    Wasn't worth it for me. A lot of time chasing imaginary internet points. No one gives a shit what you or I have to say or think. Why waste time on shadow activities like that? I qu…

    "Influencer Simulator" Take photos, alter them and try to obtain as much clout as you can for sponsorships.

    I don't think the law has done much at all. I operate a business that serves as a data broker / processor under GDPR. I have had a total of 66 data requests in 4 years. I handle da…

    The last part was just for fun. I was originally going to throw in a "Start a cash business and launder your drug money through it." which is probably more useful.

    That's what they say now, they don't exactly have a good extension record themselves. I operate some popular extensions and I now maintain a v2 and v3 build (make file). I'd love t…

    Great news. Now the only required extensions are an ad blocker, tamper monkey, no script, multi-account containers, container proxy, tree style tabs and auto tab discard.

    Mm, I am a paid customer as well. I use proton mail exclusively and I like the calendar. You can add events to your calendar from an email/invite. I also share calendars with non-p…

    You do realize Firefox is going to V3 as well?

    Alternative strategy, buy a few dozen bags of uncle bens instant rice and a dozen Psilocybin spore syringes for like ~$100. Grow a few tubs full of mushrooms and sell them online a…

    1. Pick an industry you know well. 2. Look at the most popular monthly paid tools in that industry. 3. Pick a tool that seems interesting and not too difficult to duplicate. 4. Bui…

    This may be somewhat anecdotal, but I founded a product in the recruiting space and my daily active users and key metrics are all well within expectations and trending up. I would …

    What's the alternative then? From the looks of it, this individual offended in 2011 and did his time (120 days in prison). Hasn't offended since (nearly 11 years). It seems to me l…

    It's a tough position to be in. I think the CoC is fair in that you shouldn't discriminate the ex-felon. You can't refuse to work with someone because of something they have done i…

    Actions speak louder than words. Put together a strong portfolio and demonstrate what you are capable of.

    The post struck me the same way as well. In particular, how he mentioned more than once that he was ready to give it an "earnest attempt" this time. As if there were other times he…

    Well, Udacity is 90% SPA (React) and it's a content/page driven site.

    And yet, a large portion of big websites using SPAs don't seem to have functioning back buttons. If a billion dollar company can't get it to work properly I doubt anyone else can.

    I use Stripe. I require logging in to a service before the extension can be used.

    I have a number of popular browser extensions (10,000+ users). I don't see any barriers. It's quite easy to do, fun and profitable.

    Ask HN: How to avoid accidentally opening a port to the world?

    I recently discovered Solr (Jetty to be specific) binds to "::" by default, which is the ipv6 equivalent to "0.0.0.0". It essentially opened the Solr instance to the world. I lucki…

    I highly, highly recommend cgit. It's a lot safer than hosting accounts, databases, etc. It's a read only frontend for bare repositories.

    To be fair, investing half a million is nothing if it results in the improvements they want. It would be far costlier to rebuild infrastructre, train and shape a culture around ano…
