In Israel, around a million ultra-Orthodox Jews have specially made "kosher phones" that only make phone calls[1]. This is for religious reasons (with, it must be said, a not-insignificant amount of social pressure.) Full disclosu

You can (or used to be able to) embed an HTML form inside an email, and clicking the submit button will perform a POST if that is the method specified. This would probably solve the issue. You avoid an extra click on the resulting page, it&

That's very different. There, the thing being referred to is the thing they didn't want to refer to. Here, there is nothing whatsoever wrong with the _thing_ being referred to (a password, in this case.) The issue is that the comm

The real scandal is when 'More options' takes 20 seconds to load - clearly deliberate but with just enough plausible deniability.

I think by law they have to make it as easy to opt out as to opt in. So for almost all the websites I see, clicking 'More options' defaults to everything off. I now do 'More options' > 'Save' on autopilot (a

Nothing to do with being good or bad. The work they do doesn't add value. It might even be necessary work so that markets can function, but it doesn't add value .

There are certainly higher levels of meaning than monetary value. The issue the OP is raising is that many jobs don't even hit that lower bar. From the perspective of 'creating something people want', a car does belong in tha

The economy is (or used to be) built on creating value and then exchanging it. So any job that doesn't end up creating value for a person somewhere (as opposed to a "system") is meaningless. I.e. is the total value of the w

That's an interesting question. Some software is valuable according to this definition, e.g. Google search. Some is not, e.g. Google ad algorithms. Software is an enabler . It depends what it's enabling. Would be interesting to k

PHP also has a nice thing I wish more languages had, which stops you shooting yourself in the foot due to this - the concatentaion operator (.) is different from addition (+). So "5" + 1 is 6, just as 5 + 1 is 6.

I have about 245 GB of photos and videos. I switched to 2 hard drives + pCloud (under $50 a year for 500GB). It helped that I'd always had the hard drives while still on Google Photos.
