    Maybe by design, depending on what you mean. I think organized crime and state corruption (often hard to separate the two) thrives under all that chaos. Brazil is HUGE and I see ma…

    Ask HN: OpenWRT, LEDE or something else?

    What should I use for my next home router? OpenWRT, lede-project.org, something else? I want some as secure as possible, efficient and with a good UI. I haven't bought the router y…

    For personal reasons I have to stay a couple of years at my current job (back-end and some ops), I do some boring stuff but the payment is nice. I don't want my brain to slow down …

    I think I'm too dumb to learn how to use something like Haskell (properly). I have a memory/attention problem, medication helps but I almost gave up programming for it. Don't get m…

    Ask HN: Go or Python? Expanding my toolbelt

    I have no desire to learn JavaScript, and by elimination I'm between Go and Python 3 (CPython?). I'm talking about really learning the language. Not just doing some quick side proj…

    Don't be. Judging from all the apps I tested, making a good calendar must be a really hard problem (but I never built one myself). At least for my use case. I mean, how much money …

    Who needs working calendars when we have Uber.

    Comment #12286430

    I found it quite a hassle to manage a lot of events. So many e-mail exchanges, links and confusing interactions. It puts too much focus on the "confirmation" part. I couldn't find …

    No e-mail notifications for the participants, unfortunately.

    Thanks, I'll take a look. By the way, the events should be private (and might contain some confidential information).

    Ask HN: Calendar/event manager that doesn't suck?

    I want to create events with a time and date, assign participants and automatically notify them via e-mail (or SMS) a day before. I don't want them to have to download any app or c…

    I'm curious, what if something like this was distributed as malware or viral links (the new rick and roll), would it get a lot of people banned? Would it work as a global privacy t…

    Ask HN: Are Android apps a security threat?

    Next week I'm moving from Cyanogenmod 13 to stock Android M. I no longer have PrivacyGuard and I'm not going to root my phones anymore. With that in mind, how can I protect my cont…

    But if you're using accounts in "public" (like in the office) computers, aren't you trading an unlikely bruteforce for a single point of failure: your password manager, who's also …

    I always use huge passwords, do you think using an easier to remember ~10 digits password will be secure enough if I use 2FA? Or there is another attack vector that I'm not aware o…

    Oh I get it now, I misunderstood what Yubico could be used for. Thank you!

    do you lose all your data if the disk suffers from any kind of data corruption? or can you somehow still mount, unlock and retrieve the files that weren't affected?

    Ask HN: 2FA hardware?

    Right now I'm using Google Authenticator and I manage the services manually on my smartphone. I use 2FA for my e-mail accounts, VPS, games and more. But it feels really silly to ha…
