The guides practically carry them up the mountain, make their beds, maybe put a little mint on their pillow. It's an absolute joke. They try to bring the mountain down to their level. From: https://www.tpl.org/resourc

There’s an interesting question on service providers responsiblity who use Oauth for primary auth. Should they reset all access to a company account if a domain transfers or becomes publicly available?

Tom Conrad didn’t have anything to do with Quibi’s failure. The app was actually pretty cool. That was a bad business model which a good product couldn’t fix. He’s a product guy going back to being CTO at Pandora. He seems like a pretty g

I think you’re missing the point. Honey is stealing affiliate credits from influencers who don’t have any relationship with them. If a YouTuber posts an link with their own affiliate code and during checkout the user uses the Honey extensio

Agreed. That comment was just a response to the parent who commented that they hadn't seen RAN chargers often. Of note, right by the Shasta station was a large Supercharger bank, so the planning for this was probably done before the Ri

I've got a Rivian and have only used their chargers on a road trip to Whistler from the Bay Area. One was in Shasta behind a little hotel—you'd not see it if you weren't looking for it. The other was at a Homewood Suites lot

I've only used the RAN chargers once, but IIRC, they don't really have an interface for allowing third-party transactions (i.e., paying with a credit card). You have to register your vehicle through their app, which may also make

Infowars is an interesting example it’s (was) basically a health supplement company masquerading as a media company. Most of its ad load was selling supplements that it produced. All shadiness aside it’s an interesting model. Cuts a lot of

I got down to the bit about Sheldon Brown being Harriet’s husband and was “wait that Sheldon Brown?” That was when I realized what site I was on.

How’s it compare to carbon which is the most common high end, lightweight bike material these days?

The big difference of all the examples you’ve mentioned is dedicated full-time crews on the ground where the events are produced. I’m pretty confident that when the post mortem is done the issues are going to be way closer to the broadcast

The vast majority of Strava users are only competing with themselves or, at best, to be atop a daily leaderboard for a somewhat popular segment.

Along these lines some cyclists have had their gear stolen by thieves who figured out where they live from Strava data. They have a feature to block part of your route when near your home but some folks aren’t aware of it (or learn the hard

I had to go back and scan it but usually there are at least a few named sources and I didn’t see any in this (there’s third party observer quotes - and I may have missed one?) so I’d not be surprised if this is a case where they double down

It’s not good form to bad mouth someone you’ve fired. They did, in fact, release a statement which aligns (in PR speak) with what Toner is claiming now. Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concl

It seems to me that if an attacker gets a JWT they also have the refresh token. No they don’t. JWTs can be used with third party services that should never see a refresh token. Those are the requests that should be presumed vulnerable.
