Bank account numbers for ACH payments seem to be the final frontier. As if asking me to type 16 numbers correctly is better than pasting it.

I'm curious what you define as the purpose of a state lottery. The Texas lottery's mission is to generate revenue for the state. Are you arguing this is counter to the purpose because the net revenue will be diminished by the cer

I love my Kobo reader and am happy with switching to it after a decade or more of daily Kindle use. But I think it is important to not over-sell it. It has had certain unexpected frailties, such as corrupting the database when I neglected

I'm uncomfortable with the use of profanity as a core element of this campaign branding, especially given that it seems to be an educational outreach effort. While this seems targeted at college age and above, I think it would be high

Happens a lot with adolescents. They can be quite exclusionary.

The fawning over Larry Ellison is also weird.

In my experience this behavior is due to the fact that they don't really know on the insurance side how the care provider is going to code something until they have actually done the procedure and have submitted it with the coding. An

Agree that a college degree sends a strong signal that you can conform to the expectations and requirements of an institution. You can show up when required and follow instructions to achieve an outcome over a period spanning years. This

There is a wonderful book about the blind man who was probably one of the earliest innovators in using a cane for echolocation. "A Sense of the World" by Jason Roberts is the story of James Holman, who traveled the world in the e

I've found that the Thomas Kydd and Alan Lewrie novels covering the Napoleonic era also scratch this itch.

I am guessing that Apple is one of the top 10 email providers. Why don't they send DMARC reports? Every little podunk email provider seems to be able to send me DMARC reports, as well as Microsoft, Yahoo!, Gmail, Xfinity, and AOL. Eve

I just think the inconsistency is glaring. Would love to be a fly on the wall of what I expect/hope was a heated debate over why USPS, one of if not the top US government websites used by people in the US, should opt-out of the anti-p

Many US government sites now have a clear banner at the top with a US flag and statement declaring "An official website of the United States Government." Some go further and include a link to expose an explanation for "here&

It's a flat fee. I forget if it was $25 or $35. They were pricing EVs at a discount for a trip I took through Atlanta last month. Still came out ahead with the recharge fee.

Feels a little odd they describe it there as just a problem affecting many frontends. Is www/browsers considered just another frontend, not something essential to use the service for most users?

And yet, redditstatus.com says all systems operational. How can that be? Who is watching the watcher? Now it says "elevated error rate on many frontends." I guess the web/browser is one of many frontends

That's my understanding as well, but I also understand that the email will pass DMARC if either SPF or DKIM passes, and DKIM will still pass on forwarded email.

Sendgrid is no silver bullet for deliverability. They have many IP addresses listed in blocklists. https://check.spamhaus.org/sbl/listings/sendgrid.com/

mac.com is the worst. I ban that domain from new registration now. And Apple sends no dmarc reports nor do they implement any actionable feedback loop.

Yes: shell-shock is never good, which makes "shell-shockingly good" a poor turn of phrase even in the context of terrapins.

Can I complain about the podcast website that truncated the right side of the content on my phone and won't let me scale it to correct?

Awful people doing awful things. But never before in history have they had the tools to scale and amplify their behavior as they do today. As we continue to see more and more evidence of the deleterious effects social media has, I keep won

When I was there (part of the project), it all went to SAP R/3 on SQL Server and Windows. But I left in 2008 and I'm sure they have changed a few things since then :)

Microsoft completed a very successful SAP implementation, on SQL Server and Windows. After two failed attempts. I am probably one of the few people who worked on all 3 tries. And prior to that they had a few AS400s running the business.

I think there are also a lot of people who are only interested in RAG if they can self-host and keep their documents private.
