"The microscopic parameter changes [are] inherent in every print" seems like a weak argument for claiming that the article is garbage science. No two fingerprints are pixel-perfect, and DNA samples can get damaged, but this doesn&

Crucially, gig workers do not own an important part of their means of production: the platform that processes rides/rentals/etc, payments and users, which allows the traditional bourgeois to extract surplus value (Mehrwert) in the

The author uses a silly definition of rebel, which nobody realistically uses (precisely because there are no thus-defined "rebels"). As a result, the article is rather inconsequential.

It's hard to tell, to be fair. We don't know whether a React version of Gmail (equally maintained etc.) would use more or less RAM.

How is the fault for low wages on the worker, and not the employer? Why is the employer granted the freedom to push unlivable wages, rather than the worker being granted the right to be paid livable wages?

If you only need a shell, adb does that, as well as blazing fast file transfer (for the standards of MTP).

They're imposing Facebook's moral indeed: racism is bad, but not if it's from a famous person that makes your social network relevant.

The logistical inefficiencies of dealing with tariffs are arguably a minor component when evaluating free trade, since they account for a small fraction of the total value of goods.

To add on this, clang-tidy is a tool specifically for static code analysis. I don't know if it implements all the checks mentioned in the article, but it is quite powerful, being able to detect eg. array overruns through several layers

That's a good example of why permissions should be opt-in, not opt-out. I recently developed an ElasticSearch plugin and I was positively surprised at the security model: plugins have to declare the permissions they intend to use and t

Is it really a problem, though? Having a high false-positive-to-real-positive ratio isn't as bad for this application, since a user can just pick a slightly different password, with no significant negative outcome.

The P2P approach is interesting. Do you have data on how much bandwidth is saved at peak usage? It might be especially interesting when many users share the same connection, effectively achieving broadcasting - the CDN pushes the data to on

Since it's a static website, with a little effort you can have it cost virtually nothing (less than the domain, probably). S3 and Route53 can go a long way.

I agree with the general feeling, but for the DNS issue specifically you can use iptables' DNAT if you're root. It is unlikely that Google went as far as bypassing iptables just to use their DNS. Example usage: iptables -t n
