Couldn't google just hit the URL randomly themselves to throw off tracking, even if the email was never opened?

From what I've heard, trimming a large jet engine plane by hand is physically difficult, even if you manage to disable the MCAS system. Additionally, I believe the core issue is that pilots were meant to fly these plans without additio

I believe it gives them a reason to conduct a search, but that still should not include compelling someone to disclose a password, which should be protected by the fifth amendment against self-incrimination.

I guess the corollary would be a baker asking a potential apprentice to bake a baguette and send a photograph. Sending a photo from your blog of a baguette you cooked a year ago might still be considered disingenuous, even if it shows capab

I thought this was a wink and a nod to just using standard latitude/longitude. Doesn't lat/long naturally solve each of your bullet points? •Length-optimized. More digits = more precision, check. •Precision optimized. Except

Email has a `reply-to` header specifically for this purpose. The from field, I believe, was meant to be the actual from, which can now be verified via DKIM keys. A common case might be: `from: tom@co, reply-to: support@co` so that the respo

One rule I always consider important: > If I type the next letter of the top match, it should remain the top match. I find these types of inductive rules might be a better way to express how autocomplete should work (given a limited univ

The goal is to get static time checking of dynamic types. For example, if I take two dynamic length arrays and loop n times, appending (optionally?) an element to each array, can you still provide a compile-time check that both arrays are n

Google Cloud has a very different SLA and deprecation policy than the APIs for Google user-facing services. I have not seen a single feature deprecated or removed without replacement in Google Cloud during my usage over the last two years.

Could you salt and perform a one-way hash on the IP address and store that? It would alleviate a large amount of leakage issues while still giving you uniqueness counts.

For me, working on contracts on Ethereum, I have found formal methods to be invaluable (we use a tool by Certora [0] based on CVC4 solver). The trade-off shifts once you enter the world of immutable code, and the time we've spent desig

Yeah, though I think the concern is that the article headline acts as if the default would ever have been linear scan. It's like saying "Microwave Ovens: How to make cooking 1,000 times faster" and then comparing to direct

The original statement: “Why would the latter enable the former” sounds like it’s arguing against necessary as well. If the original post contained “imply” instead of “enable,” this line of reasoning would be sound.

I love this story and find it refreshing each time I read it. That said, has anyone ever looked into if it's real or apocryphal? I'd be curious to know.

I would add that AWS seems to moth-ball projects, where Google would officially announce an end-of-life. For example, I strongly regretted using AWS OpsWorks after I realized the only priority for AWS seemed to be keeping it running under S

How are the `transaction cap` and `new money will not be created` related? A block can contain more transactions, but the block reward stays the same. Also, new bitcoin is created all the time (since that's what mining is).
