> The most important reason for us to remove SMS support from Android is that plaintext SMS messages are inherently insecure. They leak sensitive metadata and place your data in the hands of telecommunications companies.

Ok I get that on Android the situation is such that, as a message provider, you don't give away "metadata" ie who is texting whom, keeping that data either for yourself or the highest bidder. WhatsApp, too, fuss about e2e encryption while conveniently not talking about the value of "metadata" for ad targeting and even want to aggressively grab and upload your contacts at every turn (despite it being illegal in EU to share PII without explicit and documented and revocable consent of all individual phone number holders stored in your phone book). But why does this change come only on Android? Would it be suicidal for signal to drop SMS/MMS when the default messaging app (iMessage) does fall back to SMS/MMS on iOS as is well known?
How much does it cost to convince the judge that you simply misremembered the weather that day?
Tcl is kinda the same in that regard, hence some expanding that acronym as "try coding less". It's hard to make a powerful language that offers more power in such a small amount of simple, understandable code than these. (Though I have a hard time wrapping my head around Lisp, I find Tcl (and Lua, for a more modern incarnation of the idea) to be dead simple and intuitive, with awesome leverage in capability per LOC.)

One of the comments points out that Martha Stewart was convicted for a basket of charges completely unrelated to the securities fraud that she was indicted for in the first place. Among them: two counts of lying to federal agents.

The provide a fairly clear rationale beyond the ideological concern: users don't know/see who is on SMS and who isn't, and are being hit with high fees, and they are concerned that users may believe they have privacy when they do not.

These are reasonable issues and concerns, so I don't follow why you would question all of the other decisions they make.

> Glass bottles compose nearly one-third of all beer volume in the United States and nearly two-thirds of above premium segment volume.

I think the "premium" is what I'm noticing; I kind of ignore all the large packs of aluminum beer cans (though to be honest that's the only beer I have on hand right now).

What I have very rarely seen is plastic beer - only at stadiums where they don't want you throwing the bottle at the players, basically.

Of course, the only proper beer container is a giant keg.

When I last used them for Rust about two years ago they were racing neck and neck against a language server being refactored to share
a backend with the reference compiler.

I switched to the language server because I felt running the actual compiler will in the long term always work better than writing your own parser. I was on the Jetbrains student discount, so I made a small recurring contribution to the rust language server project.

I think in retrospect that was the correct decision. The language server team has done great work, and they support things impractical to do with just parsing like autocompleting functions defined by macros.

> A democratic government is the means by which the population prevents the monopoly on legal violence from falling permanently into the hands of any individual

That would be nice if we had a “democracy”. Because of both gerrymandering and the design of the constitution - 2 senators per state, and the electoral college - we don’t have one.

The “majority” doesn’t care as long as law enforcement is used unfairly against “them”. There is a reason that during the protests in the US, protestors started using “White shields”. They knew how fast the population would turn against law enforcement when the local news showed them beating up on white people.

Is this outcry US specific? Don't think I've sent a single SMS the last decade here in EU.
Absolutely not. Nobody wants to have to use a second app, especially after having it this way forever. Where's the change.org petetion?

I will be recommending against using Signal for any reason whatsoever to unless this decision changes. If it goes through, I'll move myself and everyone to something else. The options for e2e encryption are many today and I already have to have a bunch of these apps, so Signal becomes pointless. If they do this, they'll do worse later. Better to get out now at the "first" red flag.
In well designed democratic systems, there is a rigidly enforced hierarchy, ideally structured and organized to limit the power of any one person. In a structureless system those safeguards don't exist. Things might work for a while, until people make a mistake of electing a dictator who decides to hold onto power. Now you don't have a democracy anymore.
Removal of the 45p tax rate would cost around £2bn, which is peanuts compared to the amount spent on the COVID furlough scheme, for example. Calling it "wild tax cuts for the wealthiest" is political posturing.
it demonstrates that the program organizers either don't understand enough about firearms to realize they would be "overpaying", or they simply don't care about wasting public funds.

it also raises doubts about the number of guns/parts that were actually removed from circulation (vs purchased/manufactured only to turn in). I recall a similar story where a guy simply bought the entire stock of cheap shotguns from a local Walmart and turned them in for $80 profit each.
Oh, ho hum. Music piracy was rampant until iTunes and the iPod changed the game to the extent of forcing (alongside court orders) Napster to go legit. Two decades later, music streaming is ubiquitous, consumers are satisfied, and music piracy is a retro anachronism. This is just applying market pressure to bring about necessary product innovation through other means.
And what happens when they start changing the port? It's a battle no one ultimately can win, in short term. The technical options available to get DNS by so many different means are so easy to implement, relatively speaking. Even a really junior engineer can likely invent their own DNS resolution protocol, its one of the simplest APIs to reinvent if all you care about is returning IP address for a given name.

