The old web to me was mostly just not populated by people trying to make money off of it. The whole transformation stems from there.

This makes sense, since there won’t be a community left to have a call with if they don’t get their shit together.

Why would that surprise you? I think the opposite opinion is a lot more surprising. One in every 50 children in Gaza was killed by the Israeli military. That’s like killing a child in every second classroom in the US…

I don’t necessarily expect them to know what resides within their borders, I merely expect them to act against atrocities. It is no accident that all this data was located in the Netherlands.

some muslims believe it is acceptable to kill children. These are individuals. The israeli democratically elected government feels it is acceptable to children, and has, for the past two years employed a campaign of systematic destruction

It bothers me more that it was held in the Netherlands than that it was held on Azure servers. It’s a fucking disgrace to any government to be facilitating anything like this, and the Netherlands seems extra complicit.

The best frauds have a dash of truth to them. Mr. Beast is one of those.

No, it’s like owning a bank and leaving your vault door open, then blaming people that take something out. Yes, it’s still technically illegal, but it’s also an unforgivably stupid thing to do as a bank. It’s like that commercial building h

I mean, it was obvious to me they couldn’t have been able to pull $10k of money per video at the start. Maybe now, with 400M subscribers that would work just fine.

That's hilarious. I can only imagine landing there in a helicopter and it being used as a free additional show for all the kids there.

Maybe just don’t be part of a GitHub organization that can take over your shit if you don’t want them to. We really need a GitHub feature where maintainers can enter an organization but still retain ultimate control over their repository an

I think MrBeast is a very good way to tell my child that “not everything you see on the internet is true”, cue the “But why would he lie?”, “Because he wants you to keep watching his videos.” Even if 215M in revenue on chocolate bars sugges

Except every audit firm that’s ever passed by my company. Like, the reason these requests get honored is because people have been conditioned to think madness is normal.

It’s so weird. I can never bring myself to truly blame the hacker in these instances. If you can call up a random company as an 18 year old, and do anything that costs them $100-200M that’s the fault of the company. If you decided to stick

Couldn’t you make this safer by passing the map something that’s not a plain JS function? I confess to that being the only thing that had me questioning the logic. If I can express everything, then everything should work. If it’s not going

But that is a question that should be escalated to management right? If they charge the customer enough that allowing them to make 1.3M requests to update 60 entities makes sense, why not let them? If they want the service stupidly overpr

No, it shows that you previously had a job title that calls you a doer of things. I find that these don’t generally correlate with ability to actually do those things.

We don’t need drones for that. There’s plenty of Jordanian airdrops that confirm the destruction just fine: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/aug/05/wasteland-rubb...

Why would it matter what your previous job title was? Why would I care if your previous job title was ‘Grand Vizier of Khyrgistan’? Can you do the job I want you to do now?
