This is why I try to only open links with domain names that match the website / provider. If you want to use a third party mailing list, marketing juicer or link tracker, go nuts, but you won't be getting my clicks.

Caching attachments at a single nice, big, juicy honeypot like CloudFlare is one of the reasons Signal's privacy guarantees don't feel totally solid to me. I get that it's pragmatic, but feel there must be a better way. Does

There's some truth to that, but I'm not sold it's universally the case (or needs to be). Speaking for myself, I pushed those minor updates - with lots of little feature enhancements - as soon as they were ready (sometimes mer

Yes, I did so for 10+ years, about 15 years ago. It launched my business (which then evolved to include a lot of consulting). I charged for major version upgrades that introduced substantial new functionality (discounted for existing custo

I'm pretty sure I changed regions once on my old iPhone over a decade ago and it was fairly seamless. Maybe someone who's done it more recently can comment? It would be brutal if what you say is true. Simply moving is not somethi

It's not the linked article content. It's an even more audience-tailored version that I assume they made up, for our amusement.

Jargon like that in the link makes the message less precise and more meaningless, in my view. Just simply state what you mean. Let the other person ask questions if they need clarification.

This would be even more exciting if there were some way to guarantee your phone, the servers, etc. are running untampered implementations, and that the proxies aren't colluding with Apple.

Was there ever a case in the wild of malware being installed into a host by inserting a floppy disk, without entailing the user boot off it, run a program from it, open a datafile crafted to exploit existing software, etc? I always thought

The machine I'm typing this on is a 'whitebox' build I put together in 2010. I build computers to last - the specs were high-end at the time, and have been upgraded over the years (video card, RAID controller, SSD's, etc

I'd be curious about the results over 1000 years and 10,000 years. In the case of the latter I wonder if the concept of prices as we understand them today will even still be a thing.

Good advice. I created and sold software (and services) for over a decade, and could never have lived with myself if I'd treated customers the way the original article describes.
