More appsec people should start performing threat models, I would definitely recommend the newsletter. You can read old editions on mailchimp: https://us11.campaign-archive.com/hom…

Yeah I hate it when I have to pay more for a service as a European. It might seem silly but that's the reason I cancelled my Spotify account, I didn't want to pay a 'European' prem…

At what time do you come home/start working? I'm living next to work, but with 8 hours to work I don't have much time to do anything else.. start around 9, work until around 6pm (8…

What's the difference between you and eg. http://unblockvpn.com/ who offer easy VPN access for less than $5 a month? Or how is your product easier to use?

Yeah, I wouldn't want to be one of the VCs that's named in the article. Maybe the 'dumb vc' thinks you have what it takes to be successful as a person with the right product and th…

I think the equity grabbing thing is a bit over rated, although it feels like that if you're starting something and want to get other people on board. Get rational and communicate.…

There are very nice solutions out there already, Microsoft Lync & IBM Sametime.

I can understand that using freemind is an easy way to find functions & syntax of a new language, and as a lot of users notice it's great to make manage information or make notes b…

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck than it probably is a duck. "Poor reading skills" wouldn't cover the thing that's different in your brain if you've dyslexia. I can't fi…

I have the impression the news is catered more towards silicon valley & YC people nowadays. Earlier HN was the best place for interesting tech & startup news. Now I don't really ch…

Cool!:p I'm living next to an airport and it looks like it doesn't pickup everything (or some too late), but just a few minutes ago I heard a plane coming by & it was also on fligh…
