We were trying to avoid the use of a captcha; originally believing that our API infrastructure was the target. A captcha did end up being the solution, but is not particularly user friendly, and I was also trying to avoid pulling developers

We've been hit by this exact issue, especially over the last month. We tried to mitigate as cleanly as possible for our users, adding one-time nounces to signup requests, adding rate-limiting rules, locking down regions, but we still f

Almost as if graduate research and professors are required to build an environment for high-value undergraduate studies. The distribution of fees is far from ideal, but your complaint should not be directed towards those that literally def

Where are people getting these insane reads of GDPR. Any bit of entropy is not going to violate GDPR. First, an active client-server connection is required for any kind supposed "identity" contained here, which would of course inc

There's no liquidity. The market cap is pure fabrication based on historical sales, there's no current day sales, so no way to pull money out of that cap.

Unless the recession is large enough to end the concept of commerce, advertising is not going anywhere. People will continue to buy things, it’s just that what those things are may shift.

You're not. I hold a C level position, I create more value than I capture. These positions are not loss leaders, the organization (in aggregate) ends up ahead.

You will never be paid what a job is "worth". You will (in aggregate) always be paid what the market demands. Value creation needs to be >> value extraction. I don't believe many companies can compete with Google on sal

I'm not advocating for this from an engineering perspective, just stating that it does meet the semantic root of `CI`, regardless of whether you believe it meets _your_ threshold of "good" CI.

by CaveTech 5y ago
Yes, through `EXPLAIN`.

by CaveTech 5y ago
That's `automated CI` which is now or less interchanged with just `CI`, however at face value there is no requirement that all CI be automated, it is just usually better to do so.

I take issue with the conflation of Performance Advertising with Awareness Advertising. The whole point of _performance_ advertising is that it's effect is _measurable_. If AirBnB spent $500m+ on performance advertising, they should be

OP is referring to phashes aka perceptual hashes, where closest hashes should indeed indicate similarity.

1) It’s an article talking about optimizing transactions, I think it’s fair to assume prior knowledge about what a transaction is. The author is not responsible for rebuilding the world. 2) They have a very specific, narrow band problem whi

ETL's are a hell hole. Another ETL charges per unique primary key synced, ignoring the fact the systems with append-only databases could move the exact same _volume_ of objects as another system, but cost 100 or 1000x more because of a

This is blind trust, you are relying spotting wrong doing after it happens, at which point you would already be compromised.

I'm not sure what OP is referring too, because their prices for the supported services previously started in the mid six figure range for them to not ghost you.

I believe NCSI probes are also purposefully HTTP because captive portals MITM all traffic to force authentication. If it was HTTPS the probe would fail with a certificate error. The whole point is that the url can be hijacked. This is not r

If you repay your card at the end of the billing period you do not incur interest. I ask this because if you were truthfully resetting to a $0 balance, your credit card was free. This is a common misconception.

by CaveTech 5y ago
If you were bringing the balance back to 0, it would not be cheaper than using a credit card. What am I missing?

If it's still super abstract, you're likely pre-MVP. If you're investing time in R&D, you should know what you _want_ to accomplish, even if you don't necessarily know how to get there yet. Some products need to be t

You'll have to store more information, you just need to decide what is more space efficient. A possible approach would be to store both the bucket total, as well as the components to an equation that can roughly model the rate of chang
