Thanks for the suggestion, we'll add a pricing page that doesn't require logging in. The "starting price" is just the price of our cheapest numbers (pricing varies by country). We maybe should think of a less scammy-soun

It's on the roadmap, but we need to integrate with another provider to support them. Most major communications services that verify your number don't mind which country it's from, but we realise there are good use cases for h

Is there some policy on HN that the title of the submission always matches the title of the thing that is linked to? I'm sure I've seen situations where it doesn't.
126.
by jbg_ 10y ago
Could someone with permission to do so please fix the title? It either needs the question mark removed, or to be written as a question (e.g. "Why Does It Take So Long…")

There are several providers doing EU-wide roaming already. I use Orange Spain which I've found to be good. If Spain isn't your first port of call you can buy an Orange Spain SIM on ebay. I think Aldi in Germany also does EU-wide r

In most jurisdictions, the prosecution being _convinced_ that you are guilty isn't enough to throw you in jail -- there's still the small issue of proving their case in front of a judge.

Little Snitch is excellent for this. I remember running brew at some point and being asked by Little Snitch if it could connect to Google. I said "deny forever" and have never worried about it since.

To avoid this particular issue, it should be sufficient to rent a server outside of the UK and use OpenVPN. Maybe you even already have one.

What do you mean by "In 2016"? This is by design...

Sure, but there is really no reason to publish the private key and make it trivial to decrypt all the traffic, right?

We have a pool of numbers that changes size depending on demand, but we make sure to return them at the end of each billing period and buy new numbers. Between the providers we get numbers from, there is a very large quantity of numbers ava

(creator of DTMF.io here) I don't see WebRTC as being too much of a hurdle. If the user is running recent-ish Chrome or Firefox, they don't need to know about WebRTC any more than you need to know about HTTP in order to load the w

> Reporting quality seems to be good What makes you say that? Like much of the Daily Mail, it seems to be sensationalised in a way that makes understanding the (probably important) content rather difficult. The headline is incredibly mis

Doesn’t posting a link to the private key the servers are using ([0], under the Configuration heading on the linked page) compromise the privacy of everyone using the service? [0] https://www.dns-oarc.net/files/tls-dns&

dtmf.io could be a good way to give it a go without giving away your identity.

I’m not entirely sure what you were trying to demonstrate, but clearly the result of datetime.now() changes between the two invocations (it has microsecond precision). Try: >>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta &gt

It’s not clear to me that an exploit of a vulnerability in a not-widely-used TLS implementation in native OCaml (or a vulnerability in any of the other software in use on that system) would be more valuable than the bounty offered.

If there are exactly zero reliable implementation of TLS, then these 10 BTC should be easy to collect: https://ownme.ipredator.se/

Still not up for us here in Amsterdam, and support.spotify.com says: “Spotify is currently not available. We are working on a fix and will continue to provide updates.”

Spotify is down too. Didn’t they move to Google Cloud recently?

Amazon addresses that in their report. Each UPS is fed by generator power and grid power. Because the UPSes had been forced to try to supply the grid, and because they are giant spinning weights that you really don't want to go wrong a

The whole point of distributed version control is that if Github shuts down (or locks you out), you can still do your work. Them making your account read-only should not lead to you not being able to do anything.

I’m running Yosemite and the default is “block cookies not from current or previously visited websites”. Not sure if it’s the same on iOS 8, but that would seem to allow the buttons to use cookies as long as the user has been to that websit

The Facebook “Messenger” app pops up a full-screen modal pestering you to enable notifications EVERY TIME you start it, if you choose to keep them disabled. I prefer to batch electronic communications and check them a few times a day at mos
