For what it's worth, I'm a google workspace administrator and we've had issues with legitimate business emails going to our spam folders. We used various tools in the workspace admin console to whitelist the sender, but their

Oh no, the user has to press a button. Let's completely destroy privacy and complicate EVERYTHING just to save them that one click. Worth it.

So you're saying that microsoft has more money to work with? Everything I know about the legal system shows that the more money you have, the easier it is to get your way.

Writing software isn't illegal. Timeline goes like this: 1. Developers write open source software 2. Open source software is deployed for money laundering purposes by other people 3. Developers who wrote software at point (1) are now b

Okay, how does that relate to open source contributors? Can you retroactively read their minds and determine their intent? Why does their intent even matter? What they were doing was not illegal at the time, and now they are being punished

Not sure, thoughtcrime is a thing now in modern America?

Nice, what's next? Jailing everyone who ever had an abortion? Why aren't y'all americans doing that yet, if it's apparently acceptable to punish people for things they did before the supposed crime was made illegal?

So making a PR to some project the US government might decide to sanction means github is going to delete my account?

You clearly haven't been paying attention, then. It's easy to spend decades making crappy software.

So you don't believe in guilty until proven innocent? Or do you? How do you justify banning innocent users?

how to sync access control rules between couchdb and the rest of the business logic? do you just not care about security/privacy, or do you duplicate all the logic?

Top left always seemed more intuitive to me, but I don't have any reasoning. When using photoshop, I usually also draw squares starting at their top left corner.

HN has a rich history of shadowbanning unwanted users. Everyone should turn on "showdead" on their profile, which, to be fair, is at least an option.

It's insane, really. Many of my friends have no idea what to do when I send them an .mp3 or an .mp4 file if it doesn't instantly embed as a media player in their chat application of choice. For them, the only way to share images o

Same reason you would deploy to plain old servers. Your stuff has got to run somewhere. And (Google hosted) kubernetes solves a lot of issues for you out of the box, which you would otherwise have to solve eventually anyway. And it takes ba

No. Kubernetes is extremely valuable to small orgs. Google Kubernetes Engine is pretty much fire & forget. You turn it on, set the maintenance window and it just works. It also saves you from having to reinvent health checks, ingresses,

Why would it be slow? Docker is just as fast as running native on Linux. Unless you're talking about running it on Windows or Mac. In which case, don't do that. You don't want your developers developing on a different OS than
