The only issue with this mindset is posting restrictions (e.g. on reddit) if your overall karma score drops too low. Karma systems work great if everyone used them as intended, for quality of content or thought, but they're more often

Back in the 20th century there was a goal to ensure maths was consistent, notably by David Hilbert, and that everything could be proven from a finite set of axioms, and he wanted to ensure everything was built on a logical foundation and wa

The following page explains this one pretty well I think, skip to the "A proof" at the bottom: http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.negxneg.html

"through any third party" I would argue that using a third party that specialises in security is better than remaking the wheel yourself. Cloudflare invest a significant amount in the security of their platform and have a lot of t

I believe the forwarding is only done if the card was marked as a replacement due to damage or expiry. If reported as stolen the forwarding shouldn't happen. Not sure what happens in the case of lost. OP said they didn't report it

The rider can also leave a bad rating for the driver in this case, though, right? Does Uber deactivate drivers that fall below a certain rating? Even if they don't, I presume lower ratings would hurt a driver more than they would a pas

The issue with this rating inflation is that it's a recursive effect. If the majority end up treating 5 as average, then you also have to do the same and go with how the majority ends up using the rating system, which in turn forces ev

The cutoff probably varies per city, but I imagine they're only trying to get rid of the lowest percentiles of the distribution. Honestly though, a 4.7/5 generally sounds good. If a 4.7/5 is near the (very) bottom of the dist

Cloudflare Domains is soon a thing (meant to be available from later this month in waves to current Cloudflare users, my guess is it should be available for all start of 2019). That might be nice. Cloudflare promises not to charge more than

One issue I have with static sites currently is adding/editing content from mobiles. Although you can create/edit files (by commits) from GitHub.com via your browser, using the web interface, it's not really too pleasant to w

Indeed, we could see industries change. Technology itself has changed many others intensively, who's to say it itself cannot be changed. Though, unless we can create some self-refining process to create software automatically, some gro

Consider website builders. Have they made web developers redundant? Generally, website builders suck. They do not allow for the customisation and flexibility required. Static site generators, such as Jekyll, are pretty good for their limite

What about if you use PayPal or something, and it isn't a website? You're linked to say, www.chime.com/subscribe, which sets up a payment on PayPal via the API and redirects the user to authorise under the hood. You login wit
