Food bank usage is up ~30% year-over-year. Hardly surprising that people are delaying upgrades for smartphones. (Not a “grrr, smartphones” post, just a sad reality post)

I love JMAP. It's what allowed me and my team (at 1Password) to easily add support for Masked Emails, where we randomly generate your email address in addition to your password. Our own Madeline Hanley wrote about that experience, if y

I've been a happy Fastmail customer for years prior to working on this feature. I've used a wildcard with my Fastmail account, created a new email address for each service I sign up with, and stored that email address in 1Password

That's a good concern. I can't fully speak for the Fastmail folks, but I know that there are a few upper limits for how many masked email addresses that one account can create. We tried to set them unreasonably high to allow for a

Definitely! You can decide within Fastmail’s settings[0] which domain you want to use for masked emails. It can be fastmail.com, one of their fun domains like afcrichmond.uk, or one of your own. I've even seen some 1Password coworkers

True! I've been doing wildcard.company.name@mydomain.com for a few years now with Fastmail. This makes it one step easier to generate that email address, as well as one-click blocking any alias that starts receiving spam.

Those +plus aliases still make it easy for people find your actual email address. We go one step further and generate a random email address for each new service you sign up with. It'll look something like "hot.potatoes4827@mydoma

Hi, one of the 1Password engineers who worked on this. Glad to hear that you like the idea! One of the really nice parts of building this out with Fastmail is that you can create Masked Emails for your own domain. So, if you ever decide th

I mean, sure, you're technically correct, but you're missing the point. For just one example, it's so heckin' convenient when an app recognizes that you have a 2FA token in your clipboard copied from your 2FA app and &qu

I understand your point, but I wanted to mention that other countries do charge for bathrooms (even NYC charges for public washrooms), so you can use a better example in the future!

Nice. I've really missed stupid/short games like these. Most Flash games have a separate instruction box for what keys to press. Any way to add this?

I think it's the "well-configured" part. While I love using vim, my .vimrc file and .vim folder have been crafted and maintained over years. I can't give those to beginners without explanation. VS needs no setup. Intelli

There is. Adblock Plus allows plain and unobtrusive advertising out of the box. For example, Reddit was recently whitelisted, which I'm sure helps their bottom line. https://adblockplus.org/en/features#acceptable

Microsoft does this. I have helped port a few apps that are popular on other platforms. The incentive for the company was, in fact, quite sizable.

I have let to see a local business in the US use a metal detector. Most will use shoplifting-detection gates at the exits. An "empty your pockets and purse" metal detector is terrible for business.

It's a generous payout. The cuts seem indiscriminate when I look at all the talented people being cut. I imagine that it is hard to surgically remove 20% of your workforce. Right now, I'm torn between looking for work immediately and asking
