The reels looks too realistic though. I’m guessing they made the actual celebrities record them and left the AI to take care of the pictures and convo.

If US insists on keeping healthcare private I’d expect soon or later for these money-sucking “health” insurance companies to be replaced by VC-money-sucking tech companies offering a fairly priced subscription for accessing drugs and treatm

It doesn’t. It’s not an attack on the programming languages. It’s just that they have a sweet spot for using old ass versions which might or might not have known vulnerabilities and they don’t care about updating it.

To be fair some nations do have their software development teams. Italy has Sogei which is fully controlled by the Ministry of Economics. They had a reputation for developing crappy software but I heard they are getting better PS: they were

The way it works in Italy: the design and implementation of the algorithm in Java 8 or an even older version of C# was probably outsourced to one of the Big 4 consultancy companies. A group of underpaid graduates was put together to crack t

It’s not right now but it will be when combined with WEI or if Safari gains more market share. Overall, I agree with the sentiment expressed in this blog post: https://httptoolkit.com/blog/apple-private-access-tokens-at

Apple Screen Time API is a hot mess. It’s definitely one of the most poorly documented APIs out there. I dare you to take a look at Apple’s documentation. While playing with it, I also found out - I wasn’t the only one - that some stuff suc

It’s still called “retweet” on the iOS app though. Even though I understand they cannot go exactly together since the mobile app has an approval process before it goes online, I’d like for web and mobile to have the same copywriting

The post states it. This is not a problem because Safari is not the leading web browser. Apple has very limited power over what they can do with it.

Do you really need that many endpoints even at LinkedIn scale? I’d expect a lots of them is due to engineers reinventing the wheel due to undocumented endpoints

They’re legit - most of the times. Most of the times it’s cheaper to print on-demand if you don’t know how many copies you’re going to sell. For instance, OpenStax usually prints its books through Amazon. I’m surprised hearing about big pub

Going on a tangent here: I live in Europe where unions have been present for decades and it’s scary how much I give them for granted. They are not perfect - far from it - but to think of everyone who fought to establish them and keeps them

Your message would push maintainers to put even more focus on the patches, thus invalidating the experiment.

I don’t know much about penetration testing so excuse me for the dumb question: are you required to disclose the exact methods that you’re going to use?

This is a huge stretch. It’s more of a technical or operational experiment. They are testing the review process, not the maintainers.

It depends. Does creating a vaccine justify the death of some lab animals? Probably. Does creating supermen justify mutilating people physically and psychologically without their consent? Hell no. You can’t just ignore the context.

We should ban A/B testing then. Google didn’t tell me they were using me to understand which link color is more profitable for them. There are experiments and experiments. Apart from the fact that they provided the fix right away, they

“Hey, we are going to submit some patches that contain vulnerabilities. All right?” If they do so, the maintainers become more vigilant and the experiment fails. But, the key to the experiment is that maintainers are not vigilant as they s
