With all messaging apps that gets introduced these days, how come the only one that we all actually uses is email? Because it's decentralized! It used to be that we designed protocols for the internet, and now we instead build services

I think we need to start recognizing that this is just the sign of low intelligence. You can not argue with people who are judgmental. It's just like arguing with a drunk. Whatever you say is just waste of time and energy and by even g

I think theres an argument we are missing when only talking about the technical aspects of the Apple Watch. To be honest, I think it's to expensive for regular people. Even if it could bake you croissants and turn you a soup bowl, most

You really start to wonder what pot they are smoking over there at Mozilla. Standard things you would expect from a browser, like a way to easily disabling javascript are apparently left to third-party extensions, because oh you don't

I think we are focusing in the wrong thing when encryption is all about privacy discussions. If we want to build distributed systems, for example for money transfers, we will need "unbreakable" encryption for signing.

Maybe we should all learn something from this and also the thing about RadioShack selling of all their customer data. What will Google do when it gets shaky?

I'm kind of allergic to doing things just because the sake of it, even with design. Start with what you have, which is pure text. Then you look at the text and you ask your self, how do I make this more readable? Design is about functi

The ad blocking problem is extremely easy to solve. Start hosting the ads on the main domain. Then you cannot block ads without risking to also block other images and scripts essential to the website. But guess what! If they did that they w

Programming should be like this. When you're in your twenties thinking you know everything you should have have an old master slapping you on the writs telling you that even if you think you are - you actually are not ready building re

To me the Apple Watch is over engineered. Good engineering is like ergonomics for your mind. When you find the most beautiful solution to a problem, you know it in your guts. But with the Apple Watch, looking at it I don't know what pr

The reason I wear a watch is because it constantly sits on my arm reminding me about what great engineering is. And that is everything the Apple Watch is not.

I think it's a childish and nonacademic worldview if you think the only value in another post is if you agree or not.

To make it simple I'd say markup is about structure where code has inherent meaning. For example: <p>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.</p> Here the markup does not change the fact that the dog is lazy. That

I think it does matter because code makes it sound complex, wheres markup explains what it actually is. I don't think everybody in this world should know how to program ("code") but I do think every person in this world shoul

I think you missed the point I tried to make. DNS is 15 years older then HTTP so of course it's not meant to be used that way. Domain names where put in different configuration files once, and then your mail client, IRC client, NTP cli

Domain names are meant for naming hosts on a network, not for naming websites which seems to have been forgotten.

I think we need to start thinking of programming as a true craft. Like watch making. Not something you learn within 2 years just to become a productive app-maker to mass produce more useless apps. But something you grow into by gaining a fu

I used to cite this saying all the time. Now I'm more keen to think that this saying can be twisted to support just about any argument.

This industry has become too anxious. It's like the new standard is when ever someone makes an post like "10 books you should read" and the first comment here on HN is "Why the hell are you telling me what to read?"

Why would you have to choose between privacy and convenience? You can have both. The idea that they contradict each other is just spin from companies like Facebook. If I were to follow you with a bullhorn shouting messages at you, it probab

Sometimes I joke about people and someone corrects me telling me what a douche I am. But lately I've started thinking that maybe It's easy for me to say these things because just because I say someone for example looks a certain w

Some here seems to think that introverts can't be empathic which ironically seems like a very hostile attitude towards fellow people.

There are two things I really miss about Opera. Generic Content-blocking - that is not only blocking ads but any URL-pattern of interest. And also the per-site settings. For example a lot of sites use extensive javascript only for tracking,

I think tablets would be great for specific tasks. Police could make reports in the field, picking and checking off orders in a warehouse or a waiter could take orders on it. But as it is now, both Apples and Googles ecosystem are so tightl
