He gives a cost breakdown showing that he's almost guaranteed to lose money off it. Azure is charging him 3.5$ per 1 million calls to ratelimit/charge people for using the api. He's charging 3.5$. Consider that Stripe will be

I'm not an iOS developer but if it does exist not many apps use it. Snapchat, MS Teams, Discord, and a few others don't do it by default at least.

Authentication is certainly a scenario I think you'd want to monitor for brute force attacks? Sure IG gets 1000's+ requests a second, but they shouldn't be getting 1000's+ requests per second per user - especially on a l

This is what we have that I rather enjoy. Half a dozen programmers in a room with cubicles, just have to lean over to talk to somebody (teams are next to each other). Further discussions are moved to the conference room which is dedicated t

Yeah for sure, a few attempts isn't a problem IMO, even only say 6 digits there's too many permutations. > I have used 1000 different machines (to achieve concurrency easily) and IPs to send 200k requests (that’s 20 percent of

You're right, facebook and others can (and do!) infer people based on contact lists, even if you don't have a facebook account, if all your friends do then Facebook already knows who you are, who your friends are, you're like

It's almost certainly depends on the juridiction but I am curious on this. Also if any lawyers read this - If "perpetual" isn't binding, would say "The next 200 years" be binding? It's an explicit time per

This is a scoping issue. On iOS devices at least no app has access to your photo gallery unless they explicitly prompt you for permission. That said, many apps need access to the photo gallery - say I want to put a screenshot into discord.

If it pumps too much you're dead - which is why I'm considering it life critical. Not enough is also bad but hopefully they'll notice and can act accordingly - still a threat too though. It's not that we're all sayi

I have over 4 RPi's and many SSDs and I've never thought of that, nice!

Fuzzing seems like a really useful test for this. Either way, I agree I'm not really subscribed to the idea that DIY life critical systems are a good idea beyond POC.

While I guess you could say it was a project killed by google (supposedly - we'll see how long that lasts), killedbygoogle.com is mostly meant to shame google, and I don't really want to shame them for cancelling this project.

Actually in CS:GO there's a pretty big Hack vs Hack scene where both teams cheat. It's interesting because on one hand there are some novel cheats, on the other you still have to obey the game's mechanics, just in a different

They would have to have live price data across multiple vendors -say uber, lyft, every train station, every bus station, city taxes, if you can bring a bike or not, etc. Getting all that data for a single city would be impressive, let alon

It REALLY depends on your government. In Michigan doesn't allow automatic speeding camera things that automatically issue tickets, while New York does. Going off how Michigan operates then no, the GPS info wouldn't be enough. In a

Even better! So you'd basically need a 10Gbps connection. I highly doubt many macbook air users have a 10Gbps connection, and are connected with a thunderbolt -> ethernet. I also doubt you'll find many cloud providers that can

I'll agree that a person in a CEO position of say Goodwill deserves to be paid a lot of money given their position, running an organization takes money etc. But I personally don't have much money. I would rather give my local chur

As far as I know constitutionally we can't, there's too many issues, they're US citizens, I don't believe states can legally secede, and a bunch of other stuff. Ignore the parent, he's just spouting random inflammat

Where the heck did you pull that number from? Also why are you posing it as a question? The closest thing I see from google is "Trump's Child Detention Camps Cost $775 Per Person Every Day" which is unrelated to this discussi

Unless you have a datalink over 1Gbps (and iCloud can actually saturate that link) the SSD isn't going to bottleneck it either way.

The browser doesn't know by default what websites should be accessed. They don't know that l337haxor.dev doesn't have access to api.bank.com but bank.com does. Instead it's the server at api.bank.com 's responsibili

I know it's going to become an even bigger bottleneck moving forward, but it really raises the barrier for us hobbyists. I own a 1080ti (12GB RAM) - and I consider this "high-end" for many people who aren't actively empl

I would argue that as an entity when communicating with other entities they may be able to refer to the data they store as "their data", but the data itself is still yours. It's kinda the whole point of GDPR and stuff...

From my other comment: I see people talking about ad farming - but this seems like for whatever reason IE was opened - and it's default home page is MSN, which has ads. Where are you getting ad farming from?

That's interesting, most people (myself included) usually find poorer battery life on laptops, often substantially worse. The reasoning boils down to power management, but using linux cuts an hour or two off my laptop's battery li
