I don't see any mention of the cost. Is that listed somewhere?

I get why companies feel they need to do this (although I personally find the tracking to never be OK). I'd suggest a modified approach to these "please turn off" notices: Show a form asking for alternatives and also having

Learn why things work, not just how to make something work. You'll probably have plenty of times where you know that "if I write this line of code, this thing happens, and that solves the problem". Dig into exactly what th

Insulting the people you want to join you seems line a poor way to get support: "...work-shy benefit scroungers, strike-hungry air traffic controllers, long-living pensioners, unruly refugees, and all other local pests from the neighbo

How does this work for booting up a database or other systems to run integration tests and such? I don't see anything about that sort of thing. Is the idea to bake everything into a single docker image and run that? Also, what are t

Oh wow, that's a faster tile generation rate than I was expecting. What are the specs on the machines/VMs you're using to get those rates?

Thanks for the docker image pointers; just what I was looking form. What kind of traffic volume can you handle on what size VM's?

Are Firefox passwords encrypted on the client? I currently use (any pay for) Bitwarden and I like that the code is open and my data is encrypted on the client and only synced with the server. I'd like a similar service from Mozilla,

Nice to see another system available for this. The only other I knew of was Piwik (which now I see is Matomo).

We specifically hired a "support engineer" and got lucky finding an excellent person for the role. She understands how software works so can debug strange things without needing developers to get involved, but is also extremely p

From the comments on that page it sounds like you just need to fill out the form with anything and you get the file. No validation. Also libraries :) Anyway, I hope it's a clever trick to get people to feel like they beat the system

Yes, please do block all those customers. What a terrific business opportunity for new companies to enter markets previously full of strong competition!

Is there a bunch of work going on from the team there in preparation for the Purism Librem 5, or is that mostly their efforts that happen to rely on your tech?

Yup. Perhaps this will eventually be a screen for the user to choose: Button 1: Agree and proceed. Button 2: Set up credit card billing. Button 3: Close account.

Does anyone know of good options with 32gb of ram? I have been happy with my 2 different dell xps machines and ubuntu, but everything still maxes out at 16gb ram.

With a few companies working on global, fast, low-latency satellite internet it seems that censorship will get much harder. I'd guess the place to stop people would be in preventing them from paying for the service. Are there still w

@josephsunny I'm curious how the money works out after Paypal/stripe get their cut. From what I've seen transactions run around 3% + $0.30. Operating in small amounts seems like the fees would sink any such effort. Have yo

I haven't kept up with their progress, but looking today I see they're on the 2nd rev of the hardware now, which I take as a positive sign that they're still plugging away. https://mycroft.ai/ You can even go
