clishem··on Canary Mail – Smart Email Client for Mac and iOS with PGP Support
Please read the website a bit better! "SECURE EMAIL CLIENT FOR MAC AND IPHONE"

It's a secure e-mail client, so they can't release the source! /s

clishem··on Ethereum has gone up $30 within 30 days
He already did. Market share of cryptocurrencies.
clishem··on First introduction to LaTeX
To answer your example question:

    \usepackage[shortlabels]{enumitem}

Then you can simply use:

    \begin{enumerate}[(a)]
      \item The first item
      \item The second item
      \item The third etc 
    \end{enumerate}
Other label types are very intuitive this way.

I could have pulled this from an old document I made, no memorizing neccesary. It is also very easy to find using a search engine, as I did in this case: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/208696/using-enumera...

clishem··on EPA removes climate change information

clishem··on Uber gets sued over alleged ‘Hell’ program to track Lyft drivers
If you read this article (https://techcrunch.com/2017/04/12/hell-o-uber/) you'll find it goes much futher then just accessing Lyft's public API. They created fake customer accounts, spoofed their locations and even linked the data about drivers they got from this to their own drivers. So what's wrong with this? To quote the article, possibly: "breach of contract, unfair business practices, stealing trade secrets and violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act".
clishem··on Apple Forces Recyclers to Shred All iPhones and Macbooks
> At some point

And instead of letting the market decide when a laptop is bound for replacement, let's force people to destroy it. Of course! Makes perfect sense! Apple is doing this because newer laptops are more energy efficient! How great of Apple! Such environment, so wow!

clishem··on Apple Forces Recyclers to Shred All iPhones and Macbooks
Forcing recyclers to shred perfectly fine phone components makes sense because data is bound to be present 'etc'.

My "Hacker" "News" moment of the day.

clishem··on Golang SSH Security
> Mind, we are overdue for some nice convenient tooling to have a PGP-decrypting-and-reencrypt-to-subscribers mailing-list software tool for use for such public contact points.

We use this:

clishem··on Show HN: Edit many files as one
Only for Atom?
clishem··on Grid Garden – A game for learning CSS grid
I can hardly read the code (https://i.imgur.com/fEsIYdA.png). Author needs to take a look at http://contrastrebellion.com/.
clishem··on Show HN: React-data sheet, Excel-like spreadsheet component
If you think it's a constructive comment I'll be writing a bot that scans pages posts on HN, looks on the page for a GitHub link and complains about the license used. Doesn't matter if it's GPL, MIT, Apache, I'll just write some generic comment complaining about each license.
clishem··on Show HN: React-data sheet, Excel-like spreadsheet component
Just some basic functionality that is used when making nearly all spreadsheets: dynamically resizing tables, formating cells, setting cell types (currency, floating point, integer, boolean), conditional formatting, cell ranges, SUM, COUNT, IF, AVG, extending cell contents by dragging.

This project is a proof-of-concept. Nothing more than that.

clishem··on Open Source License Business Perception Report
Thanks for the reference, I missed that section! 300 lines, so mostly scripts that this recommendation applies to. That's not 'small projects' if you ask me.
clishem··on Open Source License Business Perception Report
That is not what the FSF writes.
clishem··on Voice Calls: Secure, Crystal-Clear, AI-Powered
Telegram is losing millions each year, paid by Pavel Durov, its founder.

"If you look at Telegram today, every month it burns over $1 million. It might seem that it’s just going nowhere, but if you want to come up with business model, you need to get to a decent size first. We have 62 million users at the moment, which is enough userbase to attract third-party developers to create products on top of your platform. You can’t do that from day one. It’s difficult."

I suspect the cost is even higher now.

clishem··on LaTeX Tooling Guide
It's free software as well! https://github.com/sharelatex/sharelatex (AGPL)
clishem··on Mathify – Simple Text Equation to LaTeX
The problem is that this is a really tiny subset of what you can write with LaTeX, even for high school students it won't be enough. I'd much rather use something like https://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php as a beginner.
clishem··on Show HN: Ctxt.io – share context of whatever you see with others in seconds
This. There's absolutely no formatting, and pictures don't get pulled if I simply copy & paste. E.g. https://ctxt.io/2/AAAAwO8FEw
clishem··on Update on HTML5 Video for Netflix
I don't get it. I can still make a recording of my screen can't I?
clishem··on My Text Editor Journey: Vim, Spacemacs, Atom and Sublime Text
I don't necessarily look down on people in prison, I just feel compassion for them, especially if they live in a prison they can just walk out of any time they wanted.
clishem··on My Text Editor Journey: Vim, Spacemacs, Atom and Sublime Text
> Sublime is an excellent editor and anyone who looks down on anyone else for their choice is not doing so because they are a Vim/Emacs user, it is because they are being an idiot.

So FOSS proponents are idiots according to you? Noted.

clishem··on C++ value category cheat-sheet [pdf]
Never give advice without telling why, because it's very likely that people will forget it if they don't understand your advice.

clishem··on Bad SSL
So does Safari on iOS.

I'd say it also fails the others, because simply pressing 'continue' makes the warning dissapear without any visual indication that the connection is insecure.

clishem··on Show HN: An HTML/CSS/JS toggle switch with happy and sad emojis
A slider that doesn't slide when swiping on touch devices also is.
clishem··on Show HN: Apple ID data leak in 30 lines of python
Interesting. I'm getting about 10 e-mail addresses per minute. I wonder how Apple managed to mess this up so badly.
