I feel like it promotes younger folks getting into programming by having them follow trends instead of what they might want to do. Don't bother starting to learn, AI will take your job if you do. Vibe code up a SaaS startup and sell it

Why care about stars in the first place? Github is a repo of source repos, using it like social media is pretty silly. If I like a project, it goes into a folder in my bookmarks, that's the 'star' everyone should use. For VCs

UA strings, just like any other client information forwarded to the server (see: android/iOS data accessible by JS & the server) only exists to build a profile to better filter who you want to serve ads to. It's always ads. An

A nice summary of Malibal, I suppose! Either way, what a fun business; buy whitelabel goods and market it as 'premium'.

Wow, Gazmanov. Last heard him when I still had tapes! Looks like little changed, still nationalist music, just the same but different nation lol

That's cool and all, but when are we getting a dedicated LinkedIn key? I'm getting tired of hitting the shortcut everytime...

Not really something that requires little skill, but bug hunting is a decent income (if you burn through enough). Otherwise, making services and seeing what sticks. There are millions of these that go unnoticed but are still going by on API

This is the norm, no company "pulls out" of Russia, they just hand off the whole business to a proxy company they own (directly or indirectly), that will continue to sell the same product and service. It's just for show, they

Yes, it should be! You are free to get upset by what I say, but at no point should the government be intervening on your behalf to punish me, unless it turns to harassment.

Simple problem, simple solution: charge the appropriate value for the flight.

If pay is the only concern, why not just take up contract work and refuse benefits to get the most pay? Ignoring the other variables at play, such as cost of living and benefits, and only focusing on pay is foolish.

Provably false. You don't even have to look far -- there is no "labour shortage," what there is a shortage of is "desperate people and suckers." That has not led to higher wages, only enough for people to bite. If t

Feature complete, doesn't use WAN, I think you're OK unless you're on public wifi.

If you're downloading random files from a stranger's vague post, then I think you had it coming. The file extension spoof fix is nice, however.

A lot of marketing emails will have opt-out links on their HTML version, but the text version they send alongside it (if it's not just auto-generated from the HTML one) doesn't. I've sent fussy emails threatening GDPR and CAN

Good point. Forgot about all my docker-compose files...

Aw, shoot. I thought I would be able to have fun sending coworkers: import os os.rmdir("C:\Windows\System32")

Seconding. robots.txt is just a way of "asking nicely." If somebody wants to scrape, they're spoofing their UA and ignoring it. Can't do anything other than monitor the logs and ban IPs one by one.

Yes, this is an issue self-driving cars. Roads and signage are not unchanging and always set up proper or the same way every time, everywhere, nor do they need to be. Light control at an intersection out? They'll just blink red, indica

Who cares? It's for this reason I don't use either. Everything is just left-aligned. I haven't touched Fortran in ages, and don't think anybody complaining about either tabs or spaces has either. Just write code and don&

Which is very surprising, considering we have well over a century of snake oil salesmen. And (poor choice of words, I know) God forbid, the centuries of a church dominated Europe with similar stories.

Another chunk of data gone from the-eye.eu, unfortunate. That's what you get for hosting things publicly. Nothing torrents can't solve.

Seconding this. If you are a private company that makes cameras for this specific use case, it is in your best interest to pull numbers out of your ass to place more cameras, therefore making more sales and money on maintenance and/o

Putting in a CC for a trial to access your service doesn't end up deterring anybody because you can just buy a massive CSV with stolen details for relatively cheap. Even if they're frozen/cancelled, the card numbers are still

It's a feature, not a flaw. You get to sell people on cheap NAND, and your cloud service. Windows will always nag you to use OneDrive, your OEM may have their own bloat/nagware, etc.

You're still at risk for EMP related data loss, and the sun flipping bits is definitely not unheard of. There's a reason ECC memory is popular. One of the most available options you have is archiving all your data onto bluray disk

Hey, don't do that. That's bad. But if you keep doing it, you'll get better SEO. No, we won't do anything to prevent this from being a way to game SEO. Words without action are useless.
