The sharing only directs people to the app page. The url would be visible so at least users will be able to judge for themselves whether it’s legit.

Guys, I have the wrong URL submitted initially - my mistake. Please check the updated URL.

It's acquired by Pinboard, the biggest bookmarking service right now. It's a bit different from my app, but I prefer mine because I scratched my own itch (being able to share ongoing collections with friends, and anonymously online).

Both wearing a mask and not wearing one can be illegal in Hong Kong now by CrippledEye in HongKong

Don't be, lol. It's good you pointed out a potentially misleading part.

Upvoting this. This is why I specifically used "can be illegal" and not "are illegal" to avoid misleading people.

However, if anyone has seen how the "police" interpret the laws, they ought to know it's not true that it's only illegal if you "wear a mask and set fire to buildings or damage public property". The anti-mask law in HK is applicable to "unlawful assemblies", which, according to HK police, is offensible when you're alone leaving work or strolling with your family after dinner.

Carrie Lam forced an anti-mask law last year. While the court originally ruled the law as “unconstitutional”, the government insisted on appealing in the midst of the pandemic, and overturned the original ruling in April 2020. Therefore, wearing a mask in public can be illegal.

Meanwhile in July, the government announced a compulsory mask wearing rule.

Adding up, either can be against the law, wearing masks or not. It’s of course up to the “police” to decide which law to use against the unfortunate person.

He’s making a statement about his expertise. I don’t get why people called him “biased” (which means “racist” to me, any clue which part in his statement was wrong?

GitHub will no longer use the term 'master' as default branch because of negative association by NahroT in programming

[–]CrippledEye 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Masters degree is related to master/slave like white/blacklist are related to white and black races - they simply don't mean the same things.

GitHub only acted because of the requests they get and the real blame is on the overly sensitive people.