80 and 443 are only used by convention for HTTP/HTTPS - you can use whatever the hell you like. There's also the option to not use HTTP(S) or DNS at all to obtain addresses, the list of ways you can avoid traditional methods is endless. Finally, you can just serve your DNS on same IP as back end of the app - block the IP and the app dies completely, meaning a simple IP block will not work etc etc. It's super easy to write some code that combines tens of methods, ensuring you get that DNS record no matter how hard the user tried to stop you.

FWIW people (including me) already do this, but its a blunt tool and not all that effective in many cases:

You used FBI and the term law enforcement in the same sentence. Sad to say the respect I once had for what the FBI likes and dislikes has been greatly diminished by the political bias that seems to influence it’s actions. I look forward to the day when they are strictly law enforcement and without political agenda. We as a country need them.

I’d like to note that a lot of people posted yesterday complaining about a Meta walled garden - the MS partnership (and Zuck’s previous comments) to me points to the opposite strategy.

One other thought - since hardware is the limiting factor right now, it’s clear that Apple will have a massive advantage with their vertically integrated hardware capabilities. But _they_ are much more likely to go with a walled garden approach, which could hold things back.

I think in the short term, the enterprise market is a good way to build the installed base and bring down the cost of headsets. And especially with a lot of people recently moving to remote work due to Covid, I think there is a newfound appetite to try novel things to foster interpersonal connection while working remotely. (Not to mention that many companies now have a huge reduction in OpEx from ditching their office lease.)

There's no double-standard, just a different standard: if something is a crime under Hong Kong law if you do it in Hong Kong, it should also be a crime under Hong Kong law if you do it somewhere else, and be punished as adjugated by a Hong Kong court.

In addition to what everyone else here is saying (this is the most mind-bogglingly stupid idea you could imagine, which will instantly kill the adoption of Signal in the US) I want to point out that the purported reasons for removing this feature would be completely solved by hiding SMS behind a setting. If you want to be EVEN MORE paranoid you could periodically warn users if this setting is enabled, just like they periodically bug you about your pin. The only explanation I can have for this decision is that the real reasons for it have nothing to do with those given.

Same here. I see no reason to continue using Signal if they do this.
I’m with you, I de-Googled all my services a few years ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision.

if I close some MIT-licensed code, and make changes, how exactly is that denying attribution or taking code away from anyone?

The negativity runs rampant because the goodwill tech folk gave these companies was crushed when they demonstrated that they didn't actually have good intentions. After so many transgressions why should anyone trust Meta with anything? Even if this was the solution to all my problems, should I just let them off the hook and forget about the past? Maybe I would be more optimistic if this was coming from a company without a history of disrespecting its users.

I don't know if VR is the path to bridging the fidelity gap you mentioned, but even if it was Meta's "round out any potential rough edge" approach represents a step backward from what we already have. Why use their game, which infantilizes its users to avoid alienating potential advertisers, as opposed to VRChat or something else where you might actually have a meaningful interaction?

This kind of thinking is exactly what's killing signal. Why would you want to gatekeep the security of others instead of making t as accessible as possible?

To me this feels like signal not understanding that their intended userbase and their actual userbase are very different, as I can't imagine the number of people that use signal solely for it's e2ee is comparable to the number of people that use it as their sms app.
Intel will lay off 20k employees
Terrible decision. You don't improve the average person's security posture by increasing the barrier-to-entry of encrypted messaging - and removing SMS support is doing exactly that. Signal -is- was great BECAUSE it made the transition from SMS to Signal so seamless.

Yeah I agree. I probably would have used a non-modal dialog here. You can actually absolutely position (or, rather sticky positioned) the body of the <details> to the top.

But I think the dismiss button, inside the dialog warrants it being a <dialog>. Dialogs usually open with a <button> (so that answers that question), and you would open this by calling dialog.show()—as opposed to the usual dialog.showModal()—since you don’t want to capture the focus. The Benefit of using the <dialog> element is that you can put it anywhere you want inside your DOM structure and allow it to interact with the page however you want to.
> It distractes from the main culprits:

I think the essence of your post is that we should consider both sides of the coin: supply and demand. Both should not be immune to criticism and I agree completely with that sentiment.
Improving UI/UX around to clarify the SMS function is insecure is almost impossible. Google did research around SSL cert warnings a few years back, their conclusion was that people don’t read and just dismiss warnings, no mater what UI was. A frightening percentage of people also think the security padlock icon is actually a handbag.

Most people simply lack the technical basis to understand the security implications of sms. And for Signal to be a secure messaging system by default SMS needs to be removed.
