Thanks for details. What do you mean, would you elaborate please?

Seems this line is in Polygon contract: https://github.com/IronFinance/iron-polygon-contracts/blob/m...
tanzann··on Apple's privacy labels show WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger hunger for user data
Phone number can tell more than enough (as phone is used as a user id in Signal).
tanzann··on US indictments of piracy group members throw top-tier piracy world into chaos
Isn't that caused mainly by lobbying and so? Some context. Generally speaking money in practice means power just because it allows lobbying and hiring good lawyers. And power basically is ability to have someone else solving one's problems.
tanzann··on Grub2 security update renders system unbootable
What can you recommend as a balanced linux distro between the constant updates of arch on one hand and mostly very outdated package versions of debian/centos on the other?

Do you help with visa/relocation to Singapore?
tanzann··on Slack will never replace email
I used recently and it's impossible to use with keyboard only, you can try yourself.

During duty shifts I was helping our support. The incoming flow of requests had peaks of ~3-4 situations per minute, all as messages in Slack channel, needed to be responded in newly created thread each. I've come up with a flow, but I cannot avoid mouse at all.

Slack just does not have enough key bindings to be used without mouse! Slack was a bottleneck for me. If you are not willing to invest into UX that's fine to have gateways for people to use whatever client UI they need. But you just cannot wear to hats by both removing gateways and avoiding investing into your client UX. Result is plainly awful.

Nothing personal, I am actually hate using Slack, sad to say that. I will avoid using Slack in current state at all cost whenever I can.

Good luck to you! Hope you will make your product better!
