Nothing difficult about zip codes as long as you treat them as strings :)
You're just in the wrong location of the country.
Sounds like RuneScape too.

They even killed the official classic version not too long ago.

Maybe because the cost of travel and breeding expenses were lower compared to just doing the breeding in Canada.

Could also be the sales price which might be higher there than elsewhere.

I'm by no means an expert and it's just a guesstimate.

You should look into UFCS from dlang, maybe that can give you some inspiration.

Pretty sure titles like "Pewdiepie is a Nazi" is not considered good reliable content.

Good content, sure.

Reliable, not so much.

I have a question and maybe someone here can answer me.

For the "Use a privacy-first email provider".

I currently use G Suite for business emails within my personal business.

Are there any alternatives that offers something similar to G Suite but with the expected privacy of the listed provider.

I'm aware that I won't be able to get all the features of G Suite, but I primarily only use the email part (Of course with multiple users so it has to have support for that.)

Yeah, I sure can.

I used the following tech: D (https://dlang.org) - Used as the primary programming language. vibe.d (https://vibed.org) - Used to handle the basics of http/https, but nothing more.

For the database tech the following are used: ORM (Supports the MySql/MariaDb/MSSQL engine) Mongodb (Uses a wrapper around the vibe.d implementation) MySql/MariaDb (Uses mysql-native) Redis (Usable through vibe.d) MSSQL (Uses mysql-native) PostgreSQL/SQLite (Coming in next version.)

The core design of it was a native full-stack web framework based around the ideas of ASP.NET, Razor and MVC.

My entire full-stack web framework because it's currently what's used for all my commercial projects.

It has been the most beneficial project to me both financial but also in terms of gaining knowledge.

It's the most important code I've ever written because while some would say you shouldn't reinvent the wheel, by reinventing the wheel I have made my overall performance and knowledge ten times better.

I mean it's not really a scam, but it's definitely fraud.

Nice try Slate.

If the business is registered in Australia then you're under Australian laws, regardless of where it's hosted.

All my hosting is done in the US, but that doesn't mean any of my businesses are necessarily American.

Nothing bad about GDPR, since it's actually made to protect citizens.

Yes

Unfortunately it's going to be way harder than you think because "Five Eyes" expand beyond just "Five Eyes" like "Nine Eyes", "Thirteen Eyes" etc.

Pretty much any "good" country is affiliated with "Five Eyes" in one way or another.

"Unnamed Namespaces and Static Variables GSG prohibits the use of static definitions and annonymous namespaces in header files. How else do we declare constants?"

A constant is not a static variable.

I don't see much reason why their website should have HTTPS though.

There are no input fields, no requests sent with personal information at all etc.

Everything that's questionable already comes over HTTPS on their site though, like Facebook content etc.

What makes you think it's SMTP and not SMTPS?

Well you took over and did a terrible job.

Hash passwords, not encrypt.

An encryption is reversible, a hash result isn't.

He asked how long it would take me to make something similar and I answered. I don't see what that has to do with "target audience".
