If you cannot ignore slack in the evening, weekends, you gotta be bad at your job. If you are good, employer won't want to replace you and you can condition them to respect boundaries.

"I sent you a message, why didn't you respond?"

"I didn't see it."

"What were you doing?"

"Cooking. Food shopping. You know, the essentials to survive"

Not that I'd elaborate. I much prefer the "I had plans/a prior engagement".

If they ask, "I cannot really discuss this, it's private"

That era was peak Pro Evo.

You can ignore that also...

Length of time never means quality of decisions. Always best to validate. So easy to package up malware and farm folks bank accounts.

What?

Was that just an embarrassed verbal vomit?

You were wrong, and rather than admitting, or leaving it, you continue trying to spew words in the hope that you confuse and distract people from realising you were wrong. Are you that insecure?

What you are referring to is heuristics. It's simplistic. Effective for wild animals that require processing of complex information quickly to escape predators for example, but not so much for civilised humans that require a greater deal of accuracy.

You demonstrated the ineffectiveness of the approach by assuming I'm a Democrat or even American.

The skill is in understanding the process, the flaw and developing a capability for critical thought. You'll get there eventually, hopefully.

For it to be the most secure app in the world, you'd need to understand the main attack vectors, and how to mitigate them. You'd have to understand them and how you mitigate them better than how Signal or Element mitigate them. Finally, you'd have to get it audited by a reputable security auditor than will validate your claims.

If you do not have the money, best bet is to have a donation method or 2, like Liberapay, Open Collective etc. and fund raise for it. Active users are more likely to donate, so get folk using it. Focus more on what it is and it's advantages. "A secure chat app that can be run regardless of hardware out of your browser*. Long term aims to be the most secure app in the world. Join us on that adventure."

If you do not know, learn. If you really want to create the most secure chat app in the world, you have to become a subject matter expert, know the challenges and rivals. There is no shortcut in this. Depends how much you want this.

Oh, and yeah, JS, if you're using node, keep your app and dependencies scanned and up to date constantly.

I'm on that instance and not a tankie. I'm politically left, but object completely to authoritarianism and justification of atrocities.

So yeah, I get annoyed when pricks generalise and wish my death upon me for thinking maybe we should help the poorest in society and don't think the super rich deserve every penny they get.

I find it ironic when people are hating on one political grouping and their conduct is no better than the ones they despise.

Ah, my mistake. Thanks for the correction.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (7 children)

Wow, that's a pretty discussing comment. You do not agree with a few peoples views, do generalise and want them to die. You're worse than tankies.

Edit: my memory failed me. Wrong guy.

Isn't he the pro-Russia dude that got overthrown? If so, this kind if reeks of self-promotion.

Bashing govt, so what, he can win and hand Ukraine back to Russia?
