This too confuses me. Why that name?

True. Don't want to give anyone monkey virus or anything.

It was clear from Zoom's security vulnerability last year that they value ease-of-use over security, so it seems obvious to me they wouldn't care about privacy.

This is why I use GitLab

This is literally why I hate native apps... they will always take resources away from the website which is an absolute necessity. Unless the service is app only (rare), now you have 3 separate teams working to build the same solution.

Good question

At first glance, this seems to be pretty opinionated, with a hip 30 second commercial

I used to be a fan of FF until chrome. I understand it's bad - but how about chromium?

Btw, I'm not against looking at FF again, but looking at this changelog and recent product direction, they honestly feel lost.

Features just for insta? I thought this was a web browser not an instagram browser. I guess same goes for the facebook container... what's up with building browser features for facebook? Why no reddit container, or google container, or amazon container?

First item listed under New:

Cool!

Who want's to take a wild guess at the purchase price?!

Do any other hackers wonder what the overhead is for collecting / enforcing a new tax (VAT)?

Like others have mentioned, it seemed like the benefits of UBI were to eliminate some redundancy from similar programs that require more administration. Creating a new tax seems non-trivial, but on the other hand would be easy to ratchet up down the road.

I guess I picked the wrong horse - lol

Is it just me or is it kind of ironic that another headline today involves Google's sort of fast and loose behavior related to being the dominant browser on the market?

This appears to be a dupe on the homepage: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22383910

> The people on the coasts don't get any benefit out of rural broadband initiatives

Don't they though? Those are new potential customers and users. ie. market growth?

That's like, your opinion man.

With "All of the private wealth sloshing around needs a home" there are lots of homeless who needs a home?

Wow I missed that. Does the author profit from sales of the book in addition to being paid to write it?

Is it really the governments job to fund culture? I think there are plenty of folks willing to contribute without the need for tax dollars.

Isn't moz pretty much funded by google?

What a mess

How about those of us with scruples?

Sounds like the beginning of excluding women from stem.

For dropbox, which was mainly a user focused solution to sharing files, this seems like a very unfriendly solution to ignoring files?

Can someone explain to me how this problem is related to "areas made uninhabitable by climate change"?

I mean, is this a poverty issue, a race issue, a taxation / government issue, or a climate change issue? Or many or all of the above?

It's using ansible to setup and configure a bunch of open source applications for common "cloud" apps like email, files, rss, etc.

Good point on the budget.

But even if you submitted a "fix" to the foundation, somehow I imagine that it wouldn't be adopted, for reasons.

Good point. I just have a hard time thinking of a non-elective surgery as an "industry".

Maybe we could make it elective and pump those numbers up to grow the addressable market size to all Americans

Interesting he mentions festivals banning it. There's a startup in LA who's trying to add facial recognition to ticket gates of large venues like stadiums for both security and marketing. I wonder how 50,000 people think about being facially recognized / tracked just to go see the ball game or concert?
