This is what I find difficult about these things, we (mostly) intuitively know that some cases it's okay to use information about users to tweak their experience, while we also know that what Facebook/Google/etc are doing is absolutely wrong. The big question is, where do we draw the (legal) line?

don't browsers send a header telling the server what language they expect? I live in Belgium where there's 3 national languages, and my preference isn't even one of them. Please us whatever language my browser tells you to (English)

Sure you can, you just have to pay for the dual (commercial) license

HN hug of death strikes again

why would you load the dropdown HTML separately, just render it along in the template with x-show="open" and have the @click="open=true"?

I think the correct analogy would be that there's a corner in the screen where advertisement is playing constantly while whatever show you're watching runs. Obviously the advertisement is going to distract you from time to time, and you won't have your full attention on the show.

I haven't worked with ASP.NET Core for a while now, but what exactly do you refer to with "ridiculously bloated code"? async-await doesn't add much extra code, save the occasional await keyword sometimes?

"We designed this service to reliably hold a huge amount of data. This setup will serve you best if it’s used to store compressed data archives or backups." "Do you offer backups with this service?

Unfortunately, no. Users have to regularly back up the data themselves. " That sounds a little contradicting

I don't disagree with what you're saying, but I feel HTTPS everywhere does not belong in that list. Secure by default doesn't sound evil to me, and Let's Encrypt made it easy enough to get free HTTPS certificates (and for non technical people, almost all hosting services I've seen offer it out of the box)

Looks like a fun game, definitely gonna check this out after work

I see that they allow you to search through your messages across all platforms. How do they achieve that, unless they're somehow storing all my messages in their backend (which I'm not really a fan of if that'd be the case)

I've been loving Elixir for the past 2 years now (off-and-on). I try to build most of my personal projects in it (as I'm still trying to get better at it) My latest project is a Discord bot library written in Elixir, seemed like a good fit as the Discord backend is written in Elixir as well

My only complaint is IDE support, though VS Code works well enough for me (and for HTML I use Webstorm, as I find the Jetbrains Elixir plugin is a little better for EEx)
