Section 3.2 'Advancing fingerprinting' shows some more ways you can find particularities which will be hard to hide.

Unless two browsers are identical there's almost always a way to detect some particularity.

Would you ever listen to somebody giving a 2 hour monologue? To blindly give somebody that much power over your attention span? I rather not. Get to the point or stop wasting my time. It's why I hardly read books. Just give me the sect

It makes sense to use a programming language for the rule logic. I'm just suggesting you need to conceptually separate the software code from the rule code. Have the rule code in a separate repository that can be deployed independently

Sell 5 random surprise books for $15 (ex shipping). Include a box to send back any books they don't want (or any other book). Process returned books (take pictures, put barcode, register title+author). For the next order give $3 discou

In this particular case you should probably implement some logging or alternative output that shows how the rules are being applied. Also perhaps the rules shouldn't be part of the code itself. It would be preferable to be able to add&

On a similar note: I once did a project entirely in notepad. This really forces you to write clean, readable, well organized code. I don't have anything against debuggers. I do - however - have a concern with people who rely heavily on

For some languages it's more about providing features for the IDE and less about providing features for the language itself. It's probably the main reason Microsoft started working on TypeScript for example.

You choose your beliefs. Not your genes. That's the problem with racism. Genes are not a thing you can hold someone accountable for.

Perhaps. Yet anytime a user clicks "no" to cookies it means Google won't be able to show targeted ads. But I'm purely speculating here.

The outcome can only be as good as the sum of its part. The best methodology with the worst people will still result in a poor outcome. The best people with the worst methodology might still manage do deliver something useful. The best outc

Perhaps the new cookie regulations are specifically hurting Google's display network ads. Facebook and Amazon are perhaps less affected.

The problem with IE was that it wasn't standards compliant. Oftentimes it seemed they even did so on purpose. Chrome appears to follow the standards nicely. We don't need quirks mode settings to render websites "designed for

That makes total sense to me. Having engineers in charge of the challenges that require engineering.

And not forget to fire those other managers who never wrote a single line of code. Or anyone who thinks in terms like 'programmers' and 'resources'.

Perhaps a solution would be to allow the browser to share a "fingerprint" with specific websites. To make a trusted connection. The website would know if a trusted connection exists for the user and deny all login attempts coming

I'm surprised how these traditional organizational structures still exist so strongly today. It sometimes feels like the whole agile/lean revolution (with self-managed teams) never happened.
