What data was exposed, and to whom? Single records accessed by a white hat to test a vulnerability do not count.

I never said anything was fine. I said it was a serious vuln, and we took it seriously. We patched the vulnerability, quickly. We addressed it with the engineer and made clear that this is no joke. We have extensive refactoring happening wi

The short answer is no.

If nobody reads the data it is not a breach.

Hello! This is Chris from Hack Club staff (the one cited in the post) I addressed the post itself in another comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/reply?id=45921428& ), so I'll skip that part. I would really like to

Hello, Chris here! Nobody—certainly not any adult staff—at Hack Club relied on ChatGPT for legal advice. Nor do we employ teenagers to answer legal questions, we have actual legal counsel for that! Or in my personal case I ask my wife, who

It would have been stupid if that's what actually happened :) I am the Chris cited in the piece. We have actual legal counsel that we go to for legal advice! However, that's not what was being sought here. In this conversation, th

Oh hey, that's my game! I am so pleased you are enjoying it. This is a remake of a game I first published way back in 2014. This version was built by team of 22 high-schoolers from around the world, recruited through Hack Club ( https

Thank you!! I recommend taking a look at the later levels, it goes beyond a middle-school level of complexity! I have seen everyone from graduate students to tenured math professors to Grant Sanderson get stumped by late-game SineRider. It

The issue isn't really with being moved to a higher tier of billing. Slack doesn't owe us their service for cheap forever. The problem is that we signed a contract with them earlier this year for our current rate, then suddenly to

I work for this foundation, I can guarantee that nothing has changed about our status or Slack's policies. We qualified before and we qualify today, which is why earlier this year when Slack took us off their free plan the rate they ne

Sorry about that!! Can't believe we didn't catch this in testing. I think some changes relatively close to publishing must have enabled this bug

Glad to hear it!! If they were able to complete the game, I recommend they try the daily puzzles. These are generally much harder and IMO this is where the depth of the puzzles really opens up. We are still working on the leaderboard bot so

Shouldn't break anything. We are adding a way to skip the cutscenes. That's been on the feature list for a while, but we've been rather buried just trying to get the rest of the game playable :')
