How do you manage virtual desktops on windows? I used to but found it annoying to maintain which windows go where, when restarting would always reset the settings

Exactly. Just because information is publicly available, doesn't mean it's easy to find or access. Doxxing makes it easy to access and reference, and bridges the gap between a pseudonyms and real identity

I'd see it as a single point of failure, but not necessarily a single factor. If the password is compromised due to a problem on the application side, they still can't get in to your account without the TOTP code. Of course the th

Feels like something about the bystander effect, about feeling attacked or threatened while everyone around you is indifferent. And how in such a situation, you want more than just defence or neutralizing the threat, but some sorta vengeanc

Doesn't your quoted passage say the opposite? Reading white text on a black screen may inhibit myopia, and black text on white background does the opposite?

I find some people don't draw strong distinctions between friends and acquaintances; they treat acquaintances like friends. After going through a collaborative purely creative journey, I could almost see that boundary being broken down

Never before has the HN hive mind bubble been so clear to me as in this comment thread, and I find it kinda fascinating. What I find really interesting, though, are parallels to complaints I've heard from artsy friends about Lensa (whi

It depends on those initial emails and what was agreed upon. Assuming no information was left out and he truly said "The contract was for a comprehensive buyout, signing away all my rights forever, which was exactly the thing I’d told

It was reasonably public knowledge at the time, iirc. The dev team was not very big at launch. That said, I'm kinda curious about what roles the other ~25 staff had in such a small team. HR and legal and such I guess?

Never before has the HN bubble been so clear to me before reading the comments of this post. He outright says it in the article, about how it wasn't about the money. If it was, there are more effective ways of going about getting that

To me the post is about how he wrote a story for a friend, that friend didn't treat him like a friend, and how he was hurt by that. It sounds like the post was about letting him vent his pain and frustration and reach some level of emo

Did he not honor the informal agreement? To me the agreement sounds like they bought the right to use the story as the ending to the game. They didn't agree on signing over the rights to the story, and he said if he knew that would hav

They also agreed to give him and his other work "exposure to the Minecraft community", which didn't end up happening and was explicitly reneged on.

I mean in this thread it sounds like one person literally asked "what is the solution to the trolley problem" and someone else described a specific trolley problem; no surprise those different prompts would give different answers

The reason is to draw people in with a comparison to something they already know. "bacon made of seaweed" sounds more interesting and will draw more people in than "seacrunch", which has its own identity and brand it wou

I meant it more like ROTC was an example of one such program, of which I'm sure there are many whether directly like that or indirectly through companies. Of course, using companies as a medium for propagating welfare has its own probl

I think this is a fascinating perspective, or at least one I haven't heard before. I can't say I have a lot of experience with the military though. Although now that I think about it, that's what ROTC is right? They pay for y
