To be fair, I think the commentor was being sarcastic.

KeypassXC takes a slightly different approach. It uses named pipes to send the password from the application to the browser extension. Though the browser is where I find myself using it 95% of the time, they also have an "auto type&quo

I remember when I spent a couple hundred dollars buying albums on Google Music only to have the service "migrated" to YouTube music. Except now my music is only available with ads whereas before it was ad free. That's not wha

I feel quite confident based on first hand knowledge of code, system design, and the many, many privacy reviews we had to go through when building new features to ensure we didn't accidentally log or otherwise infer data we weren'

As someone who has actually worked on end to end encryption at Meta, I can tell you I am not aware of anything where the company reads your WhatsApp messages - either in transit or device. The company takes fairly serious measures to ensure

I think the word is industrialized, not civilized. India and China have been industrialized for a much shorter time.

One alternative I've used is Lifesum. It also has premium features behind a paywall but barcode scanning and simple calorie tracking is free.

Super cool. I wish this was open source so I could see how you did some things, but I understand you've decided to keep it closed. Just to satisfy my curiosity, would you mind sharing how you did parsing at a high level? Did you use s

But there are so many bookmark managers out there. I use raindrop, but there are many others. Do they not meet your needs?

Good summary. This is probably the most accurate and succinct writeup I've seen (in what is otherwise a sea of misinformation about the company). I'm also an ex Amazonian (Sr SDM).

I've studied non dualism but I still don't feel I "get it". How can consciousness (a concept) be a base layer and matter be the thing that emerges from it? As much as I've tried to understand this, I still don'

But will we actually phase it out? Have we actually found alternatives with high enough energy density to handle things like air travel?

One reason I can think of is because the bank does an appraisal and may reject the loan if the appraised price is too low. They don't want to be stuck with a house worth less than the loan. I had this happen several years ago with a ho

As I recall, even one on one chats are not e2e encrypted unless you explicitly start a "secret chat". Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Yes, but USDT claims it is backed by USD. The belief in this claim is what holds the pegged value.

When looking into KeePassXC, did you specifically look into the KeeShare[1] feature? As long as you have some common place to read/write a file, you can share a subset of your credentials. I agree this is not as easy as hosted solution

One reason I can think of is that (to the best of my knowledge) you can't deposit cash with Fidelity. I generally like online banks, but for me personally, I regularly have scenarios where I need to deposit hard cash. And so far, I

Good point. This is also the same for KeePassXC where the browser extension works by communicating with the main app process. The extension itself doesn't store the passwords. And KeePassXC is open source and does not require cloud sto

Onionshare, to the best of my knowledge, requires you to have your computer running while the recipient downloads the file. It's a web server. It also requires you to download software. In this way, it's less convenient than a hos
