Dropbox CEO 'Takes Full Accountability' as He Fires 500 People
  • "Full accountability", as in, they're still fired, he still have his big paycheck and assorted bonuses, and the more general "fuck them" attitude will remain.

    That's not accountability, that's shitting on people and smiling about it.

  • Bitwarden Makes Change To Address Recent Open-Source Concerns
  • I use this setup for my personal passwords, using nextcloud as the sync solution. A semi-fix for that was using Keepass2Android (on Android obviously). It integrates with nextcloud directly, keep a local DB of passwords, and would only load the remote one (and merge) on unlock and updates, not keeping it "constantly" sync on every remote change. It works well… most of the time… with only two devices that almost always have connection to the server… and for only one user.

    It's overly clunky though. It's the big advantage of "service based" password manager against "single file based" ones. They handle sync. We have plans to move to bitwarden at my workplace, and since the client supports multiple accounts on multiple servers, I'll probably move to that for personal stuff too. The convenience is just there, without downside.

  • Except for the part that it's not a question of trust (being open source), there's no third-party architecture to trust (it can and should be self-hosted), the data on the server are also encrypted client-side before leaving your device, sure.

    Oh, and you also get proper sync, no risk of desync if two devices gets a change while offline without having to go check your in-house sync solution, easy share between user (still with no trust needed in the server), all working perfectly with good user UI integration for almost every systems.

    Yeah, I wonder why people bother using that, instead of deploying clunky, single-user solution.

  • I understand what you mean. There is an important point here though; we're not talking about friends, coworkers, that random barista, or anyone else finding out about you after the fact. We're talking about parents and their kid.

    And I'm not saying it is easy either. But it is the role of parents to look after their kid when they're young. Nobody's saying that's easy, and nobody's saying that some random busybody should have seen the sign. We're talking about people that should have been the closest and the most warry about this situation.

    It certainly is possible to miss it. But if the closest, most concerned, most incentivized to care people are not enough to at least have some fleeting suspicion about their kid's behavior, then we may as well pull the collective plug of our specie outta the wall.

  • If someone is depressed enough to kill themselves, no amount of “more parenting” could’ve stopped that.

    Parents are supposed to care for their child and look out for them. If you kid gets depressed enough to kill himself and you're none the wiser at any point, I'd say more parenting is very much needed. We're not talking about someone that cut contact with everyone and was living on their own, slowly spiralling there. We're talking about a 14yo kid.

  • Subscription models. Some sites even combine some free articles with it, so that anyone can look into their works, but not necessarily everything. If it fits you, you get a subscription. Sort of the same way people would pay for their daily newspaper.

    It can be argued that "news" should be free, and there are some news site that are basically picking up AP/AFP/whatever and repost these, but actual journalism do requires work.

  • Harris to release medical records as campaign looks to pressure Trump to do the same
  • "As the healthiest person… as the healthiest American… there is no one healthier than me… as the healthiest, there is no need to release these… my medical records are stellar… so perfect. I'm great. These records are so great, there you have it. I'm perfectly… yes… perfectly healthy." - Trump

    Well, I tried. I feel that it lacks some attacks to their opponent, but I can't dumb myself down enough to do more than that.

  • Former Google CEO says climate goals are not meetable, so we might as well drop climate conservation — unshackle AI companies so AI can solve global warming
  • AI will not find a magic solution. Besides, we already have quite a few directions that would help, but we're not acting on them. Pilling more "solutions" over them won't change that.

    This really sounds like the parody of rich people that think they can eat and breath safely as long as they have money, the rest of the world be damned.

  • I will not say that you're not doing the right thing, but I'd suggest reading the financial statements of Mozilla. If you think the way they're steering Firefox is an issue, you may find a few surprises in there.

  • Suddenly firefox on ios shows ads on homescreen
  • Yes, you can. The same way you can disable a lot of annoying things in other programs. Still an annoyance at the expense of users, and a gateway to more passive users to click on something unexpected.
