In the US, the film is on Netflix. I haven’t seen it yet so I can’t recommend it personally, but I’m looking forward to watching it.

I was going to say the poultry brand ... now _that_ would have been surprising.

Maybe patching is hard. But the real question is why one vuln in their web framework allowed unfettered access to basically all of their data. There are much deeper problems here than slow patching.

Wow, the marginal cost of that 11th user is ridiculous ($67/mo).

This is awesome. I spent a summer in high school at LIGO Hanford (Washington), it's so cool to see positive results starting to come out of it.

Heh, that's true. I should have also mentioned that I generally enjoy iOS programming :)

Two thoughts. First, I also thought Android programming was horrible at first, but have since come to see it as no worse on average than iOS programming. The only really sucky thing about it IMO is the lack of ability to pass an object to a

I think this is great, especially being able to click a tag and see a top 30 list of that tag. Obvious suggestions that would make it usable as a primary HN interface: • Login and voting (not sure the HN API supports this though) • Tag sugg

I was screwed out of my opportunity to fly in an A380 by JetStar, a horrible discount airline in Australia whose random flight delay made us miss our flight out of Sydney. Ended up on a 747.

By my math, Tarsnap is about 10x too expensive for my usage. The $5/mo I pay for Backblaze would get me 20 GB of storage on Tarsnap and no bandwidth, that's pretty poor.

I used to feel that way, and still have absolutely no problem with ads in and of themselves. But they are the ones who breached ethics and morals by tracking me around the web, tracking my search queries, running all sorts of terrible Jav

More like Ford investors: "Let me soberly evaluate the company's present and future financial situation before I make any commitments" Tesla investors: "TAKE MY MONEY"

All of that (which was quite interesting), yet he doesn't actually say what a decibel is. It is: • 0.1 bel • +/-1 bel = +/-10 dB = factor of 10 increase/decrease in power

It is indeed a bit of a pain to set up properly, but it can be done, I have a droplet running it 24/7 and have no problems connecting to it from Apple devices. Here are some helpful guides for setting up: https://www.zeitgei

I'm intrigued by Vue. I am also traumatized by the almost complete lack to continuity from Angular 1 → 2. Does anyone know if API stability is a value of Vue's? I don't want to learn something if it will all be different in 6

So happy they discussed the use of the word "vulgar" in the symbol names, that was interesting.

Yeah, this specific idea might only work well if you're using a password manager. But it was only an example. It could be something as simple as, "You've never submitted a secure form to this site. Please check the address ca

It seems to me that browsers could be smarter about this kind of thing. Like, "Hey, you just put your Gmail credentials into a non-Gmail login form, did you really mean to do that?" Obviously in the HN-type crowd, you know to alwa

Another good reason to run something like Little Snitch. Of course it's also another good reason not to plug random USB keys into your computer. It also seems to me like your OS should warn and confirm when a new input source is detect

A couple of aliases I use all the time: [alias] graph = log --oneline --decorate --graph --all copy-logs-since = !git log --reverse --format=%B "$1".. | pbcopy `graph` is similar to `grog` in the article.
