The interview was pretty interesting. Sacca's description of how they make it hard to follow what's going on, even though they know first, sums up why I don't use Twitter. Twitter always feels like I'm walking into the

Yeah, everything asks for permissions now. To me, it's worth it for location history and being able to see real time traffic and stuff like in the article. I'll just turn it off when I go to visit my secret family in Canada.

I sometimes wonder if I should be more concerned with privacy and my data than I am. I don't engage in risky behaviors, and use mailinator as much as possible. But I also have nothing to hide, and rarely share anything critical apart f

I'm glad someone else brought this up on here, and you guys have some sources to back up your viewpoints. My understanding, until now, is that China has been full-blasting the environment as hard as it can even in the face of smog that

Honestly, I feel like if you start trying to game the system with some shady practices, you should be ready for eventualities like this. That's almost as careless as putting your real info up on an .onion site, and almost exactly like

I graduated in Ohio in 99, and my junior year we had a typing class, on actual typewriters. That was the extent of my official preparation for the digital age. Luckily I was scripting in mIRC at the same time, and learning home-row isn'

I like this idea. Official container support would be a game changer, especially for those unnerved by going off the beaten path.

This is my go to dev environment right now, on Pixel 2. I rarely have to restart the machine, and I backup the linux chroot to the gigantic drive space they give you for free. So if anything ever did happen, I could reload like nothing. Al

I was super excited to see this post, until I realized I've been doing what it suggests for 6 months now. I use my Pixel as my primary development machine, but it's only because of Linux. I've learned a lot though, and enjoy

All indications are that this is the safest time in history to be alive. The headlines give us all a sense of terror because it useful to some narratives, but any articles citing studies and statistics show otherwise. We're just much m

Do you really? Then you call the police. The fact that these topics can't be discussed without escalation to violence (or people assuming it will lead to violence) should be troubling to everyone. In the free market of ideas, you win o

I do believe it played a part in this election. Watching shows like Rubin Report opened my eyes to how fractured the left has become. It also gives me hope that there's a lot of people out there who still want to have a dialogue.

I think it sets a bad precedent, and fosters unrealistic expectations for when they leave. Most universities have counselors and psychologists you can talk to, for free, if your struggling with something. Bubbles and kittens don't help

It's sad that this is old news now. But I'm sure the people who started these universities are still rolling in their graves. These free-thinkers celebrated civil discourse, and built universities to foster the marketplace of idea

I also use Atom, and just can't seem to garner an affinity for VS Code. I came from a .NET background, so I've struggled with Visual Studio and Nuget for years, and it left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm also probably just used

That is a good point, especially when you're dealing with people who are concerned with privacy. Sometimes they can be... uhm.. extremely zealous.. about their privacy. They probably feel they need to default to giving them complete au

I didn't feel like the statement carried an implicit claim that no one has schizophrenia, or other cut-and-dry physical problems. Maybe I just read it that way, but I couldn't disagree more if that's what they meant. I had a

Oh I missed that, thanks for the heads up though. I'm not sure why, but I really thought it would be more of game with some actual insight instead of "isn't Trump a bully".

What else is there besides your data, and what you have invested in media or applications. I imagine it's gotten better than it used to be. But does iPhone even have a built-in file explorer yet, or do you still have to download one to

Kudos to another chromebook dev! Are you running Ubuntu in a Crouton, or another setup? I'm doing that and I run Atom without any complaints. It might just be the way I'm using it however.
