It is really crazy how much sand is needed for modern development. It is a key component in a ton of different things.

Not saying it isn't a dumpster fire, but many high profile websites run on WordPress. It is an excellent CMS. Anything is vulnerable in some sort of way.

Warning: Autoplaying video ad. No audio, so that is a plus.

I want less data collecting in my life, not more. Things like this make me fear a feature where every move we make and thing we speak are analyzed and scrutinized to better manipulate us via advertising. 1984 was meant to be a warning, not

Googles growing influence in the world is darn right scary. They are a private company so they can do what ever they want (i.e. they could delist & censor anything the author writes) and claim free speech. If they wanted to they could w

There really needs to be an alternative open source mobile OS. I had really hoped that would be Ubuntu touch, but now that development is moved over to ubports I am not sure wide spread support is going to happen.

I really wish Ubuntu touch was more complete. I would switch in a heart beat.

So we (end users) are just supposed to take their word for it?

It makes prefect sense. Why help your competitor by being a customer?

It would be really neat to see one of these mega city designs built in my lifetime.

The more data we give FaceBook, Google, Amazon the more powerful they become. There is a good chance we don't even realize we are giving them data due to agreements in place between companies. I can totally seeing Facebook buying genet

Both Outlook and Gmail are closed source, third party email clients. You might be able to peak at the front end, but you have no idea what's going on behind the scenes. Sure, from a security stand point you are most likely fine for mos

That is pretty cool! Although hijacking the back button is a bit annoying.

As it should be. The world is quickly approaching a very Orwellian feature unless we take steps to stop it. Right to privacy should be right up there with the right to free speech.

Good on Apple for standing up to Google. This is great for an open web.

Really happy to finally see some movement with Thorium. It might not be the magic silver bullet that some people hype it up to be, but it needs to be explored.

I don't think you need to include the MIT license if the source code is not included.

Well this is a bit awkward. It doesn't seem to be a fork at all. or share any code with gemstash.

Google is slowly working on taking over the world, or at least the internet. It is scary how much power we give them.

Although the post is pretty low quality, they are talking about the YCombinator summer batch of 2017.

Oil isn't going anywhere any time soon. We might not use it for energy production, but it is a key ingredient in pretty much any modern technology. From plastics to asphalt. Until we can find away to synthesis or substitute it, it will

With the rise of all of these new streaming services I wonder if we will see a golden age of internet piracy. No one is going to want to pay hundreds of dollars a month just to get different brands of content.

It's really scary the amount of power we free give companies like Facebook and Google.

It seems to be getting worse as well. Not just here, but everywhere online.

Did it learn how to lie though? Did it learn the art of deception and all of the complex concepts behind that? Did it have intent and motive to deceive, Or was it simply a glitch in the underlying logic? The chat bots weren't sentient

They already do. They are just not as open about it. Here in the us when you get your drivers license, or state ID they ensure the photo is optimal for facial recognition. I also wouldn't be surprised if they where starting to do the s
