Why do people use the reverse proxy functionality of Cloudflare? I've worked at small to medium sized businesses that never had any of this while running public facing websites and they were/are just fine. Same goes for my persona

The bit about him spilling olive oil onto someone's dress then playing it off with a flirtatious joke seems very strange to me. Maybe it's just my upbringing but trying to pull off a joke like that in a tense situation seems very

Hmm, it seems like we've forgotten that we can vote with our wallet. If this practice wasn't desired because it raised prices too much or some other reason, then people wouldn't give the resellers their money.

If Venues and Artists were missing out, couldn't they have changed their terms when selling the ticket? I don't really see why the UK government would need to step in here at all.

The people willing to pay those prices inflate them. I could buy a $1k car and list it for a million dollars tomorrow. If no one buys it, then it's not worth $1M. If someone does, then it's worth that amount.

I think these threads attract people that write code for performance-critical use cases which explains the "cosmic horror" over pretty benign things. I agree though: most programs aren't going to be brought to their knees ove

I do think the original commenter could've elaborated more, but asking for citations in this type of thread seems strange. It's not like politics where you can link to a statement from <representative of political party> t

It's refreshing to see some pushback from the right but I ask this sincerely: what made you vote for him in 2024 given his track record?

I don't think he had any strong thoughts on this, it was just based on who could bribe him enough first. Tech CEOs donated some money and had a dinner with him so he flipped his stance on it. We can hand out some "fell for it agai

De facto vs de jure. The Trump admin can create any .gov domain they want (doge.gov, trumpcard.gov) and use whatever terminology they want but it doesn't adhere to the law necessarily.

Considering that she's quite old, has owned real estate in California for a long time, and invested into tech stocks for a long time then yes it makes sense why she's worth so much.

Isn't Thiel the one that believes democracy and freedom are incompatible and also a co-founder of Palantir? Why do we give these people any legitimacy? Because they have money?

I'm of the opinion that things like shipbuilding don't really matter in times of war for countries with nuclear weapons. There would be dire consequences for anyone invading and/or blockading a nuclear armed country. A lot of

The ideas proposed in here aren't bad, but it does seem like you'll need to maintain two user flows as a site owner because: 1) Not all email providers will implement this, and 2) Users may not be signed into their email at the mo

What is your first paragraph referring to? This whole standard is trying to eliminate the context switching that happens when a website wants to verify your email. Perhaps you mistook the two bullet points outlining what currently happen

Right, ignore all the nuance and keep saying "but both sides!!" The only people full of shit are the ones attempting to compare publicly reported stock trades to the litany of corrupt actions done under this administration.

I see what you're getting at now, thanks. I left a comment on a thread about iOS recently[0] where Apple is only making their things open in jurisdicfions where they're forced to which was kinda infuriating/nonsensical to me.
