I have a feeling paid-for domestic influence campaigns are a lot more important at this point. What about CTR accounts and the bots they used to mass-upvote their opinions? Reddit is what I really want to see some transparency from.

My experience in tech is that companies will go above and beyond to hire minorities including women, big companies will sometimes lower requirements to get more of these candidates in. You have to be wary though particularly with startups w

They put me on a spam IP 2 months ago & i wasn't able to deliver to outlook, account got disabled later that day for 'abuse'. Same for Mailgun without the account being disabled, although they quickly switched me to a dif

If you have a good engineer who is constantly tutoring the bad instead of building things, then you are losing a good portion of value (the $10m that would've otherwise been created) by the good engineer. This is not as big a problem f

Sounds pretty decent for London, I was appalled at what some of the game companies were offering over there when I last checked.

It sounds weird because it's an anonymous forum, but it's pretty common for people to lie to fit in, especially when there's no way of verification.

Does client-injection count as modifying Epic's code?. I'm impressed with how well this guy has monetized all of his channels by selling this stuff.

>I do have to wonder though. Is python popular right now because so many more people who have never programmed before are now starting to program? In recent years coding has become hip/cool. I'm pretty sure none of the 10,000 B

I switched to Ubuntu, gave up hope MS would come out with a Windows-lite with how big Win10 is getting, and how they're trying to put Win10 on smaller devices. A lot of devices that come with Win10 really shouldn't have such a bl

Adding to that they left an old full DB backup on an unsecured cloud store which got breached recently.

From the few instances I've seen they aren't usually SWAT teams, 'swatting' was just the first term for it which got popular.

In the UK and NZ they're already looking to stop people from buying burner phones with cash.

Wouldn't it just be that https://s3.amazonaws.com is linked on tens/hundreds of thousands of websites and they're capitalizing on this for SEO value, rather than 'Domain authority'?

That may have caused my headaches with Namecheap once actually. I've stopped using PIA due to the IP ranges being so abused, the final straw was my gmail getting randomly disabled for using that VPN (wasn't even logging in from di

I find its the bigger sites that have been introducing the slowest/most clunky front-ends. Thinking new Reddit, Tumblr, etc.

Bing is nowhere near Google yet, but I've been using it due to Google rate limiting my VPN. It does seem to pick up answers to programming questions quite well on the usual sites like SO, every now and then I'll have to switch bec

Employees/employers are free to negotiate this (and frequently do in tech), I don't see why it would apply for other jobs though.

Why use any of that when every cloud provider incl Digital Ocean has a click-to-deploy WordPress app and you can just use Cloudflare DNS records for DDoS protection/speed/SSL all in one with no configuration required?

What is wrong with purchasing a VPN that is made to provide this functionality on the cheap? i don't get why everybody has to try do it themselves. If you're worrying about tainted IPs, pay a little more for a VPN that logs. All g

Apart from the obvious acting of Alex Jones, i put post-Trump CNN on the same level as Infowars. Jones definitely puts out less hysteria than CNN if you monitor both youtube channels.

I think he forgot to write the part about how it is dangerous or not 'more secure in general' after explaining why it is for the average user who is likely to connect to any open wifi network without setting static DNS.

My account got suspended and kicked me off a month ago by simply accessing the forwarding section of my Microsoft account. Tried it on another account and same thing. To this day i am confused about that, and how some of these big companies

A ton of them play Oldschool Runescape where they can either do a repetitive task at around 25c usd worth of gold per hour (can do it on 2-3 accounts simultaneously)then sell it at the end of the day for btc/usd. The type of account re
