That would work for things like accessing a user’s address book or location but some of the quality control occurs at the App Store review level. I don’t think iOS would be capable of protecting against, for example, the running of hidden c

You're not wrong with your first three lines but do you really think consumers will actually have any meaningful choice if all the trendy but privacy invading apps have their own app store with software free to run rampant on users dev

I do the same thing and it was life changing for me when I discovered this. I just have to remain mindful of making sure to stop the music when I choose to take a break/procrastinate.

I'm only half joking when I say this but I think you're neglecting to consider that the Venn diagram of investors/speculators bullish on Tesla and bullish on BTC is a single circle.

I'm looking to do exactly this as a sideline, but don't know of any examples. It probably depends on your definition of profitable but it must exist. I'm also assuming that at some point of being profitable anyone who achieve

I read a mishmash of different things but my usuals are BBC News, the Guardian, Foreign Affairs magazine, zerohedge, RT, and eurotrib.com. I subscribe to Greenwald and Taibbi on Substack. On reddit I visit r/syriancivilwar. I just canc

Romania for example has a 96% home ownership rate meaning that lots of people don't have a monthly rent or mortgage payment. This takes quite a lot of stress out of life that is universal to people with both a low and a high income. Ho

I’ll try to address all of your points. I’ll start by saying that inciting people to violence is already illegal so I don’t think this particular point needs addressing further. I use the term unpopular speech as a binary divider of speech

The root cause of the things you describe aren’t free speech or filter bubbles. It’s a lack of confidence and trust in our governments and corporations. The fact that those same governments and corporations own our media makes it even worse

I'm mostly in agreement with you, and if the choice were left to me I probably wouldn't have banned Parler from the app stores or AWS. Although I'd have to reconsider if an incoming Biden administration would punish me in any

When it comes to issues like these I tend to agree with the sentiment of "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." But this isn't about criminalising speech promoting conspiracy theo

Since you’re a math teacher maybe it’s a good opportunity for a statistics lesson. What are the chances of them having a negative outcome from covid compared to having a negative outcome from the vaccine. Then they can make an informed choi

I think us being unique in the observable universe is a more extraordinary claim than not being unique. However, in order to be absolutely convinced that such life was visiting Earth I think I'd need quite a lot of evidence.

I think there is a perception that timber houses won’t last a long time. I have no idea how true that is but the brick house I live in is 150 years old and that isn’t considered particularly old. Also even when new builds here are timber fr

Apple has always attracted spirited conversation. I remember Apple computers being referred to as “toys” back in the 80’s because of the GUI and mouse. The discussions of Apple on HN have long and old roots. It’d be interesting to have a lo

Our company’s distributor for B2B physical products takes about 50%. For products that we just buy and sell rather make ourselves we have about a 40% margin. This is all quite normal. Additionally in my industry about 80% of the value chain

You make good points and I've learned something about PWA's, thanks. You also acknowledge that it's in Apple's interest to push native, which is absolutely true. The only thing I would disagree with is that you think &qu

Yeah those are solutions, I'm just struggling to imagine that infrastructure being built in time to not be a major inconvenience. Unless it is built I could see the attraction of not wanting an electric car in 2030.
