As a corollary, I wonder if Slack will now implement calling functionality once Mozilla adds the necessary APIs for Apple to do its job here, which is probably very likely since I don't think Apple chose to ignore a non-Google browser

Everyone who matters to the government already has this information and more. At least with these new HealthKit features we can act on our own information instead of being separated from it. Also, if I was a business owner, I would 100% wan

I think my own app, Unreplied, just got Sherlocked actually. It never had a huge user base but it would let you view unreplied iMessages (as the name implied). On to greener pastures I guess!

Does it matter? As long as you can run gcc/Python/node/whatever you can always build software for macOS.

It's also not even true as the author admits: iOS 1.0 and OS X shared the same kernel, most libraries, and even many drivers. Does anyone think that a Linux distro without audio drivers is a completely different operating system from a

Ah okay. Weird design choice since it doesn't seem to be authenticating anything, but glad that you thought about it!

I agree with this so much and I have my own blog already. It's hard to come up with unique content and I think my writing excels when I'm replying to something - when someone else has written something and I feel like I can cont

Not sure if you've censored that auth token preemptively, but if not, you should consider it :)

It would obviously be useless if they released the spec for it but you couldn't use it to connect to existing FaceTime devices.

From the perspective of the customer to Apple - this is the opposite of customer service. It's not my problem if you built some new system that doesn't work with my data; you let me do whatever I wanted and didn't warn me tha

In an alternate universe every app takes on a personality with their own name, and we treat installing apps like hiring people to be part of our personal life's team. Kind of a cool idea but you'd need to own the entire ecosystem

I'll give you an unrelated example - I watch lots of developer conference presentations and read articles on developer blogs. My pet peeve is when writers include reaction GIFs in between some code example or one-sentence epiphany. I&#

It was my understanding that this sort of combinatorial logic is used by every CPU's control unit - is this outdated? What do modern chips use now?

From poking around it doesn't seem like you're using a framework like React or Vue - if this is straight HTML/CSS/JS it should be possible to just save the page and all its dependencies and it would work flawlessly (minu

It's not just convincing someone to buy from you - there has to be enough volume available on exchanges to fulfill your order. I posit this is the real reason why nobody has tried attacking low difficulty coins. You probably wouldn&#x2

I love this! Excellent combination of GUI and textarea. Does it keep working if you cmd+save it locally?

Any jamming attempts would have to be localized within a certain radius. Jamming an entire country's worth of area is probably untenable unless you are a really small country. Even then you could e.g. route communications across the bo

This makes me wonder how a Hacker News-for-politicians variant would fare, if political managers at various levels in the chain could post under a pseudonym to bring high level attention to some broken or un-oiled cog. Not necessarily for c

Fair point. I was under the assumption that subpoenaing certs at least for domestic entities was common place. I guess that barrier hasn't been crossed yet, or at least we assume so?

By E2E you mean SSL and not actually end-to-end right? AFAIK no provider transports HTTP packets over the wire E2E in the same way that Signal or Telegram transports text messages E2E. It's not actually possible since there is no way t

Bingo. IRC tried the strategy of banning users by IP and half the time you'd end up k-lining entire countries because their ISPs were too cheap to buy more endpoints.
