Not being able to comment at low karma is a cause of low quality answers from new users. They post answers that should be comments, and get down voted to hell. I think account age should also factor into a few of the low karma thresholds li

I doubt they'd allow that either - but database exports are a thing or they could just query the database or elasticsearch themselves.

Right, it's not a tonne of work if you need it or really want it. But it's still extra effort to move away from a supported package provided by the package management software. Not providing repos means you lose the users who

I mostly agree with you, but I wonder if it feels worse because of the emulation and controller/keyboard. If I can get my hands on one I definitely will though if it's less than $100 (AU tax).

I agree with you but that's not the kind of material discussed in the article or by original commenter. Exploitation of children is evil. A 16 year old sending a dick/boob pic to their same age boyfriend/girlfriend and being

Possession promotes exploitation of children. It's very different to possessing content of dubious (to some) but consensual participants. Relevant case law is linked elsewhere in this thread which discusses why child pornography (and p

No. Absolutely no. It can not ever be legal to own or distribute this kind of material. Imagine this kind of material exists of a child that you know. And it was legal for people to send this image to others, and to post it online unhindere

I don't do this kind of work (agency) but I find it strange that ongoing maintenance isn't discussed and priced into the statement of work right from the beginning. Something like 2 days maintenance every 9 months to stay current,

I just installed these tools and it tells you on first invocation that telemetry is enabled and how ti disable it. I think that buys a little bit of good will. I am also opposed to telemetry by default, but I understand it, and appreciate t

Like the others below/above I agree that you should certainly know SQL if you're going to use an ORM. ORMs can be a really great tool if you use them correctly. More to your point, I think the problem is the vast number of develop

This sounds really interesting, but I'm having a lot of trouble trying to follow how all that code fits together - from what code I could find. I also strongly dislike the object/function based approach to constructing HTML (which

I think the ORM is Djangos strongest point. Take the ORM away and then ModelForms and Admin go with it. I think Django makes little sense if you're not using the ORM. That said, you're absolutely right that it is really bad at cer

I'm Australian, but I'm still not sure a 50/50 split on something so important is right. At least here in Australia you need a 50% total and a 50% of states. I don't think the extra requirement of locality would have pre

I wonder if referendums should have a higher bar than 50% against the status quo. Referendums are reserved for big changes (generally) or constitutional changes, and the population can be extremely fickle. A 50% target might go one way or a

It wasn't the "don't build security" that was the attack. It was "be a good boy and tell us who you are so we're protected from your incompetence" that I'm taking issue with. I think it's particu

It's more like they invested in a VC firm which then siphoned off all the money into a Swiss account. You'd have recourse through the court system.
