Try threema. They have multimedia, everything is encrypted and group chat works well. - Not open source, it cost a little, but I trust them.

It's the same in Germany. You voice that the many refugees (with often very conservative religious and patriarchal views) pose problems and, päng, you are a nazi. A balanced discourse is (was) no longer possible. (It's getting a b

Well ;-) I didn't want to write what I potentially might have fired away emotionally when such chats appear (something with f* or p* maybe). But many of the examples in the blog I could never ever imagine to write. No happy man or wome

I'm strongly convinced that the 'average HN reader' is well aware of this (sexism) problem. I don't rationalizing it, but I believe, the points you mention are important. And in addition, yes there are idiots on the in

TBH if such an annoying chat robot pops up, my answer could also be a very unfriendly 'go away'. Regarding photo difference this has likely to do with part of the audience which use such a mem maker kapwing site: idiots. An ip loo

Thank you 'British couple'! If I had it my way, Google would be split up (or banned as in China).

Forget Lazarus. There is no (finished) Cocoa for Mac. Development is not on Github. Syntax has no common style. Documentation is uneven. The whole ecosystem feels (well, is) dated. Of course, Lazarus/FPC is still quite nice. But to rea

Correct title should read 'native ad-filtering'. (remark directed towards techcrunch - blocking would e.g. be uBlock Origin)

Yes that's true. Personally I don't care too much about the precise prognoses but about the general idea. 40 years ago, the model was simple and also today I don't think the complexity could be modeled accurately. There are e

Agree. Another sensible way (if you are prepared to 'phone' a bit more frugal) is a Sony Xperia X with Sailfish. (But check together first.)

The Julia v0.5 debugger works. Why upgrade to v0.6 when the debugger is important? I'm sure the debugger will target v1.0. And maybe it was more fun (read interesting)to work on Celeste than to support short-lived intermediary versions

I prefer gogs. Better documentation. Original author. For many more features I use gitlab. With gogs I'm looking for simplicity.

Your question has been asked here [1]. I never used Numba myself but assume from the discussion that it is difficult/impossible to bring user objects into Numba and that due to the extremely rich Python object model one can only make P

Agree with first sentence. Before mostly switching to R more than 10 years ago I tried out Octave/Scilab (and preferred the latter). As for the alternative I'd say, Julia is (will be) a good choice also. Long in the making with a

They could be more frugal. And imo a lot of money has been wasted for bad projects. Rust is very nice though.

I'm optimistic. They added tons of features yes and ended a bit in a (ui) mess. But they will cleanup I'm quite sure. Let them experiment, it's a (good) sign for me that they are courageous and didn't become totally ente

Doesn't the module question overlap with packages? Not all batteries included sounds like you want to install more features using packages. A new package system is in the works and, afaik, should be available with Julia 1.0. Here the J
