I don't know much from Andreas other than reading a couple of his posts from here, but he's a bit of a superhero to me. Wholesomely humble guy that started what's usually deemed as a massive coding project, from scratch, just

I'm as surprised with how long it took Youtube and Twitter to add tracking IDs to their links, as with the fact that Instagram and TikTok still have proper URLs at all instead of generating a new unique URL each time you load some cont

Developing-world startup idea here. +90% of Android market share here in Argentina, and probably most South American countries (if not all).

I found the first part of this series in HN's front page a while ago, but I think Part IV was missing back then. It's now fully published - this link is its intro + index. Here are previous discussions for each part: I. https:&#x

Author here :) I went that route since reading the CLI parameters was something I needed to do, but wasn't actually part of the issue I was trying to solve. I could have spent a few cycles of googling+testing+fixing/refactoring, b

Find My doesn't require the passerby to have connectivity _at the time it passes by_. They record where they were when they saw the lost phone, and whenever they get connectivity back, they report that to the owner.

The hotspot didn't provide real Internet connectivity, since there was no service - only the places' WiFi, but out of reach, and the phone can't connect to the WiFi and provide the hotspot at the same time. So probably not.

This, but without the "Find my". Not sure if my cousin would have been able to log into his account from another phone (maybe MFA would be a blocker if he tried), and my hotspot didn't actually provide Internet anyways. I tho

Rationale is "I will be offline, so don't even try to connect". When I'm hikking in the mountains, maybe spending a couple of days up there, I only use my phone for GPS and/or photos - so everything else goes off.

Whenever I go to big concerts or gatherings, I set my lock screen to a screenshot of a WhatsApp story (that I never publish) saying something like that.

WOW. I love this approach. Didn't think of it since I don't usually use Siri (nor Google Assistant, since I'm on Android - as my cousin). SO steampunk to see a group of adults shouting around "HEY GOOGLE" in the woo

The place had Wi-Fi, but the phone was just enough apart from the router to not reach it. The calls were WhatsApp Calls because we knew there was no cell service to make a standard call (don't know if the phone has VoLTE).

There were only one or two iPhones among the 12+ people party we were - and this specific phone was an Android one.

It was dark already. We did a lot of grass-searching with flashlights - but the phone was on top of the ATV, in a tough-to-spot location (by the handlebar or something, between some cables).

> WiFi network mirroring is smart Thanks! I don't usually use bluetooth _that much_ so I didn't think about it. My cousin's truck was around, which was indeed paired with the phone - but it would have been a bit more cumbe

Here in Argentina people sometimes leave inside the freezer an ice cube with a coin on top of it, so they can check if the power went off for a long while - because the coin would be lower in the cube even if it froze back.
