(This is all to say that I 100% feel the same way.) I like getting feedback. I don't like when platforms try to smooth out the rough edges invisibly... they often end up in me experiencing breaking problems without my realizing I am ex

I don't work in the sector, but my imagination always figured that those one-or-two people would not-infrequently happen to be those (possibly actual r7) devs that write metasploit modules to arm all-colored hats.

This was my first thought. Commenters here are thoroughly entertained, but all I see are the efforts of people that mold the internet experience into what I have to deal with on a daily basis. They would make great additions to AI and CAPTC

IMHO, that sounds like more effort than configuring Emacs to map a CPU temperature rise to a Ctrl keypress. I'd rather begrudgingly keep taking advantage of Google's spam filter over adopting the added workflow branch that is perc

What a day to forget my wallet at home. I wonder if this is preventing me from adding my card to GPay, because I am getting this exact error.

I guess it really did depend on the mood and demeanor of whatever technician got sent out on a given day. Back in those same years, it was a painful, nonstop pendulum swing every month-or-two, between a) cripplingly unusable internet, and b

I think their point (in this discussion here) can make sense and remain true to the point (made in the example statement) by adjusting the feedback segue to something like "I really [appreciate that] you tackled this".

I mean, looking at those tweets myself, i wouldn't bat an eye at the receiver paraphrasing either one of them years later as racism or mansplaining, respectfully; sounds accurate to me (I guess, with their watered down meanings, since

To flesh out this response with a common way to do this, the free tier of ngrok will likely help someone accomplish this, by running it on the server to get a routable endpoint to your ssh port (wouldn't hurt to further lock it down wi

Right. It feels silly to point out specific things when just about everything about these verification checks deployed by every megacorp throws you into a universe of suffering. If there's a place to start, it would be with eliminating

Self-reply; response was a bit kneejerk. I think the rhetoric in my last statement needn't be as cynical. After all, I've only just started looking at all at these AI chat developments and still have loads to explore.
