KnMn··on Ask HN: What were your most impactful podcast episodes from 2019?
I've listened to almost every episode and I really like the podcast but I admin I share this criticism. His tone seems pretty unnatural at times and the longer you listen the more it bothers you. Still worth listening for the great stories.

KnMn··on I Miss the Old Internet
I used to love StumbleUpon. I haven't thought about it for years. Thanks so much for making this. Let me know if you need an extra human to moderate submissions or whatever :)

Can I just have internet?

reddit's search has been a running joke for as long as I've been using reddit* and I worry that improving it this late in the game might unexpectedly wipe out the entire site and severely damage the surrounding internet.

*Just checked. 9 years. Gulp.

KnMn··on Edward Snowden on The Joe Rogan Experience [video]
I'm pretty sure he said he was now a professional speaker and then he meandered in monotone for 20 straight minutes, seemingly oblivious. I couldn't help but cringe a little.

Oh, man. I completely disagree. I feel like he just talks and talks about whatever he wants to talk about with almost no regard for whether his technical language is being understood or if he's dominating the discussion or anything like that. I don't think I've seen him develop a natural rapport with anyone or even make a firm, memorable point in an interview. I'll always be grateful for his leaks but over 2.5 hours he just became a soft background murmur in my room.
KnMn··on OnionShare makes it easy to publish anonymous, uncensorable websites
If that's the case they've enabled a whole lot of criminal activity to trap relatively very few criminals so far.

You can use the Tor network through bridge nodes and in fact the Tor Browser Bundle will ask you if you need to connect this way on first run.

I reckon I see pictures of homeless people with QR codes on reddit way more often than once every couple of years. It's probably crypto rather than card but it's similar.

We ought not to rely on Security through Insignificance. The data isn't just available to a current administration that doesn't care about it. It's available to all future administrations that might.
