    Dropbox does too! Unfortunately, those are the only sites supporting U2F I know of at the moment.

    I'm not the author, but enabling NoSelfIntersect totally ruined the frame rate for me. I was barely able to open the controls to disable it again. It's possible it's not on by defa…

    The bar graphs were not designed to compare total amount of lines for each gender/age-range combination. Rather, they're meant to indicate how the percentage of lines for each gend…

    And heartbleed is also than example of open source not being totally secure. It was a bug that persisted for years before it was found - and OpenSSL is open source. It's just as fo…

    They deduct points as it's still open source. And they are more applauding the fact that WhatsApp - probably the most widely used messaging app currently - has adopted strong end t…

    Official website: https://sandbox.mit.edu/ Apparently Sam Altman is holding a talk/Q&A there on the 13th. It's an intriguing concept - I'm not aware of any similar programs at othe…

    How about: "Maybe Microsoft should consider open sourcing the components of their system which track users. It's possible that this would help rebuild the trust that was eroded wit…

    I've been really happy with Dropbox Paper (invite only right now, http://paper.dropbox.com , an article overviewing it: http://www.techinsider.io/hands-on-with-dropbox-paper-2015-1…

    They were not "forced" by court order or any other legal means, but they were "forced" because I can imagine going to court over the entire ordeal would have been incredibly draini…

    That's a very slippery slope. Kik is an app and company that has been going on for years. It existed long before Azer's "kik" and, even if Azer does not know what it is, most peopl…

    And it's entirely possible (maybe even likely) that npm would have won in a court of law. But the legal expenses were probably simply not an option, and I don't blame them for that…

    Would I feel like I had been treated justly? Of course not. I would be angry. But in a situation like that, I can't blame npm because their hand was forced and I can't blame Kik fo…

    This is ludicrous. > "hahah, you’re actually being a dick. so, fuck you. don’t e-mail me back." This is the developer the community gathered behind? Not only is that incredibly unp…

    I'd imagine that, if NPM were contacted by a lawyer as the developer states, that there was the threat of legal action. So, then, you are correct and technically I should title the…

    Thanks! I'll definitely look into react-router / bootstrap. And that's the same reason I built this - I have a lot of electron apps I want to build, but no quick starting point. I'…

    Then name them. I realize this sounds caustic, but to say "Well, you're wrong" without giving adequate reasoning beyond "I've been around a while, so I know better" contributes not…

    I highlighted this in a Show HN a few weeks back but I figured I'd link it here: "dit" is a dotfile tool that isn't concerned with being fancy. It uses git hooks so all that's requ…
