Unfortunately I don't think most people will care. The vast majority of users don't comment, and few ever figure out if they or their submissions are shadow banned. If someone tries to make a replacement that fixes all the issues

I don't understand how their javascript based miner is feasible. Mining bitcoins with a CPU is an extremely futile endeavor, and on top of that, it is implemented in asm.js. Even with thousands of workers, GPU and ASIC mining is anywhe

This looks like a standard crack-me. Most programmers don't need to know how to do this. As it says in the blog he is applying for a security position. It all comes down to how well you can translate assembly code.

What I want to know is how rich he needed to be to get all that hardware to review. If I had access to all that hardware I might have done something like that as well.

Not to be a downer, but I don't see how this is any better than a real firewall like Comodo. If you cannot block new connections, it is likely the valuable information on your computer has been siphoned off, or glasswire bypassed befor

Well I saw it pop up twice within a matter of minutes. Popups cause a huge break in my concentration especially when I am coding so it is unusable to me.

It is essentially the same thing in terms of competition for labor. In one case you are sending the work to the workers, in the other, you are bringing the workers to the work. Competition within the country is fair. Companies exploiting th

I still found it more awkward to do things like access JSON in Go.

Maybe because of license issues? Windows also uses more resources.

I had the same feeling when people suggested using completely random UUIDs for things like cookies and transactions.

The weather is much nicer in the Bay Area, and people don't look down on you if you are living on ramen while your investment bank buddies are raking it in.

Jank is a slang word. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/10303816/Derp-YOLO-and-Ja... They seemed to not know about proper terminology such as jitter.

Well let's see. - The surplus of males in Silicon Valley is a rather well known thing. NYC has the opposite problem. - CS/Engineering majors also have this problem. - Many in the tech industry label themselves as having aspergers.

Well first of all, the game appeared to be playable, so there's the piracy aspect. The Source engine is also licensed to other games. If the code is public, other engines could copy their features. Also it is very annoying to re-secure

I don't feel sorry for malware writers. They are not oppressed and deserve what they got. And this guy also stole people's software keys. If they were talented coders, they could've found less destructive ways to make money.
