The ship has sailed on this term of art, but as a native English speaker, I agree with you that it's ungrammatical. I would use a hyphen, though: "physics-based." This answer agrees with you (and me): https://engli

It's worse than that. They could just throw away all the sales from this contract, since it's not connected to anything. They also failed to verify source code for the contract: https://etherscan.io/address/0x

Just to close the loop here, we’ve updated the page to include a checkmark for 2FA in the Pro column too. Again, all account types can use 2FA (and we recommend that they do!), and teams can additionally require 2FA for all their members.

I'm not 100% sure what that is about, but I'm pretty sure it relates to new functionality for migrating data from existing file servers. The API at https://www.dropbox.com/developers works for all account types. (

Engineering Manager at Dropbox here. Sorry for the confusion! This is an error on that page, presumably some miscommunication between groups at Dropbox. 2FA continues to be an available feature for all Dropbox users. The only difference bet

It's not in v2 yet (coming soon!), but check out /log/get_events [0] in v1. I'm not sure that it will cover what you want if you're looking for file changes. That might be better served with webhooks, /files&#x

And Dropbox has one for API v1: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-js . There will be one for v2 as well.

FYI, endpoints that could actually take advantage of caching (e.g. downloading a file, preview, or thumbnail) do support HTTP GET with ETags.

Thanks for the feedback! This is definitely already being tracked as a feature request, but I don't have anything to share about if/when we'll add comments support to the API.

by smarx 11y ago
Our goal is definitely to give administrators the control they need through the API, but I'm very willing to believe there are things we're missing. :-) Is there something specific that's not already part of our Dropbox Busin

Stay tuned for more details! The short answer is that yes, you'll be able to do that, but we haven't published that API description yet.

Looking at the code, it appears that this will only work for Dropbox accounts that have a public folder (users who signed up prior to October 2012 or paid users who have specifically enabled the feature). (See https://www.dropbox

Seems like a useful tool; thanks for sharing it! Two questions: 1) What's the diff logic? At first glance, it looks like JSON is reformatted (maybe canonicalized in some way) and then a line-by-line diff is applied. Is there more to it
