oh I didn't mean from the technical aspect. I meant socially, how it works. What kind of things your friends post there, how often you go check what's up with them, with type of discussions you have there etc'.

Can you share more on how you use it?

How would you use Firefox Containers in Private Mode? Private Mode is essentially a container that destroys itself when you close it.

I'm not sure . But since the average time for a webpage to load is about 3 seconds[0], I would need to press F5 17,280 times to be refreshing for a whole day. I don't think I have, and even I did, quite a few of these had nothing

Yeah, maybe. But I'm also not counting the times I worked on a hot reload enabled project and I wasn't sure if it actually reloaded or maybe there was an error somewhere that made the whole thing stop working, and so I just manual

How is the productivity benefits from not having to press F5 after I'm updating the code is worth a few days of setting up Webpack? If I sum the time it took me to refresh pages since I started using the internet it doesn't get

This is how the end of e-mail as we know it looks like. Self destructing messages, expired attachments, disabled forwarding. Heck, they took the mail out of the e-mail.

Yes, it's pretty much the OS except for the kernel.

Don't trust it as a security measure though - it's very easy to read the hash data in JS and then submit it to the server.

Well, if Telegram had end-to-end encryption enabled by default, this wouldn't even be technically possible.

I don't see how this is relevant in any way. I dislike these messenger ups too and finding them utterly annoying, but it's not an article about usability, UX or user engagement. It's about how men see and treat women online w

Setting up your own email server and sending thousands of emails a day is unfortunately almost a sure way to get into everyone's spam folder.

If by "perfectly fine" you mean highly likely to get into your recipient's spam folder - you're probably right. Having tried to self host my own mail server I can tell you it's never an easy task to actually get you

I don't really understand this attitude. Mozilla doesn't need to be everything I ever wanted from a browser in order to get my support. It only needs to be better than Google. Are all these people sticking with Chrome because Mozi

Reminds of "The Congress" by Ari Folman. "Robin Wright is an aging actress with a reputation for being fickle and unreliable, so much so that nobody is willing to offer her roles. [...] Robin agrees to sell the film rights to

My dad just looked at the last three orders he had on AliExpress, all from more than a month ago. They appear now on the website as if they have 30%-50% discount, but the end price is exactly the same, for all of them. I'm not sure how

I wish Python had more templating engines like Jade (now Pug), Slim & HAML. I can't go back to writing HTML anymore. I know about PyJade but it's (and all it's forks) seems always highly unmaintained.

This looks so slick it makes me wish I was interested in the NBA just so I can use it! It's great to see new and modern CLI tools being developed, I just hope the fact that it's node-based doesn't mean it's heavy as a re

I think the concept of piping is actually more similar to function(function()) than .method().method(), because you're not limited to the scope of your initial object's methods. And the truth is that functionB(functionA()) reads m

I just love the fact I can now charge my laptop and my phone using the same charger - and both charge super fast. I travel often and going with one charger is a life saver. Being able to charge my laptop from my old power bank to get two

Israel is a tiny country. You can spend a week on the top of some mountain not seeing any human being, and then drive 30mins and be with your friends. I enjoy being able to choose when to be completely alone and when to be surrounded with f

I guess it really depends where. I believe here, where WhatsApp is pretty much the _only_ method of communication, people most definitely check it every few minutes, and especially before they go to bed.

I have to disagree with the EFF on this one. "Sometimes standing on the wrong side of history in defense of a cause you think is right is still just standing on the wrong side of history." https://mobile.nytimes.com&#x2

Ah, agreed. I was confused by the use of the word right in "has no right to an domain name", but English isn't my first language. I agree that a private company does not have to host any neo-nazi materials (or anything real

That's a false analogy. You can't compare the freedom rights of the oppressed to these of the oppressor. The context in which rights are granted or taken plays a big role here. If it wouldn't, someone on HN would long ago cod

I'm confused. Are you saying no site should have a domain name?

This just made me add the 'http2' directive to my Nginx configs, and it seems that I'm getting a 15% decrease of loading time for my websites. Should have done this long ago...
