If I saw any charges, I'd still would want to protect my kid, no matter its age or sex.

I would keep the kid away from anyone who is not the same age as it, give or take 3 years.

Google already does this anytime I clear my cookies. Why would they allow someone using the service if they didn't get something back?

I wonder, if he didn't fall in love with that animal, what would be your response then?

The universe was created from nothingness, so yes.

Can't the websites share that information with facebook by proxying that information? It'd be the same workaround as for ads if you host them it's very hard for someone else to block them, especially if you use dynamically named divs, image sizes etc.

Navicat is especially useful if you need to migrate from one database software to some other.
It'd be more safe to generalize it as Balkan.
If a state actor asked me to give them my keys, I'd be really afraid if I didn't comply.

There's always the possibility your own country could request the same thing and act as a proxy.

I doubt that will be worse than Flash.
Re:Hello: A new social network founded by Orkut's creator on Thursday April 12, 2018 @03:40PM (#16824226)
So websites now no longer simply want new users, they want unique,verified users.

I understand the need for such verification when a webmaster wants to prevent easy re-registrations of trolls and/or banned members, and it's still better than Google's invite only system for when they release something big like gmail or g+, but it's a dark pattern all the way.

Great, it also has a Docker image apparently.
I'm currently job-seeking and I've seen many jobs ads asking for CI experience. I'm not fond of using SaaS solutions and would like to fiddle with CI in private (e.g. using a private gitlab repo.

What would be the steps to setup an own, private and open source CI solution for, say, a Go, PHP, or JavaScript project?

Can somebody breakdown which companies are on each side of this corporate war? Is it Microsoft + Facebook vs Google + Apple?
It's one of the most recognizable tech companies by far (in par with Microsoft and Facebook). If Google doesn't comply with EU's privacy protection laws for Europeans I don't see a reason why it or its parent company can't be fined there. In a way that compensates the EU citizens for all their private information gathered, analyzed and sold.

I would love to find someone to love, chemistry is a very hard thing.

Slice of life films tend to depress and/or stress me. I tend to avoid them because I empathize too much. Just reading the wikipedia summaries of the films you wrote about, got me anxious, especially `Only Yesterday` because I'm at the same age with the protagonist and my career and love life are lacking.

If a film has a [redacted-for-spoilers] aspect, even with all the drama, I enjoy it more. If you're like me, you'll definitely enjoy `Your Name`. I cried more than when I watched Lion King for the first time.

Re:Ask HN: What books do you keep on your desk? on Thursday April 05, 2018 @07:59AM (#16763954)
I've long ago recycled or burned most of my books as no library would take them. I only have a leather bound encyclopedia remaining in my house which I also want to get rid off. So much money poured down the drain... I don't find it enjoyable re-reading the same stuff.
Re:Reddit’s Redesign on Tuesday April 03, 2018 @08:14AM (#16743881)
Isn't it possible to "morph" the changes, little by little, so the users don't get overwhelmed by the changes? I think Facebook has done such progressive redesigns in the past.
