aydwi··on WhiteHat Jr’s founder files $2.6M defamation suit against critic
It is biting, but very true.

You'd be surprised to experience firsthand how low values like integrity, ownership and shame rank for an overwhelming majority of people. The general rule of thumb is "get by, somehow, anyhow". Another trait is having little to no perspective on what a higher quality of life entails. It is awful, and depressing.

A handful of people who are hurt and frustrated by this, share the same sentiment as the parent comment.

I own a company which manufactures and sells showerheads. Since the "vast majority" of people are prone to a fall while taking a shower, and since it is difficult to come up with a fool-proof solution against slipping and falling (who wants to get into the nitty-gritty of that?), my company also mandatorily installs a camera alongside, so that we can monitor for accidents.

Of course, it's not perfect. Some customers have raised concerns about their privacy, but this is for the greater good. My company is very ethical in its practices, and really values each customer's privacy (pinky promise). This is the best solution for everyone.

The footage of you and your loved ones showering is completely safe with us, although you can choose not to be recorded while showering by not purchasing our products.

Oh by the way, our showerheads are sleeker and more convenient than anything else in the market.

For me, the cost of "protecting my personal information" is too high.

[OT] Hi Dylan! Just discovered your project - KISS. I respect you a lot for what you write, and you've been an inspiration at times.

Did you just decide one day that you have to write a distribution from scratch? What was the thought process, and how complicated is it actually. Also, I'd like to contribute if there's a chance.

aydwi··on Ask HN: What is your tool of choice to back up data on your GNU/Linux box?
Haven't used rsync yet but it sounds like the ultimate backup tool. What language do you script it in, bash/shell or others?
