I'm an enjoyer of anonymity online and would rather not doxx myself. However if you have a specific question, I'd be happy to answer. I use js/jq for the front-end and php for the backend. Once you have your own CMS, turning

Every time a client makes me implement google analytics or facebook pixel code I die a little inside. And even though some actually use google ads, they have zero benefit from using analytics. I know, because I'm the one adjusting thei

I would argue that quite the opposite is the case. I'm sorry we disagree on such a basic level. My argument: weather balloons exist and have for decades; US authorities knew right away there was no spying equipment,because they had acc

Yes, I have just searched through CNNs archives. Apparently CNN has never accused China of using balloons to spy on the US. Apparently we were always at war with Eurasia.

Interesting how fake stories about Chinese balloons can linger in US media for weeks, fuelling racist ideologies, while actually vital stories like this are almost completely censored out of the public eye. There's the us-vs-them menta

Aren't QR codes just a fundamentally flawed system due to how much easier they make phishing attacks?

A few years back I bought a new Motorolla phone(for the replaceable battery) from the official Motorolla US Amazon store. I received a broken device with the packaging seal broken and the antenna not working at all. It was clearly a previou

You are correct. The 700B is mostly wages and R&D, I take it. The 100bil throws me off because knowing Germany just spent 100bil on just one order of F-35s, that are being discussed here. Not being contrarian, just making a point, I bel

Curious. What percentage of the US industry is weapons manufacturing? Where can I find that information?

I believe if a concentrated effort was made on social media to censor all talk of "round earth theories" (the exception being posts that are sufficiently dogpiled and ridiculed, to be made example of), creating a fake display of g

In my opinion the main reason the Soviet economy collapsed (apart from outside pressure), was the state owned sector wide monopolies. It is also in the webs own nature to nurture monopolies for two seemingly contradictory reasons: 1.) Swit

I believe you. And good for you. Now take that thought that made you unsubscribe from their default sub one step further and reevaluate if it's worth supporting such a company in any form.

Those threads were at the top of /r/worldnews for months. Each week the old one would be deleted and a new one posted. Everyone has seen them. Why are people pretending they weren't there? Because no one is going to admit the

When you hear something outrageous on FOX or CNN, you yell "bullshit" at the TV. When you read the same thing on Facebook and see 20 of your friends positively interacting with the news story and showing their approval, you remain

Textbook fraud, yes. But it's a tool that also the big players with deep pockets would like to continue using. People look the other way, because the alternative is admitting, that there is a serious corrup.. lobbying problem. A realis

Because I have better things to do than writing pages on political debate, rich with links and sources, only to have them shadow-hidden and not seen by anyone. Happens regularly on this forum... I would go on, but discussions on moderation

I am assuming the "understanding" part would be accelerated as well. Either by enhancing or replacing it with artificial parts.

I always found this strategy of telling your debate partner what they believe, then mocking them for it, remarkably wide spread on a technical forum, considering how juvenile and unproductive it is.
