Even if a company designed, built, and marketed their own product in house, Amazon can take the business data they possess such as detailed sales flows, customer activity and supply chains to swoop in. This data normally unavailable to a co

Then why are you on HN? HN is a great example of where people can speak honestly and respectfully without worry of recrimination from companies or governments.

European towns were generally laid out in the days of horses and pedestrians before asphalt, cars, and sprawl. So it is easier for them to revert to bikeways and walkways. US cities were generally laid out when the US was the biggest oil pr

Increasing the pressure levels could not have produced such extensive damage. It was explosives. If Russia wanted to stop the flow, they could simply turn off the valves on their side rather than blow up their own infrastructure they spent

My partner gets a little embarrassed when I make a scene about this, but I persist. My bar tab is one of the last things I want going on my permanent record.

It is an apt metaphor I use regularly as I have a large and growing vegetable and flower garden as well as a growing server farm with services I tend to more than others. They are both labors of love, learning, and growth. I share the fruit

It is fall and mushroom picking time! Here is my simple advice: The first mushrooms you should get to know in your area are the deadly ones. When you find a mushroom that looks like an edible one, temper your enthusiasm and be realistic. Mi

We need modular phones like the frame.work laptop. This is possible with some limitations, but Apple and others will not make as much money. Battery replacement is a no brainer, but why can't the camera and other components be a module

Why does Snapchat not have E2EE (End to end encryption)?

I thought so too, but someone needs to set that in the message which perhaps they forget. The problem with Snapchat is that it is not E2EE (End to end encrypted). Snapchat seems to sit in a strange place of being a little more private than

You may have much more faith in US regulatory agencies and government than me. Does knowingly participating in a corrupt platform or business make one complicit? This is why I opted out. If more people would make decisions with conscience,

This is great. People should never use the number associated to their SIM card anyway as it allows telcos and others to track location and more. You can switch your real number to a VOIP provider such as voip.ms and use Linphone or other ap

Everybody should just install Signal and be done with this nonsense. Teach children that when they use Imessages, Apple can intercept them. This is not a complete endorsement for Signal as decentralized E2EE protocols are better for other r

I agree. Maybe in the donation drives, they should threaten ads if a target is not met. This might avoid this drastic step and surprise to users.

This gives me an idea for my Halloween costume this year. I am going to be a green bubble. I am actually proud to be one anyway.

This looks like classic bait and switch in the tech industry. "Trust us, we are only interested in selling you hardware and maybe some services that protect your privacy." Once the people are sufficiently captured and wires deeply

Need to mention here that yunohost.org is a great easy solution for your RPI or any other hardware or VPS. It is maintained by a great community that takes care of most of the essentials and provides a great webUI for installation and maint
