Slack threads seem designed to ensure you can't follow a conversation without branching off into numerous sidetracks, which are hard to find when you're directly addressed.

I'm sure this is well-intentioned, but it seems also true that using this tool will give a third party, however benevolent, identification of your vulnerable website.

Well, read on a little. The text quoted clearly blames monarchy on the Heathens. Paine then recounts the history of monarchy in the Old Testament, with an example of god Himself speaking against it as a form of idolatry, his point being not

To be sure, the Declaration of Independence has a litany of wrongs committed by the English king, but that is hardly what it is remembered for, and "blamed monarchy on the Jews" seems an unfair summary of Common Sense. https:&#x2

There are other possibilities than "they lied". The most likely explanation is that the branch in India used tactics that were specifically forbidden by corporate policy formulated in the United States, that corporate management w

I have a problem getting to his point when the examples he shows at the start are so unlike what I see when I enter the same search phrases. "COVID-19 trends in Palm Beach" didn't bring up any hotel listings. Instead I get st

MacOS won't let me run alda by default, and I'm not sure they're wrong. There is an open source alda project, but these are binaries downloaded from alda.io. Who vouches for them?

If he were actually "calling" executives in other companies to get them to agree to lower wages and benefits, that would be illegal activity in the US. Companies are not allowed to conspire to fix wages.

The "path hint" sounds a lot like a cursor. Since a lot of b-tree traversal is ordered, knowing the last position in the tree is often valuable information.

"the courts"? More like "in the state or Federal courts in King County, Washington". This probably isn't the equivalent of a patent troll insisting on a trial in East Texas, but they definitely cherry-picked a frien

Someone writes this every six months or so. tldr; Europeans don't wash their eggs; unwashed eggs keep longer. But they would keep even longer if refrigerated.

This seems unworkable. Gaining attention is intrinsically commercial activity. Attention has value; you can't stop it bleeding into the rest of the world. Some examples and questions: - An "influencer" gets her photo on a Whe

I don't understand how Gödel showed limits of AI, or even addressed AI in its modern incarnation, which has little to do with logic. Perhaps some more knowledgeable reader can elucidate?

Backing up just a bit, what right does a state have to declare a web application a public utility? The jibber jabber about how Google might affect Ohio businesses seems just a distraction from the basic issue. A public utility is generally

I agree. When I buy through Amazon Prime, I can safely buy with one click because I can see the exact price I will be charged and, usually, the exact day it will arrive. For next day delivery, I can't recall they have ever missed the d

I think it became the standard because that's the way to cook. No surprises. You don't want to get halfway through mixing up fruitcake dough and discover you need dried fruit.

Ridiculously high. Say you have a one-hour commute each way. That would be $170/week for driving. Costs more than leasing the car.

Agree. I bought one in February 2012 on Amazon "Sold by: ThermoWorks, Inc.", apparently before counterfeits became an issue. It's fast and accurate and still working fine.

I thought it was a depressing little game because it revealed how stereotyped my thinking is. And, judging from the other readers' scores on the ones I got wrong, I'm not alone. The conclusion I would draw from this is, you can&#x
