The part "let's make sure that we are trying to execute the right command in its correct location" which then follows up by running pwd is strange. Your current working directory has nothing to do with where expdp is found un

I've seen a great many open-source apps add analytics frameworks to the version they deploy to the App Store. Is there any way to verify that the version on the App Store is built from the same code that's in the repository, witho

OK, so how do I know what the external service is doing with my personal information? And, separately, how do I know whether the app collects personal information itself (it's effectively in the transmission path between me and the ext

Sandboxing and permissioned APIs for accessing data is what prevents that, not the half-assed vetting that Google does.

So, when signing up for the app, how do I know what's being done with any personal information that's being collected?

Absolutely. Was just responding to SMS being a direct part of people's "social existence", which it really isn't in most of the world. As you say, though, it's one step away from things that are in fact directly use

I realise TFA is about the US, but it’s worth noting that in most of the world, SMS is pretty much just used for receiving messages from your bank and other automated stuff these days.

CX might have used to have a flight to Gimpo, but not now, and SQ doesn’t. I’ve flown there internationally on JAL, China Southern, Shanghai Airlines, and China Airlines, maybe some others. I did notice that corp travel agents sometimes onl

Gimpo's fairly big for business travel among the big East Asian cities too - Tokyo, Osaka, Taipei, Shanghai and Beijing (and maybe some others?) all have direct flights. In most cases those flights are to the more convenient "city

Sure, lede is very recent, and largely without a solid historical basis, but it's the far more common spelling these days.

We've been testing realtime translation of realtime captions in real meetings lately, with a view to basically answering the same questions you're raising. Using Google's translation API, the number of mistakes is reasonably

FYI, the name of the introductory section of a journalistic article is "lede", not "lead", and the practice is called "burying the lede".

Athletes and essential foreign workers would likely be allowed under existing expert/investment exemptions. It’s spectators that wouldn’t be able to enter.

Yeah, that was always my understanding. GP saying "the gas is designed to be used in rooms with people, so that [it] can be triggered any time" made me second-guess that though. Maybe there is a concentration of oxygen that is hig

The decision to design and implement specialised tech comes from a combination of how likely the risk is and the magnitude of the potential loss. Fires are not that common in DCs, but the potential loss can be enormous (as OVH is currently

At a datacentre I used to visit years ago, part of the site induction was learning that if the fire suppression alarm went off, you had a certain amount of time to get out of the room before the argon would deploy, so you should always have

Wait for a macOS security update that includes it. If you don’t want to wait, macports and homebrew will both be patched much faster.

I think it's just coincidental, especially since the companies for which I was trying to run ads have no connection to each other (apart from me working there). It made me realise just how common these arbitrary automated bans are thou

I realise that the target market of your website is people who already know what "the multifamily space" is, but for the benefit of everyone else, what is it? I read a lot of text on your site and I still have no idea.

I believe it’s deliberate. A human-staffed support desk will be vulnerable to social engineering by fraudsters looking to get their site reactivated. A public list of very specific policies and disclosure of which one was violated will be v

I’ve been banned by the Circumventing Systems policy before (a few years ago), with no explanation of what system I circumvented or how the ban was triggered. Two appeals via the Google system failed (with generic responses) so I reached ou
