Want a free VPN? How to use ProtonVPN on Android without having to pay

zdnet.com Jack Wallen 2025-10-06 07:32:19

June Wan/ZDNET I'm going to start off by saying that when presented with a free VPN service, I typically turn and run because most of those services cannot be trusted one bit. Even some paid VPN services aren't always what you think they should be. However, there are some VPNs that carry with them a reputation for being secure, stable and trustworthy. Nearly all of those VPNs have an associated cost, some of which can only be used for free during a trial period. And then there's ProtonVPN. A

Is mathematics mostly chaos or mostly order?

news.ycombinator.com Gregory Barber 2025-10-02 09:21:26

Last winter, at a meeting in the Finnish wilderness high above the Arctic Circle, a group of mathematicians gathered to contemplate the fate of a mathematical universe. It was minus 20 degrees Celsius, and while some went cross-country skiing, Juan Aguilera, a set theorist at the Vienna University of Technology, preferred to linger in the cafeteria, tearing pieces of pulla pastry and debating the nature of two new notions of infinity. The consequences, Aguilera believed, were grand. “We just do
