You're using your anecdotal experience to say that an entire profession of people who undergo many years of training don't understand the scope of the issue but that you do. That's why I downvoted you.

Having nude photos of oneself on a device that is easily stolen in an easily accessible, unprotected manner sounds pretty stupid to me.

Clearly it is a public service. Doesn't everyone cross-reference their dates with these kinds of sites? I obviously wouldn't want to wind up with someone stupid enough to get their nude pics AND contact information on the internet

Possibly, though there is an alleged victim, Shelby Conklin, of the pinkmeth site involved in the case. It isn't clear if she found the lawyer or if the lawyer found her though.

Yes and no. I've used the forums a bit having asked and answered questions. Most of my hobby was in modifying the games and hardware, eventually dabbling in homebrew development. My name there is the same as it is here, but I haven

I can't speak for the GameBoy system, but I've spent years hacking on the NES. The way the color system breaks down is you have a palette of 4 colors. From there you can load 4 "background" palettes along with 4 "sp

"Hold on, let me scan your crotch with my smartphone" is about as likely to happen as "Hold on, please sign this form giving consent" for two people about to fuck. Let's be realistic here. This also ignores the obvi

Artifact or not, it's still something one must maintain. Not checking for errors is not a bug, it is you choosing to not support a fringe group of users because it is worth your time and effort. You can call it whatever you like, but t

Yes, a good programmer writes a robust application, but ignoring the specifics of this case is being entirely disingenuous. If I write an app to use the Play API and only distribute it via the Play Store then there is no good reason for me

Except you do not own it, you rent it. Most folks who sell domains just pick one up for a few bucks and try to charge a ridiculous fee to transfer it. You are taking a publicly available address and extorting someone who actually intends to

I obviously do not know how these LECs are setup legally speaking, but it is possible to own and operate fully automatic weapons legally as a civilian or business. You can get a tax stamp from the ATF for a few hundred dollars. As an exampl

In that case, my apologies, this is the edge-case of a domain-transfer of a domain that was truly being used. The way I had read things, it sounded as though you parked a two-letter domain on a sketchy web-cam site. And regarding the public

The exact same concept as holding onto a parking spot and waiting for someone to come along and pay for it. Despicable. I read most everything jacquesm writes and enjoy it, but how can you justify rent-seeking on a public resource?

You are only more likely to be bit if you are playing in a match against him. I expect the odds of anyone reading this comment to be a professional soccer player to be very close to 0. So no, you really aren't more likely to be bit by

From a strategic perspective, I think paying off one of the ISPs in this case strengthens their case by showing that the problem is a shakedown for money. If they didn't pay up and the issue was never fixed then the ISPs could attempt

I've got a few questions: 1. What level are you looking for in a developer (Mid/Senior)? 2. I see you have things segregated out as JS, Android, Ruby and so forth. How much cross-interaction is there between the roles? For instanc

His signal/noise ratio is pretty terrible. The "showdead" is off by default and that is a good thing. I'd rather miss out on a good point every once in a while than see more chaff, especially ranty, incoherent, and often

The grandparent post is sounding like the Russians are stopping immediate collaboration as a result of the Ukrainian conflict. That is not the case, and it is not clear if the ISS issue is even related to the situation at hand.

This is only Russia refusing to sell rocket engines to the US Government for use in launching military rockets into space. This has nothing to do with the scientific collaboration.

I think it varies from state to state, but I know in the state of South Carolina one is considered an adult at 17 in court for some reason. I think the prosecutor can also choose to charge you as an adult if the crime is serious enough.

I definitely agree with this. I dropped out of college and went full-time at the place I had been working and was making something like $12/hour (I think it was bumped up to $16) then turned into a salary. I didn't really question

I suppose that would depend on how the recruiters operate. I'd imagine that at Google's size, they probably have recruiters just feeding people into the pipeline. I tend to assume people aren't just doing a shitty job, in thi
