Analytics has got nothing to do with software improvement. Analytics is crap. iOS is crap.

This time is different. It's got something to do with G$$GLE's policy to charge the Gmail users who happen to use their E-Mails under the so-called "G$$GLE Workspace". I know this for sure because I use Gmail under "G$$GLE Workspace" and today I'm greeted with a message like this "Your 14 day trial period for G$$GLE Workspace has ended. If you want to use G$$GLE Workspace , start a (paid ;) subscription." All of this happened after I've been using it for more than 12 years!

Re:Americans underestime climate policy popularity by nearly half

The climate changes daily and yearly because the sun's got daily and yearly cycles. But the sun's got 100 or so years cycles, too. So the climate changes slightly over those periods, too. Period.

You missed the whole point. The purpose of that scientific looking article was to convince you that climate change is caused by human activity, which in reality is not.

Re:Ask HN: Do You Use RSS?
on Wednesday June 29, 2022 @05:23PM (#31925882)
I've just tried this app on my Mojave MacBook and it's amazing. So pleased with it. My biggest requirement was an app as simple as an RSS reader must be open source and that it's got a macOS binary. This one fulfills both and it 's got a quite nice UI too. So far I've been using NewsFire, not knowing the alternatives.

I use RSS daily. Yes I write code. Rule of thumb: Don't reinvent the wheel. If you see what I mean.

Whether it's used commonly or not, it's one the latest versions which don't interfere with your privacy and it works with %99+ of the websites. The %1- sites which don't work, aren't essential or worth visiting, so I'm fine with it :)
Re:Translate a message 10 times into different languages and back
on Wednesday April 27, 2022 @09:17AM (#31179462)
It's one of the latest really private versions, it doesn't try to connect to tens of various websites under the shitto "your security & privacy is of paramount importance to us" and works with %99 of the websites. The %1 websites aren't essential or worth visiting anyway. So whether its code is Aramaic or Lateinic, it's good.
