I honestly think that this story (from the title) is just a clickbait. Ofcourse you need a central server to share the keys and you need to trust that central server. How do you make sure WhatsApp hasn't changed the keys in middle - th

Known backdoors? Can you back that up with a source? Custom implementation is likely because they want to strike a balance between security and usability.

That's an unfortunate comparison. Go came around 10 years back and has started to become mainstream fairly recently. PHP has been around for 25 years. So ofcourse the number of libraries you see in PHP are much more and hence much more

Do you need to pay capital gains tax on such winnings (or may be some other tax). How will one declare the source.

I think its the opposite. The reason whatsapp was not getting approval was for the fear of monopoly. They brought this rule just before allowing WhatsApp. Also note that existing players still have time to comply but WhatsApp has to comply

What I have seen in the companies that I have worked in - Initially every engineer does everything - Growth gives birth to independent SRE teams. Now we have engineers who does only SRE - We realised SRE is bottle neck for product teams. SR

Yes it is really provider issue. Apple implemented it and so can any other provider. I also don't think people want an IDP that provides fake data when you deny a scope. That's a bad implementation IMHO. When you say no that means

Your first point is actually not a OAuth issue, but how the provider designed it. You can build an OAuth provider that don't need to disclose anything(not even email)

Made a mental note to buy only the dumb tv. If I want streaming options I would rather setup my own. Or for non-tech I would recommend dumb tv + apple tv or Chromecast

I don't know what author is trying to say here. Should I develop everything from scratch and myself? I would actually recommend opposite.. look what you can buy before deciding to build it yourself(considering a lot of factors).

Wanting to clear whiteboard interviews and becoming a good programmer are two different things. They have a very small part in common but that's it. Not saying wanting to clear interviews is bad, but you got to decide what you want to

First thing first, Do you enjoy programming ? If yes, then in my opinion you are already good. One advice that I will give to you to become better is read. Read a lot of code from seasoned programmers, existing open source applications. You

I think this sampling is not good enough. Tikona is not even close to being a major player in India. I am paying 3.5$/month for a 4G connection with 1.5 GB data every day.

Genuine Question: Can/Does apple allow some apps to not show this warning. I don't have an iphone but if safari has a feature like Chrome to show the copied url then this should pop up every time I open safari. Which is not good f
