You have a bias, I know plenty of people who are just content making a great product and don't sell out their customers. Maybe they don't get to be yacht-rich. But not everybody wants that. Maybe hard to imagine in these HN circle

I always use my master key, verifying using other devices does not always work optimally in my experience. Maybe I switched to ElementX too soon...

I love Martix/Element, and about the only thing I don't like is that I need moar features! We have a space with several rooms for our FOSDEM devroom, it's been working flawlessly, including for all our video calls with many p

Let's not forget a team making a great free product. Yeah we can complain about filthy materials but imagine you working hard to build something as nice as Matrix/Element only for these low-lifes to do these horrible things to it.

Does it? I'm more about trusting persons than ever. When the shareholders comes, thats when the enshitification process really starts. I also wish Tony Fadell would take over Nest again.

He does, doesn’t he. For one it’s pretty special to have the energy to do all this. Or is it just because it’s a summary of 20+ years? Somehow you feel like someone who’s socially awkward would not just go on a 4 hours super deep conversati

Ah I miss the days when my own music felt like something valuable (now it feels like a mess). When I’d turn on music via the computer (using xmms or Amarok hooked up to the amplifier. I feel a bit like Sonos and iOS/Android and Spotify

Roads, bridges, tunnels all need to be maintained, restored. And there is always the environmental damage that STILL has no price on it. Our Railroads are powered by "green" energy (a combination of Wind and Solar) and there is fa

Yeah that's in off-hours, where you get 40% off. So that means it's much more expensive when you need to get to the office during office hours. And your office is not next to the station. Certainly there are times when it is worth

I do use pebble for (something like) that. I find that setting it up so they certain people can get to my wrist makes me check my phone less. So I get sucked in less.

Our Dutch one is too (privatized in 1995, it's one of our biggest employers as well), we have a nice railway system but the car is generally cheaper, even when using it alone. It's always about how much money the railway system is

Back in the day there were pipetting robots and 384 well plates. Probably some smart grouping techniques to hone in on a mutation in a binary search like fashion. But nowadays we have things like single cell sequencing, which allows you to

Fun story. I worked at a large food tech company. For products like Yoghurt you’d like Bactria that make the yogurt very quickly at high temp. But grow as slowly as possible at low temp (stays fresh longer). They’d mutate the s out of these

I'm convinced they won't, they are just slow to react.

Filesystem as data backend? Does it do caldav? Carddav? Photo sync? A kanban board? So many questions… I am intrigued… for sure Nextcloud is too slow at times and too often in maintenance mode after an update (but I’m still on the single co

I got my first smartphone at 23 (an HTC touch) and have an unhealthy relationship with my phone ;) You’re lucky. Some kids do prefer the real world.

I switched from Bitwarden to Proton pass (because we got Proton family) and I find to be equally good. Ineven find sharing credentials a bit easier as it does not require organizations, you can just share with individuals. Proton also has a

Idk, it’s more subtle. I bet you couldn’t use Linux anymore because probably some horrible devs contributed to it. What irks me most is the the second order shaming of parties likes Framework and Proton.

So… You did look back then didn’t look forward anymore… sorry couldn’t resist.

It’s the new reality. CEO of proton says something nice about Trump? Facist! Framework is interested in DHH’s work? Cancelled! And there are countless of these example (ie in the Nix community). As if nothing good they did matters anymore.
