The way I understand it is that no matter how well you manage problems, JavaScript is always going to be an abortion of a language because the real problems are higher up the ladder where developers are not allowed.

Just look at their company page, I think it's clear whats going on here. California administration is not capable of spending money wisely and Texas firms are not capable of not ripping off someone who is dependent on them. It's almost like a company build on internships can't really deliver a product, only a hole where their product should be, then when you fall in it, there they are on the lip of the hole saying here's a shovel, dig yourself out.
Xen is Dom0 and Qubes is Xen-based. It all seems quite "profitable startup" to me, and I don't see it as a serious contender in the security space at this point. It's really just another iteration on the walled garden approach, Now With Open Sores™! I just hope it will deflate the walled garden as security solution so we can make way for a real security OS that's not only open but isn't exclusively developed by teams of embedded-systems engineers armed with proprietary or internal documentation, like the other secure OSes out there.
All my friends use Signal! Oh wait, I don't have any friends because I work in networking and software world. I'm sure this won't be problem for me, as I'm powerful bureaucrat with powerful contacts that also won't use Signal.
I like how anyone even mentioning IP is downvoted to hell. It really shows you what market Ycombinator is really in. Every single comment is either someone's personal narrative, or a ridiculous troll where "OMG WHY" is the only thing they say in each sentence. Wow, I wonder how this ever became law when YCombinator commentators are so opposed to it?
Any other pointless context-less generalizations we can cram in here?
