It's not as much "can't view a pdf" as it is "not willing to pull in 20 packages and dependencies to view a pdf." You might as well send it around as a spreadsheet: who doesn't have Excel installed??? I a

I meant it in the "What is this shit?" or "What is this, 2004?" sense. There's no reason to use PDFs, especially when we're talking about developers and development. I'm not going to install a program ju

A PDF? What is this?

MIT killed Aaron. I don't even use their public key database anymore.

No, we're saying that because you're socially oblivious and ignorant of historical and contemporary context you can't see it. Privilege is a contributing factor, but there are plenty of white men who are capable of seeing wh

If you've read this thread top to bottom, you can surely see how nonwhite nonmen don't exactly feel welcome.

I've used more downvotes in this thread that I have in the previous 3 years of being on Hacker News.

Literally every other coding event is "white men code," so don't get so flustered when there's one single one that's not for you. I expect better from Hacker News.

Nobody said dying off, but it's a well-understood fact that humanity is growing at an unsustainable rate.

Which is a very good thing.

I'm an anarchist saying those things, so hello there!

by nilved 13y ago
That's a pretty silly idea of libertarianism. I think you're equating it with things like anarcho-capitalism and minarchism instead of proper anarchism.

Why does anybody care what the judge thinks? Use Tor and crypto and tell them to fuck themselves.

Using xcape and xmodmap, I remapped caps lock to behave like control when held and escape when tapped. That allowed me to remap control to hyper. I've really liked this setup so far.

I love (and host my blog on) Pages, but really can't stand Jekyll. The template language, Liquid, is incredibly restrictive because GitHub wants to sandbox you. I would suggest using nanoc, Middleman, Stasis or similar and compiling

This site uses Cloudflare and I use Tor, so I can't view it. Could somebody mirror?

No, that definition is incorrect.

This is one of HN's more embarrassing traits. Too smart for the Kardashians, but they'll get on their knees before Shamir, Snowden and Schneier. He's been wrong before. Recently, like last week, he was wrong about Satoshi.

I don't know anything about RSA as a company. What does this say about RSA as an algorithm and the company's founders?

Yeah, that's a pretty shameful and classist thing you did. Glad you seem to have learnt your lesson.

Accidental racism is still racism, but this isn't even accidental.

Is this deliberate or accidental racism?

Yes, but the local and remote activity can't be connected. Were somebody to connect and disconnect from Tor in the time surrounding an attack, you could; but you couldn't say that a Tor user is a culprit of an attack that went ov

But if you use Tor for all of your day-to-day browsing, in strict contrast with the OP's recommendation, then there's not such a glaring correlation.

> The public takedowns related to tor have been more about firefox than windows. But I get that Linux fans like to think that this is their sole bailiwick. It's not exactly fanboyism that makes security-conscious people prefer Linux

One of my good friends is married to an NSA employee, so I can tell you (almost) first-hand that they would if they knew her.
