It’s not that we’re spying on users for fun. We’re analyzing the browser history so determine if the history contains any sites that are associated with malicious activity. We definitely don’t care about your pr0n

I’ve been using Sublime Text for more than a decade and I gave Zed a try recently. I don’t have good reasons like the author, but I kinda wanted to see what the hype was about. I really liked everything about it including the much better LS

Out of curiosity I went to look at the pricing for Amazon’s CloudHSM service for AWS and nearly spit out my drink. $5,000 up front cost per device and $1.88/hr and they suggest running two for high availability. At those prices I don’t
