Thank you for your service to the English language. This tremendous faux pas is so easy to correct just by thinking for a single second the basic logic of what is being said, and yet so many people continue making the mistake. Even worse, s

Every time I read "*" or "%@!" to self-censor words, I'm reminded how people continue to infantilize the internet entirely of their own doing. If it bothers you so much to write a word as it is, why not just... not

I was wondering this too, haha. Does someone believe this, and if so, who are you quoting?

Wow, I already knew about testing-stack stuff like localstack (different purpose and unrelated to this project), but the fact this is compatible and connectible with standard AWS client libraries is cool. Imagine self-hosting your own S3! T

I was mistaken—yes it would be possible to upgrade to a 1TB NAND. I'm going to guess it wasn't cost-effective to source or it was hard to find an iCloud-locked/activation-locked 1TB iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max motherboard.

If you have high confidence the CNC is well-calibrated and safe to use, then milling is the better choice. There is a significant amount of resin gluing the original NAND which could rip pads when pulled, and hot air risks damaging nearby c

... As I said... it's not enough to just plop on a new chip from somewhere else and do the standard iOS factory image restore process without extracting info from the original and putting it in the new before soldering. This informatio

The video omits crucial details aside from the physical act of removing the original and soldering the new NAND. I know for a fact failing to copy original details results in failure to restore iOS with specific error codes, so I wonder wha

Change Healthcare is the worst company I've worked for when dealing with IT and security. Lots of security theater getting in the way of the developer's machine because IT is scared of what can happen in dev and staging, whereas c

I agree it surprises me how much people keep trusting SMS in general and how companies keep using SMS for two-factor auth, although it shouldn't at this point, but you're saying networks did a good job protecting against SMS spam

How would you compare your experience of being Asian (granted, American-born) in California versus Carnegie Mellon/adjacent cities? I'm interested to hear more on similarities and differences, if they exist. And, what do you think

Fun and long-winded article, but the author fails to acknowledge the massive blindspot of his lens on overseas Chinese in America. California is mentioned a total of two times in this entire article. Oregon and Washington zero times. The ma

I agree, it is a sad commentary on Asian Americans. I have had the same opinion for years, so I'm glad to see someone else write it. Aggrandized uncritical positive reception and raving about the newest Asian American movie reeks of me
