Love your product!

We hoped China would grow into a Korea or Japan, instead we got ourselves a Russia.

I believe this is a Google doc preview. On my iPad it had terrible scrolling performance, and the shortcut to scroll to the top of the page (tap the top edge of the screen) doesn't work :(

Not OP but I'm interested. How should I DM you? (couldn't find one on your HN profile)

On Safari at least, you can configure it to ask whether you want to run an extension on each domain.

If your threat model involves people hijacking your TV to spy on you, and one of these attackers managed to enter your home, you are already toast no matter what.

Wouldn't the sub itself also reflect the ping and give itself away?

I'm curious why this reply got downvoted so much. Can someone explain if the content is correct or not and why?

The "50% faster" stat is talking about latency, which is not really what subsea cables are about (massive bandwidth).

The more important figure is the attenuation at frequency bands used in telecommunication (C-band and L-band). According to the article, hollow core fibers are still much worse than solid core fibers (0.28 dB/km vs 0.14 dB/km).

In every Marvel movie I watched the Helicarrier was shot down before it could do anything useful. I imagine a real life version would suffer the same fate.

Yeah. When I started cooking I read a bunch of articles on theory of cooking, what utensils to use etc, but in the end I realized they are all counterproductive. The first few attempts at cooking are bound to fail, and spending hours and hours on preparation and decision paralysis makes the failures much more disheartening. It's much better to stick to a few simple recipes and just do what they say without questioning why. The analysis / innovation can come later.

Benefitting from structural privileges is very different from being a racist though.

Same here. The way the thing wobbles in the video doesn't inspire confidence. Although even if the monitor falls off I don't think it will hurt too badly.

I don't know if he is really advocating it, but I absolutely support the notion that programmers should learn to bullshit better.
