In theory, yes. I have thought about this as well. At the same time, you need (a) the device where the account has already been set up and (b) the master password. I'm not exactly sure what an attacker might be able to do by changing t

Starling definitely does, and I do have one with my partner. Same as my other comment, it is trivial to sign up and a pleasure to use. Before Starling, we did want to create a joint account with TSB, so we set up an appointment at a branch,

I haven't used Monzo, but I have now fully switched to Starling, which seems extremely similar - it's part of the new banking avant-garde in the UK and a significant step forward compared to traditional banking. After 5 years with

Sounds a bit cliché, but screw it, that's going on my desktop background.

I currently live in Manchester and your comment is insightful, thanks. As far as I have read in other articles, spice is also way cheaper than weed, maybe this has been a contributing factor as well. The sight of comatose homeless people in

I think you need to add a bunch of 9s to that. Mark and Zuck are literally one in a billion.

No offence, but you're strawmaning heavily here. I mean sure, you're right, the weather in the Netherlands is as nice as those picture only for a couple of months per year, but that's not the point of the article, nor does it

Perfectly possible. If it's possible for China to ban Google and for Turkey to ban Wikipedia, you can be sure that an ISP can block a VPN. :) All they have to do is bad a certain range of IP addresses that correspond to that VPN provid

Unfortunately, I think your results will be heavily skewed in a place like Hacker News, which may or may not be what you want. So far, half of the replies are about DuckDuckGo, which doesn't even account for 0.1% of all searches global

Making the leap to DDG was way easier than I thought and I am really pissed now that I didn't do it months ago. As other have said, you can generally find anything you want and, if not, you always have !g. However, I now have an intuit

IBM Bluemix used to have a free tier for containers, which you could use to run tiny apps quite easily and cheaply, using the native Docker CLI. They've since moved to Kubernetes and still have a free tier, but not sure how that works.

Wikipedia is part of a non-profit whose purpose is to spread free information in the world, while MIT is also (supposedly) a non-profit which takes thousands of hundreds of dollars from its students. Not sure if Wikipedia has any other sour

Pretty sure he meant refined sugar, which has been proven time and time again that it is both very addictive and very bad for your health.

Congrats to the US, but this is not a fair comparison. This is not a US vs Germany/France thing, this is a US vs the entire world thing. Maybe if the USA would pull out of NATO, that would be fair, but even so... the 2% is a guideline.

I'm not a very versed DevOps guy, but I have used Ansible, Terraform and Kubernetes. It should go a bit like this: - Use Terraform to provision VMs, networking resources and storage from DigitalOcean. Basically, write the scripts that

Not true. The policy was that you could work from home at manager's discretion, but full time work-from-home-employees were sort of rare. Plus, they are ditching that as we speak.

Did you even read the post? It clearly says: "We hash passwords with a one-way hashing algorithm, with multiple hashing iterations and individual salt per password."

I find this interesting. While Google's culture and perks are fetishized in any sort of online thread, I haven't heard much about Netflix. As an outsider, all I have heard is that there is a lot of pressure to deliver, or otherwis

My reaction exactly. Americans use way too much, to be honest. 8k sq ft is more than enough for like 7+ families.

Softlayer did have certain things that AWS doesn't (like bare metal, completely configurable VMs etc.). However, SL was a steaming pile of crap. The interface was horrible and sluggish, you'd get errors like half the time you&#x27

That is because IBM is a huge corporation, with loads of red tape. As an engineer, you are not allowed to talk directly to customers without a certain training/certification. Even if their engineers had the time and would be willing to

You're definitely not the only one, I've talked about this with friends and it's quite common, as far as I can tell. I swear in my native language too, but I perceive it very differently in English. If someone calls me a &quo

If anything, you're proving my point. Since PSD was voted by so many people and is in the right, why isn't there any significant counter-protest? If PSD would've governed by sticking to their political principles, their propo
