I cannot at all relate to your experience specially since you're providing details sparingly. You're saying x exists without any evidence and then saying avoid x at all costs. Can you give more details about what happened to you t

I think the bigger point in this story is not that there will be times in life where you're confronted by authority to stop you from going over the speed limit, but that for every one of those cases there are countless other scenarios

Because that's how it is in almost any major modern metro area in the world. Forming a tunnel vision into only one aspect of an issue almost always leads to bad outcomes, maybe except in programming and specifically in unit testing.

I'm not sure at all if that's what's being proposed. I think both are being advocated and that's why that makes no sense since as the OP suggested there are vast voids in between dense metros in the US.

by soheil 4y ago
It's not clear if you're saying mass transit within the metros or also to other metros. It sounds like you're trying to imply the later by a way of using the former as a reason. The distances in the US between major populatio

Hey Felix, really cool to see this here and that you were able to create it so quickly. Beyond js does it detect any native code interfering or tracking of the webview? I know for example this is possible: UITapGestureRecognizer *target

It's not a defense, I'm simply asking why is everyone pilling on tiktok over some javascript trickery just bc they're deemed an enemy of the state by our all mighty government?

No my point is why single out tiktok when every other social app is doing the same exact thing for all we know in their in-app browsers. Just because the researcher in this particular article happened to go after tiktok?

by soheil 4y ago
Did you just wake up today after reading this article and learned about the existence of in-app browsers? This is a common practice by almost all social media apps.
551.
by soheil 4y ago
This is just an idiotic statement. Almost all social media apps do this. In addition apps like Yelp do this to the determent of business owners.
552.
by soheil 4y ago
And how do we know Instagram and yelp are not doing something similar? If you have in app browser you can track user activity much more invasively. That’s not an argument against tiktok, that’s an argument against in app browsers. If you’re

What happens in tiktok app is very much tiktok's business and their IP. Are you possibly conflating tiktok tracking its own users within its app with somehow it gaining access to the OS itself and tracking users at that level? That is

If I build an analytics company and build a product that my customers can use to "analyze" their users activity it'd almost be a total neglect on my end not to include common tracking mechanisms that are well documented like

A lot of mechanical keyboards look incredible but once they arrive in the mail they're complete garbage when it comes to tactile feedback and general feel and usability of the keys. I'd say that's 80% of what makes a good key

What if you learn to type 50% less? Incidentally you might discover that you're a better programmer as a result too. I have a simple rule I refuse to type any word longer than 3 characters. Copy and paste is your friend.

What about adjusting the volume? If you have ever been in a car you can instantly relate to a knob like that.

Another way to look at it is that BT is such a successful technology that it lowered the barrier to entry for a lot of devices that would simply not exist was it not for BT. It means that with any technology we would have the same problems,

I think if the IP is detected as used by one person the recommendation engines relies on it more heavily. For example in an office the same IP is used by many so its weight in the recommendation engine is relatively low. Additionally more a

He never claimed SpaceX is a town square. You're conflating this with his description of Twitter as a de-facto town square where speech shouldn't be policed as harshly and silently as it is now.
