Yes, it’s easy for a criminal to do that. However, then they escalate from simple marketplace fraud (which is very hard to prosecute) to committing wire-fraud which is not just a federal felony but also carries stringent punishment and is m

pg is definitely not leaving Twitter. It’s impossible for two billionaires to quit each other. It’s a small close knit community and everyone is on first name terms with the other and their family. Not happening!

At twitter engineers are working 18 hours a day, 6 days a week - sleeping on the floor of the office. I don’t agree with Musk but he’s really influential and his style of management is going to be copied like others copied Steve Jobs! This

Flamebait? If you know the password you can enter it when ‘su’ asks. This vulnerability allows all processes, even untrusted one, to gain root privileges- which is a problem if that is not what you intend. MacOS is actually less locked do

It can be hard. The key is to 1) not engage in conversation 2) add mechanical tools that fail the build if coverage isn’t enough! A lot of times people argue that it’s stupid to have a “target” code coverage. I used to be one such person un

How do you avoid “curation” being either called as or actually being equivalent to “censorship”? At the end, isn’t it one entity vs others’ opinion whether they like you or not?

Unions are not allowed at Twitter. Who knows what is cooking there.

Just like that without evidence you laid an allegation on Amazon even though all facts are that Amazon does KYC and doesn’t actually let anyone sell health products (among many others) without receipts. This is text book rumor-mongering and

Spam. The problems with an arms race is that you generally can’t have many winners.

Again I have one on my 2017 Forester, and never turned its safety features including AEB off. All it does when reversing is beep because the sonar sensor is confused. It never behaved unpredictably. (and yes the AEB did save me from backing

I drive a 2017 Forester and in 5 years of driving it I never had to turn off any of its safety features including pre-collision braking.

QUIC uses TLS1.3. You need a trusted CA on the ends but it doesn’t need to be one you pay for. That’s how any version of TLS works.

Yes they do, mainly because it’s the law. That it’s a misguided law is open for debate, but I don’t believe there is any state in the world that doesn’t monitor and control tele-communications (internet is regulated as tele-communications W

I gotta believe that this culture is not also present at Tesla. These cars are drive by wire and I am feeling very very concerned that people writing. code to control these 2ton hulks are optimizing for lines of code written. And yeah, Mr E

This is the correct answer (on Linux) and the article dismisses it after lightly touching on it’s correctness. In a multi-threaded environment someone needs to pay the cost of synchronization if the entire event-queue is loadbalanced. If yo

It’s the curse of popularity! As soon as gaming a search engine becomes financially profitable, the hoards of “SEO”s develop methods to do so. On plus side, this means ddg is finally getting noticed, on the minus side, this means they need

That’s interesting! It could partly be explained by falling Euro but could also be Apple increasing prices to include the “fine” taxes. Cost of doing business invariably gets passed on to customers.

Almost nobody wears seatbelts in India and 99.9999% of them do not get into accidents or die when they do. What’s exactly your point unless you’re trying to say that your anecdote is better than theirs? Have you considered that it may just

That’s backwards. Russia didn’t gain military power to invade Ukraine from UN, it is in UN because it already possessed the military power. Now, you can say that UN failed to prevent the invasion and do its job, but expelling Russia means y

Just came back from cross-country trip flying United. No kidding, even the worst Airlines I’ve flown (Air France and now-defunct Deccan Airways of India) do not hold a candle to the condescending staff and torturing seats.

We have the same 12” cast iron skillet and every word is true. Sometimes people mention rust and it’s true as well. We washed it many times in dishwasher and it’d rust. But then scrape it with a scraper, oil it and heat it until oil polymer
