Personal experience with Jolla: I bought their first mobile (still have it somewhere) that would be a "Linux Phone that run android app". Wanted to support it and was ready to expect some bugs but it did not work all. No support at all, most of android app did not work. The OS was not finished that it was already obsolete. And now there are doing it again like the first one never existed. I have zero trust in this company

Curious choice of backend python. Indeed Flask is a famous python framework but it seems it has been completely overshadowed by FastAPI. I would suggest "HyperFastAPI"

Important indeed. This is not "free as in freedom"

Looks really nice. Too bad you take businesses into hostage regarding the SSO. This is even one one the main argument in your Enterprise plan. I know this is common behavior but I find it sad to have such an important security feature proposed only on latest plan.

Hope this trend will end soon.

I don't believe in 10x programmer and know this term only from HN. I live in France and after 10years programming, I never heard a collegue said "I am a 10x programmer". However, I always make sure any git project can be worked on with any IDE. I use vim, some use PyCharm and most of them use VScode and it works fine.

However, I can tell you my main pain point in using VS code vs vim: project switching. Many times I have to go quickly to another project and close it. When I code in vim this this :

ctrl+Z (go back to term) workon project_2 vim ctrl+P (select the file I need to see or quickly edit or show to a colleage to explain) :q! (let's say I didn't edit anything) fg (Go back to my main task)

Did not know how to be that fast to open/close project with a _real_ IDE.

To oppose this, there is one feature I envy of vs code: code in docker through ssh seamlessly. Unfortunately this is not even available in vscodium.

Many people complain about the time you need to have a proper vim. In computer security, I learnt to make my own tools, to develop my own script that match what I want to do/scan.

For vim, this is exactly the same. I started with Python so my vim became the best Python IDE (for me) and that's all. What I said to junior dev is "Here my vim conf, you are allowed to copy/paste only what you understand". Then I did some Typescript and added a configuration that works for me. Thus, some pain point came from my old config in python, I found new good plugins and added them. And so on with rust and ruby. Everything is commited so now, on a new machine, it takes me the time to copy/paste my config and write :PlugInstall.

Everytime I test vscode, it does not do what I want and when I look into it, I can't configure it correctly. Vim has always my back.

Breaking changes are very common with Python Azure SDK. First version where not pep8 compliant so when they decided to respect it, everything broke. Azure servicebus in python went from version 0.50.3 to 7.0.0 with almost everything renamed, class moved and so on.

Really like Mypy. I have coded many python micro service with different framework but my minimum core set is:

  - Black (formatting)
  - Isort (import order)
  - MyPy (typing)
  - Pylint (linting)
Edit: s/unit test/linting

One use case it is you can share different number of key shard to individuals. Thus, they have more "power" based on how much you trust them.

If this is your will, you can give 3 shards to your sister (that you trust absolutely) and requires 4 shards to decrypt it. Your "semi-trusted" friends needs to be 4 to decrypt it, but your sister only needs to know one of your friend to access.

Relay looks a lot like what Tanker (https://tanker.io/) does. Even the method seems quite similar. Why should I choose Evervault over Tanker ?

It is the opposite. As state on the website you liked: > The name "1€" is an homage to the $1 recognizer.

I really like Sentry to track my bugs. However, it lacks some workflow, so I'd say I expect a Sentry with a light Jira (a Trello ?) to follow fixings

His script start from the bottom of 06 XX XX XX XX (french mobile number) and increases. This is not the most efficient way to have working/active numbers.

As he said, starting with 06 numbers are saturated by now and we opened 07 XX... numbers. Thus, 07 numbers are more likely to be fresher et more used by "younger" people. While first 06 could be more used by professional and "older" people

As I said in a previous comments, older generation do not use WhatsApp very much as we had unlimited text message before getting internet on our phones (before iPhone 1). Before Covid, my parents did not use WhatsApp at all while texting daily. They use it now to video call during curfew
