Not again. But this time 267M more users exposed with phone numbers, names and more. Enough for telespammers to litter everyone involved with their rubbish. If this had a portion (It probably does) of…

> The Santa Hat on vscode insiders and pushing of religion is very offensive to me Well, If it is "offensive" to you, find the settings button and turn it off. To find everything that you…

The HN echo-chamber algorithm is getting tested to its limit in flagging/deading real news across the world where while it is their rules, its starting to look silly in this case for news like th…

Oh dear, well perhaps it's time to learn to cod.

> OTOH, I really do not understand why such technology is needed. Well, let's ask the majority of the W3C Members which are mostly made up of for-profit companies and most develop closed-softw…

Well it's exhausting to keep hearing the same old C/C++/Rust/Zig anecdotal testimonials of the day which might easily sway the decision for some but may bring misery for others as …

Move along now, nothing to see here. Just another unhappy passenger sitting in first class being called out by a German train service.

> Collapse OS on a Z80 CPU I think several cockroaches could have come up with a better decision to choose a CPU and OS that will survive in a post-apocalyptic world. IBM ThinkPad running GNU/…

> TypeScript can die in a fire, and if you disagree you should join it. This is probably a poor attempt at satire, but I'll bite. Actually yes, I'd rather disagree and jump in the fire to…

Apple really knows how to kill a new craze here. Keeping a harmless iPod simulator on the App Store hardly threatens the sales of iPods these days. (Even though the result of it being pulled probably …

Well, this is going to get flagged pretty quickly since this orange site will suppress all debate due to it being 'off topic' and would most certainly keep the echo-chamber quiet of having a…

> This seems like the worst possible name for a potentially nice tool. Exactly, a unanimous decision from all search engine results show that this is indeed the worst naming of a TeX-related tool I…

I'm absolutely pleased with these numbers. This gives confidence that JetBrains has products that are used by a market of paying customers who are developers from companies big and small. Not eve…

Several students tell me that it is only the full-version for free for a year, then it is subscription-based at a discount.

So now every user has to log back in again every time you upgrade your server, simply changing the signing key or when your backend gets compromised. Additionally JWEs don't support forward-secre…

Today I would still use alternatives like PASETO [0] or Branca [1] tokens which the latter is a fernet-like secure alternative to JWTs. The problem with JWTs is that they are discouraged by many crypt…

> We hear very little about the actual policies proposed and the arguments for and against them. Really? Most "mainstream media" (in the UK) these days have something called leaders/…

Personally I don't, but I know people who do and whilst meeting and chatting with them, they are very encouraging to newcomers who want to attract new contributors. Without them, most of all the …

Exit polls are sometimes inaccurate these days but even in this prediction, if the result is close to this prediction then this is a triumphant failure of everyone trying to "Stop Brexit". T…

They can do it to anyone. Putting the words “Privacy“ and “Google” in the same sentence is a permanent oxymoron in my view.

The millisecond I clicked on this article, the first sentence looks very strange: > Facebook Inc. will pay $130 million to establish an independent board charged with reviewing how the company mode…

For those using expensive/advanced connectors like Zapier, Tray.io, etc. I find that https://n8n.io serves as a far welcoming open-source alternative that is worth looking at.…

I'm sure that people here are more than aware that we should certainly do more to address climate change before we see more emerging catastrophes in the new decade. By that, the action that shoul…

> Plundervolt can't be exploited remotely, such as luring a user to a website and executing the attack via JavaScript. It may be a nasty vulnerability, but it's no Spectre/Meltdown-l…

Thats the problem. The companies that cannot justify their own valuations are very quick to take the VC route to grow at the speed of light. For many, all of a sudden their balance sheets are riddled …

Yes, because everyone is now 'An AI company' to woo investors, yet they don't contribute to AI research. If this hype-cycle doesn't sound ridiculous, I've also heard that my l…

The Google Glass is (almost) dead. RIP in advance. Long Live the Apple/FB/Snap Inc/North AR Glasses!

This looks very cool for an alternative shell for Windows, which is what I am seeing here but in all honesty, as soon I saw the title, it was easy to get this confused with the Cairo drawing library a…

This was the moment that Sony could have made something useful out of themselves here for allowing Linux to be used on a popular games console at the time, as in improving the accessibility of install…
