That is the most terrifying thing to me. The US government can do anything with their people. It's their government after all and they are responsible for running it. But US government doing wholesale surveillance on everyone else? Fuc

Did you even read the NYT article? They said requests can be very broad, like logs for certain search terms and people staying in the company building for weeks with all the data being gathered in government laptops. That is pretty much rea

It's easy, we encode encrypted audio data in binary, print out the 0s and 1s on an eco friendly paper and send the bundle off in mail. It is pretty secure since they will be the only one with private key.</s>

> when FISA is used on Americans, it's a process that involves a court-approved warrant. What? So not being a US citizen makes us second class citizens in game of online privacy? That's ridiculous. And no, these requests were n

How would twitter have it's user's SSN?

Exactly why is no company addressing the fact that the government already accepted the program's existence and the fact that they snoop emails/communications. How can the program exist and take data and these companies not giving

Twitter seems unlikely because most of the data produced by twitter is public anyways. Only private communication is DM.

What the fuck is the "we are not reading emails of any US citizen" bullshit. I am not a US citizen, so you are reading my emails? That is even more fucked up. For one second forget about US citizens and think about all the other

That's not the point. The point is if we have to resort to such measures, we have already lost.

I have been using feedly, but it keeps asking me for logging in to google after every session. I wonder what will happen once reader goes down. That and it looks/feels bloated.

That looks cool. But in most of my projects, I use a "frame" structure. After submitting something, the frame changes to either left or right, completely moving the submit button out of sight. So while this is very cool, it doesn't work for

There is no way for you to read the one time passwords. You can only disable them from dashboard or make new ones. The parent comment was about keyloggers, and the don't-require-two-factor-auth checkbox is for browser cookie session only. S

Isn't that the usually advice from everyone on HN or in YC? I thought we were pretty well decided on the hipster terms like rockstar, ninja or brogramming.

I am actually looking for a job, But I am in chandigarh and still in college. Location makes all the difference I guess.

Two factor authentication can easily solve that problem. I used to feel uneasy about logging in on other systems, but now I don't mind using incognito and google authenticator.

Damn. I live in India and would more than happily drop out of college for 80k/year. More like a dream to start with.

That list makes me uncomfortable. I can't imagine doing all of it unless I was some criminal. But to each his own I guess because I don't really care what government or add company person is looking at me browsing reddit or programing forum

I am not the parent. I wrote the original comment, and my point was that I use hg, and github does not support hg.

How do you classify Bitbucket as poor man's github? It has almost all the same features, supports git and mercurial and unlimited private repos.

It's not always because I don't want to pay. In my case for example, I don't have a job, credit card, bank account or any other source of income. I simply can't play for a monthly subscription for version control. how do I explain it to m

It's not google.com. Chrome has speech recognition service that goes to google's servers. And that service is being hit hard, not google.com.

> It wasn't immediately clear whether Tumblr's board had also approved the deal. So it's still essentially a rumor. Nothing official has been done. Microsoft may have made an offer but it means nothing until Tumblr accepts it.
