Well, the other side of it is that, imho, the adblocker has no reason to purposefully expose itself. I was not commenting on the ethics of adblock, just the fact that sloppy checks and sloppy code are a bad thing. I personally don'

Interestingly, adblockers should be careful about doing stuff like this, as lots of sites would love a check as simple as "make a request to /twitter-sponsered-ad-paid and deny access if it fails"

heh, as a pen tester, please leave your computer unlocked 24/7. It makes it so much easier to take over your entire network after I've gotten into your office by cloning a RFID badge, or heck, just tailing someone through the doo

So so agree. Did the designers not look at the page after they put it up? The white text on red and white plaid tablecloth one was even worse!

wow, $33,000 15 years ago? That really puts a spin on me making $36,000 6 months ago, working in 4 languages and 2 platforms to build a really complicated SPA web app and mac flash content player system. Glad I got out of that job!

It in no way resembles an XU4, and if that is the "pro", I'll be disgusted, as that's not a solid 8 core. 4 of the cores are vastly underpowered compared to the other 4(All other things being equal, a cortex-A15 is abou

From the video, at least one model looks disturbingly similar to the ODroid-U3: http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code... They say it has gigabit ethernet though, and the specs don't qu

heh, I have a note 4, with an integrated stylus. I love the thing. I'm more accurate and faster typing on the keyboard with it then I am with my thumbs, and it's a toss when swype style stuff guesses right. If I have to reswype

Loading doesn't matter as much as display does. You pretty much have to alter the DOM to show your ad, and we already have the ability to mess with the DOM.

But realistically, the 2 are intrinsically linked. I'd be interested in something like this that actually did something about piracy. I've built the systems myself, so I know it can be done, but it's annoying to maintain.

Interestingly, growing up, I thought a second set of pipes for "non-potable" or reclaimed water was standard. Where I grew up in Florida, every lawn was watered with reclaimed water. According to their website[1], Florida is cur

Personally, the approach Peel is taking irritates me. Forces me to select a tv antenna/cable profile thing, when that's useless to me. I have no antenna, I have no cable, I just use a roku with netflix. Why does it have to be s

Ride the elevator out to geosync, and you'd be in orbit for free. Ride it past there and let go, and you'd end up flying away from the earth. Time it right and you could end up traveling to the moon or to mars for little to no f

Most(almost all) Elevators in the US have to comply with the ADA codes. One of those is that the doors have to be open for a certain amount of time, period. During this time, the "close" button is required to have no effect. Af

That's odd, cause I just left a job where I was juggling 4 programming languages on a weekly bases (AS3, Go, PHP, JS) and I was getting paid shit (sub 50k). I tried and tried to find a programming job, but nobody wanted me, so I ended

If you want to be that pedantic, there is little difference between a monitor and a printer. There are a lot of configuration differences between 3d printers and normal.

by Vendan 11y ago
meh, the only similarities between 3d printers and "normal" printers is the word printer in the name and the fact that they are output devices. 3d printers have much more in common with 3 axis CNC machines then with printers. In

It seems like you are working towards a "everyone put their social stuff on their own site" model, which really lines up with the indiewebcamp ideal. I would recommend looking at https://indiewebcamp.com/webaction
