I agree with you, I am not going to outsource management of sensitive data to a third party just because they say that they are "100% confidential". You can't trust anyone until they actually show you proof that they are: - T

Except that this is just a manoeuvre from Tsipras to gain time and put the blame on the rest of the EU when they are forced to leave the Eurozone. The referendum is planned for July 5th while Greece's obligations to pay their debts are

I am completely unfamiliar with Elixir but I love the aesthetics of the language. That's a really neat piece of work, thank you for sharing. I often wonder what are some good usecases for Elixir? What kind of problem do you solve using

I think your read the parent comment wrong. OP is specifically talking about devolving from a high-trust environment to a lower (or low) one. China (afaik) is just an environment with low social trust. That's an interesting counter-a

I remember attending a talk by Eric Diep from "A thinking Ape" (gaming studio) at Hack the North. If I am not mistaken, he mentioned that they were backed by YC and a couple other high-profile investor in the valley.

Correct me if I am wrong but client side sanitization does not really count. It is really easy to bypass that check (send packets directly to the backend or use dev tools for example)

All I see is one person expressing their reservations, which I think is quite legitimate given the novelty that Drew's YC app was at the time. Either way how is that a bad thing? Feedback is crucial at such an early stage. Maybe I read
