Oh my god, I didn't know about Nitter and hated the new experience on X/Twitter. Nitter is just perfect! Thanks

Does this also share back DHT information like a "server"? I am not downloading torrents, but I always wished to have a daemon running on my servers to help the overall DHT network…

You can be sure light bulbs no matter the type will never reach even 5% of what they could reach if research would focus on longevity instead of controlled failure.

Does it matter if they see our private messages when they hand all of the metadata (locations, usage patterns) to their own company Onavo to build extensive profiles? This for me i…

I don’t think you can be in support of free speech and at the same time mix in your personal feelings. If you support free speech, then you have to accept trump supporters, people …

Sounds interesting. Since when is TechCrunch redirecting their traffic via guce.advertising.com? My Pihole Setup Blocks this and I wont unblock it to support this kind of technique…

You seem to underestimate the level of productivity and willingness to bring the company forward, that comes from a good worker/business relationship. And a good relationship requi…

Oh yeah let’s pay those guys, that buy apartments in our cities to rent them out to tourist, making our own rents go up.

Also, 75k as a new grad is even more unlikely in a startup. This salary as a new grad might happen if you apply for a job at Microsoft in Düsseldorf or Salesforce in Munich, but it…

I think this is a very good summary. The number on your paycheck is not representative of how good your quality of life is. You can almost never compare salaries 1:1 even in differ…

403 forbidden?

It seems like Google disabled excerpts to news sites in France back in September 2019 leaving the search results only with the headlines/titles of news pages. What the French do th…

I once heard as a rule of thumb, that your base salary is quite low (somewhere in the area of an account manager). Usually you can assume to receive 10-15% from the yearly revenue …

I mean imagine you have a bar and although you needed to close it due to covid19 you are still good financially. If all of a sudden someone else decided to ask your customers for m…

This. Not my problem that you start a job paying you 3$/hour leaving expectations up to me.

This is also what I observe. Those small scale companies might also work on very specific problems. However, at least for the internet brands I think it is true, that no large plat…

What is your product then? I don’t think it hurts telling the name here, especially if someone asks for it. And also, what’s your USP against ublock?

How would you actually strip unneeded javascript anyways? Let's imagine I have a setup like the OP and want to optimize it. Is there something, that would be able to strip down all…

It‘a not like 2FA is an absolute must if you use a secure password and a password manager. I think forcing it is just wrong :(

Actually, a lot of stories on here are very unrelated to Hackernews. This one might be interesting for some and the upvotes decide.

Hey ludde, I highly appreciate your work. Especially because there are no real alternative clients at the moment for Windows. Also from knowing the first utorrent versions (not the…

Android tends to be more flexible with a few things. At least I see a lot of users using custom fonts and crazy widgets, that would never work out with the iOS sandbox concept. iOS…

Because I just discovered that 5 days ago and it gives me a warm feeling of being tracked a little bit less: - Decentraleyes

„tipped minimum“ - just wow! As someone living in Asia the American tipping culture is ridiculous and highly unfair. This countr is broken on so many levels.
