And the lead dev would come into any thread on HN or Reddit and argue with people.
It's baffling that this hasn't been done after the 6th(?) time in the past year.
Likewise. I saw it vanish from the "Plan usage limits" page in real time.
I've only heard it used as Retr0id's definition.
What I'm reading is that you agree Trump represents the republican party. Great, the gp's comment has been settled.
I moderated a large Reddit community (circa 2014). She threatened to have articles written about how we were racist/misogynistic, unless we removed comments she didn't like.
Her being nasty elsewhere doesn't surprise me...
I suspect that he at least uses AI for scripts. He tends to repeat the same thing worded slightly differently a few times.
Is the implication that someone can't dislike both?
If you find an exposed token in the wild, for a service supported by GitHub Secret Scanning, uploading it to a Gist will either immediately revoke it or notify the owner.
How is reminding people that they can safely revoke exposed API keys not informative? Why are you being so combative?
AWS sends me an invoice for $0.01 every month.
Parallel and Series makes sense to me; it's also the terminology used for electrical circuits.
The purpose of command and control servers is to send and receive data to victims devices.
A secondary goal is to do so while evading detection. This is why many threat actors piggy-back off of legitimate services, it disguises the malware communications and avoids directly exposing the upstream C2 instance.
The main use case, in my opinion, is for tests/CI. SQLite has traditionally been used to quickly run tests, however, if your actual infra uses PostgreSQL then the value is limited.
That is what "end-to-end encryption" has come to mean in marketing. In the same way that every single product is "natural."
Uber's business model is to be a loss leader to hamper competition, then jack up rider rates and lower drive rates. This is technically a 'working' business model, but hardly one that benefits the people.
> Hang on a minute. How do you square your claim that it's as it should be that train drivers can be paid as much as airline pilots, with your claim that everyone else is underpaid, including, presumably, airline pilots
What is inconsistent about those two things?
You can simultaneously believe that train drivers and airline pilots deserve to be paid more.
> He said that his team had hoped for it to become a prescription medicine dosed at 500 mcg, because anything higher gave paradoxical effects and actually made sleep worse.
Tangentially, I'm reminded of this interview around ~31m.
TL;DR they found something that promoted deeper sleep, but people didnt necessary feel "well rested", and so it was shelved for something that subjectively improved sleep but actually reduced the quality of sleep.

There are a number of products and open source tools that do this. Look up "secret scanning".

> in light of the DOGE findings regarding 150+ year olds collecting social security...
The claims made by DOGE were highly misleading (i.e., lack of death date does not mean a 150 year old is receiving money).
Moreover, it wasn't a novel discovery. It had already been identified and published in a 2023 audit:

The modern Internet is a privacy nightmare in large part due to advertisers. Having every aspect of your life surveiled, packaged, and sold is not a trivial issue.
And will they ever support an easily-configured catch-all domain, like Namecheap?
I believe foreign key constraint validations are also disables by default.
"In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

The article is objectively bad; the subject is clearly something a lot of people think about, myself included.
