Most people’s passwords are 10-ish character not-totally-random strings, so that would actually be an improvement. Now bump it to four words like the xkcd comic actually says and you’ve got a stew goin’.

I feel like there must be a nonzero number of people who went to Clubhouse.io looking for the social media app, then thought “wrong site! But hmm, my team could use a better project management tool…” Perhaps a smart idea would be to ride th

It’s not pointless if it works! Seriously though, those of us who don’t like DRM need to switch messaging from “It’s bad AND it’s pointless/useless!” to “It’s bad!” The “it’s pointless” part has clearly been interpreted as a challenge,

I love looking at the Done column of my Trello board and then (yes I’m that terrible person) showing it off to people.

In my experience, the most common failure case is that businesses will try to cut costs by either combining the roles, or stretching a PO or scrummaster across multiple teams. I’ve met people who I imagine could be good POs in a different s

Scrum master and Product Owner are both roles where, if I’d never seen someone do them at a high level of competency, I’d question whether they were necessary at all. Scrum master: One time I was having an argument with a couple engineers b

This wouldn’t work. Have you never read a vampire story? The ads will trick us into inviting them into our homes.

Given the kind of cocky tone elsewhere in that comment, I read it as “the biggest problem with Bubble is that if you’re an engineering manager who likes maintaining a fiefdom of 30 engineers, you won’t get to do that anymore”. No-code folks

You and I both know that would be way too cool to happen in real life.

I have never heard of an employer detaching a noncompete from the terms of employment, much less offering anything like $100k as a carrot. If some employers do this, then cool, but I don’t find a lot of merit in arguing about whether it’s O

I’d note that there are many different kinds of hackathons, which vary wildly in terms of length, ambition and seriousness, so everyone’s answer is going to be different. At my previous employer, we did 2 hackathons a year. They were struct

We… already have? Drunk driving is grounds for license suspension, heavy fines and jail time in (I’m pretty sure) every US state. We may still have drunk drivers, but it seems odd to suggest that we aren’t doing anything about it. Cops, jud

The problem is that then the CCP won’t respond with “Oh no! They circumvented our invasive measures!” They’ll say “Hmm, they circumvented our invasive measures, I guess we’ll need even more invasive measures that are harder to circumvent.”

Right, but Copilot is not creating a piece of critical media about the code it is ingesting (IANAL, but my understanding is that this gets interpreted pretty strictly). I don’t think the normal Fair Use classes apply here. Even if the code

Plenty of people probably copy-paste GPL code with the comments and stick MIT on it. This kind of thing violates the GPL, but I’m pretty sure (IANAL) that such code is “fruit of the poison tree”, and if you then copy it, you too can be held

For a long time I was happily sitting in the “I have no use for cryptocurrency” zone, occasionally checking in to see if things changed or reading a blog post here and there to see if there was something I was missing. But as the energy usa

AppClips and AR actually fit together really well. If a museum, theatre or other space has an AR app, it’ll be a lot smoother to get people to use it if they just have to tap their phone on a thing and then hit “OK”. Then when they leave th

Given the number of actual Trump staff CNN has hired and put on air, I don't think one can credibly argue that they are on the opposite end of the spectrum. As someone who generally politically identifies as "left", I can ass

Disagree on the supply-side angle: If we cut our dependence on oil for power and transport but the supply stays high, it’ll lead to a drop in prices. People will be incentivized to find new profitable uses for this cheap oil, which will the

The day they stop selling Intel Macs, there will be an uproar from people who claimed that X months was not enough time to refresh their workplace's MacBooks--which need to be Intel because in spite of Rosetta 2 and the speed at which

Elon Musk isn’t trading on his public stage persona? That aside, I guess I just don’t have much sympathy. If certain “rules” are gonna apply to billionaires and not normal people, that seems fine by me. It might seem “biased” or “unfair” to

Sure thing. Apple told developers that webapps were the solution. They didn’t give any public indication that this would change. Now, one could argue that this was just cover while they got the native SDK ready, but that Bertrand Serlet ema

I see this question asked a lot on HN, and certainly with good reason: Every founder should be constantly asking themselves this question. However, I think it’s important to also play Devil’s Advocate and note that some products succeed not

They did intend that. This email is Bertrand relenting and saying “Fine, let’s enable apps that aren’t web apps.” Here’s what they told developers when the iPhone was released (months before that email): https://youtu.be/vK

I do agree with both of these, but then the question becomes “so then what DO we do?” The options would seem to be: - Openly state what the goals and metrics are, know that they’ll be gamed, shrug and just keep going. - Don’t tell anyone yo

I blame Intel. For years i9 wasn’t just a “beefed up i7”, it was a high end line of CPUs with 10+ cores costing $1000+, meant for professional workstations that didn’t need Xeon’s ECC RAM support. Then suddenly i9 started to also mean “a be

“Neural Network Lip Sync For Translations” feels like a more honest tagline than “Neural Network Enabled Filmmaking”. I get that you’re probably aiming for filmmakers, and they can definitely make good use of this tech, but I’ve gotta imagi
