Quite new to Go, so sorry in advance for a stupid question:

> "Go got generics in 1.18 (March 2022), thirteen years after the language shipped. They are useful, but they feel tacked on, and in practice they have most of the downsides of a generic type system without delivering the upsides you’d expect coming from Rust, Haskell, or even modern C++."

The problems with Go generics have now largely been solved, haven't they? Is this comment from the author still applicable?

Maybe the only parts of a future internet people will actually hang out in is going to be one where any profit-making is completely de-incentivized. No recommendations. No product reviews. No opinions on companies or services. More slow web. Maybe we'll slowly head back to what websites used to look like when Yahoo was the biggest search engine.

More generally about companies and how they’re organized - Why do we have “benevolent dictator” CxOs and trickle-down ownership and decision making powers? But bottom-up responsibility for faults and mistakes? I feel like it’s high time to have more democratic systems at our workspaces as well. More of a co-op model of working than a pyramid. Doesn’t make sense at all, for example, that the core engineers who built the google search algorithm would be paid 5x (or further) less than a CEO of Google. And then if they leave Google, they immediately stop receiving “royalty” or compensation for their own code that is still being used by Google and will continue to earn it even more money while they’re gone.

Is this a closed source project? I don't want to give my email address to get a chance to even try it.

Stupid question: Do you know if the same can be done with Apple health data for my workouts?

They don't really say if DoT is safer. I'm more confused than informed by this article. Would've been nicer if they provided some proofs or data to back up their claims.

Also, does anyone know what's the safest option? And how to configure it for all our home devices?

Amazing app! It’s so close to “the one” news app I’ve always been trying to find. The section on coverage from across the political spectrum and what’s the difference really helps get a more balanced view of any news. Love that you give summaries that can be clicked and we see the quoted section from different articles!

One improvement would be to show less domestic US news to people from other countries, and more news sources of their own local languages. I think all “international” news apps suffer from this. I keep trying to tune down domestic topics from the US, but still have so much of it on the app, that it becomes a chore over just using a different regional news app
