This would be perfectly fine if they provided a refund, adjusted for inflation. I'm quite surprised that they haven't, it seems so obviously necessary to me.

I remember the first and only time I used browser stack, almost 10 years ago. I found myself logged into the Google account of somebody else. I could freely access their email, drive files, everything. I had reported this to them, and they

Can anybody share their setup using 64GB macs? I have an M2 Ultra studio and I'm trying Qwen 3.5 MLX models hosting them from the CLI, but I'm a bit stuck picking bigger models, more context, 4/8 bits, Opus-Reasoning-Distille

Adguard works great. UBlock on Firefox also does the job.

Seems to me that the most important questions have barely been asked (I saw just one scrolling through that Twitter feed, unanswered): 1) Was any work done during time paid by the company? 2) Also, but I'd be flexible with this one, wa

When evaluating whether to buy something: is it worth the amount of hours of work that took me to be able to afford it? I know roughly how much money I make per hour (money into my bank account every year / how many days I work every y

I think this is due to where you are on the path of learning English, and maybe because people feel more comfortable asking to repeat something when you are talking amongst not natives. Also not natives speak slower. Comes a point where you

First "bug" raised this morning about naked domain not redirecting to www... SEO departments in my experience still insists that the www subdomain is necessary (e.g. they have no idea so better not touch it), yet Google instead of

I've had Audio-Technica ATH-M50X at work for around 5 years and despite having used them most working days they still look mostly new, and are quite comfortable for my (large) head. Never had a set with NC, so maybe I don't know w

None taken. Believe it or not I'm mostly on your side. I published this because I've managed to do this in 4 hours, for fun. It exploits the url based blocking which is so prominent but so easily subverted, and If I've done i

I checked the analytics dashboard yesterday and updated the website: the only data that I'm not getting though is the users country/city and their provider. So in a sense it's better for your privacy: the IP is not your own!

I would be interested in knowing myself. From my analytics dashboard I can tell you that I get some browser data, like language. But I'm not sure if it's safer for the users, or the data is any worse for the tracker! The cookies w

You think? Looking at my dashboard now I can see data on language, browser, mobile model, referral, etc. I think some are just not present in the mobile version of analytics, but I can't see what data this would not be collecting. >

As described, rather than disabling js you may want to look into something more complicated, because if you do then the <noscript> side is going to kick in. I think the noscript solution offers less data collection but can still be re

Interesting, do you know if they rely on the same principle of using several domains, making it harder to block?

It's a proof of concept. If it doesn't work for you then you are meant to know that :) It's not a bug, it's a feature!

That's interesting, and good to know! I wonder if the heuristic can be bypassed by changing the code (e.g. adding a semicolon) or changing the URL further.

Could you please expand on fudging numbers and fraud filters? The original question that I was trying to answer was if the numbers that I was seeing for mobile users were skewed by how much more difficult it is to get an ad blocker for mobi
