They have to buy their own keywords so that others aren't first in the listings right? They don't want Samsung to be the first thing you see. Hilarious and sad at the same time.

You're not arguing with the op, I never said he wasn't a journalist. He obviously was, being a publisher. I said he lost goodwill and arguably integrity. > Would you get bent out of shape.. Of course I wouldn't. I'

The ACLU has (in)famously defended the kkk and other nationalists with terrible ideas. Hyperbole is useful for illustrating a point, but I don't know if that is warranted here.

I don't think ignorance and fraud are mutually exclusive. I think he has put both on display to a pretty significant degree, personally.

Do you think it was a combination of the adrenaline and the near-death-experience aspect of skydiving that did it for you? Or something less obvious?

That slowness is tied to the GC, which you can swap in and out with others or turn off. I feel like this is a really undersold feature of the language.

He was 19 there right? Thankfully I've seen people who were writing keyloggers at that age be very decent, good people, so that article isn't an indictment of who he is now - plenty of things to look at more recent than that. It

Sonic pi totally can be used for that - I've made some classical compositions with it, however not live. I've really needed pre-built abstractions to get to the point where I can improvise akin to when I play a guitar or saxapho

Discovery. If you and another were texting each other via SMS, but signal was your app, signal would just upgrade your sms to a signal msg. You didn't have to have a conversation ahead of time, or save them in your contacts and let s

From tcl/tk to juce - there is a lot to be said about that. Taking in all the FUDI commands from pdsend, and then translating it into a Juce GUI is pretty, and pretty neat. Especially if you can organize the patch cords. You may sta

It actually wasn't Amazon links, but links to sites partnered with brave, like binance and Coinbase. They didn't seem to know about it ahead of time.

Oh, you're right about the autocomplete - which seems to have been restricted to not just binance, but a few other partnered companies - it might be a bit blown out of proportion - Still have to consider it and look at the UI; unwittin

Well, they did mislead people on where that crypto went at one point, and at one point also hijacked Amazon referral links. The anti-brave sentiment isn't all anti-crypto zeal, imo. Edit: it wasn't Amazon referral links but compa

They were, for a time, taking donations on behalf of websites despite those websites not knowing that brave existed, or the donors not knowing that their donation was going to an unclaimed wallet. I can't remember what happened to the

I feel like their attempt to be taxable is contrary to the traditional reasons for using a digital currency. Even then, I would be surprised if a government uses taler rather than their own implementation. Always wanted to talk to the gnu

I know you are more exclaiming than asking, or it reads that way, but it is seriously a lifestyle. Many mushrooms are only foraged as there just aren't farmers, but past that, it is kind of a prestige culture. Pride, and generations

I'm curious how long it will be before that public incident - they rolled their own cryptography right? With that, I would imagine that if it hasn't been pwned yet, then there would be a disproportionate amount of people trying t

The SMS symbol was a dull grey circle with a paper plane and an open lock, while the encrypted message was a big blue circle with a lock in the center. You had to choose purposefully with a long press on that button to use SMS if that is w

The network effect of signal not being a hub for SMS and e2ee will mean less people using e2ee, IMO.

Signal could SMS anyone in your regular contacts app; the fallback option in tfa is what doesn't force people. Now, it will.
