Edit: had to reset my password via the reset link in the welcome email.

But the Android app is already available. Although I can't log in... Is this because the server is overwhelmed or are Android users indeed blocked? Why would they release the app then?

Once a detector is good, you can train a model to adjust its outputs to cause false negatives from the detector. Then the cycle repeats. It's a cat and mouse game basically.

The only proper way I see is a system that is based ob cryptographic signatures. This ia easier said than done ofc.

Not sure of you're trolling or not...

Speaks to the fact that we apparently need better and new alternatives or make current tools easier to use.

Certain aspects of discord seem to resonate with people (unfortunately...).

Man pages are great as mentioned, but maybe not as accessible to some people. Are there tools to generate more convenient resources (e.g. wikis) from that? Similar to how generating technical documentations from (structured) code comments.

I think this is more a case of the triangle inequality in metric spaces, as you don't have to calculate any particular edge to see the shortcut, as well as that it applies to any even non-rectangular triangle.

It was so crowded actually, that most people didn't even realize the protest was canceled.

Also the cell network (both internet and SMS/calls) was completely down, so meeting up or getting information was nearly impossible

This shouldn't be "offered" IMHO, this should be mandatory. Yes, people are very ignorant about cyber security (I've studied in this field, trust me, I know). But the answer isn't to put the responsibility on the user! It is to design products and services which are secure by design.

If someone is actually able to crack accounts via brute-forcing common passwords, you did not design a secure service/product.

[Edit: spelling]

I think he was being sarcastic, playing with words. Meaning, that you trade in time, runtime and memory and get nothing in return :D so a pretty bad trade haha.

Of course it's worse, I mean, that was the point of this blogpost, wasn't it? :p It's just a (long) joke.

Someone should make a post about why blocking Threads is good and why it's not to be confused with gate keeping. If not properly communicated, this could look very badly for the uninitiated and they're not to blame.

Some people of course have an educated opinion against blocking, but many presumably don't know the reasons behind it.

Are those actual conservatives or ones which would be called extreme right-wingers or fascists in non-american politics?

Yeah just fucking sad. This guy changed the way I think about software, releasing code I write, contributing etc. Would be so sad to see him go.

I just wanna add that one reason this monopoly is dangerous is that Google (could and nowadays) does use it to dictate "web standards". So e.g. they don't come anymore from organizations that develop standards but Google just forces their own standards by sheer power of market dominance.
