The chances of dying in an accident in a vintage car far exceed the chance of being hacked. Choosing to drive that car is fine, but definitely not “for safety”

I don’t see my red beard on that. Please address.

You got yourself into this mess. The good part about emojis is that they were a genderless raceless face. Then people wanted an emoji with a mustache and now good luck introducing …

What’s your point? Technologies come and go. People built Ruby apps that did their job and now good luck finding maintainers for them. It’s just how our market works. We’re lucky i…

Yeah, ok, maybe you’re glossing over the immense difference that there is between what could be done on a mainframe vs what a Lambda allows, including all complementary services li…

So the answer is “yes, it has to download the index first”? None of these comments answer my question.

Dogecoin, indirectly, without interest

I can't figure out exactly how it knows which chunk to download. Does it always download the whole index first? Or does it include it in the built JS file itself?

What do you mean by “absolutely no border control”? As far as I know quarantine is required to enter Japan.

It's not that those commits are in any way useful, it's that this "fix the error" commit might be 3 commits after the commit it belongs to. If there are no conflicts, `!fixup` will…

I just asked to use Spotify as soon as I updated and now it doesn’t ask anymore. I don’t remember the exact query, but I know it exists.

I’ll add. Fresh Big Sur install on the fastest MacBook 16” in store now: After changing the selected DOM element it takes several seconds to show its CSS on the right sidebar. It f…

To be fair the pronunciation of GLI in Italian is rather unique, so I’ll take Googly-Elmo!

It sucks because transactional emails still show up next to important emails. What’s a client that separates this without me manually doing so (via filter or whatever)? Gmail is go…

I think it generally depends on the market and on the route. I got some cheap flights in South East Asia in the week I flew, with prices being lower than average. This led to me po…

Sigh downvotes on HN. This is correct. Google Flight is amazing at tracking flight prices over time and lets you see dips in the past on a readable chart. Something that they could…

I routinely check several times before making a booking. I kept Hipmunk in my apps and bookmarks for years and never turned out a better deal. I deleted it probably only a few mont…

Gotta love the “alligator energy” that kept approximately 10 lines of CSS from being added in the months since that comment. This isn’t rocket science

1. Mark them all as spam. I never accept newsletters so I will consider every newsletter email as spam. They don't last much in my inbox. 2. Try inbox zero and just archive emails …

It’s easier for them to just lock you out than give you any kind of limited access. But if you can’t login, you can’t request your data either.

I just can’t wait for my personal Google accounts as well as several others business accounts I access regularly to suddenly be blocked all at once.

If I remember correctly GitHub also locked an entire organization’s repos because someone accessed GitHub from a red-flagged country probably 2 years ago. I can’t wait for regulati…

Something very similar happened when I tried to buy a MacBook on Amazon.com with an European credit card. It just would not work, probably due to my **ty bank rejecting the payment…

There was a Reddit thread just yesterday asking if the bullying stops once you become an adult. Evidently not. And sadly there’s no teacher to refer to, unless you can afford to sh…
