I'm surprised they didn't test Hawaii. The sky looks pretty blue from here.

I am in no way a fan of the Failing New York Times (if I may quote a prominent contemporary statesman), but am I missing something by thinking that this is overblown? They haven't printed his name, only asked if they may do so. I also don't see where they threatened him with exposure, but the article claims they have.

Except that I don't trust Telegram because they seem to ship a marketing-first, cryptography-later sort of product. IIRC initially their "E2E encryption" could be decrypted on the server. In contrast, Signal seems to put strong encryption first.

The first ~25 minutes of D-Sol Mix October 2018 aren't bad.

Disclaimer: I listen to a lot of underground EDM semi-professionally so my tolerance might be too high.

Needs options for adding dog ears and a shadow cast from the top of the page, and maybe stapler holes.

I haven't been a fan of Salt since learning they decided to roll their own encryption.

You don't have to look that far to find problems with that:

RECOVERING your password usually means retrieving the plaintext representation. Not just "resetting" it.

It feels good to win one.

I sincerely doubt the veracity of your claim.

I was under the impression that it disables it on a deeper level since disabling Camera, for instance, disallows apps (like Snapchat) from accessing the camera even if you'd previously given Snapchat camera permissions.

You can turn it off under Screen Time -> Content and Privacy Restrictions -> Allowed Apps.

I know I'm in the minority, but I'm glad this change is happening. I simply don't trust large tech companies to keep user privacy a top priority, and in my mind, this outweighs whatever UX niceties an honest company may provide.

No it isn't.

As long as you don't name it tmux.

What confuses me is how China had Chernobyl-style liquidators spraying down the insides of malls and outdoor public areas, supposedly with bleach. Contrast that with America's relatively tame "don't touch your face, do wash your hands for 20 seconds" advice.

Bash already has autocomplete and there are shells with richer feature sets.

What I would like to see is something like CLUI to be integrated with an IDE or a productivity tool like Adobe Photoshop. PyCharm/JetBrains already embraces the keyboard with double-Shift => Search Everywhere, and other similar shortcuts. Similarly, Photoshop would benefit from keyboard interaction for common tasks. We already have single-pixel nudge actions via the arrow keys, but a CLI prompt you could conjure up and type into would be a game changer for actions that require repetition and precision.

That is, rather than bringing GUI to the CLI, bring CLI to the GUI.

This is no secret to anyone who's owned a dog.

> Try to replace some Vim sessions with Emacs.

I thought you said quit Vim, not go running back into its warm embrace.

It would be remarkable if one could be allergic to a general antihistamine such as diphenhydramine. If anything I would suspect an allergy to an adjunct or inactive component.

ProtonVPN seems to be involved with Tesonet as well. I'd do some more research on them.

> if you have a good ISP already

That's a big IF. Not all of us share the luxury of being able to get internet service from companies like Sonic.net.

> Why do I need to give an app a explicit permission to access common folders in my home directory?

Because you might not be aware that the application wants to harvest all the {meta,}data in your Pictures/Documents/Downloads folders?

The era of trusting applications with wide-open privileges has long since ended.

California in a lesser known town? I know of a Firkin & Fox.

Huawei has been seen as a shady actor for over a decade now. It was during Obama's term that the House Intelligence Committee deemed Huawei a national security threat.

>I suspect this entire thread of being some sort of "manufactured controversy viral marketing" promotion for superhuman.

I thought so too.

Whatever happened to hosting your signature as an image at cutepersonalizedname[.]com and logging the IPs yourself?

It probably wouldn't take much work to use Automator.app to periodically uniquify the src URL in your sig and map Sent Item => unique hash into a sqlite database, later asynchronously updating it with IPs seen from an nginx server hosting your image. Presto, you're a "superhuman".

That the author considers the command line an archaic mode of human-computer interaction makes it difficult for me to take his commentary on Google Duplex, let alone AI and HCI design, seriously.

Secondly, I have a hard time thinking design is anywhere close to obsolete. Google Duplex sounds like an adapter that will make reservations for you upon voice command. This will not obsolesce anything except a few forms on most websites. Design encompasses _much_ more than how a form looks or functions.

My favorite part about Azure is that Microsoft shops are totally fine with spinning up a Debian install simply because the image is available.

As someone seriously considering a Tesla Model 3, this would turn me off from the car entirely. From a consumer perspective, this would make the car seem more like a toy than the silent, efficient machine I expect to buy. In fact, its silence is a selling point to me.
