Doesn't SoundCloud count as a Berlin startup? I don't know if they are top-100 but they are pretty cool.

I tried maybe times. Every system I put into place quickly bores me to death, it kills my creativity and my brain then tries really hard to escape from it. Anyone else in that situation? The only trick that really stuck to me is to write do

That's one of the issues HTTP/2 has. Because all the requests and responses are now multiplexed over a single TCP connection, losing a single packet is going to block everything. This makes HTTP/2 actually work on unreliable

There might be better alternatives to Tor in the future but IPFS has nothing to do with anonymized communication. It also also not designed for bi-directional communication. It brings a lot of interesting things to the table but anonymity o

I don't think you can infer that all the researcher's finding would be critical bugs in one of the big companies (that pay well). It probably follows a normal distribution where most of the time it's non-critical bugs in medi

If you have the time, try Firefox Developer Edition[1]. It's one of the first edition of Firefox to have the per-tab sand-boxing enabled (called Electrolysis). Some plugins can interfere with Electrolysis. To check if it's enabled

The line of thinking was that people are used to email+password (as oppose to what was before). I think that was the right move. The system is still end-to-end encrypted, if you reset your password it will also reset the storage (by definit

Azure is the worst. I think their strategy is to throw money at addon providers (and other customers) until something sticks. The issue is that their API is so horrible that unless you use .NET and use their official client libraries it&#x2

FreeWRT was another fork of OpenWRT with the same motivation of allowing a more open governance model. I think the project died now.

One thing I found tmux surprising for is how it inherits environment variables from the parent process and then loads the profile on top. This makes the resulting environment unusual. Instead it should either leave the environment as it, or

What do you have to lose? The risk of unpaying users is on them and they are compromising that for your own benefit (simplicity of access).

Wouldn't it be possible to assume that by default, the user will be placed between both microphones? It would be less than ideal but just keeping the sound that hits both mics at the same time could be a nice default improvement.

I know people who love to organize their icons on the desktop, and lay everything out there. It helps them find things back more easily. I think it's related to the method of loci where spacial categorization is a way to recall things

Fair enough. From the home page it looked like each tile might be holding multiple apps. It's a good first implementation but hopefully in the future apps will be 3D-compatible.

That's like looking a black and white movie on a color screen. Why are they still using a 2D window manager when we could take advantage of the full 3D spacial navigation?

How do you deal with updating a vendored library, do all the reverse dependencies need to be fixed in one go? I can see how it would be an advantage to use only one library version but it could also discourage upgrading since all the cost i
