tl;dr: CORS is access control for cross-website requests. It's what stops HN from making requests to Facebook via your browser, and by extension your cookies and currently logged in account.

Is selling more liquidity at a tighter spread that much more advantageous than participating in some amount x fewer trades with a looser spread? In other words, I don't understand if or why it is the case that HFTs would like to, in g

That sounds interesting. Where can I read more about people doing this? (And other fun things with GANs and/or anime)

Seems like their HN account has been around since 2011 so probably not that young. Perhaps just not from North America.

Ah I see, missed that the first time around. Another thing I’m wondering after processing this: did you ever try to ssh as the dm or daemon user after seeing the passwd file originally in ifs-subaru-gen3.raw? P.S. Thank you for writing this

Question to the author (hopefully you’re still around!): why do you think the dat files weren’t included in the signed iso?

Either an HN bug or a bad link but the link destination got ellipsized.

Do you have any information about this? I've been looking into the tax implications of moving to Japan recently and it's not been easy to sort through.

It sounds like you’re saying it’ll remain just as true; it just will become less meaningful of a distinction.

Would you mind answering some questions if you're familiar with the area (edit: hah, just noticed you posted to the OP to this whole thread.); What are some examples of firms that are involved in this work? Is it mostly a collection of

I used to make/sell these bots back when I was in high school in the early 2010s. It was a great way to learn programming and make some money flipping sneakers on the side. The bot scene was in its reaaal early stages so I had a lot of

Did you comment on the wrong topic perhaps?

Will definitely look into these, thanks!

Thank you! We actually did remove them, and all started with the “starter” corporation. I think there’d be more variety next time when we don’t. Also we know not to end the game so quickly now!

I'd love a recommendation on a starter game (or a few!) if you find yourself with a minute! I play with a group who, including myself, are novices when it comes boardgames. Between 3-6 players most of the time. We found ourselves getti

We had an issue a few weeks ago where the google front-end servers were mangling responses from Pub/Sub and returning 502 responses, making the service completely unusable and knocking over a number of things we have running in product

No. That is referring to the courts reaching the conclusion that the offer of continued employment is not consideration. It does not refer to the courts' (or lawyers') opinions on BigCo's workaround.

I think a reasonable explanation may be that other customers possibly have come to unknowingly rely on some of the bugs. Shipping a fix of all the bugs could actually break their code!

I find this comment very odd. The 18-22 (college) crowd still very much does use FB events extensively as well.

How does this solution compare to, say, Slack in your experience?
