Just gave it a whirl and it works pretty good. It doesn't seem like you can force hashcards to let you re-review your deck at anytime though as its on a scheduler. (Imagine this is by design of SRS, but a bit annoying can't override with a flag).

I think uploading a textbook to NotebookLM and getting it to build out a deck for each chapter will be a great study method.


I behave this way too. But I also fear it leads to a degree of split personality disorder... and feeling a bit like a fraud.


It also amazes me how incredibly unbrowseable tomshardware is now with all the ads and pop-ups.


It also amazes me that people are using the internet w/o an adblocker in the year 2025


I haven’t bothered working out how to install one on mobile. I just don’t visit websites with shitty ads.


Just use the Brave browser. No plugins necessary.


It has poor compatibility on the iOS version that I've got installed, sadly.


Firefox on mobile supports uBlock Origin


On iOS, every browser is required by Apple to use WebKit. I just tried it again myself and FireFox on iPhone has no ublock Origin add on possibility.

Firefox Focus does work as an alternative.

Apple created a special system-level API for Safari Content Blockers. Apps like Firefox Focus, AdGuard, 1Blocker, Wipr can register filtering rules with Safari using this API. That’s why Focus can block ads/trackers inside Safari if you enable it under Safari


> On iOS, every browser is required by Apple to use WebKit

Didn’t this change recently?


In EU only, and to my knowledge no mainstream browser vendor has shipped a real browser with their own engine yet. Too much work, and they need to maintain two different versions (EU and non-EU). The whole situation is a mess.


Only for EU.


use orion browser? or ubo lite on safari


Safari on iOS support uBlock origin too


I think you mean HN readers.


i was also in shock, then someone reminded me there are iphone users.

the horror.

paying thousands of dollars just to be forbidden to block ads.


?

There are countless free and paid options on iOS too

Firefox Focus, Brave

AdGuard Pro, $9.99 once and you can use any blocklist you want (you can just copypaste from uBlock Origin if you wish) and it works system-wide with Safari

etc


Lockdown app for ios - if you arent using your single active vpn connection on iOS lockdown app runs as a local vpn and even app telemetry, ads everything is blocked. Many options on ios, sir.


what? there are many fantastic ad blockers on ios. Weird thing to crow about.


With UblockOrigin blocking the ads, there were no ads and pop-ups.


This looks amazing. Based on the animated gif, I cant believe how better IRC looks with the text properly indented and separated from the username. Way less visual load!


Canada's government can't even release its annual budget. Nuclear reactors on the moon is just pure click bait and I wouldn't expect anything less from CBC.


Thanks for this. Can you suggest any books that go into these topics with examples?


People can say what they want about AI, but I find an LLM is far better at summarizing information. It was obvious a human wrote this article and it was way too verbose.


You're not thinking like a marketing executive. The people who make $400 a week are not the target audience for this product. It's that simple. Not everything is made for Walmart shoppers.


Why is Qobuz always missing from these sites? It has superior audio quality beyond all other options.


And it pays artists a fair share per stream, a lot more than other major streaming platforms.


Well played!
