Ha, thank you! That explains it... I've had several signups via Tor to my service, none of them confirmed, every few days... I guess they were checking if they can somehow abuse th…

> Google don’t sell privacy. Of course they do. They sell users' privacy for advertising dollars. I am not defending DDG here, as they are clearly in the wrong - but let's not pret…

It doesn't work that way. Attackers don't check if you are using "Omega", they check if you are vulnerable. There is simply no difference if you are hiding framework indicators her…

This! I am quite sure that most projects, in exchange for some negligible part of Google's money, would be more than happy to offer the software under a different license. My guess…

A bit off-topic - the license [0] is interesting. IIUC, if anyone who is using this code decides to sue NVidia, the grants are revoked, and they can sue back for copyright infringe…

Off topic: this is the same Brendan Gregg of flame charts fame [0][1]. It has solved my skin quite a few times when trying to figure out performance bottlenecks in Python apps (usi…

Even electric bikes are not the solution, at least not in many parts of the world. What happens when it rains / snows? I don't know what the solution is though, maybe small electri…

It's 1216 and 2399 actually.

So I wasn't the only one... I initially read "Rust". :)

It is also at least some level of defense against malicious npm packages (doesn't eliminate threat completely, but at least less sophisticated attacks will be thwarted). CSP header…

He does still need to withdraw funds though, which might be a problem nowadays (with KYC). Or are there still anonymous ways to withdraw funds?

Yes, it looks this way to me too. Interesting that they didn't join forces.

In other words, Android is "open source" too. But I still don't have control over my phone.

> I met Goog people at my coffee shop... > I couldn't believe it was that easy You're kiding, right? :) Yes, it looks like this is one of the few ways one can make the appeals work…

I love this term, thank you! It is so fitting.

I strongly disagree. Git rebase is a very useful command, but of course you need to know what you are doing. Git becomes very weird if you try to avoid its core concepts... as far …

The complexity is not specific to FOSS. The incentive as described however is.

Wrong answer. Selling support means that the developer is incentivized to make product unnecessarily complex. Also, with recent developments it turns out that other entities might …

Interesting question! I would assume that some invoice must be generated, but it can be in electronic form (e-mail). Getting this right internationally is still a major problem as …

Off topic, but maybe you should try Firefox for Android? I have it on mobile (with uMatrix admittedly) and it hasn't crashed on me for ages...

No, but I am curious too - that would be a nice idea to kick-start a distributed social network imho.
