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…

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…

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…

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 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…
