If you live under a government where those examples are a reason to hide, then in the eyes of that government you are technically a criminal. Doesn’t describe my government. Even under the most oppressive governments though, there will st

The thing is that for most people avoiding this kind of tech and platforms is unlikely to have any kind of payoff for them. Life is too short. Most peoples lives are as simple as going to school and work, raising a family, taking vacations,

I sniffed the packets and didn’t find anything particularly worrying.

10 years is short enough that no one would ever purchase rights to anything copyrighted, they would just wait it out. With 95 year copyright that doesn’t happen and creators would be paid.

Why is that dystopian? That actually sounds pretty awesome and would be great if it reduces package thefts.

Any case studies? I once found a vulnerable API endpoint for a staffing company and ended up exporting their whole client database.

I don't think the conversations are for sale.

Not really sure what the solution is then. And it's easy to see why companies wouldn't bothering doing much about it.

Respirators aren't all that expensive, you can buy one at a hardware store. Why wouldn't miners just bring their own?

The horizontal scroll actually isn't that bad, but what killed it was using italics for the entire text. What the hell???

I find positive reviews are usually useless. Every positive review is the same, but every negative review is negative in it's own way.

Don't see why it's necessary to condescend people this way, the fact is some people just don't care about people enough to remember their names. Have you heard of Ian Gibbons?

Pisses off a lot of people. Not sure why the downvotes. If you own a stock that has to resort to a reverse split that’s probably bad news for you, but invest however you want.

That would be damn near everyone, unless you mean people that don’t remember 9/11 are millennials, which is false. No one born in the 2000s could be a millenial, you must have been “growing up” into adolescence during the first decade

Instead of having files that apply styles globally to your application, the styles live down in files or data structures as close as possible to the component it applies to, where it belongs.

I find that the people with the most vitriol reserved for css-in-js concepts tend to be those who have exclusively developed front ends for the web and never on any other platform. I wonder if others have made the same observation. Perhaps
