It doesn't matter what people thought. The complaints were coming from people at big companies with legal departments. The lawyers' job is to make sure there are no legal vulnerabilities, the same way it's your job to make su

I was also quoted the $1000/month price, and followed up with this same question. I was told it was separate from (in addition to) all other service pricing.

You can now also use !s which is the same as !sp. Note that it works as either a prefix or a suffix - it might be easier to put the insertion point at the end of the text box. If you're using Safari, you can use my Safari extension to

The banks' monitoring software is in fact a hassle for me. I've only ever had legitimate purchases denied. The retailer's order flow is not usually optimised for this case, requiring a tedious, often manual process to get my

Exactly. Apple does not refer to this icon as the 'share' icon in official documentation. It is actually the 'action' button[1]. As in, I have some data in this app, and I want to do something with it outside of this app

Where do you keep the decryption key? If it's stored in the same place as the encrypted password, then you have gained no security over storing it in plain text. If it's stored in a separate system, then you have substantially inc
