When I was 18 I found an offshore online casino that had a video poker game that paid out slightly over 100% if played perfectly. I don’t remember exactly why I couldn’t just reverse engineer the API so I wrote a program that would scrape t

Since when do sports stadiums consume that much power? Is it the lights? Cell phone plugs under every seat?

Every company and every individual involved in the printer business needs to be fired and replaced with a completely new cohort of people. They have utterly failed; it doesn’t need to be this bad.

“Our company AutoNation received your resume and application in respect of our job posting” That’s it for me, once I see language like that I know it is 100% a scam and e-mail goes to trash.

Maybe monitor companies should put chips inside that scan the current screen every second to check for CSAM matches or whatever else they don’t want the customer using their monitors for and diligently report violations to the police?

It is actually the opposite, you are the one advocating for controlling speech. Telling Twitter or any other private organization that they have to spread information on their private platform that they consider harmful or damaging to thems

That would be interesting. Then all someone has to do is generate images that collide with the ones in the CSAM hash database and airdrop them to someone, then they’re suddenly the target of a federal investigation. I remember someone posti

I’m not upset, I’m just amused. It’s always amazing to me when “free market” conservatives complain about private companies making private decisions that they don’t like. I go on Twitter maybe 5 minutes a month. There are dozens of other “t

I don't understand why this is a story to begin with. Twitter is a private company that does what it wants. It can boot or block whoever or whatever story they want to for whatever reason. Obviously if the people running the site lean

Astounding to me that this is what the leadership at twitter wanted, even forcing Elon to go through with the deal when he tried backing out, knowing full well that this is what would happen to their employees. All for like 20-30% premium o

He might need the money…I’ve seen plenty of people blow it all on stupid things who should have been set for life. But in any case it is sad.

Yes, it does. Instead of a startup getting its first investment (from a non-accredited investor) which might have gone on to do amazing things, that extra $$ is instead dumped into highly leveraged options, or penny stocks, or shitcoins, or

I am saying the whole “accredited investor” thing should be abolished

It is terrible if that was the reason, but as for the kids, plenty of kids grow up with one parent or raised by grandparents, aunts/uncles, or adoptive parents.

Dump your life savings into a crypto exchange based in the Bahamas, sure. But god forbid you invest $20k in a startup without being an “accredited investor”

I don’t think anyone should work for free, I don’t know what the right answer is. It’s a shame when someone doesn’t get paid for their work due to piracy, but also a shame if someone can’t access an important work to them that is free to de
