  • Some police departments seem to actively reject candidates that have higher scores on IQ tests. Not that I think IQ test scores and actual intelligence are related but it clearly shows their intended target candidate group.

  • That's perfectly understandable and good to hear!

    Do you generally want feedback and have a preferred channel for it beyond hackernews comments?

  • Surprisingly, I haven't heard of Uruky yet, even though I'm actively looking for EU replacements to a lot of international companies.

    I have subscribed for a month and will give it a try.

    One feedback already though. Some of the German translations are...not great. For example, on the landing page under the "Not another AI tool". In English you write "We find it hard to do in a sensible, responsible, and respectful way." In the German translation its "Es fällt uns schwer, vernünftig, verantwortungsvoll und respektvoll zu handeln."

    The German translation makes it sound like you (as in you as a company and person) have a hard time being respectful, not the actual AI implementation.

  • I know its effecitvely a vendor lock-in and not what you are looking for but I love the SimpleLogin integration that Proton made with Proton Pass.

    I have it setup in my browser and phone. Whenever a website or app would like an email for an order or something else, it takes a single click to generate a named alias (using the website name) e Which forwards emails to my normal inbox. Replying to any received emails also uses the alias.

    The SimpleLogin interface could use some improvement though. Deleting unused ones is a bit tidious.
