Using Rust for GNOME development seems to be becoming more popular. https://gtk-rs.org/
I wonder if takedowns like this will make decentralized code tools popular, for example: https://radicle.xyz/

Did something similar happen when Epic Games bought the company?

I cannot confirm or deny that I am the developer behind this ad. Satya was staring over my shoulder while I did or did not write the code. He also made me sign an additional NDA.

I agree.

I agree with most of what you said. I think privacy is important and it is important to educate people on these issues. I just think that say a grocery store worker that just wants to get the bills paid for next month and enjoy life a little has a different set of priorities than a tech worker making > 60,000 USD. There are more people like that in the United States than tech workers.

low-tech users don't care much for their privacy in my experiences. This may be due partially due to the lack of understanding, but also due to cultural differences different from the average hn user. The time needed to teach them how to use complicated security systems just isn't worth it for them most of the time. People have different priorities. Most people just want to use their computers as a utility or for playing fun games or something.

I'm sure there's some complicated oven i could use that would be way better in the long run but I just wanna make pizza sometimes, not the best pizza in the world at the perfect temperature.

Pass the Soma.
Looking at just the Cumulative data, ~79% of people in the UK that have taken the first dose have taken the second dose. Looks like it is practical. And that number doesn't account for people that haven't had their second appointment yet.
Is it practical to ask people to wait 8 weeks? Will people be significantly less likely to show up to the second appointment after 8 weeks instead of 3 weeks?
You could also use Dangerzone [0]. It opens a document in two docker containers and converts it into a safe version. It was created by the director of infosec at The Intercept.

How does this site work? Do they just join popular torrent swarms and log the ips?
