standard treatment for Lyme can absolutely wreck your natural gut microbiome. This could explain some of the lingering chronic effects post-treatment. Did you try supplementing with fermented foods or probiotics after completing dox?
Curious as I’m of the same mind - what’s your local AI setup? I’m looking to implement a local system that would ideally accommodate voice chat. I know the answer depends on my use case - mostly searching and analysis of personal documents - but would love to hear how you’ve implemented.
If you are just starting up, you can try out 'open-webui' as inspiration.
After that you can just use llama.cpp to build out your own things.
Hardware side, I just have a beefy server that acts as a router (mellanox card to provider fiber optic and local fiber network), firewall, wifi access point, zigbee coordinator, host to various services, camera video feed ingestion and processing, and so on...
I noticed the URL was updated for this post. Previously it linked to asahilinux.org which showed an anti-HN manifesto from the HN referral. Curious as I haven’t seen this before. Seems it has been covered by previous commenters: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36227103
See[1] the Referrer-Policy header, <meta name="referrer">, <a referrerpolicy> and <a rel="noreferrer">.
But generally, webmasters have found it useful to know who caused their server to fall over^W^W^W^W^W^W is linking to their pages. This was even used as a predecessor to pingbacks once upon a time, but turned out to be too spammable (yes, even more so than pingbacks).
After the HN operators started adding rel=noreferrer to links to the Asahi Linux website, Marcan responded[2] by excluding anyone who has the HN submit form in their browser history, which feels like a legitimate attack on the browser’s security model—I don’t know how it’d be possible to do that. (Cross-origin isolation is supposed to prevent cross-site tracking of this exact kind, and concerns about such privacy violations are why SRI has not been turned into a caching mechanism along the lines of Want-Content-Digest, and so on and so forth.) ETA: This is no longer in place, it seems.
Visited links have always looked different from unvisited ones, and the moment you could customize how links looked via CSS, browsers also had to implement styling for visited links specifically.
Modern browsers put a lot of care into making the changes to those styles observable to the user, but not to Javascript.
This is an extremely hard problem, and browsers have had a lot of security issues related to this behavior. Nowadays, you can only apply a very limited subset of CSS properties to those styles, to avoid side-channel timing attacks and such.
This means you can display a banner to anybody who has a certain URL in their browser history, but you can't observe whether that banner actually shows up with JS or transmit that information to your server.

How do they stop you from using Canvas to see the output and send it back?
Canvas can't "see the output", it only sees what is drawn in it (which is not a set of HTML tags, it's JS commands).
The screen recording/screen sharing API can be used for this but security is the reason you have to give explicit permission to the site before it can do this.
IIRC, Firefox had a bug where this exact scenario was possible, I think you needed to embed the link in html embedded inside an SVG, which was displayed in the canvas, and then access the bitmap. You could e.g. make the link black if visited and white otherwise, and then the number of white versus black pixels in the bitmap would tell you whether the link was visited or not.
There was also that asteroids game / captcha where links were white/black squares and your goal was to click all the black ones. Of course, clicking a square revealed that you knew the square was black, which meant the URL under it was in your history.
If you go back far enough there weren't even protections against this sort of thing at all! E.g. you could just say a visited link style was 1px taller then measure that. The protections had to be added in after the fact (often with special case logic for what's allowed to be styled or read on :visited) once security became a major concern!
Referer does have legitimate uses. For example, back in the day people would use it to detect if someone embedded an image from their site on another site. SomethingAwful famously used to respond to any such requests with goatse, and forums I was on had very strict "don't link to SA images" rules as a result.
I think that using referer to try to deliver manifestos to users of another site is kinda childish, but so it goes. Every tool can be put to good or bad uses.
The Referrer-Policy header lets a server tell the browser how much referrer information to pass on when following links, all the way down to nothing at all if desired. Chrome does respect that, and they also followed other browsers in changing the default to "strict-origin-when-cross-origin" a few years ago which truncates the referrer path when leaving to a different domain, so they only see the domain the visitor came from rather than the specific page like they used to. Can't really fault Google in this case.
There's a handy addon for Firefox called Privacy Settings that can take care of that. Explicitly adds and option to have the referers be not sent, and a quick way of re-enabling it, in case it breaks a website. Because of course that happens too.
I don’t have time to find a source that supports this, but I understand that these dates also refer to the durability of the “food safe” container/packaging. Ever drink water from an unopened plastic bottle that has been stored for awhile? That taste is not from the water decaying or otherwise breaking down.
"best by" and "do not eat after" are not the same thing. Best by just means optimal freshness. Maybe you're thinking of "use by". "Sell by" is the thing giving people issues, as the food is still good but it's time for the -store- to rotate it out of inventory because it's not going to be as fresh after that date, and that leads to complainy customers.
it doesn't though since we all know what they meant. We all know the store doesn't use "best buy" except on coupons or sales circulars or it's a store named Best Buy.
Those cheap plastic water bottles should be banned. They’re one of the greatest sources of micro plastics in our bodies. (Not to mention unstudied nano plastics)
I don’t personally normally buy bottled water but the alternative is probably to go back to glass which means higher consumer prices, increased fossil fuel consumption for transportation, etc.
Why not aluminum cans? There's still some plastic in there, but you can mostly recycle them, they must be fairly cheap, and they're quite light. As an added benefit they stack higher in transit with less extra packaging, at least if they're shipped like beer.
I literally just saw those for the first time. As I understand it they’re still plastic lined and the energy efficiency depends on how much recycling takes place. It depends if eliminating plastics is what you really care about or not.
Even if it's true that those bottles shed plastic and you can taste that plastic, that's not a source for the claim that the bottles are one of the foremost sources of the microplastic in our bodies.
Presumably you're not chewing on or eating from synthetic textiles. Meanwhile an enormous amount of food is shipped in, and even cooked in, plastic directly.
Of course you're right in the sense that when it comes to our general environment textiles produce far more environmental microplastics than most other sources. Particularly in our water systems.
I think synthetic fabrics shed very small particles into the air every time they are disturbed, eventually wearing out entirely. We breath a lot of that in. Clothes, furniture, sometimes even bed sheets; these all shed fibers into our living spaces.
