Hey, thank you for this, I'm glad someone said this. It sounds like you know a lot about this. Are there any companies known for flexible hours the way that some companies are famo…

When something like this is found, is the family just out of luck as far as the value of the item goes, or do they somehow get compensated? Obviously they didn't know it was stolen…

I feel like you work at my last company. But so many companies f * this up that it could be any company. I got fired from any last job after being one of the only engineers willing…

It seems like the other comments in here are proving her point. Hacker News, too, proves to be an insensitive place.

The client side code is open source. The server hosting aspect costs money. Open source is not the same as free.

Can you explain why it is faulty?

No because I'm also making the argument that the browser is not much less secure than the other JS platforms.

That doesn't make it any less secure, there are plenty of open source cryptography libraries and apps like Signal. Closed source doesn't equate to secure.

As others have posted, JS is much more than script tags in the browser. There's also React Native, Electron, Node, and many other less well known platforms for JS outside of the br…
