Will GMail support binary files and password protected archives again? It's pretty off-putting - instead of just sending or adding a warning message, GMail blocks such files.

The summaries look like generated by markov chain algorithms. You need some training articles, and then it generates such sentences. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain

Was HN affected by Cloudbleed? I would rather access HN without Cloudflare as man-in-the-middle, especially over HTTPS.

Have fond memory of PSC as well. It was cool and featureful before Sourceforge and later Github came along.

It would be great to have a new modern open source email app on iOS, Android and desktop OS. I want a GMail app clone (conversation view), but open source (= doesn't phone home to the creator) that works with IMAP. Vivaldi browser (uno

Exactly. 110k USD is like a penny for a top 5000 company and foreign state actors.

Can someone correct me. SVN/Subversion and GIT are affected by SHA-1 problem. SVN uses SHA-1 internally, but exposes only a numeric int as revision. GIT uses SHA-1 internally and as revision. So if someone commit a modified PDF that co

What does red bar means? (I tried it with "news.ycombinator.com" which is a Cloudflare CDN customer.) I reseted my HN password yesterday, just in case, as I found HN in the cloudbleed list.

I am with you. It would be better news sites have their own comment system. It's very sad that most US news sites axed their comment section or just include the crud FB comment widget. It's appalling that even sites like IMDb remo

How is the single core performance in real world beside benchmarks? AMD mentions some AI technology to improve the perf. If one runs the same software many times, will the performance change? It could be good if it learns and improves the p

Cloudflare f*cked up big time. It's not the responsible for other third parties to clean up the mess. Especially it won't happen 100% world wide anyway, there are too many parties who have indexes (public or private). In the end C

I avoid to use the following, and delegate: SAP R3 - an popular ERP (enterprise resource planning) - think of an 1980s terminal application reskinned with 1998-fancy-theme - the application is still designed for 14" CRT, and you can on

How many new power plants are planned? Or do many houses have their own photovoltaic. Optimally, one has a house with 10+KW/H photovoltaic panels at home, an battery storage and an electric car. The battery storage is needed, as one is

What is destroying journalism is also relying too much on news sources like AP, Reuters, etc. Let's call it copy&paste news articles. They should do their homework and investigate on their own, that's their job description aft

What about Win7 drivers? Even if the Redmond based company doesn't like marketing about it (an understatement) - please support it. (Recently AMD announced Win7 support only to remove the announcement after after a few days.) Even Inte
