4G/5G is pretty good on security, compared to 2G :)

I would not call Elon Musks Twitter and other public performances ‘no advertising whatsoever’. They don’t pay for it cash to adv companies, but they got in hot waters with SEC because of it, for example.

Btw, safari has its own API to get push notifications on desktop.

20 minutes a day — unlikely. 2 hours a day for 10 years — you bet.

remember ping?

     -a      Audible.  Include a bell (ASCII 0x07) character in the output
             when any packet is received.  This option is ignored if other
             format options are present.

Third one is true and verifiable and actually useful for cooks :)

They are the one example of messaging done right on the client side.

And it maddens me that their whole team, including ops and backend is like 50 people.

At the same time, they used some pretty unconventional ways to find brilliant people. For example, for iOS and Mac and android apps, they simply held a contest for the best open source app fitting succinct and reasonable requirements. The winner got sizable prize and place on the dev team.

Then they released that app as a Telegram X and then gradually sunset the older app.

Pretty neat on multiple fronts.

Really sorry about the stress of raising a teenager!

I've contacted Google One support regarding youtube/google one family account. They've said some things and I've tried some things, nothing changed. Too big of an issue, I guess.

Is this complexity warranted? I mean could not the same goals be achieved by less formality and less complexity?

Yes, that's my question, too. I remember when Sketch was all the rage, Apple provided photoshop templates only ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Do you have patreon or something? This is a project I can wholeheartedly support with my hard earned money.

this is gold. thank you!

I’ve heard phage therapy is very individual and cannot be scaled as a reason for slow adoption.

Don’t get me wrong, I love complete e2e!

I am choosing iMessage with complete e2e every time I can, but iMessage is iOS only and telegram is many years ahead in user convenience even from it.

You might as well continue pushing for pgp for secure email.

User convenience is not optional.

Not op, but what would you give him in return? Sending some random purist on the internet my personal texts is one thing.

Sending it to the company promising secure communication, company which delivers the best convenience messaging UX in the whole fucking world without any ads...

Well, if you can’t see the difference...

1) who is the user?

2) let’s give some love to BSD, since GPL is hostile to my intention of selling modified software

Do we really need a ‘legally clear’ definition of open source and free software? Both look like a common term. Want something you could claim ownership over and exact your specific meaning — pick some proper name like ‘Apache license’ or ‘lgpl license’ — pretty unambiguous.

Did you have positive experience with google support yourself or do you work at google? Never heard of any positive customer support experience with google.

Clicked here expecting some heart touching Object Pascal reveries. Not this time.

It highly depends on the 'school of therapy', there are approaches when therapists view themselves more of a 'fellow traveler/sufferer on the road of live' and less of an authority figure. And it's highly depends on the individual client and therapist.

I'd say it's therapeutic in it's own, but most therapists try to do more.

For more info on therapeutic factors, see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4592639/ obligatory clickbait: you will be surprised!

Please please please add more supported languages! Russian!

Sadly I don’t know any serious economist who would oppose him. But yes, he was demonized by state run media in the last years and hence is a controversial figure.

You can work on that anxiety, just like you ace programming tests with enough time & effort. Therapy, especially group therapy might be really helpful.

There is a popular myth that 'there was a mighty USSR and some enemies ruined it'.

The Soviet Union collapsed because of massively broken economy. That's just basic science. They exported oil and imported grain. Russia imported GRAIN for gods sake. Then oil prices collapsed. Next? They did nothing and just ate through the resources until they were no more.

And then 'evil liberals/evil west destroying the great country' happened, when finally USSR had no money to pay for the social obligations and for massive military.

This are the undisputed facts, supported by a vast trove of internal documents from the late USSR and first years of the Russian Federations.

A monograph by Egor Gaidar [1] is an excellent source referencing tons of the original documents.

Sorry for Russian, not sure this is available in English anywhere.

I get that it's easier to think that source of our problems is some evil mastermind and conspiracy. But think of the Occam's razor — this is explained much easier by sheer incompetency and stupidity and no checks and balances to mitigate them.
