<p>OK. Sure. It’d be better, for you, a technologically savvy receiver of email. I can’t see anyone else in the equation that stands to benefit from this. I can’t see non-tech-savvy email receivers caring much about this at all, or any of its effects, until it has near-universal adoption. Part of solution engineering is coming up with something that people actually want to use.<p>So I don’t really see it as better. I see it as pie-in-the-sky fan-fiction to address <i>part</i> of what masked emails aims to address. A significant portion of the time that I used masked email, it’s in service of increasing anonymity (to the organisation i am giving the email address to), not an anti-spam measure.</p>

<p>I 100% believe that Apple is putting real effort into co-design of these features in a way that other similarly positioned companies do not.<p>As someone with a disability, these features—even those do not cater to my disability—speak to me in a much more direct way than the typical “let’s guess what the disabled people want” bucket of accessibility features.</p>

<p>Every Hacker News thread inevitably devolves into a conversation about the US Constitution and the Founding Fathers regardless of any attempts to stop it.<p>The ongoing insinuation that the US is the One True Way to run a State has caused so much legitimate worldwide damage. It’s sad to see supposedly enlightened HN commenters continue to perpetuate it.</p>

<p>If anything’s true about Internet / hacker / open source culture at the time, it’s that the bar was lower for someone to have a following of devoted fetishists willing to spread the Good Word. People can call it 20/20 hindsight all they want, and <i>some</i> of it is, but looking at all these sacred cows for what they are through a modern lens is important. ESR was, and is, a tool. So much of what was written and highly regarded Back Then is just poorly written self-congratulatory nerdy fairytales with an arguable connection to reality.</p>

<p>I picked up Little Snitch recently, after 10 or so years off it. It certainly provides value, but way way way less than I’d expected, and way way way less than it used to. Public cloud homogeneity and the ubiquity of connected applications means that there has been very little occasion to meaningfully do anything more than an “all or nothing” on an application, and very little occasion for me to want to err on the “nothing” side.</p>

<p>Bay Area life is hardly necessary and shouldn’t be taken as a given. You’re making an active decision to take the gamble on earning a lot on paper but being in a super HCOL area. I earn a comfortable amount and am likely going to retire comfortably, though I certainly earn less than you. You’ve decided to take the risk. Own it or change.</p>

<p>Be an iota more specific than that. An iota. If you can, with a straight face, I’ll eat my hat.<p>The argument of “this doesn’t cater for the super-minority of nerdy power user ideologues”, that’s honestly not going to roll commercially, sorry. If we are talking about the regular adoption curve, enterprises holding things back, or literally just…anything more than you and RMS, I just don’t see that as remotely relevant.</p>

<p>No, you’re applying a specific meaning to an inherently nebulous term, debullshitification.<p>And honestly, I immediately knew what that meant when I read it. My preferred news source, which isn’t horrendously partisan, still has…exactly what I’d call bullshit. If that’s removed, I’ll get more bang for my buck in reading it, and that both provides immense value, and something that I’d call “debullshitification”, whilst working purely from the articles provided.</p>
