WHO currently represents the scientific consensus. No, they don't tell you what to do, it is your government that does that, or in this case a private entity. But anybody with a brain would go for the scientific consensus. (Even though

Why would they? AFAIK they don't support IMAP/SMTP either, not without that client-side "bridge" anyway.

I never understood why Dvorak is a thing. I and others like me can touch type with Qwerty just fine. I can comfortably do 70-90 wpm, which is above my speed of thought. I don't suffer from RSI either and I've been touch typing for

The problem is that special integration is required. Personally I don't like VS Code, I too use IntelliJ IDEA, which will probably end up having support, but it didn't last time I tried. On my Macbook I also use Emacs and GUI vers

Gmail does not have a mix of labels and folders. It's all labels in Gmail.

Would be good to do what Gmail does over IMAP because many email clients already know how to handle it. A feature that only works in the web UI isn't useful for me and while I'm excited about JMAP, it doesn't have support in

I've been a Fastmail user for my personal email for several years now, however I still miss labels. Therefore I love seeing this. It is unclear to me how this works with IMAP clients. Are these labels still exposed as folders over IMAP

Labels will probably remain optional, since folders are better supported by IMAP clients and they've been in the standard forever. The only service that does not support folders properly is Gmail and the actual problem with Gmail is th

I would argue that's OK. The problem with third-party cookies is that information gets shared across websites and thus your behavior can be tracked across websites. If you set a CNAME to point to a third-party, the cookies become in fa

No, that's not a clarification. What the TFA is saying is that the decryption key is generated by their servers and even passed through China, even if none of the people in the conversation are in China. That's NOT end-to-end encr
