    It’s a lot more than a random text editor.

    It’s a text editor from (at least some of) the people that made Atom at GitHub (with the explicit premise of learning from Atom/building a faster, better, Atom).

    The business plan is to sell collaboration features (e.g., remote pair programming).



  • I think you should be a bit careful… Ideally active community members with an interest and a fairly level headed post/comment history. Some people want that “power” too much 😅

    Also consider finding one or more people that have time zones different from yours.

    So far the communities I’ve moderated have all been pretty small (<1000) and there’s not much of anything in terms of reports. It would be great if some folks that moderate other large communities showed up and talked about how they’ve grown their moderation team.

    That’s not what this means at all. Security by obscurity is referencing software that itself has secret pieces that are (to the software authors) “security features” which are only secure so long as their implementation details remain secret.

    Software using a key is not security by obscurity, knowing that a key is used by the software does not result in the application being compromised.

    Software that uses one secret key for all users embedded in the binary is security by obscurity.





  • They’re not going to go shoot up their own town, and the FBI and local law enforcement aren’t going to go hunt down everybody with a stockpile of ammo that voted for Trump.

    Realistically, they’d go for wherever Trump is being held, and the respective SWAT teams (including FBI SWAT) or active duty national guard would deal with it.

    I hope it wouldn’t get to it, but that would also be valid grounds for the deployment of the insurrection act (unlike Trump when his team wanted to use it to steal the election). Those old veterans with their subpar domestic equipment would be up against fully armed active duty national guard, army, marines, seals, etc

    I am losing no sleep overnight about MAGA wackjobs “rescuing” Trump.




  • That’s a farce; it happens all the time, revenue stops increasing from growing the customer base, so the prices are raised on the existing customer base to cover costs and keep things operational. Why do you think Netflix still isn’t $8.99, and password sharing is no longer permitted?

    If you definitely know you can’t make enough money on 30% of 1,000,000 people, but you can make enough money charging 10% of 1,000,000 people a higher rate, you’re going to do that … because it’s your only option. There are diminishing returns to picking up new customers with lower prices.





  • It really didn’t… Firefox has been neck and neck performance wise the entire time with a massive arsenal of extensions (and to be fair some of those extensions did negatively impact performance enough to scare people off) and I can’t think of a major feature Firefox didn’t have first or get soon after.

    Chrome largely just became a “speed meme” though among enthusiasts and had the backing from Google to win over IT teams.
