Without "luring players with profit" isn't it just a video game? What makes it web3? What features require a blockchain?

You should take a look at your mysql settings e.g. `innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit` but yeah mysql isn't really built for frequent sudden shutdowns.

Seems pretty obvious that record labels can give Spotify money to promote specific tracks into people's Discovery Mode and other playlists. Aka Payola. https://www.unionofmusicians.org/justice-at-spotify-demands

They no longer use it for ads, so the value now is just fraud and security. > if it's just to prevent bot signups, why keep it on file at all? I mean, you need the actual number for 2FA. I guess maybe you could hash it after some

Requiring a phone number is part of fraud & spam prevention. Maybe you'd make a different tradeoff but that's not "no reason."

You can sign up for a Twitter account with a Twilio number? I'd be surprised

yeah they’d probably ban Rust if a sizable percentage of the Rust usage was to avoid NK sanctions

Well, they were unable or unwilling to prevent North Korea from using the service to launder money, which is illegal

But couldn't the NSA still spy on European cloud providers and domain registrars?

As is a fully independent EU alternative. I support reigning in the NSA, GDPR seems like a weird way to do it. I don't follow the logic.

Isn't it easier for the NSA to spy on foreign companies than US companies? There are restrictions on how they can operate on US soil.

Gyms are terrible and often do sneaky things to take your money. But if you agree to a one year contract then you shouldn't be able to get out of it by just not paying.

Seems the goalposts shifted. Now cars only follow the rules at the “most dangerous” intersections? They all seem pretty dangerous for a pedestrian in the crosswalk. My city actually does have stop sign cameras, a relative rarity in the stat

Your source is a tabloid article and it does not appear to actually show a per-mile statistic. Where are you getting that from?

by eli 4y ago
> only because there are more, but cars have to actually follow safety guidelines when they are designed to reduce risks for pedestrians being hit. I challenge you to pick any stop sign in your neighborhood and count how many cars come

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketing_mix_modeling got big in the 1980s. It's always been pretty important for marketers to know what channels work and what ones don't. Mail order ads used to list different

No, I'm saying those situations aren't comparable. We should not conclude librarians will be poor stewards of MFA reset powers just because they are lax in giving out library cards.

I agree that social services should be administered in a way that helps people succeed instead of constructing barriers to benefits... But is your position really that losing access to your email isn't a big deal with real-world conseq

Make it a choice. It sure sounds like the patrons of this library would opt in.

It's supposed to be easy to get a library card! The threat of an out-of-towner getting a local library card is nothing like a stranger getting access to your inbox.

The justification for wearing seatbelts is they save lives in a crash and yet fatal car crashes are common. Does this prove seatbelts don’t work?
867.
by eli 4y ago
How does that prove it's not working?
868.
by eli 4y ago
I mean, yeah. We don’t have to pretend it’s in good faith. This is obviously calibrated to make the union card sound as scary as possible while (they hope) stopping just short of being illegal interference.

This makes it sound like the judge is an outlier. The situation doesn't come up very often. Most people who sign binding agreements to buy something intend to buy it. The face that she previously dealt with it is funny though.

Seems like a management problem when one employee is expending huge effort to keep the enterprise running.
