This is more malicious than just not focusing on offboarding. The easiest implementation would be to just delete the user account and abandon the data, slightly more effort would be to delete the data. Making it public with the legal disc

What has become of HN. Why are so many people defending this practice because "You agreed to this when you signed up." Are so many unscrupulous people now members of HN? Even if this practice is legal, which is questionable, it&#

I guess, personally it just feels like there is an uptick in security "researchers" making mountains out of molehills, or more common mountains out of literally nothing, such as this "vulerability." This is akin to sayin

Its also just easy to launch on steam, then they handle distribution, updates, payment processing. Steam brings value to the table that if you're okay giving up a significant cut can make your life easy.

Honestly I get the opposite of hope from people on this site. There is a large vocal population there that seems to _want_ Apple to continue to lock down and take control of their devices, all in the name of "security." Read any

On the other hand, hiring gets discussed endlessly on HN and there doesn't seem to be a compelling reason presented for the status quo. At some point you have to accept that the fence maybe doesn't serve a purpose, or its purpose

Is it? More mass means more kinetic energy. If the core of the satellite is extremely heavy, it only has to lose a tiny percentage of velocity to send a lightweight piece off at 90 degrees at extremely high velocities. Taken to the extrem

Yeah maybe not the best idea, XPath has a pretty different use case than CSS. But it does seem a shame that more complex "nth-child" selectors do not just use something more flexible/programmable like xpath. As it stands CSS
