You just made that up.

And yet it gets it so wrong too, far more value is in delivering standard pizzas and standard T-shirts than custom pizzas and t-shirts. It thinks that just offering a cart is a was…

> No VPNs do this. Yet.

After 5 rejections, what made you keep going back for the 6th and 7th? Isn't there a limit beyond which it's a bit disrespectful to keep asking?

All "big tech" are at it, I tried to go to "My Pictures" the other day and microsoft asked me to run my pictures through facial recognition. They said that by consenting I was asse…

You were right I misinterpreted "out[0] to out[index-1]" but your next statement: > count of how many numbers are in out[] is not true, in the latter case it's a count of how many …

In the original code, an index = 0 would not be a problem. Here, trying to access out[index-1] would error. Yes, you could then guard against that of course, but then that's even m…

Then you've got a bug which crashes if all your results were even and index is left zero.

And just like that, a micro-optimisation has introduced a bug. If the last number generated is even, it will still appear in the result set in the new code, and not in the old code…

Did anyone ground the max after the first crash or was it all in response to the second?

I went in expecting some kind of Tavis Ormandy type magic to copy files without authentication. "You can authenticate with keys" wasn't the punchline I was expecting but perhaps if…

It's also a rogue-lite, which are the most streamable types of games. Games where you're winning up until the point of losing (Slay the spire, Fortnite) are easy for a person watch…

They're also both 10-15 years old!

English is remarkably monosyllabic, especially for nouns.

Auto-rollback transactions is helpful. Everything is non-destructive without an explicit COMMIT.

Yes, HMRC has 56,000 employees, so it's unlikely that's all or indeed mostly administrative costs.

If anyone's curious this references the 8.3 filename shortening that windows was even still doing recently. Amusingly, that tiny bit of backward compatibility can lead to vulnerabi…

"Verified" ceased to be meaningful as actual verification as soon as "unverified" became a thing. I think making it a brand-coloured tick conveyed too much of a positive message so…

That seems appalling, why wouldn't it just have a normal email/password combination?

I don't see a claim that this circumvents secure enclave or device encryption, so I don't think it's possible to "do anything" to an already locked and encrypted device?

Brexit related stress is very real, especially for residents who are EU citizens who may be very long time residents but haven't ever thought of the need to get official residency.…

> 22.1% admit they care too much about who wins and who loses Recommendation: Stop framing it as "winning" and "losing".

I prefer to let the IDE do this. Developing C# in rider if you call `foo(a,b)` then it'll display as `foo(from: a, to: b)` in the IDE.

Semi-off-topic: There's a really strange shaking effect when scrolling down one notch with the header bar just in view.

Would you mind adding context here, what's a PIN number in the context of pizza delivery?
