"Read and change all data on all websites" - is that really needed to "redirects to the Hacker News submit page with the title and the URL filled in"?
Re:Tupperware files for bankruptcy as demand slides

My take: the stuff is (or was) too good. I still have Tupperware from both my grandmothers. The stuff just doesn't break.
My box is full. I cannot buy more.
That is apparently what you get for producing good multi-generations products.

Defo not the case here for consumer loans. A German bank cannot tell you to pay back a loan earlier than agreed on in the contract.
You can check out the documentation of the scenarios, they list the created AWS resources. The ones I checked looked either free or cheap to me. No guarantee of course and usage can also generate cost.

Love it. Always wanted to have exactly this for password sharing. Simple yet secure.

If you use clarity (you are the controller, ms the processor) you are responsible for obtaining the necessary consent from your users. That consent should make it clear to the user what behavioral data is collected.

The benefit over SMS or Authenticator apps is that it doesn't pre-fill codes (and passwords) if the URL doesn't match. But yeah, I also have mixed feelings about it. Just slightly better than SMS maybe.

Is that really the only way for many people? Where do you live? In most European countries you can connect your bank account to Paypal. And many countries have sms/phone number based transfer systems.
Re:An interview that disappeared – FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

I don't care about football. But what can I suggest to friends who really want to see their team playing? What sort of protest is possible? Is there anything that hurts FIFA? What about the sponsors?

Sending 10,000 mails yes, but will the email be actually delivered by large mail providers?
Re:How to Efficiently Choose the Right Database for Your Applications

A rough figure : 100gb is still fine with postresql but even then the problem is not the database (query) but rather your pipeline to get data into it. At this point you'll probalby optimize both.

Check out the table. I believe the bottom line is, that length and symbols and all those restrictions don't add any security because the relevant threats are not password probing.

Is NewRelic still investing into their APM product? I heard all original devs left. And I haven't seen any new feature in the last year's. And the last one (Error Analytics) looks clumsy and half-finished.
Mobile support inexistent.

Nice work! How did you convert csv to parquet? That is the step I currently struggle with, most tools I found require me to run some kind of server part.

Nice, spherical geometry is sth. I always wanted to get into. Q: Shouldn't the lines be curved, i.e. the shortest path on a sphere is a minor arc of a great circle so shouldn't the lines in the voronoi be that as well?
