Being direct is not rude, in my opinion. I don’t know why people need things so sugarcoated. Being direct, to me, is a sign of respect

It’s an edited image, but you are darn right. Proper communication is great

Ahh, that is indeed a critical detail on the implementation not quite clear right away. To be honest I don’t trust the end-to-end encryption most of these services offer. If I want perfect privacy, I’m sticking to self hosting stuff

ey there you go, you bothered to actually read. Your chats remain with your provider!

It’s not like you were expecting privacy while sending your content through other people’s platform, were you?

No, I actually read the current proposal. Maybe try that before regurgitating random stuff that matches your opinion

The proposal only does so under specific circumstances, which makes sense. Try to read more than three words before your respond

Reading it, it looks like it doesn’t require invasive oversight as long as the chat apps and app stores have sufficient detection and such.

really, that’s what such places already should have, considering how much profit they make off of our data

Sales, but it’s also cheaper not to develop something as long as no one finds out. Like how they were caught not encrypting or safeguarding iCloud data in 2018

Apple has been claiming perfect privacy over and over, and getting caught lying over and over. Now they’ve got the most leak sensitive thing they’ve ever built. I’m sure they’re honest this time around

Now that is a lie

I’m not suggesting randomness or inconsistency, I’m saying generalizing is overkill. But you’re right, “whatever works” might be taken too literal by some

You’re absolutely right that depending on your autofill is not a good general approach either. Then again, you shouldn’t be guessing at these either

I’ve worked with changing conventions in different teams. In the end people are not going to come up with some name and whether it’s myOldThing or my_old_thing won’t matter much. Usually I just follow whatever the team I’m working with prefers

I don’t like to sticking to generalized naming conventions when autofill or intellisense is a thing. Make your names clear in whatever way you think works best, and developers still using vim can set up autocomplete using an extension or something

I’ll be checking that out

There are people who spend a tonne of energy and materials needed and wanted across the planet to fund crime and trash all that material, just to fill their wallet

and then there’s people who waste tons of other people’s material and energy to selectively hurt others by participating in crime, just to fill their wallet

Actually worse than crypto miners

Some unit tests might have been lacking. But yea. I personally like to keep things simple, but a lot of tech companies seem to prefer quite the opposite sometimes

File systems have a record where the binary data for a file like a photo is stored. That’s deleted, without that you’d have to extensively scan the whole memory and hope to recognize that a chunk is an image file.

Whatever Apple is did in this update, it’s probably not good

It still works, you can edit the settings. But if you want one ez pz button for silence and still have your alarm work, I suggest airplane mode

I’ve heard about this thing in Chinese culture where people value the ability to replace their phone cheaply and easily over personalizing their thing to suit them, and hanging on to things.

Considering this phone is Chinese, I’m guessing this might be one reason why?

Ow I might try that one out
