jsalinas··on Can Elon Musk and Tesla Reinvent the Way Cars Are Made?
Maybe he was "changing production processes on the fly"... as the article mentions. Really funny how being rich and powerful can make your failures look 'revolutionary'.
jsalinas··on Do you need a VPN?
Regarding speed, I've been using ProtonVPN for around 4 months and It's much faster than other VPN providers I've used (TorGuard and PIA). It doesn't work with Netflix as Netflix blocks most VPNs.

The only problem I have with Algo is that it isn't compatible with Little Snitch :(
jsalinas··on WordPress now runs a quarter of the web

jsalinas··on Facebook vigilantes catching thieves and punishing them
Peruvian from the ugly side of Lima here. What really happens when you are robbed and try to go the police is that the cops would try to get money from you with lot of excuses: gas for the patrol unit, office supplies, even food for them... So, most of the time, it's almost a joke to ask the police to do something.

I totally disagree with this 'popular justice' movement, but I kind of understand the frustration of people who really have no one to help them.

jsalinas··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
It's sad that this reminds me to the worst CSS framework I've ever used (and was forced to use): https://github.com/EasyBoxModel/EBM

Check https://github.com/EasyBoxModel/EBM/blob/master/app/assets/c... to get the idea.

jsalinas··on Solved by Flexbox
Bootstrap is a CSS framework and the flexbox layout is a CSS module, so you can't really compare them.
jsalinas··on Half-Life 2 released for Steam on Linux
You should try HL1, most of the bugs are just visuals and don't affect gameplay. I've played the game and it never crashed.
