My mother had her credit card info stolen online somewhere - the first two fraudulent hits were exactly $5k with payment memo saying it was going to some county's bail system (yeah, sure it was Visa, whatever you say). The third fraud

I couldn't tell 100% if he was "in" on the scam or not - has he really never thought of why they tell him to go to distant restaurants, never returning, and why the card is always declined multiple times, and why the cash bac

Sure, you can get this data, but you also have to test what credit cards work and what don't. You can't just go to an ATM and start working through 50 credit cards you stole until one worked without something noticing. I'm

Is this related to attachment theory? Culture A seems like Insecure-Avoidant attachment and B seems like Anxious attachment. Could B's anxiety cause the group to overanalyse every negative situation and do what they need to do to avoid

I know at least with Web App for Containers, Microsoft suggests explicitly not to use in production because it's in preview mode. I've used Web App for Containers and it's almost unusable and nothing has changed in the last

It is an abnormally high proportion because the Three Letters agencies have bare-minimum budgets and have to go after the highest value targets, ignoring low value criminals (abusers and people in power being most valuable) It takes $X mill

When my father was a child, he would bike behind the trucks that sprayed DDT all over the neighborhood because the DDT mist kept him cool. I hope you'll be fine, because people have done much worse!

I used to have a trillion dollar note and a large stack of million-dollar notes before some idiot at work stole them. Instead of retiring early all they got was my eternal disappointment. I keep wanting to replace my cash but the price of

I drive a nice looking car and get asked almost daily how fast it goes or how expensive it is or how much power it has. Bugatti is on point bringing out all the big numbers because that's what all the non-car-guys want to know! Who car

Exactly! We have a nation state budget for branding and marketing but nothing on business growth and we still can't write a statement about no employee ownership without coming across super condescending. Hey, I see your Cost Of Living

So there's plenty of history behind the four... five? catchphrases they've been trying to use (and I think they gave up on catchphrasing for now). But for a time they wanted to stop the brain-drain coming from the uppity hipster

Wow! That list is surprisingly incomplete for TLDs. I should think twice before buying strange TLDs! I found .co.de, (co|com).cc, and .pro.aw missing after a minute of searching. Going to try to find more after work. Instead of having a

I just tried the tool out on some of my old accounts -- here's my experience. It requires access to your GMail inbox to read what accounts you've set up. After you've enabled this app to read your inbox, it'll identify
