I wonder how much of a human element is involved in each individual hack. I would have thought the sticky note, encryption, payment & decryption was all automated.

NBA also does this for League Pass. A simple work around is to use a VPN to connect from India and buy with rupees. You have to sign in again with VPN each time though when loading a video, disconnect from VPN and then refresh.

I think around half the properties are owner occupied, it wouldn’t make sense to have locks in your own house just because you’re hosting a guest.

A leetcode thing? Most of leetcode solutions I've seen are terse and over optimised for a specific problem, don't think I've seen any functional programming when I was doing them.

To each their own...it helped me look at lab diamonds differently. I've always assumed they were somehow chemically inferior to the real ones, maybe compromised tensile strength or something.

Thanks for the story, that was a very good analogy by your prof.

Agreed 100%. Should be merged with UPS. I also believe NBA should be nationalised. All teams should be owned by cities and revenues used to fund schools etc

Google Cloud is just a pleasure to use. It has by far the best documentation, the best user interface, the best CLIs (gcloud etc) and tooling, and they have the most accessible teams of any of the other cloud providers. I remember having an

100% agree. Customers do not know or care whether Stripe is being used to process their credit card transactions. There is zero brand loyalty on their side. And merchants absolutely will switch in a heartbeat if there was an existing servic

This may be a dumb question, but is there any reason why these crime groups don't just use Signal? I understand a phone number is required upon registration but a burner sim could be used and discarded for that purpose.

The answer to these types of questions usually boil down to: Google wants to improve the web experience for everyone. They are the biggest benefactor of the web today, so it makes sense they have the most to gain the more pleasant the web e

Why do you say that? I found it extremely readable and is how I learnt Go in the first place. Curious to know your reasons though.

I recommend the Mattermost server: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server And I disagree with those that say stdlib is the best way of looking at the best Go code for two reasons: 1. A lot of times stdlib code

This is a really bad take. Plaid is a 'monopoly' just as much as Stripe is. There is nothing stopping a company from doing the hard work of integrating thousands of banks using a single API. Furthermore, the fees Plaid charges are
