If they would increase penalities and enforcement around failures to deliver we'd know they actually cared about a functioning market. Too many attorney's, not enough CPA's / Economists or investors in their staff.

Please don't make up stuff on HN - if you don't have something accurate to share or if it wouldn't support your point please still avoid making things up. Walmart's profit margin is generally 2-3% and is generally $10 -

I thought they were focused on convenience etc vs the E2E security model (which makes onboarding devices harder etc). Have they put out a roadmap to E2E everything? That would be somewhat major but surprising given they seem to be doing wel

And you have only one CEO - so their comp is expensive, but not hugely expensive relative to total org costs. Apple has Tim Cook. In terms of investors evaluation of his ability to generate profits - let's say apple is going to do $400

What a bogus headline. If you don't want to try to sync with others publically, don't airdrop in a place where you think someone is waiting to steal your information. Reality though - your email and phone number is probably alread

They are not braindead. ICMP used to be a bit broken and folks got sick of ping floods, sweeps, redirect attacks and tunneling hacks etc. Some pretty major places block ICMP as a result to keep their network reasoning and security analysis

Some people don't want to deal with ping floods, sweeps, ICMP tunneling issued and the whole ICMP redirect attacks?

Correct - you would need to open source your entire app (or at least a strong arguement can be made that you must do so). "The primary risk presented by AGPL is that any product or service that depends on AGPL-licensed code, or include

Many people have to pay tax on their income before they use it too. Why should the person sitting on a fat investment portfolio not have to? Can I borrow against these unrealized gains you say make no sense to tax and still spend the money,

I can speak to this - a long time coming. A HUGE amount of complexity in tax code, tax preparation, and tax audit is the characterization of earnings. Pop quiz, if you are going to be bringing in $100M, do you want to pay 40% tax or 15% tax

Um, my wife and I use the same code for all our devices - if your partner is developing this level of paranoia aren't there easier approaches to this question? Or maybe setup a separate whatsapp account to use for cheating if you are b

I know the Fedora Council has really come out against Stallman and has announced a number of steps Fedora will be taking against Stallman and FSF. This was in connection with an RMS open letter. You can read the open letter here: "Rich

I can't help but wondering how many lives WhatsApp has helped. And it is definitely NOT an SMS client. The entire reason it has become so popular is that it does not use SMS. Before WhatsApp - the govt in these countries - supposedly l

They do have uses is marketing. Vodka has a moisture harvested vodka "made with fog". It goes for 125 per bottle and is usually sold out as far as I can see. That's a $100 premium which values the "fog" water at rou

China def is stockpiling more chips I think. The Huawei situation really brought home to china how the US or others could basically try and cut them off and they are doing a lot of things to reduce that potentially impact (all out on chip m

Thank goodness the FSF basically failed. Linus - FSF is "filled with crazy bigoted people" Then the guy keeps on going on how "we" can get Linus to stop. Who is this "We" attacking linus?

That's not how this works at all. These single member LLC's are considered disregarded entities in most cases. Many nonprofits use LLC's to own property, do app development etc for liability reasons. That doesn't obviate

The Signal Foundation is a nonprofit. It would be an enormous conflict of interest if Moxie had a financial stake in MobileCoin, and then drove signal to adopt this random crap coin. These guys keep on claiming just to be technical advisors

That's not been the messaging. Note that other vaccine's that prevent infection also reduce your risk of spreading the disease (measles etc). So the fact that COVID spreads (not just in rare cases, but enough we all have to remain

This is absolute and total BS. 2% death rate? Who comes up with this total garbage? You have 100M infected in US as the estimate. A 2% death rate is 2M deaths from COVID alone. I've not seen anything like that as credible death rates -

We have been told we have to wear masks and socially distance with or without vaccine, so you can ABSOLUTELY still spread it even if fully vaccinated. Please follow the health guidelines and do not spread disinformation.

What is Spectrum ERG? Most corps do follow guidance from legal / HR etc to a degree - it's weird if that was being ignored.
