I agree. Unfortunately I think that’s practically impossible given battery constraints.

Contactless cards aren’t really any faster than Apple Pay secured by your fingerprint, and in fact are the same speed if you prepare your iPhone - supposing your phone is at least as accessible as your contactless card. I’ve never used the

It’s a step in the right direction. Also is TLS1.3. not supposed to encrypt SNI?

I wouldn't say "easy"! I wrote up an article on running a single application in a vpn[1]. It was quite difficult to be honest having never used network namespaces before. Thankfully, someone else wrote a very useful guide whi

[git-worktree]( https://git-scm.com/docs/git-worktree ) allows you to have "copies" of the repo cheaply. This can be useful when switching branches would have a high overhead, for example you need to reconfigur

Is this some kind of a joke? Global warming, full stop. Plants are not starved, they were ubiquitous until we chopped “most” of them down.

Multi-account containers are great. The only issue I’ve encountered is opening links outside of your container (e.g. a link to a website that you are logged in outside the container will mean you are logged out). Just need to train my muscl

That's a good point on how you phrase what they are doing. You want to avoid implying that you or the person you are talking to is being targeted (because they're not really and it makes you look like a conspiracy theorist).

Thanks for your response. I spoke slightly evocatively because this has caused issues for me and hence I didn’t like to see it advertised as “public”. The biggest issue is that I cannot share my work with others (easily) if I use a dataset

How do we know they haven’t shared WhatsApp contact data with their main FB database? I was operating under the assumption based on some news articles that they long broke whatever promises they made.

I think that’s a good way to create an incentive to write short TOSs. They shouldn’t be legally enforceable unless people are actually reading them. Nothing good can come out of that.

Is there a difference between perception of challenge and a challenge? Either way, I do think that some video games are challenging. On the other hand, some games, particularly freemium mobile games really do just hijack your brain.

I don’t think the reward from heroin is in any way related to the struggle of aquiring it, whereas the reward from the other examples largely comes from overcoming the struggle.

Doing a search on Bandcamp for songs that I like.. I was able to find none of them. I'd argue if they only solved the problem, then they solved the subset of the problem which excludes the songs that I would be after.

Yes, absolutely. However, regardless of the reasons, it when I run into an issue I feel annoyed and it makes me want to not bother.

I absolutely agree with one caveat. I think it’s important to be able to read an historical article even though you are no longer paying the subscription. I think there’s subtleties to the subscription model though. Will it really cover all

Thanks for the document. I think it still says that the employer should notify the employee beforehand of any potential monitoring of communications, which is different from assuming that every byte is being monitored.

There are already monitors that can go as high as 144hz (and some are higher) and I've been eyeing some for a quite a while. Hearing about 16ms being the target just makes me disappointed. (It may be the right target for 99.9% of their
