Come on now, the author clearly not only has strong opinions about privacy but also enjoys messing around with weird hardware and AT commands and whatnot. That's not no reason, that's having a great time,.

Amazing read! One detail jumped out at me: > Frustrated, one of the lawyers asked “Why did you have to put Chrome first?” Confused, I explained that we did not give any priority to Chrome. Our boss, in on the conspiracy with us, had tho

This has been going on for decades. I once did a brief consulting stint at what was then considered one of the most innovative, startuppy departments of Philips Healthcare, and it was by far the slowest-moving, least productive software tea

I'm pretty sure the GP was talking about their subscription payments to Fastmail. But I admit that you got me curious, do you really expect a substantial increase in power consumption due to Fastmail getting a % of their customers to r

This is like explaining what JavaScript is under a post about React. There’s no shame in not knowing accessibility basics, but there’s also no need to act like it’s ridiculous to expect the reader to know some.

This is my entire point. It’s because Sweden has many parties and their math groups politically close parties with politically distant parties as “the outparty”. It might be correct, but if the Swedes weren’t modest at all but deeply hated

They define in-party and out-party very weirdly for multiparty systems like the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway. In NL, if I'm a leftie, I have 3-4 reasonable parties to choose from. Most people voting for any of these parties won'

> improved codebase I've seen lots of claims about AI coding skill, but that one might be able to improve (and not merely passably extend) a codebase is a new one. I'd want to see it before I believe it.

This is the part of the argument I don’t get. A digital ID system like the one in NL is basically just a login system. It’s oauth for public services, not too different from “sign in with Google”. How does that lead to perfect law enforceme
