That seemed like the gist of it. I wasn't surprised that it was OCR'ing text, but I was floored that it recognized a URL and started firing off requests.

If the URL was https://myurl.com/some/thing/here I started seeing: https://myurl.com/s https://myurl.com/so https://myurl.com/som https://myurl.com&#x2

It's even easier than that, just use ngrok. I recorded a demo video of a web interface running locally via ngrok. Left the tunnel up while the video uploaded to YouTube so I could send it privately to a colleague and during processing

I took a client's online store gross sales from ~$15K per year to over $250K per year and I can tell you for sure, capturing sales from abandoned carts is very real. Your reasons and actions don't reflect online costumers as a who

I went to a Jesuit university and was required to take a certain number of credits in religious courses, so I looked over the catalogue and chose the most interesting and less mainstream options, like classes on Yoga and Buddhism. One of th

On one hand congrats to the person who registered the channel name "status" - anyone Googling "youtube status" right now might land on their channel. On the other hand if Youtube is down then anyone landing on this perso

There's really not much to automate. The Gitlab CI/CD config file to build Hugo and publish to Pages is always the same so I just re-use it as boilerplate. Likewise the Netlify config is usually the same as well, so once you'

The first thing I do for every project is set up a development blog. Hugo + a nice free theme + Gitlab Pages + Netlify CMS. Everything is contained in Gitlab and I can keep the Pages site private and only accessible by members of the repo.

It takes about 20 min and minimal technical abilities to set up a Google App Script attached to a Sheet which can accept a POST and do literally anything with the submitted data. Obvious is to save it to the Sheet but you can also tap into

She's short because she is only getting MQDs for the ticket she paid for, not the class she flew. It's usually pretty easy to hit the miles and dollars levels at the same time unless you are consistently getting deals or buying di

You’re using the terms backup and snapshot interchangeably but they are not the same thing. Snapshots are images and require your droplet to be powered down. Which service are you providing?

It's likely something similar to how mechanical broadheads work. The blades are situated so that in flight they are held closed with a small plastic retaining ring but on impact with the target the blades cam open. It's very low-t

Per project is dangerous. Consulting clients will change their minds frequently and you'll want to give them the latitude to do so, which means you simply can't estimate the time needed to complete a project without adding X00% on

Sure, because that totally would never be abused to facilitate illegal payments or to launder funds.

Most android cameras recognize QR codes. Chrome has a QR code scanner built in, look for the icon at the top of the keyboard. Facebook has also had a scanner in their app for quite a while but of course that’s not native to Android.

I literally set one of these up last night with a Pi 4 and the longest step was dd’ing Raspbian Buster Lite to the SD card. Only real gotcha in setup is remember to set up SSH before booting if you’re going headless. Everything else is supe

Nope, this is pretty common. I found out the hard way that Delta doesn’t allow access to their servers from my cloud hosted VPN, which is shitty considering airports are pretty VPN-heavy locations for me. They don’t seem interested in recon

The assumption that all users are treated equally is debatable for reasons others have discussed, but what is missing here is the consideration for Twitter's algorithm sort and their continual efforts to force this on users. Even if we

Well, if we had the tail number we could see where it's been and work backwards from there.

At what scale has this been tested? As in, are you aware of any data file size limits? I have a csv with ~6M rows and when paging through the docs the "Exploring your data source" gave me pause thinking this app might try and open

They could require all suppliers to put up a surety bond. Make the amount high enough to filter out suppliers unwilling to sell long-term and also attempt to filter out anyone intending to sell counterfeit goods. Any suppliers who hit a cer

So do those consequences you mention suddenly disappear if you're _actually_ sick? The fixation on "abuse" and that it can be easily determined doesn't make sense.

What does "improper" mean and who gets to decide what actions are improper? Paid days are paid days and just because they have a certain name doesn't change a thing. Has anyone ever been accused of faking a vacation? Of cours

You're misreading, I'm not suggesting anyone fake being sick.

We seem to believe that sick always means some type of physical illness that means we can't work, which is completely wrong. Taking a sick day for mental health is totally OK. Taking a sick day to deal with a sick child or spouse or s.

I can't speak on the Kenyan project you linked, but I did recently complete a 3000 tree habitat project. Even at bulk rates we purchased our trees at between $0.80-0.90 per tree. It took 3 people about 5-6 hours to complete the actual
