People have different preferences when it comes to online identity. Personally, I believe that for me it’s easier to behave reasonably and hold myself accountable when not being anonymous.

Ha! Didn’t know. Very cool IMHO.

Yeah, IMHO Debian feels much more dependable.

Very cool project! I also find it curious that they are sponsored by a real estate site (:

AFAIK: Correct Horse Battery Staple is good! The main benefit is that with this scheme, it’s much much easier for a human to memorize, compared to a random string. A random string is still secure, given that it has enough entropy. I would s

Does Windows really not show any warnings at all in such a case? I would assume it does, but I’m not sure.

It it really was a certificate from Microsoft, why would it not be bundled with Windows?

This is not acceptable. I would avoid this application, at all costs. You should never install a root certificate from someone, unless you want them to be able to silently MITM any TLS connection from your machine.

There was a similar question a few months ago, here’s what I answered back then: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38702378 Best of luck!

I haven’t read it in physical form, but maybe Revolution in the Valley: The Insanely Great Story of How the Mac Was Made by Andy Hertzfeld? AFAICT it’s based on the stories from https://folklore.org/ , so I ought to be goo

I love it when Clifford Stoll chips in <3 And there’s also this TeX guy, can’t recall his name right now. Very interesting to hear. And the legendary Putnam comeback is also unforgettable. Plus the Dropbox dismissal, of course.

Never tried it myself, I’m on macOS. But if you go with an x86 one I think hardware support is good. If you’re interested in Apple Silicon, check this: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support

A quick web search yielded these shops, if you decide to go for the Apple hardware: https://maconline.de/gebrauchte-macs-kaufen.html https://www.rebuy.de/ https://www.backmarket.de/ If they

You might want to say your budget, otherwise it’s hard to give relevant advice. Also, do you prefer Linux over macOS? If so, I would probably not pay the premium for the Apple hardware. (It’s very nice hardware though…)

Are you saying it’s cheap to print and bind small batches of high-quality books with color photos?

Hopefully this should be sufficient. If not, filing a claim with a small claims court might be the next step. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_claims_court

Is there a tech scene in Dubai?

Many of those companies don’t know what they’re doing. They make the computer less secure instead of more secure.

It can be quite hard to be kind when it comes to a highly inflammatory topic such as Palestine–Israel. However, IMHO it’s not really a topic suited for HN. I find it hard to believe that whatever we say here on this topic will have any mean

If you look in blockchain, antivirus or AI, you’ll find heaps of snake oil salesmen.

Yeah we knew (or strongly suspected) that long before Snowden, NSA had massive capabilities. I think one reason that this knowledge faded into the background is that in the 80s/90s it was mostly tech geeks who where concerned. Many peo

AFAICT it could be useful for embedded devices.

“Talk to your manager, describe the problem you're facing, your proposal to trial going off Slack for 2 hours (or whatever) at a time, and see what they think.” Depends on the role and the org I guess, but for me I just mute notifica
