I noticed the CGI cars in this clip don't have drivers in them.

How would they add a driver for an actual ad? I think cars are much easier than humans to do photo-realistically in CGI. Or do they just show the car in a way such that you can't see that there's no driver?

Actually, you still have a copy of the data, in memory.
There is a "Datacenter-aware mode": https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/configuration.html#data...

But then you have the problem that typeof null === 'object'.

Maybe deno will implement something like vgo. (If you don't yet know about deno: https://youtu.be/M3BM9TB-8yA )

The actual issue is http://crbug.com/394518, which is not public.

Not related to the 'not secure' marking, but on the page it says they fixed a medium severity security bug reported in 2014.

> [$500][394518] Medium CVE-2018-6169: Permissions bypass in extension installation . Reported by Sam P on 2014-07-16

And given the relatively low issue number (e.g. http://crbug.com/394520 is from 2014), it's not a typo.

Ok, I forgot Symbol, so you were correct.

Actually no, all keys are strings in JS, and if you use something that isn't a string as a key, it is converted to a string (unless you meant Maps[1], which don't use object notation).

I think escaping quotes only matters for attributes (which can use ' or "). Example:

    <img src="$url">
Exploit:

    foo.jpg" onload="alert('pwned')
Yes, there is a fade in effect (but no shaking). It is mentioned in the post, you have to click 'Load 13 more images' at the bottom to see the whole post.
