Yes, this is key. Also if you run a platform that ends up being used to say live-stream mass murders, it seems pretty reasonable that you would want to ban that. Ultimately companies are run by people. No one wants to work for a company tha

The people who were completely obnoxious when anyone tried to warn them that monkey JPEGs going for $500k was nutso, have now flipped to obnoxiously playing the victim. It was the exact same way on The Motley Fool boards after the dotcom cr

Semi-pro landscape photographer here. It's true there are gray areas. But moving mountains and adding animals where animals could never be is not one of them.

Correct, text-based 2FA is insecure. But coinbase allows it, and most banks offer it as the only option. The link I posted basically describes exactly what happened to my buddy and how they pulled it off. T-Mobile + text-2FA + coinbase is a

It's not FUD. They used 2FA to reset his coinbase password, then accessed it as him and drained the account. On top of that they drained his bank account (also using 2FA) into the coinbase account, then drained that too. Coinbase has (

A buddy of mine had his phone SIM-hacked and his coinbase account drained. He was on the phone with coinbase trying to stop it while it was happening, and said they were beyond useless. Criminals have lists of everyone with crypto on coinba

I recently learned that there was basically no spicy-hot food in the Old World before Columbus. Apparently Indian black pepper, or something called long pepper which has a little more kick, were the hottest spices around. Can anyone confirm

Read my comment again. I specifically said "a very vocal subset". As someone who genuinely supports free speech, you should have a real problem with the troll army. Instead you immediately leapt to "well they weren't suc

My point wasn't that twitter was acquiescing to every mass-report attempt. My point is that the "free speech absolutist" line was always BS. They'll turn a dime to suppress any speech they don't like as soon as they

He selectively edits his videos to make it look like one side starts the fighting, and only shows misbehavior by the anti-fascists, never the other side. He's a propagandist cosplaying as a journalist.

Elon has been interacting a lot with guys like Andy Ngo and Ian Miles Cheong. I refuse to believe he's unaware of who they are. https://twitter.com/MeidasTouch/status/1596344634443431937

Please explain how journalist Ben Collins, who they've been mass-targeting, is part of Antifa. There's a huge list of people that have been mass-reported who have nothing to do with Antifa. Anyone who crosses alt-right propagandis

A very vocal subset of Elon's followers went from "free speech absolutists" to organized mass reporting their enemies in a matter of days. That has to be some kind of record. Their enemies list: https://twitter.com

This is crazy. No one is out there kidnapping and sex-trafficking 8-year olds in any numbers more than typical child kidnappings. That's a politically-motivated myth. Minor sex-trafficking is almost always done by someone known to the

Our app is mostly hit during business hours. So we wrote a pinger to "wake up" the back end lambdas when a user visits the website (not log in, just hit the site anywhere) *and* it's been more than 5 minutes since the last pi

We use AWS Lambda with serverless.com. I can deploy a single lambda change to our dev environment in about 5 seconds. I can also edit directly through the AWS console if I want to experiment. I've never wanted for a local environment.

I mean casting to get mocks to work in unit tests, not live code. Probably there's a better way. I'm not a C# expert. But I was a Java dev for 10 years so it's not super unfamiliar.

Yeah if it's really shared code. But if you're just trying to factor out small redundancies that are only implemented a few times and could diverge in the future - then no. I'm a big fan of WET - write everything twice. Then

It's weird to me how scanning the comments all seem to refer to systems with 100k-ish LoC and dozens of contributors. A big chunk of my job is writing node microservices in AWS Lambda. I do everything I can to avoid shared library code

Not at places I've worked. The first to get laid off are low-performers that everyone knows is a low performer and no one likes. The unproductive lifers usually have built a system or two, and they're just coasting on that while d

It should be illegal to buy a company with money you borrow against the value of that company. When your primary financial goal is servicing debt over building long term value - the incentives become completely misaligned.

No idea. Might be some soft collusion going on. I can't imagine the industry has a ton of players. Or they just took the opportunity when customers are expecting price hikes anyway.

A buddy of mine works for a company that makes industrial lighting. He said they raised prices 3x last year and their costs didn't go up at all.
