You do have a choice, thats why there is the ugly text with the learn more link. They really went out of their way to ensure you were informed. Anything less than acknowledgement stinks too much of either the tech cults, or unfounded paranoia. The first icon presented is Safari, so if you don't read and don't look at icons, then okay... But that's not Apples problem. If it's a feature you don't want to use, don't use it, you can turn it off without a python scripts. I tire of these stupid games.

Everything you put on your computer should be assumed to be public the moment you connect to the internet. With air gap jump technology starting to become proven, you should assume that all digital content is public. To think otherwise is hubris and stupidity all wrapped up with a tiny little bow. Every company and government agency has been compromised to one degree or another, and targeted attacks are 100% effective given even slight competence on the part of the hacker. I've been around since before the modem, I've seen everyone hacked.
Regardless, it doesn't matter. It's simply ignorant to bitch about this, when the NSA literally intercepts all of this and exploits or introduces exploits into the software you use. This is fact. Apple at it's worst will present you an advertisement, big fucking whoop. Seriously, what is the risk? Annoyance? The NSA can wrap you around a pole and make it appear you were snorting 12kilos of coke a day. I am quite literally baffled by the sentiment on HN when I see people up in arms over convenience like this trumped up as if it were in violation of your rights. They added a 'learn more' link and explain what is going on. Yet the same people simply ignore the actual threat, repeatedly. Cowards.
Keep fighting them windmills. Because the real enemy fights back.
I have zero issue with this, and it's clearly labelled and explained. Of all the breaches in my privacy, this isn't one I'm worried about. Google gets 100% of my searches and email messages, so it's a question of who you trust.
Right, I really phrased that poorly. I use vagrant on a windows machine in the office and various macs at home. Without the LXC, fig & docker don't really provide anything above what I'm using. Were I to move to linux, then this would have some advantages. Thanks for the clarification and a fantastic product.
I've known about this for a while, though I don't remember my source. I seem to recall that it was first envisioned under Jobs, and AT&T started swinging punches when they caught a whiff. Although the source appears solid in hindsight, I chalked it up to a subterfuge project. Can anyone who has since left confirm this was the same initiative?
Well, the lack of a keyboard and mouse and the lack of an intuitive way to solve these problems in a mobile device. These comments seem to imply that I can add hardware and the problem is solved. If I add hardware, I no longer have mobile on the go development, I have a bag of crap that makes this less convenient than an air or ultrabook. Now if someone invents a way that eliminates the need for the keyboard, then I'll use it with glee. But this product is a desktop app on a mobile device and does nothing to really innovate in the space. I want this to work, but it isn't as simple as writing a desktop app on android.
I always dislike the negative comments in Show HN, but I have experimented heavily with writing code on mobile devices, and there are much bigger issues than the editor. This may be a good product, the screenshots look good (though the same number of people buying the app as the number of current upvotes on HN, so that looks fishy as all hell). Regardless, the form factor just isn't suited to content creation, and nothing in the description or screens addresses this.
Does anyone know of a reasonable deployment management solution in open source for .Net? Octopus is perfect, but with my limited budget of $0, it's a tad costly.
I do take pride in my work, and every piece of software I write handles every use case I need it for explicitly. I take offense that you would imply otherwise knowing absolutely nothing of me and my craft. This isn't about UTF-8, it's about an illogical premise where some very shortsighted individuals would rather have only fully fleshed, fully baked products in open source. This is highly illogical, and would bury ideas potentially unexposed for others to coach and assist with. You aren't the judge of what others find difficult, but that doesn't mean that those that struggle with a concept cannot add tremendous value in other areas.
By the way, it's not utf-8, it's UTF-8. Whatever happened to taking pride in your writing and making it the best it can be?
Everyone has their own criteria for quality, and you can't hope to satisfy everyone. Everyone with even a mildly successful project in open source knows this. Scratch your own itch, make it work, accept any request that meets with your vision, and keep a permissive licence so those that don't can fork. Otherwise, the arrogance being asserted, that you can somehow determine if my contribution is worth of existing, is baffling.
I hate this sentiment. I speak English and French and have limited amount of time to hack on software I'm giving away for free. My day job consists entirely in English. I have neither the experience, nor the inclination for internationalization of software. Don't like, don't use it. Or fork it, and add it yourself, because obviously you have more free time than I have.
