My big question is whether any US based companies hosted are beholden to the German government because it's a German based company.
This in turn makes everyone beholden to the EU regulations and German censorship regulations. Yeah no thanks!

I can hardly trust any of the journalism with a title like this. How about you just sue them in court for calling your story a lie?

Maybe I'm deviating from the general consensus here, but to me the social-network-isms in GitHub are an anti-pattern in business and undesired in such a highly useful utility service.
Don't worry you'll be vilified for disliking features by the tech community because they can't not have social features everywhere.
sieabah commented on Why to not use JWT (2021) apibakery.com/blog/tech/n... · Posted by u/thunderbong
Think you misread, they were asking about the difference between a session ID in a cookie, and a bearer token. Not a session ID and a JWT.
With a bearer token each microservice still needs to call out to an auth service to validate the token, right?
If you share the hmac key or do private/public key signing you're able to distribute the public signing keys to your infra.
In doing so you just validate the token against the public key. You can then rotate these keys and have a list of them to validate against and age off keys which would be the last tokens expiration +1 day.
Oh this is cool. I would probably rather just have even better tooling for VS Code but this rules. Super glad Teensy support is on the way too.
There shouldn't be any reason an open source hardware company should support something like vscode themselves.
It takes one update from vscode to break everything and your SOL.
Okay I mostly agree with that. It’s difficult to lose weight while not eating meat and maintaining a high protein diet.
But my point isn’t that, it’s that for an average person eating average calories it’s not difficult by any means to get enough protein.
To be fair though, plant based protein powder is about 700 calories for 150g of protein too :)
The "average" American is obese, so I'm not sure we should be encouraging this inefficient source of protein.

I've been down this road multiple times with Arango DB, and Orient DB and IDK how many others. Doing too much of everything usually means not good at everything. I will stick to doing one job good, and battle tested tools.
How has your experience been with arango? I haven't had any major issues with it. It runs exceptionally well in kubernetes too.

That seems much more useful, since it applies to all Android apps, whereas Uber's solution would be limited to their app only.
Almost like they wrote a blog article about it so others could learn from it.
If it were available to all android apps I don't know why Uber would go out of their way to reimplement it. So it must not be available to all apps and exclusive to Google maps and Waze
sieabah commented on Ask HN: Why doesn’t Apple allow torrent clients on the app store? · Posted by u/KoftaBob
There are many things with technically legal purposes that people often choose not to associate with because they find the cons outweigh the pros. This is that.
I wish torrenting for general downloads was more popular. I had unstable internet that would make downloading anything over 100MB impossible.
Slap a torrent together of the same payload and it'd be guaranteed not to stall/error because of the network.
I know little of this case. She preemptively did this without a specific incident? How did this even make it to the SCOTUS? I feel anyone can refuse to work for someone else on any unsaid basis. It's when it is definable why they denied a customer, or work, then we can explore the implications.
Preemptive fears are baseless in this circumstance, IMO.
