He did donations against same-sex marriage. I see why some people would not want him to be an influential person, myself included.

Also because of how economy works now, interest in Brave translates to the value of its built-in cryptocurrency (BAT) and therefore the economic power of its creator.

I love Bandcamp, they never reply my emails. :(

Sorry. I don't trust alt-right publishers.

Nice.

.bashrc:

httpcode () { python3 -c "from http import HTTPStatus; print(HTTPStatus($1))" }

They will probably make Notes seamless and cool inside the twitter app and external links slow and clumsy.

I use KDE Connect every day. I use it to control the volume and screen brightness of my laptop when it's out of reach and many other things.

The mouse cursor functionality is great and works flawlessly.

I honestly don't think HN is the place for JP's childish rants.

Not related to technology but there were two websites where I used to donwload lots of spanish and Basque punk rock. Comando Glaucoma (a private forum), and Yahorake.tk. I miss them a lot.

What? You can't trademark it. There's a British band called Doom, id/Bethesda/whatever doesn't care.

Brave always looked shady to me. Even inoring that I don't like Brendan for personal reasons. There is something nauseating about using "privacy" and other nice-sounding words to pump your own crypto-currency. I may be misunderstanding things here, I'm open to positive arguments about this.

This is interesting, I'm used to "Acracia" (Spanish) as a synonym of Anarchy. E.g. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%81cratas

The spanish version of OP's article is not linked to it but here it is: https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acracia And presents it more or less as a synonym of Anarchy without mention of "lack of will".
