It appears to me that this article, at least the title, is wrong. The update simply adds a local only api that apps can ise, it doesn't do any scanning. And Google sent out a notification that they plan to use this API in an update t

Longer term, I think our best hope is the Servo project, and I would encourage anyone who is able to support Servo development.

Thank you for sharing that information. It seems like the foundation has been slowly moving in the right direction. I may have written a bit too harshly in my previous comment. I have been checking in on the development of Matrix, the Fou

I love the concept behind the Matrix protocol, but I have zero faith in the Matrix Foundations ability to execute. Folks have been asking for financial tranparency for years now ( https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-sp

Okay, I can see your point. I thought this was under the question "Why would anyone living in a democracy be against this?" but I see now it was a response to the other question that was response to that question. It seems like t

Almost all of the countries we label as "democracies" have constitutions, and many of those constitutions limit what can be "democratically voted for". In the United States, the constitution has strict limits on ceasein

You would think that a real police officer would have reviewed all of the video themselves and checked the work of the facial recognition system. The software is just there to help narrow down what the officer needs to manually review. Li

None of this seems to indicate a belief in faith being "intentionally separate from truth".

by ensignavenger 2y ago
"faith is intentionally separate from truth" Do you have a citation for this? I am reasonably familiar with Mormonism (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) and I don't think I have ever heard this before?

Because the Wordpress organization is a nonprofit, the organizations assets can't be used to the exclusive benefit of a for profit- Automatic. And therein lies the issue- Mullenweg attempted to weaponize the nonprofits assets against

As an American, I saw the picture and thought "that looks like an ordinary pairing knife", which the article mentions... are Californians really not familiar with pairing knives? Seems like an odd choice for cutting meat, but wha

I concur, it is a pain. The US absolutely needs to improve! The point I was making is that the idea of free, unrestrained, unlimited healthcare in Europe is a myth.

You do realize that Euroean countris also decide what drugs and procedures they will cover on their national health plans too? Because you have a more limited set of options, your doctors will know what is covered and only recomend tose op

Nobody is demanding anything. They simply stated what they value as a consumer, and if GOG wants more of their business, what they need to do to earn it. This is valuable feedback to any company.

Isn't that always the case with bundles and suites? Google Workspace has always been a bundle of products, and few actually used every product in the bundle.

Zulip is another one, mentioned in a sibling comment. Matrix/Element is used by some companies. Nextcloud Chat exists, but I don't know much about it.

That sounds like a TaskRabbit vulnerability (in your example), not a Google vuln? It is also a vulnerability in any email based sign in, which relies on email alone without a password to demonstrate account ownership. (Including password

A pedestrian scramble means that no vehicles should be moving through the intersection period. It is a time in the cycle where ALL vehicles stop, and pedestrians can use the intersection freely in any direction, including diagonally.

I would prefer a more permissive license, such as MIT or Apache. Zulip is similar software, produced by a commercial company, and it is MIT licensed. The primary reason for this is that it isn't always clear with copyleft licenses wh

Which is why strongly favoring products that are already real open source is the best business decision.
