Facebook once bought a VPN app for $120M and turned it into a surveillance tool that spied on 33M+ users' entire phones for years.
This app helped Zuck buy WhatsApp for a whopping $19B and break Snapchat's encryption.

This is absolutely ingenious: 50 lines of JavaScript which uses Puppeteer to get headless Chrome to grab a PDF screenshot of a page, then shells out to Inkscape to convert the PDF to SVG. Wraps the whole thing up in a Docker container and ships it to Cloud Run.
Tired of screenshots that appear blurry on high density displays? introducing SVG screenshots.
I wrote and deployed a small web service to Cloud Run that saves the given URL to an SVG image: html-to-svg.as-a-service.dev…

This is a really great talk by @XihongLin, professor of BioStats at Harvard on insights gleaned from studying 26,000 COVID-19 cases on Wuhan. Highly recommend watching the whole thing and I hope policy makers see this: youtube.com/watch?v=aQ9KIO1e…
Thank you @broadinstitute

Apparently the @fold_app team made a shopping site for preppers for fun a year or so ago. It's proven prescient 🙃

A hack I can only recommend: change your python startup to register true/false/null as aliases for True/False/Null on the builtins and you can copy/paste JSON into a Python console.

If WASM+WASI existed in 2008, we wouldn't have needed to created Docker. That's how important it is. Webassembly on the server is the future of computing. A standardized system interface was the missing link. Let's hope WASI is up to the task!
WebAssembly running outside the web has a huge future. And that future gets one giant leap closer today with...

I'm very concerned to hear that my friend and colleague @olabini has been arrested in Ecuador. He is a strong advocate and developer supporting privacy and has not been able to speak to any lawyers

Thanks for the #LNTrustChain @Leishman!! It's been an exciting ride watching this get passed around, and an honor to be chosen to hold it! Who wants it next? 3.8 Msats
