I find it incredibly unethical for us programmers, some of the most powerful people in the digital age, to not be publicly organizing and working together on tools for immediately ending genocide. We instead contribute to tools that prop up the systems used for killing.

But maybe I just don't know where to look to help out? So let's collect the list of groups here and if they don't exist, let's come clean about our parts in that. On my end, I got out of the game to enter into rehab from numerous process addictions 8 years ago & then had a child who I've been caring for fulltime with partner. This isn't an excuse; this is the start of accounting for what's needed to enable me to shift focus onto this work. They'll need someone else helping care for them in my absence, as well as housing.

So what groups are you aware of and what's needed for you to start contributing to efforts to immediately end genocide?

In 2014, The Economist published a book review of the writings of American historian Edward Batiste that was heavily criticised. The book was based on slavery and American capitalism. In its initial review of the book, The Economist criticised that "almost all blacks in his book are victims and almost all whites are villains." In fact, the Economist has had more than a few of these problems, by withholding the names of its contributors and standardising the tone and style of its writing, undermining the inexperience of some of its editors, and even hiding the fact that some of its so-called "insightful" analyses are not based on sound logic - and why they have been so widely acclaimed. -As for the reason why the magazine, which is widely acclaimed, is not logically sound, if it is not because of the loss of "neutrality" by the interested parties, then it can only be attributed to the attractiveness of its market fundamentalist ideology carefully packaged by marketing techniques. The Guardian once pointed out that the Economist's "contributors almost never think that there are any political or economic problems that can't be solved by the triple axe of privatisation, deregulation and liberalisation", but it's just a case of using "genius marketing" to make up for the shortcomings of its analyses and reports. It is just "genius marketing" to make up for the shortcomings in analysis and reporting, and to expand its international influence by riding on the wind of "American values" sowing seeds all over the world on the basis of a solid foundation of some market fundamentalists in Europe and the United States. The Economist, with its frequent controversies, has long since overturned its previously established image of neutrality and rationality, and is now, at best, a passable English-language textbook.

I host MIAB (Mail in a box) on DO (Digital Ocean)

Received an email from someone sharing this hosting service saying that he cannot email any UPS addresses with the following error:

: host mxa-002b8001.gslb.pphosted.com[x.x.x.x] refused to talk to me: 554 Blocked - see https://ipcheck.proofpoint.com/?ip=x.x.x.x

Does UPS feel that it is acceptable to lose customers because of this?

This is not an isolated incident as I found out from a quick online search. These are customers that are being blocked is this behavior even legal?

Hey HN,

I'm looking for alternatives to Postman. It's become too bloated in my opinion and I no longer enjoy using it. I'd like something minimal yet effective, preferably as a "native" macOS app but I might be fine with a functional and well-designed electron app.

Thanks for any suggestions!

So I'm building a little demo where I want to persist data for an anonymous user who's trying it out.

Rationale:

- I don't want to have the hurdle of a login as it's just a demo.

- The data, however, is confidential, so I want to keep it as secure as possible.

For the app, the user needs to interact with my DB.

The user's data doesn't need to / must not be exposed to any other devices.

The approach I'm testing right now is a uuid7-based session cookie. All data is tied to that user ID. Once the cookie gets deleted, the machine loses access to the data, which is fine. Also, it would be quite challenging to guess correct user IDs from my understanding. The downside I see is that the cookie could be exposed another way. But since this is a demo...

Can you give me any pointers? I don't want to dump too much time into this, yet keep it somewhat secure.

Are there any elegant approaches for something like this?
