The costs of some things have indeed plummeted. It still costs a lot of money to eg. close off city streets, hire cranes, ensure 200 cast and crew are in the right places at the right times with the right skills and equipment. Also market

In general when features get made for that kind of money, it means the production values are low and everybody is working for nothing or low rates in the hope it'll help them get paid work in future. It's shockingly easy to find f

There's http://neuralstyle.com/ , based on different code that does a similar thing . It's quite GPU intensive so it takes a while and I think the free options are limited.

Cyberferret refers to "the opening riff to Johnny B Goode", which is extremely similar to the opening riff from Ain't That Just Like a Woman. For some reason the link I pasted started several seconds in, which might be causin

And most who associate that riff with Chuck Berry aren't aware of this 1946 version of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEqiWTb-UWA Edit: Fixed link

Ok now I have to do some embarrassing backtracking. In a clean profile I don't get the problem. Sorry for publicly whining about your product, which apparently works fine. I'm not sure what I've done to make it not work here,

Actually no, it shows me as logged in (I can see the logout link). Whereas with the site I'm working on locally, I get the login page. curl with appropriate options copied from firefox gets me the full page. I don't know why I get

by Joeboy 10y ago
Yes that works, although it generates an option that my curl doesn't like (--1.0) so I have to edit that out (or find the option to change it in FF). Better than the strategy I suggested, but still a lot clunkier than Ctrl-U. Grumble.

I think that gets the post-js version of the page, although I'm not 100% sure.

The problem I have right now is that when I view the source of a page I'm working on, I get the source of the login page instead. I don't think that is justifiable behaviour.

As far as I know the way to get the unmodified source in the Developer tools is to find the html request in the Network tab, click on it, go to the Response tab of the small panel on the right and read the source out of said small panel (it

Doesn't mention if the major problem I have with Firefox 51 is fixed. It makes a new, unauthenticated request every time I do View Source rather than showing the source of the page I'm looking at, which is an extreme PITA. If View

To be fair this is HN and that's undoubtedly true of most startups. But from my experience large, established, boring companies spend a lot of money on covering themselves against this sort of thing. Or at least on CYA security rituals

Since you ask, I think a neglected part of the solution might lie in getting businesses to communicate securely. Unlike individuals, businesses actually care quite a lot if their data leaks. I think maybe people have wasted a lot of time tr

by Joeboy 10y ago
I'm not sure you can really blame the consumers. All products claim to be "secure", and consumers have no way of knowing what is and isn't secure. Plus of course security isn't a binary and all security solutions

The problem is that other web designers will laugh at you and kick sand in your face. Possibly in front of your clients.
