It took me some time to have my RSS feed setup the way I want it, but it is such a fresh breath of air. A thing I noticed is that my opinion about a certain subject gets influenced a lot by the top comments, whether here or on Reddit. I som

Reddit got too mainstream for its own good. The company desperately wants to become the new social media (think Facebook or Twitter), but many users are standing in the way, making the change from a discussion website to a social media webs

Due to the quarantine and the current crisis, VC is wired to Video Conference or Voice Chat in my brain. The title gives no clue whatsoever. How does X works can have any word in place of X and it would still make sense.

I think this is exactly the difference between a programmer and a software engineer. A (successful) software engineer should understand how memory works, what a server is, how to plan a project and predict the obstacles, and a lot of othe

I hate it when blogs do this. Does it hurt to put the full word in the title (or at least first paragraph) instead of the initials? It took me a relatively long time to understand what the article is about when I was reading it. I don'

Did you just link a DuckDuckGo search query and call it "Further Reading"? We know how to search, thank you very much. If you want to help us, you can link a specific book/article, and call that further reading.

If you think a door would stop 2 kids aged 2-5, I don't think you have lived in the same house with kids aged 2-5.

I'm 100% sure that at least 3 developers are working full-time on Godot now. I think a fourth one was recently hired as well.

First of all, thank you very much for translating the app to Arabic. There is a huge lack of good apps in Arabic. But I went to your website, timecop.app, and the Arabic is disastrous. Even the name of the app is translated wrong. I didn&#x

This isn't really an "ethical" practice, more like how to hide that you are scraping data practice. If you have to hide the fact that you are scraping their data, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

Searching for this on Google give back 5 results, with only 1 that is semi-relevant[1], which is their FAQ page. They don't have a question specifically about security, but they talk briefly about it while answering other questions.

Mine is a friend's birthday. Not a lover/ex, not even that close of a friend. So people that know me would never guess it, and for a stranger, it is just random number. It also have the advantage of not having to save it in a pass

Godot game engine, definitely. Sure, it still have a long way to go, but it is getting quality updates regularly that the hype for the updates is mind blowing. I can definitely see it being a serious rival to Unity in a few years, at least

I'm not much of a bookmarks guy, but I used to have the same problem 4 years ago when I used Facebook. I would find an interesting video or article, save it (very similar to bookmarking it but within Facebook), and then forget about it

I think I have to disagree. Google is definitely using Chrome for more than just a security measure. Google is getting aggressive in competing with Firefox, what they are doing is either borderline or literally illegal, like making their se

I am not the original commenter, but to be honest, you are casually dismissing very valuable points. You claim that Whatsapp has E2EE, and that eleminates the need to trust them. Well let me ask you something: How do you know they have E2EE
