> Google wins

Define "wins". From what happening right now, it seems that google may lose much more than it earned by aligning with seo spammers

Maybe they need to start locking employee stock options for 100 years to prevent them optimizing short-term gains?

Just manually review top K websites and ban such garbage?

Sometimes dumb, bruteforce and biased solution can work way better than any automation you can come up with

Try remote development with vim over 200ms ping ssh connection

>nobody is buying drugs on matrix

That's proper level of security, when people don't even suspect someone using messenger to buy drugs

Not everyone lives in a country where government is a friend

>Trying to buy cheats should be like trying to buy chemical precursors to illicit drugs

Totally agree, both should be absolutely legal and accepted

how? you can use tor for the entire process of getting and using the number

> but that still doesn't justify

No, that really justifies anything. Programs should be pleasant for users to use, not for developers to work on them

Mail was always available through icloud.com though

Tornado, Tonnel (tornado on ton) and Monero already exist. You can already easily launder any amount of money with that services

Should've stayed with "grams" as base currency instead of renaming it to toncoin

I can't use copilot at my company due to NDA but can ask questions to chatGPT and use provided code

Are you afraid for your and your family lives after posting this comment? If not, then it's not worse

You can buy "anonymous number" on fragment without using any client and without providing any personal information and use it as much as you can

When signal becomes at least remotely as popular as telegram it will implement same protection to fight against spammers because you can't have free unrestricted registrations and don't drown in spam

Telegram currently makes it as accessible as possible: either use it freely but register using phone number and official app or pay and use anonymously as you want

>It gets things wrong enough that I have to manually check everything it does and correct it

Thing is, reading code is way faster than writing code

Why couldn't passkeys just be a user-friendly wrapper around assymetric key pairs tech people already using?

>scores better

>very offensive

Any cons?

First llm users will be willing to pay to not use

Several years ago I spent around 2 weeks on fixing antialiased font rendering in a game engine. Had to look close at the text in other apps to compare. Took me months to unsee it

Does sum of all GDP/PPP (represented as a big rectangle) even make any sense?

I thought that decentralized identity is one of the legit uses of blockchain. Why not? With that, you can potentially use same identity on different platform and don't worry about your identity being banned by your provider or just closing the whole platform (looking at you, google)

In telegram instead of using real mobile phone number you can buy pseudo-number on blockchain https://fragment.com/numbers. If you use tor and ton-wallet, that's not linked to your identity, this number will be fully anonymous

I guess they are not letting to use email because they will instantly be overrun by bots

>Telegram allows users to hide their phone numbers from strangers, but using your number as a relay could allow them to look up your Telegram account

You can disable discovery by phone number as well

>Then there is a massive issue of privacy, which allows strangers to look up your number and use it for spam and fraud.

They have info that this phone number exists and nothing else. Ok, also that the user uses telegram. Not much. This info can be reasonably used for spam with lots of numbers, not 150/month

Also I already trust sms to the centralized greedy third party usually acting against my interests called mobile phone operator. Now this also includes some random person and it suddenly becomes "privacy nightmare"

But gemini specifically says "i will refrain from providing examples involving concepts since you are under 18" and proceeds with solutions using other language mechanisms

I wonder if that's because gemini thinks C++20(standard where concepts were introduced) is 20+

I read this several years ago and was so hyped about learning korean language. Oh, characters have almost perfect phonetical mapping, I thought. How cool. Then I started really learning korean and found out that while mappings are indeed very precise, korean phonetics are very different from languages I know. Only after several months I managed to pronounce what I read properly and write what I hear

> Telegram can’t be trusted to not broadcast your pseudonym to whatever work or other contacts you might have saved on your phone.

Disable contact sync, you don't need it for telegram to work

> Another dimension of privacy is I might want to read a message without knowing the sender read it. You may or may not care about that.

Long press on chat

> Then they’ll have the history and you won’t

You have a button to "nuke" chat for both of you from server. Then they'll have no proof except their words that "I didn't make this up, I honestly exported chat". Honestly, I don't really get this point. Can you elaborate a bit? What is the problem with exporting?

> If you want to sell drugs and remain private, Telegram might be less likely to report you to the government.

And with telegram you can register anonymous "number" on blockchain via tor and don't even care about telegram reporting you to the government. Is this intended to be bad point for telegram?

> threat model suited for the average person is much more unfavorable on Telegram than on Discord

Discord have TOS that allows it to read your private chats and ban you for privately discussing things that are against their code of conduct. This makes any sentence with words "discord" and "private" a complete joke. It's non-private messenger that never even pretended to be private. Maybe somewhat private if your main threat are random internet trolls

Wow, this is actually very great. I hope many people will use this and app developers will be pressured to finally start thinking about bandwidth

>Discord, while overall better than Telegram for privacy

Sorry, what?

In terms of net human suffering we can execute everyone. No people -- no suffering
