How big is their dev team? Does their app change much? Could they have contracted it out and now only have one or two people who still push updates to it?

As another commenter mentioned, it's at least a good marketing campaign, causing me to open the app for the first time in months. Or it might be to gather a baseline of how many pe…

Oh could the attacker get information about whether or not I opened the app? Is the same key used to send notifications and access metrics that Firebase collects?

Haha I considered this as a possibility for why it was sent... I don't ever open their app otherwise, I only ever installed it to receive messages from a host on a trip. At the ver…

But if so, why not try to camouflage it as something more generic, to try to avoid notifying Airbnb? I am tech savvy enough and have marketing notifications turned off, but I would…

Interesting, but why would an attacker push a notification like this to so many people? Or did not many people get it? Could I be targeted, along with the others in this thread? If…

Thanks, this looks great. I'll definitely read this later. But why doesn't the base macbook install support more of these features? I was led to believe (perhaps incorrectly) that …

I've seen a lot of people recommend this approach when searching for solutions online. I was trying to embrace the apple way, rather than forcing it to match what I'm used to. Your…

I recently got a macbook for work and I can't believe how many minor things just can't be changed. I don't think you can change the date format in the top right. It seems like you …

Agreed about the intro question, it took me from "I should know more about what tty means (after seeing it for many years)" to "I want to know!"

In 2010 I first got into Linux because of Microsoft making (what seemed to me at the time to be) user hostile decisions: my netbook came with "windows 7 starter edition", which did…

Thanks a lot! I see now, I am able to reproduce the issue if I go into chrome://flags, search for "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents", and select "Enabled with simple HSL-based inver…

Thanks for letting me know, is this in the web version? If so, what browser? I tried Chrome and Firefox and I don't see this issue. I use a plugin to make sites dark ("Dark Reader"…

Thanks! And that is so cool! It looks like the intended use case of this is to generate documents or short snippets of LaTeX, but not have to hard code the answers? I wish I had so…

> I've setup my keyboard (on linux) so that the CAPS-LOCK key acts as a "dead greek" composer. If I press "CAPSLOCK+a" it types "α", and so on. Cool! Is this because you type a lot…

Wow, thanks. This is way more complex than I expected. When I started working on this I thought that I might want to switch to "binary coded decimal"[0] to avoid issues with inputs…

Thanks a lot for trying it and the feedback! Assuming C++ standard regex supports unicode, then this should be easy enough. I never thought to try this. I'll see if I can implement…

Thanks! If you right click on any LaTeX you can access the raw TeX code. Admittedly this is just the default MathJax behaviour though haha. If people wanted it then I could probabl…

TL;DR: try pressing the "vars" and "units" buttons. Also complex numbers by "i" button or pressing "alt" then the now shown "angle" button. For choosing the desired output unit, pr…

Hi all, as a hobby I've been developing a scientific calculator with some neat features. Available on: * web (mobile or desktop): https://alexbarry.github.io/AlexCalc/ * Android: h…

Thanks, I actually hadn't heard of a logistic growth curve before (it looks like something I somewhat remember from high school chemistry). Can you recommend anything to read about…

Thanks for the source, I've been so curious about this information but it's hard to find. I should have said "relatively effective", since I'm also under the impression that the va…

TL;DR: I agree that the public thought vaccine = no more virus. But I'm not sure if traditional vaccines actually mean that you're incapable of spreading it, or even getting sick i…

> The vaccines will become decreasingly relevant, unless we can provide technology to update vaccines as quickly as they mutate. Even then, it'll be like flu vaccines. They'll help…
