Agreed. A situation similar to this happened to me with Steam over a payment issue with their service. They banned me even though I had thousands of dollars of games and an account since Sept 2003. I had to go to my bank and escalate multip

Maybe he means invisible whitespace characters that don't render? I haven't verified this but depending on the definition of whitespace it's possible you can pass a base64 string and insert an arbitrary number of them. When d

This is what I'm most interested in. I have an application which has a smaller trimmed down client version but it shares a lot of code with the larger full version of itself. Part of that code is query logic and it's very dependen

Which customers? I definitely do not demand software upgrades on any of my vehicles and in fact if I could easily pin a certain version and upgrade only after seeing the changelog or diff that would be best.

This sounds unattainable to me. For code bases in the 2 million or more lines range, something as simple as refactoring the name of a poorly named base class can hit 5000 lines. It also was not a mistake with the original name it had, but y

Whoever designed the keyboard animation for Walmart self checkouts should take note. Every time you want to type in a product by name, you must endure a 2 second slide-in of the keyboard before you can start typing on it. It's so slow
