    It should be noted that the risk for blood clots from birth control is much higher, yet seems to be within the bounds of what is acceptable. Quick google search: > Out of every 10,…

    I'm not in the legal loop, but would it be beneficial to move to a different country or region? For example, the EU comes to mind. Would also give me peace of mind regarding my dat…

    Both the article's title and its contents line up with what you're saying. I'm not seeing any clickbait here, save for perhaps the HN title.

    Just want to comment on java: Just stay away from Oracle Java and use OpenJDK, which is GPL2'd (with asterisk). If you want stability, stick to LTS versions... I have no idea why p…

    I tried to interact with Git from rust code once. The only option for any language is libgit2 or its bindings, and let me tell you, it's terrible. I was this close to just calling …
