The entire purpose of a code review is to highlight things that are wrong. You can't point out things that are wrong without someone being able to spin your comments as some kind of toxic masculine impulse to show basal-primate techni

Considering that a good number of people used NetZero back in the day, this isn't a stretch. We've come to accept privacy as a luxury service.

Yeah, I cut my teeth on Backbone and I'm super glad for the experience. And as git-pull mentioned, the source code is nicely annotated (and concise), so it makes debugging easy.

Yeah, that's always been one of my points: existing cab fares are probably already close to the the price to sustain a business and pay a living wage. Like you said, cab drivers (and probably cab company owners) aren't exactly fat

They don't make it obvious, but 1Password still offers a standalone version on Windows/macOS. And KeePassX allows you to manage your own synchronisation.

Fair point on the upvoters, but I still stand by my point on the submitter. Who has the time to submit an article to HN every day?

Pretty much. I wonder how many people actually read the article.

The author is a lifestyle blogger, not a tech savvy person.

Leveraging an email to steal anything is nothing new. If this is arguably a revelation, I should start asking this as an interview question. Also, the author never explicitly mentions to secure your email address. In the 2000s, domain hijac

Dead people can't fill out surveys. ;) I knew of the attack at Ataturk Airport and I'm fine with a layover there. I'd even change to a stopover to hang out in Istanbul again, but don't have the time this trip. If you can

The problem was the wifi was incapable of handling all the passengers trying to connect throughout the entire flight from SFO to LHR. Even if I wanted to pay them money to watch a movie, I couldn't. So United saved costs by not retrofi

As an anecdote, I've flown United and Turkish across the Atlantic and it's a world of difference. In 2016 , the United airplane I was in still did not have a seatback screen and they expected all 200+ passengers to connect to the

Yup. To clarify, I was pointing out that the author may not have been aware of the hubris of "making the world a better place" or how little meaning it holds for those that have been here for a while. I think if he were to read th

Newer developments will have commercial spaces on the ground floor, but a problem is that rents are generally higher, so it limits the types of shops that open up there. In San Francisco, I've talked to the owners of a few bikeshops, a

Many people will say Leipzig, and it's true to a certain extent. Berlin is very unique in its tolerance. As you move eastward in Europe, that may not be the case. Of course if you're white or really attractive, these are non-issue

Thanks for sharing your story. I never got the garage door springs talk from my parents either, and only heard about this randomly on the internet last year. Hope other folks will pay heed to their potential destruction.

I agree with you that most Lyft/Uber drivers don't have a sense of the environment compared to traditional cab drivers. Who decides it's a good idea to double-park on Oak Street to let someone off? Riding in SoMa requires one

True, tech in general seems much more accepting of different educational backgrounds. And affordable education is a really good point.
