How often do most dynamic IPs switch? Been rare for me. How quick can we go from recording malicious IP to showing user an alert on some website?

Ignorant thinking out loud here. Is it feasible for certain infrastructure providers to team up and collect the ip addresses of the requests. This gives us a list of IPs with bots. THEN google, Facebook, Twitter, etc (major web properties)

(Warning vegan here). The idea that eating meat is natural is one of the four main reasons people give (the 4n's: natural, nice, normal, necessary). A few counters: It is also natural for animals to kill their own. We as humans have de

Nice library! Note: there's a small bug in the first example. Css output sets 'color' while the scss used 'background'.

As Paul Graham states, the metric we measure is the metric we improve. What metric do VCs care about? Profit or societal good? The current construct has the public and employees in battle against these capilitistic profit seeking businesses

I absolutely agree about the words 'just' and 'obviously'. I've been trying to cut them out of my vocabulary. The word 'just' has this feeling of being short with someone. And that they are a fool for not

Can't this student just text the prosecutors naked pictures of themselves and get them charged as sex offenders? Honestly I say if you're going to go down for some stupid law, might as well abuse the stupid laws in your favor.

This is just not true. Take the new startups offering 4 day work weeks as an example. They feel they are even more productive than their 5day counterparts. The problem in your reasoning is that people gain efficiency when they have time to

I think if you graphed money and work you'd find some cycles that weren't really benefitting mankind. There's definitely work that is not needed. Additionally plenty of people are not working 100% of the time at their job. Ma

It's taken me a while to learn this direct, cut to the chase, approach when it comes to recruiters. Huge time saver!!

You should also understand that the recruiter or hiring manager knows exactly why they ask that. It's not like it is a secret that answering it gives them an excuse to pay you less.

Been with my partner almost 10 years (I'm 29). We most likely will never get married. We feel we don't need it and plus, the institution from an equal rights point of view is fairly troubling. Even today's traditional wedding
