A lot of internet payments work this way already anyways, not many gateways require auth before capture, processors/payfacs just do it because it gives lower interchange and reduces risk.

I don’t really think this holds the point you think it does. While property crime is more likely to be committed by people the lower their income level is, the majority of all violent crime is committed by people who have homes. In fact, th

That does make sense, but I'm not sure why it was worth sharing.

Yes, quite the opposite. It did remind me of the old days though, when you could do the opposite and "hotlink" pictures from most websites and save yourself bandwidth costs!

The post seems to be written by a developer that has never heard of caching and thinks they have invented some illicit solution by implementing it. It makes very little sense - They don't want to ask users to trust Google's domain

Wow, this is one of the most well written cryptography articles I've ever seen. I consider myself a fairly experienced software engineer with a moderate amount of professional experience in private sector encryption, so I'm not co

This reads like someone AI-generated prose to defend something they want to invest in and decry something it competes with. It does not come off as honest, written by a human, or useful to anyone outside of the specific, narrow contexts the

Skipping breakfast absolutely causes a noticeable drop in energy for most people. Especially if you work an intellectually demanding job. That blood glucose is important. Also of note given the OP’s subject, several studies show that people

Oh man there goes my access to my old college email from 14 years ago that for some reason never got deactivated, just web login restricted.

The line “news stories will be generated” throws up red flags across the horizon for me. That’s not news. That’s news-adjacent random slop.

Yeah I do not see why this is worthy of interest. Gold is pretty much always appreciating.

What a silly thing to say in an era where anonymity is under constant attack by forces that want to harm us all.

I feel like the same is true of a lot of products that moved from being programmatically connected ML workflows to multi-modal AI. We, the consumer, have received inferior products because of the vague promise that the company might one day

I actually didn't ever realize that some people dreaded code reviews. To me, PRs are one of the most exciting parts of the process. That's where you have the most potential to learn from your colleagues and/or teach them some

I really have no interest in using a Chromium/Blink browser at this point, that's the real kicker for me. I would prefer to use and support browsers using alternate rendering engines and without any ties back to Google, even if it

Sorry, I think my comment was not clear. I think allowing both setting and reading of variables directly in the configuration file is a problem. Not reading variables that have been set outside of the configuration file alone.

Obviously they are very useful. I still don't think they should exist in this usage of yaml. Once you allow setting and reading of variables in a configuration file, you lose the safety that makes the format useful. You might as well

> These models are only going to get better and cheaper per watt. What do you base this claim on? They have only gotten exponentially more expensive for decreasing gain so far - quite the opposite of what you say.

Unless you are advocating for executing developers when they are no longer capable of working, that’s a bit of a non sequitur. Humans aren’t tools.

I think it’s less about culture and more about the world around us. Who has time to work on free open source projects when your bills and groceries cost far more than they did 10 years ago? The kind of money that being a developer made me i

After a few years of experience with them I agree for the most part. They are great for individual projects and even as individual servers for certain loads, but once you start clustering them you will probably get better results from a pur

My outlook is "Sometimes if you have ambition and opportunity, you may be the person that can make things better." I have made no claim or assertion other than that. If that's not realistic to you, then I sincerely and genuin

This feels at first glance like another instance of an AI tool doing something humans already enjoy doing, rather than replacing work we'd like to avoid. The teachers and professor I've known have always loved adapting their lesso

If they were excited to make a difference at a big tech company and gave up in a year, it sounds like they didn't understand what they were getting into at all. Goals take time.

Nobody ever changes anything and new hires should have no aspirations or goals but to be code monkeys. Your outlook on career growth is nihilistic, not realistic.

That's why I gave other examples :)

If you ever get the chance, maybe you can be the one that improves that process some day. Even if it's standard among tech giants, you could be the one that makes a new standard! Good luck in your new role, btw.

New? “wearable camera with headphones” is not exactly groundbreaking. Even a new model with a screen would only be semi-new, other AR glasses have existed for over a decade - with Apple releasing a consumer-focused product last year.

But it does just have a ton of bugs - or just straight up missing features that are available in every other window manager on every operating system.
