I think the biggest misunderstanding is that Antifa is some sort of group or organised movement. That's it. Of course being anti-fascist or anti-capitalist are some of the main talking points of left wing protesters and sure, there mig

But why would that be beneficial? Having the terminal multiplexer "in th shell" seems so much more convenient. I use Alacritty and tmux but I always open tmux anyway.

Yeah.. I really don't get it. Also, why is being "woke" a bad thing? Would love a thorough explanation.

I use flatpaks all the time and I almost always have to adjust these permissions to be more restrictive. It's really not an issue with flatpak itself, it's the maintainers who give permissions that are not restrictive enough. It&#

When I tested out eBPF a couple weeks ago I immediately had LittleSnitch in mind! Great to see that someone had the same idea and also the time to make it happen. There's much more that can be done as well, I really highly recommend ta

Yes, you got it. Important is that a wave has a frequency and also a shape (e.g. sine, square, etc.). Even if the shape is different and the frequency is the same, the "pitch" is the same. The shape is the "timbre", or w

Not sure why he said that it's a lie. I have had lucid and vivid dreams that felt very real. The most significant one was when I "woke up" but in a dream. I then woke up again but this time for real. It was so surreal and at

Looking at US politics as a european, it seems like the republicans are far right and the democrats are center left. The problem is how these two parties have a duopoly. I'm pretty sure that Sanders supporters and other more progressiv

What I truly don't understand is how many people invest into BitCoin. There seems to be a complete disregard of its problems and its technical limitations. Why would they choose the "flawed prototype" for their investments? I

They could have. If they shorted again on tuesday at >300 they could have made a lot of money by covering the next day when the price dropped due to the buy restrictions. At one point in the aftermarket the stock even hit 500$ and the ne

I don't think that Robinhood had any other choice here. Their partner is Citadel, which is basically a "middleman" broker. Citadels main business is this, for every incoming stock purchase, they buy stock at an amount that is

If Melvin Capital got out, then why was the stock still 140% shorted after that announcement? I thought that 11% of the shorted stock was from Melvin Capital, it doesn't make sense that there was no significant change in that figure. I

I saw this coming from a mile away because the way these threads were used was entirely new. Essentially, threads were used more like live chats where people reacted to the stock price. Everytime a thread hit the 100k comment limit, they ha

This was my first and last "gambling session" with stocks. Bought in at 70 and sold at 380. Really glad that I got lucky for once but I'm never gonna do that again!

True. It will render the web and certain CAPTCHA systems entirely broken. What we need instead is more control on what can be accessed with javascript. Things like screen and window size, locale etc. should all be spoofable and configurable

In this case they have actually a pretty interesting goal and motivation. They chose GME because it had a short ratio of 138%. Basically, big hedge funds were betting on the downfall and demise of this stock excessively. What WSB daytraders

I don't think the Hacker News crowd likes this and that is reflected in the top comments. I can see why someone had the urge to build this seeing as this capitol riot was perhaps the biggest threat to american democracy in recent years

That is interesting, because in my experience trainers and weight lifters tell you the opposite. I have been told to start with light weights and to slowly progress, even if I could have started with heavier weights and would have seen resu

Okay, noted. I use a third party client on Android which works fine, but I haven't tried thw official one.

I am very optimistic about GNUnet, which uses the decentralized Gnu Name System. It's in its early stages but already works pretty well.

The newest version of NextCloud is perfectly fine, not sure if you have tried that. It is fast, extensible and due to its status, many clients and apps can sync to NextCloud. At this point it is known enough, that it can replace sonething l

Try njalla, a privacy focused domain provider. It was founded by Peter Sunde, one of the original creators of The Pirate Bay. You can pay with crypto currencies and they even have a .onion domain of their website, so you can reach them over

I disagree. This might be true for professional athletes but not for the average athlete. So I would not use that to conclude what the average person should do. Professional athletes are rare and to get into that position, they also have to

I think you read too much into their comment. You can't deduce from the comment that they're any kind of apologist. They just made the assumption that there must already be more cameras and surveillance but they didn't state

Since then, they seem to have open sourced their client applications, so it should at least be possible to verify e2e encryption of messages. That isn't to say that metadata isn't valuable as well, of course.

The same also goes for: "Learn X in Y". People not only learn at a different pace, they also learn in different ways that take shorter or longer. And in most cases, this is just an introduction anyway and in no way enough to reall

It's hard, coming from C because C is a small language with not many keywords. As a hobby programmer I did not know about generics and such and the differences between pointers and references. Learning Rust kind of feels like brute-for

Truly. That's the magic of Hacker News, the people behind it always show up and even give more context and insights.

The problem is that these people relied on this infrastructure in the first place. A president has the necessary means for an official communications channel, I can't quite figure out why he chose Twitter, a service provided by a priva
