Which is not remotely illegal, and most brokers do the same thing, except they used to charge people to buy and sell as well but now just make money from order flow. In fact market makers have always been involved in stock sales to ensure a

I always say if politicians want to ban encryption being absolute (by making it insecure): you first. Lets see how well it works by implementing encraption in your systems and email and seeing if your backdoor deals and illegal activity win

I owned an early Apple ][+ and had no idea it was painted. I don't even recall what I did with it given its been 40+ years and I have owned so many Apple devices... The original shade of that Apple was much prettier than the beige shad

I'm probably one of a few people on HN who actually went across The Atlantic on a liner (not a repositioning cruise ship). My grandmother was too afraid to fly, so in the mid 60's we went to Germany (where my family is from) from

A giant project from hell that is likely to be postponed next week, wherein I have to work 10-12 hours a day and never get any vacation. Also, I am going to retire in a couple months, too bad.

As an iOS developer I can relate, Apple makes amazing hardware, but their software development is often meh. I don't think it's malicious, its just they have so many thousands of teams, often working independently of each other, a

At my job its more like 10-12 hours a day, since you are counted on to do 6-8 hrs of programming despite all the other stuff.

If they followed proper security it would be encrypted. All of our Macs at my employer automatically have it on.

Our prod systems seem to be working, but our lower environments seems to be not working. I don't know enough about where these things come from. I wonder if the real problem is regional. Some connections work and some don't.

Also AWS, yet the AWS status page shows all is well. I wonder if all the down services are due to AWS.
