Great point. Thanks for the link!

Which usually isn't cryptographically secure. So now you need to audit the random number generator and make sure that it has no known holes, including obscure edge cases. And then …

I agree that it can be interesting and useful to discuss flaws, but potential solutions are what make the discussion worthwhile. Saying "This will never work for X, Y, and Z reason…

Since the developers have been working on the app for three years, I'm sure that they've built in safeguards. One simple fix that comes to mind is to store all data locally, except…

But one major benefit of Beartooth is that it allows for asynchronous communication, while traditional radios don't. That aspect could turn communication in remote areas from cente…

Spotify used to use a peer-to-peer architecture: https://torrentfreak.com/spotify-a-massive-p2p-network-bless... I'd be interested in knowing why they switched away from it.

I have no idea why your comment is at the bottom of the page. So many arguments in this comments section set up a straw man, claiming that the author is saying that nothing should …

I completely agree. People should make sure to look at the claims, particularly under 1 at C: "rendering, on the computing device, the tab management area such that a close button …

What is your reasoning? Getting press isn't easy, and it can greatly help a startup in terms of sales and contacts. Self promotion directly helps with that, and also opens up conne…

I see your point. I'd argue that programmers who are treated that way have bad managers, though, rather than it being a function of programming as a profession. I've never dealt wi…

That's like arguing that surgeons are performing a blue collar job when they're given a diagnosis and test results from another physician. In theory they're performing the same rep…

If you don't host any https websites on the VPS, using 443 will almost always get past port blocking.

I use Trello, and then I have it sync with Google Calendar. That way, I can handle individual tasks with the flexibility that Trello allows, but use Google Calendar when I need a b…

I meant the design, since the page created such a clear template that would be fantastic for future open source projects to modify. But if you want to release the content in the op…

I thought the same thing. The app store page shouldn't be the be-all and the end-all for discovery. Instead, it should be the last step in the marketing process. A promotional webs…

Small typo on step 2 of the signup: "We collect your card now though, in case you want us to purchase things durring the trial." (should be "during" instead of "durring")

Will the website itself be released under an open license? I could see this website format being useful for a ton of open source projects.

I have picked up a few domain names for my new startup. While the name I truly wanted was taken, I was able to get Example.co along with ExampleApp.com/.net/.org (Of course, Exampl…
