well, that was a letdown. started strong, explaining the problem and how we can't trust users to do the right thing. but then ended up telling me that users should do the right thing...

wonderful remark. i have this nagging feeling that nothing good ever comes out when there is a large group of people involved. and that the most successful communities, teams or groups are small. i have seen small communities ruined when th

i thought github displayed latex? would be nice if this repo also included the mathematical symbols. speaking of that, would be nice if github provided rendering of music notation :)

i understand what you are trying to say. people mentioning android have forgotten that android hides many parts of linux. and manufacturers make sure your device hardware works well with the operating system. other have mentioned relatives

no that's not true. someone who said they were working for apple contradicted that fact in the other thread. i personally find the claims weird and have never seen it anywhere. my experience is that some employees choose to use company

youtube is my main streaming platform, but i have come to understand the appeal of tiktok. most of the things that are inherent to the tiktok platform, i have to manually do while using youtube. a couple of examples are manually ignoring cl

okay. so today we are redefining what "not logging data" means. it changes meaning when used in the same sentence as the expression "by default". so by default, not logging data is not really not logging data. we've

yep. chrome is now showing me a new "you added this to your cart" feature on my new tab page. it says i have added that product to my "cart". that page is obviously doing something but i can't say anything evil.

legitimacy is not the issue. being legit doesn't make their videos right. "the dodo" has a video of an abused dog out there (that i am not going to link to) that has made countless of views since it came out and is still maki

i made it a rule to mark "not interested" any video "the dodo" puts out there. among many others. something just doesn't seem right with them as a whole. and yet youtube keeps recommending and encouraging these kind

you are quite right. i remember a time when seeing the troll emoji meant someone was being pranked and the small communities i was part of enjoyed the laughter. nowadays, i wouldn't bother using that emoji. besides, i don't think

prefer native. my number one reason is that most native apps care about accessibility (and my other preferences, fonts, UI, etc.) the idea that modern web-based apps (mobile or desktop) provide a modicum of accessibility is laughable at bes
