Too bad it's only flatpak, I'd try it out if it had an AppImage.

On one Windows box I once put my password in for a private Github site. Never had to do that again, it just 'remembered' it... Not what I would expect or want.

The majority of coding or software engineering jobs are not about solving hard problems. Just implementing stuff, getting ideas to work. I agree that most of the code will be trivial.

Yes, "people largely relied on oral history", but don't underestimate the power of that. We are now (kept) so busy that we don't listen to stories being passed down, but this used to be very different! Also, if your know

As to "the previously conquered people considered themselves Romans and spoke Latin", I don't believe everybody spoke Latin, as even in what we now call Italy, people kept speaking their various regional languages, let alone

It's called indentation, and your team apparently uses a fixed number of spaces as chosen by the author.

No, that is its exact special purpose. And why have more than a single one??

Very few where you can delete or insert whitespace at will, (even if only in the middle of 'identifiers'). I am fine with a (single) space being an important part of syntax, just don't use more than 1 please.

It would be crazy that spaces would have "won" because of the silly idiosyncratic alignment that some people seem to like and then teach to others for many decades.

This "broken alignment" only happens when you mix tabs and spaces. If you do not align (with spaces) then all is fine. Please do not align at all, it is too arbitrary and altogether unnecessary.

Really please stop aligning with spaces!

I am very much against any alignment with spaces, just not needed, and adding a lot of unnecessary complexity to code formatting. Just use tabs for indentation, and don't mix them with spaces.

Just flash/flush the embedded encryption key, the SSD remains usable with a/the new encryption key. This just seems like a way to increase sales...

Sorry, that's just complete bullshit. How LLMs work in no way models how processes in the human brain works.

Yes, I think the deltachat people should have gone with a different (still open source of course) encryption method that supports forward secrecy, and not try to be compatible with encrypted emailing. You can still use the email server/

The Delta Chat ecosystem runs on systems that only accept encrypted emails. You access it through a Delta Chat client, you don't use a Gmail or Outlook-managed inbox.

I really think people would be safer communicating their sensitive messages on Delta Chat than on Signal. Both are encrypted securely enough, and the endpoints being compromised is probably the biggest threat in both cases, but with Signal

The point of Delta Chat is that the email system IS securable, and E2EE is possible within the Delta Chat ecosystem while they use well-established and understood technology, software and infrastructure. The idea is sound and charming, and

You are not expected to use your regular email address, you get assigned a random email address that gets tied to your account (and your chosen username, but I think that can be changed) and the servers that store uncollected messages are o
