What tool or ecosystem does this well, in your opinion?
SecureDrop is great and we still will be using it at the Guardian for the foreseeable future. At the very least just to support sources who want to blow the whistle but don't use our app. In terms of how it's different.…
On spam: We’ve got some basic filtering for full on DoS type attacks already. The difficulty here is that a user can produce a reasonable amount of spam from a spread of IP addresses which would be disruptive to our…
I agree, it should certainly be front-and-centre, either the landing page or the on-boarding carousel. I'll see if we can get something together before the next app release. Thanks again!
Tech lead on the project here. I would certainly recommend that readers not use a work phone, not only for the reasons you've stated but also that a lot of work devices use mobile device management software which is…
Project lead here, the Secure Messaging part of the app is accessible without a subscription through the main menu.
Out of interest, how did you stream the video data to the frontend?
The elite Silicon Valley venture capitalist class has made it pretty clear which side they're on.
I think people really don't understand the effort, care and risk that goes into producing quality reporting. I work with investigative reporters on stories that take many months to produce. Every time we receive a leak…
As someone who works in the news industry I find it pretty sad that we've just capitulated to big tech on this one. There are countless examples of AI summaries getting things catastrophically wrong, but I guess Google…
I think we can be pretty confident that he wasn't shot because an AI product wasn't accurate.
I would agree and expand on this and say such hyper-luddites tend to make picking up new technology a self-fulfilling bad idea. Even if you can present a fantastic business case for something they don't want to learn…
Disclosure: I'm an engineer working at the Guardian on investigations tools. In your opinion, what can newspapers and their technology teams do to improve the process of whistleblowing. Any perspective is really…
As a software engineer in the UK I'm very much in the same bubble. It's almost unreal to me how much Windows has managed to enshittify. It's hard to know at what point (if ever) they'll turn the ship around and make an…
Is this role open to remote workers from the UK?
In case you're not aware, Signal has a chat called "Notes to Self" that should be more or less the same thing, except without having to create a group.
This tracks. I live very close to several HS2 construction sites in London and frequently see dozens of people just stood around doing nothing.
One thing that drove me mad about Oblivion was the level scaling of items which meant it sometimes made sense to be strategic about when you completed a quest in order to best optimise/metagame the mechanic. I really…
You can jump straight to search using {Cmd,Ctrl}-L the same as a web browser, but for folks who're not used to key commands the decision to hide the search bar is absolutely deranged.
It's literally a quote in the article hence the quotation marks.
Saying 10x programmers are a myth because it's crazy that someone could do in 1 day what another could do in 1 week makes the assumption that both programmers in the example have the same amount of context, background…
It allows you to put double quotes in the string without escaping them, which is pretty nice.
I've read that some people use a pre-paid credit card with a $1 spending limit when setting up their playground accounts. Seems like a reasonable approach.
Lack of access to public services, in this case broadband, is absolutely a political issue.
It comes down to the fact that the military (and associated industrial complex) doesn't exist to win wars.
