An app can deny access to take screenshots in Android. In iOS, there's no way to deny screenshots, but apps can be notified if a screenshot is taken. What the app then does with that information... you may not know ahead of time. B

Interesting that his balance sheet in this blog entry doesn’t include the $8 billion “poorly labeled fiat@ account” from the earlier sheet floating around in November: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/202

I strongly suspect this was more widely exploited than what's being let on. I have received hundreds of Medicare robocalls where the caller was suspiciously able to suss out a fake dossier - even though street addresses and names would

I put on a peloton outdoor workout in my headphones for this reason. Also encourages me to pace myself.

shrug it's what it showed me when I finished. I think it overestimated my speed near the end as it seemed to respond slower as I got further along in the text. Cool demo tho! I should show it to my kids, they'll have a kick out

Problem is that it seems every online site now wants your cell phone number as a sort of captcha these days. And they’ll either explicitly prohibit you or shadow ban you if you use a voip number, making google voice unusable for this use ca

iOS will show a small checkmark near the phone number on incoming calls in the recent call list. Which is great AFTER the fact. I have not seen a way to identify signed callers in the actual “ringing” screen.

There’s also a very distinct “bloop” sound from their phone system, I assume it’s the sound of “connecting” you to their conference. Honestly, that is a 100% signal of a scam call that would be trivial to detect en masse in an automated sys

How does that post in any way refute the parents point? I agree with the parent that management will try like hell to blame this on the weather- heck they already are. Just check out their press releases.

Better yet use the in-app or website self service functions to rebook yourself without waiting to talk to anyone. It is truly a race to grab the remaining seats on the next few flights.

The inc article I linked to above has several examples of other days where SWA cancelled hundreds to a thousand flights at one time. But today has clearly dwarfed even the worst of the previous incidents.

Sorry I wasn’t clear- you’re correct. I didn’t intend to imply southwest is one of the legacy carriers. I edited my original post.

Found this interesting reading as to a possible reason why their flight system seems so much more fragile than the legacy carriers: https://www.inc.com/kelly-main/southwest-becomes-one-of-amer...

I loved this book as a kid! I had no idea there was a companion cd! By the way there is a slightly updated version “the way things work now”. My kids unfortunately don’t enjoy it the way I did.

I created a service to track my peloton rides over time. I used the fact that “friends” can see your rides using their undocumented api. So my app just requires you to “friend” a special user in peloton, then that user will “friend” you bac

I remember as a kid with these graphics, thinking that there would be no way a computer could ever replicate full motion video like on tv. Crazy to see how things worked out and how wrong I was.

Most of these calls come from illegitimate call centers running scams overseas now.

Don’t get me wrong I appreciate the hacks. But I can’t exactly walk my father in law through that process when he hardly understands what a password manager is and why it’s important in the first place. Plus this doesn’t help at all on mobi

Honestly, what the heck is the draw to these crypto projects?? A virtual egg that you have to buy with real money, then watch it "hatch"? Who seriously spends thousands of dollars on this stuff? I get entertainment, but good lord

Omg you must have incredible luck when filling out sign in forms. There must be some sort of sadistic instinct on the types of people who design password forms. I’ve had passwords rejected for being too long (over 15 characters), including

I like the concept but agree with your point (2). Building codes are already strict and yet often the tract houses are still shoddily built.
