Yeah, something that bothers me is that there is such a tradeoff between affordability and walkabiliy. Most of the walkable cities/towns I would imagine being able to afford living…

Not OP, but someone I met who worked for Jane Street said that he was pretty sure that Oxide sold to them and was their primary customer.

I also think they work with government customers. I saw an open job position on their website requiring TS/SCI security clearance and full scope polygraph.

Well, I made this account far before WaT ever existed, so....

As a teenager that spent some time somewhat around Hack Club things, I felt that being a part of Hack Club pressured me to live live faster than I was ready to (like 16 year olds d…

Did this not happen before the current administration?

> He doesn't seem to have in-depth knowledge of how software and drivers work I don't really think the point of his videos is to go into that level of detail. I think I'm someone w…

I read the entire article, and it seemed that the article supported the headline well. Am I missing something?

Yeah, I would agree. To be honest, I used Beeper for a while, and I had no issues with it, despite at least the client being similar to Element.

I used Cinny at some point, but the issue for me was the mobile client. I liked Cinny, but wasn't a huge fan of a web-based client. I think I tried Fractal and whatever KDE was wor…

Not the original commenter, but Matrix is awful. I used it on and off, and self-hosted it too. It's slow, bloated (I'm pretty sure I tried other homeservers). The app UI/UX is not …

Isn't fingerprinting used across many different websites? Then the analogy would be a number of stores colluding to recognize the same person across all stores? (I have no idea, I …

That seems like a great setup, and maybe something I'll think about after grad school (or maybe look into being a professor at LACs or less research oriented schools)! I'm already …

I'm not entirely sure how those companies are related to "AI-monied" after clicking on their websites.

> AI monied interests that fund the FSF Can you elaborate on who these interests are precisely?

Some of this is sort of a tangent, but: When I was a student (and a student TA), what I heard or saw was that students were in CS for money, or their parents forced them to study i…

Yeah, I've been. They were pretty much what I was referring to in the comment.

I'd be curious what metropolitan area you live in for this to be true! If you're not comfortable sharing for privacy reasons, that's all right. But it seems like this is the case i…

It's reductive to say that people who aren't "copy-pasting tex and files across 3 RDP sessions deep" are not "working everyday." While Windows fits your use case, some people do us…

Wow, I didn't expect to get a reply from you! I appreciate the transparency. Stuff like this somehow makes Oxide a desirable place to work to me!

Isn't Oxide Computer also funded by In-Q-Tel?

> They, for example, replace digits with others in scans. The replacement digits are layouted perfectly into the page, so the errors are hard to see. Is this with JBIG2? I remember…

The thing is, something like this is way outside of the budget of someone who isn't making a lot of money or has saved a lot in the first place. 438 dollars is a lot of money.
