The question when governments are enforcing backdoors is, how can they be sure hackers won't abuse these new backdoors too? This is going to do a lot more harm than good. It's reassuring to know that these are the sorts of people running our society.

Yes, it's pretty stupid. I don't know why anyone would subscribe to a newsletter before even knowing what it's about, they should do it once you've read the entire article.

What? That sounds really stupid. Could you provide a source?

Even if Instagram does that, they can still modify the app to take pictures properly. That's definitely not a limitation with Android. The only problem I can see with this is people modifying the picture header to become the edited photo instead of a legitimate one (either with a rooted phone or a modified request on pc). There's not really any way for Instagram to properly verify this.

That would be great. You could also recommend extensions to be installed if a website uses a certain framework. For example, the react Dev tools extension can be used to view the source of react apps in a more intuitive way compared to the rendered html file.

If they whitelisted only social media rather than blacklisting websites, I highly doubt a VPN or proxy would work unless it was provided by Google, Facebook or Tiktok.

Maybe you're thinking about electromagnetic radiation. I highly doubt the RPI would produce gamma rays, but I can assure you that it produces radio waves. I guess it depends what kind of radiation you're measuring.

MPV or IINA are good for streaming YouTube videos too.

Someone make this a browser extension!

It already would be, they have to transfer the data between hospitals somehow. The only difference is that you will have access to it, not just the doctors.

The security depends entirely on the implementation though. I'm guessing that's why your concerned about it.

Yup. Just build a nuclear reactor in your back garden and it's easy passive income!

Wow. I can't delete comments in hacker news. That's so stupid. Anyway, I was getting downvoted for a stupid opinion FYI.

Because it's cheaper and it's clearly working. I doubt someone doing this as a full time job would be as good at these monotonous tasks than 10 times as many people who are doing it for a few minutes per day.

How is this any better than a to-do list app? It seems way more complicated and it's not GitHub's intended use case.

Maybe set time limits then. Also have an alternative thing to do on your phone if you can't do anything else (like Duolingo or respond to important emails).

Yeah. Tbh, I haven't seen any news that would be significant for hackers in particular, the posts are mainly for software Devs.
