Was able to find a couple of threads about Tim Ferris and crypto trading, so yeah, you're right.

My pet peeve with Medium is how they had zero profile customization options when they started off. No custom themes or design, the focus was (allegedly) on the content, not its presentation.
Last time I checked, they now let you personalize your profile and its design and include a custom username.medium.com URL for your profile. They became the very thing they said they weren't.

You are right, the YT homepage opens up in private tabs. It seems strange, I wonder might be causing this.

YouTube shows a "something's broken" error. Similar errors when trying to access Gmail. Tried on multiple browsers and connections, got the same result. The search engine works fine, as of now.

You are right. I'd bought some gems with my Google Opinion Rewards money, and the only use someone has for gems is for costumes and backgrounds - all cosmetic changes, nothing that affects the gameplay. IIRC you can use gems to change your class if you wish, but you get an Orb of Regeneration at Level 100, so you can change your class for free at that point.
Ask HN: Is the following a poosible privacy issue in the WeChat app?
One of my friends uses WeChat. He shared with me how certain phrases entered into the chat rextbox trigger a certain animation on the screen. Phrases such as "I love you", "I miss you" etc trigger it, but not normal phrases.This must mean that the app is monitoring the text being entered into the textbox. Isn't this a possible privacy issue? If yes, why isn't this being discussed yet?

Be sure to check out Wallabag (http://wallabag.org), an open source self-hosted read-it-later client, kind of like Pocket/Instapaper.
They also have another website (http://framabag.org) where you can try it out with a free account.

What I hate even more is blatantly copying from a project that already exists. Sure, the target audience is different and the focus is on people who don't know how to code.
But where's the business model? Will they be hosting the "HN clone" on their own servers? I thought Reddit already does that.
