    I recently switched from an iPhone to a Pixel with GrapheneOS and it's been great so far (a couple months now or so). It's extremely usable, with only minor hiccups if you're tryin…

    The CDC[0] links to a report[1] mentioning estimates of anywhere from 60,000 to 2.5 million defensive gun uses per year. I’m not necessarily agreeing with the previous comment, jus…

    It’s certainly healthier I’d bet.

    Triage exists for a reason, and it seems reasonable to apply that here. If you want to accept the risks of your “lifestyle choice”, you should be the one who faces the consequences…

    Wouldn't "any" include authority compelled logging?

    Thought this was interesting since they’re actually a YC company: https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/dreamworld

    Has something like this happened before in history? Where we have the tools to avoid deaths both caused by COVID and the indirect deaths caused by a lack of healthcare capacity, bu…

    There's no number of audits they'll accept. Where they're currently "auditing" there have already been multiple audits already completed. The whole thing is a joke, it's endless by…

    Probably the flavor that leads to burning black churches and attempting to overthrow US democracy?

    Well the site does seem to be some sort of PostgreSQL consultancy.

    CDC has this[0] which is fairly recent, and just as a layman it appears the vaccines are doing well against delta. 0: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7034e1.htm

    I would consider getting out of this boondoggle as soon as possible an example of competence.

    Which policies in particular do they find 1984-esque? Also I'm not sure where 99.97% is coming from, I'm getting ~98.3% from the CDC's Data Tracker page. Of course unreported cases…

    I’m considering a switch to GrapheneOS on a Pixel. I’m not sure if it’s an overreaction but I feel like I’ve lost what little trust I had remaining in Apple. It’s really unfortunat…

    Doesn’t this ease the worries from yesterday’s thread? They’ve taken steps to minimize false positives (one in a trillion accounts per year), and it’s not happening on private phot…

    How is that abusive? You pay for what you use and that’s it.

    It's sort of ironic that page loads 213kB of JavaScript from 8(!) separate scripts to show a large 0.

    It looks like DigitalOcean changed their policies, I can’t find the same messaging on the linked job post.
