    Yeah, i'm thinking of getting a oneplus 6 since it's kind of the best supported by pmOS, and I can also just install some privacy friendly android rom in the meantime.

    Ask HN: Signal dropping support for my (very much working) iPhone 6: what now?

    I recall already having to use an iphone 6 instead of an iphone 4 to be able to use signal at all a few years ago. Now I got a banner telling me that support will be dropped in mid…

    I'm confused too: my intuiton/understanding would be that: * The total energy use would be lowered. * The energy use of the neighbors would be somewhat higher.

    Sorry, I didn't mean English more than British (the distinction being a bit too subtle for me to make). It's "par for the course" I guess for a national broadcaster, but: * That do…

    One thing I am slightly wary about after listening to quite a few episodes is Melvyn Braggs seems to be a bit too patriotic oftentimes. It's nothing really obvious, but you hear a …

    The faq helped, thanks! So, an example of typical use would be, say, as the internal ledger for a company like (transfer)wise, with lots of money moving around between accounts? Bu…

    It's hard to understand what tigerbeetle is about. Can anyone ELI5 it for me? As far as I can tell, it's some kind of a library/system geared at distributed transactions? But is it…

    How tied are those two books to python? If very much, are there books covering the same content with a different programming language?

    Can you expand on that last advice?

    What course was that? Any chance it's publicly accessible?

    In my opinion, having it baked it into a language you use allows a sort of internalization of the concept by practice/use. You don't just get the idea, but get a feel for it.

    Is your claim still true when air filters are installed in the chimney?

    I don't have a strong opinion on the subject, but I believe/hope it should be possible to be accessible and entertaining while still being academically "acceptable" in terms of ref…

    It's a question I share, so I'm happy to see answers popping up. As for my personal experience, I've read parts of "Philosophy before the Greeks. The Pursuit of Truth in Ancient Ba…

    As far as I understand, Ian Morris's books are not taken very seriously in the academic world. I've read the first part of /Why the West rules/ and must admit that it reads a bit l…
