I’ll just leave this here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_foreign_electoral_inte... It’s a complex issue. It’s understandable people want democracy but it’s also understanda…

Until someone else makes phones that pass the strict requirements set by the GrapheneOS team, then yes. https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

Pick any pixel device, except pixel 10. It’s not supported and no word on when they will add support since google are no longer open sourcing the drivers for the pixel phones. Hope…

There’s also BirdNET-Go https://github.com/tphakala/birdnet-go It’s under active development and uses the same data models.

As far as I know the US one is heavily inspired by the UK one. The UK kind of pioneered doing digital services in government well with GDS, 10+ years ago. Some of the people who we…

Devise has made it easy to add auth to rails apps for many years now. More recently there is also the built in auth generator.

I'm a happy customer. I wrote a ruby client for your API and have been parsing thousands of different types of PDFs through it with great results. I tested almost everything out th…

Hi HN, I have been selling my things recently because I'm moving. It made me realise I could do a lot better with my consumption habits. This is mostly a thought experiment, but I …

It’s a fairly common thing in archaeology sadly. Sometimes when it’s unclear what something is, it’s chucked down as “for ritual purposes”.

Maybe modern web is the real problem here? The fact you need a large team of paid engineers just to keep up with whatever features big-tech is adding to their spyware browsers is p…

Some tube lines in London have been closed lately due to unavailability of staff. Not sure if it’s drivers specifically but could be a reason to consider this.

The CCP didn't do it right from the beginning. It took them almost two months to even acknowledge the virus was spreading between humans and was dangerous. All they did was try to …

The wumao and supporters of the CCP have been pushing this racism nonsense for a while now to try to divert criticism against the CCP. It’s unfortunately very common.

I’m not sure I follow. People/governments can use crypto and continue paying taxes, I don’t see the connection here.

This is a HN post where people are sharing their (mostly negative) opinions on cryptocurrencies, not the comment section on a YouTube video about knitting. Also, I have nothing to …

Sorry for not mentioning your favourite coin, please don't be offended. The Ethereum roadmap is exciting, so is the BCH one, I just wanted to list some examples to make it clear th…
