    I'm thankful for having had people in my life that have given me opportunity when I frankly didn't deserve the opportunity. I'm very conscious to make sure that I pass that kindnes…

    This is absolutely, unquestionably, spot on. It's a societal level change that's required to unpick what we have right now. It's incredibly complicated and there's issues everywher…

    Open question; What's the long game on securing the way credit cards work? Who's working on something interesting that could thwart the whole 'name+number+ccv' leak thing that's be…

    I don't know why you're being downvoted. You've got a point. There's no perfection in the App Store when it comes to review, but it's an ecosystem that is built around trying to cr…

    Again I feel like I'm reaching out to be educated here.. but if Safari is attempting to validate URLs for safe browsing using the Google API (which it states it will do, quite open…

    This, if accurate, is quite reflective of all online forums of discourse unfortunately. The game is rigged.

    Here's a broad and perhaps a bit naive question on this; Reddit, Imgur, and any other site that uploads significant amounts of images from significant amount of users.. do they att…

    To (most) people commenting and reading this, the question 'why would you pay that much money for a car' is just about context. To much of non-first world countries, buying an iPho…

    Correct or incorrect, good answer. Appreciate you taking time writing it!

    I have to say, as someone who's been somewhat critical of Facebook's dealings for the past years, I read the entire thing and I can't pick up on anything that doesn't seem like a r…

    How is the FireFox experience on OSX these days compared to Safari? This is 100% a nail in the Chrome coffin for me.

    I'm in the same boat, friend. Expelling Google from my life. Apple Maps works for me. I appreciate that's not the case for everyone, but it's come a LONG way. I sincerely use Apple…

    I'm surprised at the lack of support (hacker news) for Safari. It's a fantastic browser, made by people who have a track record of not being evil with data. I know that might seem …

    This whole story is so familiar, yet so devastating. Great specific product that solves one, or a few, problems very well, maintained by a passionate group. Into 'Ok' broad product…

    While you're not incorrect, there's a whole slew of the 'on the fence' produce that DOES get sent to supermarkets, and then don't get sold. There's been a few documentaries about i…

    This reminds me heavily on the 'perfect food' issue primarily in western countries. Every apple that's not pretty, every cucumber that's not straight and so on. All just goes from …

    Ask HN: Who does enterprise 'IT' really well? And how?

    As title suggests, the traditional IT tasks like computer requisitions, mirroring, hardware, set up, Helpdesk. I'd love to know who does it swimmingly and why.

    Honestly, this read so much like desperate marketing. You're making baseless claims. "Senior people rarely use Slack channels". Care to back that up with some facts please? It take…

    The Magic Mouse 2 charging situation is entirely by design. I'm totally serious. Apple stated they don't want people to leave the mouse plugged in forever, hence having an unnecess…

    This is a really good summary of how it tends to play out in the real world. In particular it is the readiness aspect. When time has come to actually think like a business, and be …

    How useful is this attitude really? I understand the underlying aspiration of creating a 'known' ecosystem, but passive-aggressive callouts like this doesn't do anyone any good. Si…

    I don't know that this is true at all. Yes, complexity has shifted, yes today's market is different. This does not really change the fact that a focused, driven leader can impart a…
