Every time I hit an app like this I get sucked in, and start imaging myself as the next master of chiptunes. And then I want to make a game to use the music. And then the baby starts crying and I remember why my side projects falter before

I'm fairly sure that spammers are sending legitimate-lookingailing list type spam to do exactly this. Appear like misdirected mail to catch email addresses.

Is any of that necessary? Applying extra scrutiny to the president is not unusual.

My reading is just that there was documented demand and they likely lost talent over it.

I think the points about challenges or switching and the likely future of heterogeneous office/remote balances are all strong. Where this lost me was on this claim about salaries: > I suspect the multipliers companies use to determi

Proud to see a number of Canadian researchers and institutions on that list. I wish them all success in their work on this.

We tried this tonight for some Jackbox games and it worked great. Thanks so much!

There needs to be consistent and safe bike lanes first, including sharp enforcement against drivers who don't honour them. I made the same decision years ago at University. I'd much rather risk a ticket or minor pedestrian acciden

That is found in pretty much every TOS/PP on the internet, including my own. Do you have a specific problem with that language? If so, how do you use the internet? I don't mean that question in a "how do you even" sense.

This is so bizarre for me because it's like a flashback. I was seeing errors exactly like this in Firefox years ago, around 4-5 years or more I'd say. This was on windows 7 64bit with a probably outdated install because my favor

I actually don't care if it's viable. If preventing harm and trash on the third party marketplace makes it nonviable, then it shouldn't exist. Right now I try to avoid it, and I absolutely avoid buying anything for my baby th

Because disposable emails are trivially used by casual users and companies see phone number as harder to falsify (correctly, IMO). It's not impossible, obviously. We know SMS can be hijacked and spoofed, but the casual user won'

Hell, just be the hotel. If the other listing is fake anyways...

In your examples, the tomatoes were the flavour element you enjoyed, not the main caloric driver. That was the pasta (probably wheat). Your example agrees with the GP.

I also used to feel largely this way, but it turns out my parents just weren't good at cooking tasty vegetables. I encourage you to seek out an adventure by trying a vegetarian restaurant where the chefs know how to cook veggies. Truly

Maybe perhaps we could try to raise the level of discourse across the board? Why does it have to be a cess pool at all? We really have to do something to reduce the firehose of twitter/FB bots and trolls with no accountability. It&#x27

Walmart plays a heavy part in this game. They have such an outsized share of the market for Consumer Packaged Goods that they can bully manufacturers. When economics suggests the price of, say, some condiment needs to increase, Walmart simp

Do we even need spoofing at all anymore, are there legitimate uses which can't reasonably be resolved other ways?

This would be great. Push back voluntarily on bad actors.

THat's not right, the same is true of JS. You'd run a "build" step on a system you control to transpile your fancy modern JS back as far as you'd like official support and put the output JS file on your webserver. U

A service provider could check the API for the signup email and if previously compromised could challenge the signup with additional CAPTCHA steps to detect bot activity. They could check email+PW entered against leaked pairs and prevent yo

Then they should also be held responsible for the fallout (technical or financial) caused by an unpatched security bug. Then it's just a liability and risk choice for them. If the user is not able to update, then they shouldn't be

Beyond just a prevailing "view", this duty to public safety is actually explicitly codified in the laws and regulations of most professional engineering organizations. To act otherwise would be a) unethical and subsequently b) gro

Walmart is pulling the same crap on their website now, too. Tons of products lists sold by junk third party sellers. I get so frustrated every time I forget to add the "available in store" filter while searching. The results are u

I mean, you can do both. I would argue it is the responsibility of a good and just society to take care of all its members. You should still try to feed, house and treat that person even after poor decisions, but you should also have system

Honestly I don't understand why this is so hard to solve, unless amazon is willfully ignoring it. If the item is shipped by a third party directly, tracing the counterfeit origin is easy. It's the comingling at the Amazon fulfillm

The best part of this whole thing has been the airlines being forced to pull some older 787-800s off the bench for main route duty. They have so much more leg room in the old seat configuration. We had one trip where the window seat was abl

That's really awful. I hope you both are doing better gradually. How the hell was trading individually identifiable hospital admittance and treatment information not a HIPAA violation?

How are people supposed to make that decision if they are not armed with the information needed? If they only see the fake version, how will they know to even question it? Truth matters. News distributers are expected to fact check and shou
