Bitwarden does have the concept of a fingerprint phrase [1] which is similar to the Signal feature you mentioned. I would be cool to see this feature incorporated into Bitwarden Send. [1] - https://bitwarden.com/help/ar

Don't have anything to add to this except to say thanks to the team for an amazing product. Been using fish shell for 5+ years now and I love it. "Finally, a command line shell for the 90s"!

I feel like this was more due to how we used computers at the time rather than AIM itself. You can still set your status on most messaging platforms, but we're now always online and people assume you'll respond later if you'r

This sounds rather dismissive. The company (and others like it) has been around for decades. Most of Fortune 500 has leaned on their advice multiple times, and their advice doesn't come cheap. So your implication is that these companie

You can. I'm American/Pakistani (dual passport), with significant family who are in India (including my spouse and grandparents who are Indian citizens). I went with my wife to Pakistan last year. I have plenty of Indian family wh

This is not the purpose of base58. The main use case for base58 is to avoid human error in similar looking characters ("l" vs I" or "0" vs "O"). As an example, this is used in Bitcoin addresses to ensure y

@geek_at: unless I'm mistaken, you can't listen if your screen is off or without ads unless you pay for a yt music subscription. I paid to purchase music on Google Music and now I am being forced to pay a monthly fee to access the

I've had the pleasure of working with Andrew. He's hands down one of the smartest people I know and his colleagues will likely attest to the same. Wishing you good health, Andrew.

I regularly use privacy.com when I have such concerns. Great service. (I am not affiliated with them in any way. Just a happy customer.)

Literally the exact same experience at the Seattle office. Horrible candidate experience.

Fully agree. I paid to purchase hundreds of songs on Google Music and now I have to migrate to Youtube Music which won't let me play those songs without ads and without keeping my phone's screen on unless I pay for a subscription.

I agree with most of this, but it seems one of the main issues is that it sends it even if autofill is off. I could easily imagine someone overlooking the default setting and inadvertently revealing their password. Also, on what basis is yo

Your argument sounds recursive. What does it mean to say the government will buy a dollar for a dollar? A dollar is only useful if it can be exchanged for things other than itself.

Can someone explain to me why MtProto is not considered proper encryption? Genuinely asking, not challenging. At least since version 2.0 it seems it's using AES encryption: https://core.telegram.org/mtproto/descrip

Like many others, this is also my favorite podcasting app. Just a couple of weeks ago, I was using this exact app to listen to the "Making Sense" podcast by Sam Harris, on the topic of covid-19. This is clearly not a government so

It's not obvious to me your comment has more truth than the one you're replying to. Either argument could be made. Why the rude animus towards the original poster?

Only complaint I have about it is it has no quick unlock feature unless you have a Mac with TouchID. It is really inconvenient to type the master password every time rather than a PIN. I realize there is a security trade off here, but I thi

Are you familiar with Bitwarden and KeePassXC? If so, I"m curious why neither of those meet your use case.
