This reads like it's straight from the comment section of a Facebook post and is low quality even for HN's recent discussion culture.

I'll bait, even though this is quite obvious a low-effort comment without any basis. If you would have read the article, you could have noted the following: > Max Schrems: "The penalty will go to Ireland - the State that has ta

But BSH is a direct child company of Bosch, you can even get those products for a discount as a (automotive) Bosch employee. Most Bosch divisions are separate child companies. It's just that BSH is very small part of Bosch compared to

> Not being a public company means nobody cares about quarterly results. And this is why I like Bosch so much (as an employee for a very similar amount of time). The working climate in most places is relaxed compared to most competitors

That's definitely not true. Most hidden service use some darknet-specific captchas nowadays. Just open the next best darknet market or simply forum and you'll see what I mean.

From my personal experience (at least the German) media focuses on that as well. I read a lot of articles on how the companies are working to scale the output up. One good and recent example is this article (paywalled) https://ww

Where do you get that from? There's a huge effort to scale up the production up, which you can see by the weekly increasing output for example of Biontech [0]. Discussing one thing doesn't exclude taking care of another. [0] http

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. As described in the article, you can avoid this by hiding your "last seen" status. But why use the "last seen" feature, if WhatsApp also has an "online" indicator? Funni

On the other hand Signal is encouraged by people like Edward Snowden (who I assume is paranoid enough about American big corps). The clients are open source and feature a strong E2EE, which is called the Signal protocol and is used by many

I assume they do that do avoid comments on old issues. If they are already using bots like that they are probably barely able to respond to new issues, so comments on old issues will never be read anyways. By forcing users to open new issue

Not exactly sure what you are talking about. People are fleeing from Whatsapp because it's owned by Facebook (which has one of the worst privacy reputations), because it's closed source and because facebook can replace your E2EE p

Because in contrast to Matrix it looks much more accessible to the average user. Not all of my friends are in IT and want to/are able to use matrix. Signal is also nonprofit, fully opensource and minimizes metadata to a minimal amount

I'm sorry, but where did you get that information from? The FAQ only states: > Media and messages you back up aren't protected by WhatsApp end-to-end encryption while in Google Drive. That makes sense, why would you re-encrypt

Not the OP, but I'd say noisetorch already works pretty good for that use case. Especially with the recent additions of pre-selecting the last device and stuff like that, I really appreciate those minor QOL improvements. If I compare i

For me noisetorch [0] (based on RNNoise [1][2]) works pretty good. I'm using RTX Voice while I'm working on Windows and noisetorch while working on manjaro. RTX Voice seems to work a bit better, but noisetorch compares really well

A lot of companies in the (German) automobile industry rely heavily on Matlab and its toolboxes, so I'd assume that people like you are wanted there as well.

Alternatively Homeassistant also offers an integration for Node Red, which feels a bit odd to work with at first but I learned to love it more and more. I never really bothered to learn Homeassistants YAML automation syntax. https:/&#
