(When you have to explain it, you realize that a lot of common terminology in the "tech community" kind of sucks!)
It finds bands playing in your area in the near future and creates a Spotify playlist of them. It still needs a lot of work but it's a fun way to discover shows to go to.
If a client submitted a value for which the key didn't exist in the database table, it wasn't ignored - the application would alter the table to add that row to the database so it could insert it.
The kind of vulnerabilities that are basically just subverting a user's trust are totally fascinating to me.
Using the "url" input type can be a problem, due to strict validation - the validator requires a URI as specified by RFC 3986, meaning that if the user enters "example.com" rather than "http://example.com", the browser considers this invalid, blocks the form submission, and displays an error like "Please enter a URL".
This effectively breaks the form for most users, on mobile or not, so you'd need to disable HTML5 input validation on this form or field.
Very cool, thanks for making this!
About 6 months ago, I noticed I was unable to log in to my account. Resetting the password did nothing, so I sent an email to the local support address. Almost two weeks later, I finally get the following reply:
I looked into this situation and it appears that this
device has been used on 25 different Uber accounts, which
is a major red flag for us. We will not be reactivating
your account.
Uber Love,

I have one of those "firewall" apps on my rooted Android phone that lets you restrict individual permissions for a given application. By default, I prevent applications from transmitting the IMEI. I assume at least 24 other people have done the same thing.I sent an email explaining the issue, and they eventually emailed me back saying they would "check in with their engineering team and circle back soon." In May. My subsequent emails have been ignored. There is, as far as I can tell, no way to escalate the issue.
I used to really like Uber, but they sure did their best to keep me from using it.
I thought the text (and class) was pretty good, although I'm sure being in the class helped. You should definitely have some experience with basic data structures, discrete math and graph theory before diving into it.
By CA law the property owner is usually responsible for the upkeep of the sidewalk on their property. However, if someone falls and breaks their face on a broken sidewalk the city is liable.
optgroup is occasionally useful for demarcating groups within lists, but this need hasn't come up much in my experience.
I also use figure and hgroup, although more just for the sake of using HTML5 elements than anything else!
Gmail filters out '.' within usernames (e.g., [email protected] and [email protected] are sent to the same account), but this gives you a more limited number of options, and is even harder to keep track of!
