I don't want to be alarmist, but just because it's not stolen doesn't mean that it isn't logged. I've worked with Dynatrace. I've used it piece together bugs that QA had found but couldn't reproduce a seco

What's the alternative, iOS? That's great for people with financial stability in developed nations, but that leaves out swathes of those in developing nations.

A lot of us are contractors for the company with 40 hour work weeks. People at my company are salaried. I don't know about the other companies. I don't stray much from my 40 hours. If others want to put in that time, so be it. I a

I don't think it's pedantic to point it out. It is what I meant, but I think it is a very important distinction. I thought GP meant smart phone, but they could have meant a landline as well.

No. That's a side-effect of a highly profitable market. Subtle but important difference.

I'm not asking you to reveal your age, but this sounds like an age related thing. In the US, most people grew up without phones. People can still do fine without a phone. However the access to information and ability to be contacted wi

Because in the 90s, no one knew that all it took was pizza to get people to give up personal data[0]. Hell, a lot of data doesn't even cost them anything. Most people give up their browsing data for free. I guess it helps that the typi

I assume that there has to be a legal definition that outlines what will qualify a business as a credit rating agency. The requirements are probably cumbersome, but something must be written down somewhere to objectively define the requir

I think what GP is getting at (somewhat anyway) is the people who say, "Drop acid or do shrooms at home. You'll come out a changed man." That's not psychedelic therapy. As you said, that's taking psychedelics in hop

That's such a big, intimidating risk. I don't mean that to be snarky; starting a business for means of primary income is prohibitively scary to me. I have a few ideas that I could probably implement to make some passive income. It

If you think a dead comment should be seen by the community, vouch for it. It's a way for the community to help moderate the discussion by allowing habitual offenders to still input relevant discussion.

The argument is that we are trying to remove humans from the equation. Put fully automated systems on the road that have near-perfect reaction times. The only way to get there is by boiling the frog. Technology is scary. It is even more sca

I do. That's why it baffles me. It's so very irrational to me. I don't trust the government to get a lot of things right, but a simple ID system (even when poorly implemented) can't be any worse than SSN as ID. Lots of s

I will also share praise for Beej. My network programming course was in C, and most of my programming experience had been in Java, Python, and JavaScript. This guide was probably the reason I passed.
