If Florida is anything to go by, the person responsible for this will run for Governor then Senator while winning both elections.

Saying their arguments are bad but the dog ate your response isn't exactly convincing either.

America has used this same time period to sell out jobs to the lowest bidder, decimate its manufacturing industry to make a quick buck, is willing to sell "critical" tech to "enemi…

I'd buy these arguments if America was a place that cared about its citizens and not a country that lets a small group of very elite, very rich, people ruin the lives of tens of mi…

It's like how the Sackler's did everything they can to make opioids more addictive and increase profit margins, there is virtually no difference between this and Zuckerberg hiring …

Your link has an invalid cert FYI, but do appreciate the knowledge drop. Rung buffers are some of the cooler data structures out there.

I thought this rule only applied to users commenting with each other, didn't know it applied to posted content too.

Maybe there is a misunderstanding, I'm not saying that the NSA would be buying XSS scripts. I'm saying that if this was 35 years ago the NSA would be buying exploits with common us…

Firefox has <5% of browser share, no one is a normal user of firefox.

I mean if this was the 90s, yes it was true but you are also correct that it's very rare for anyone to be in prison for just marijuana alone in the US. Even in states where it's "i…

I don't think it's fair to hold them to the same, or higher standard. at all this is literally a project being maintained by one individual. I'm sure if they were given $5 million …

The book "This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends" by Nicole Perlroth, while it's about the history of cyberweapons it does a very good job detailing the late 90s to early 2010s ex…

Back in the day the US government would give you $20k-60k cash in a nice briefcase for this type of exploit. Just another thing big tech has ruined I suppose.

Is it really fair to compare an open source project that desperately wants only $60k a year to hire a dev with companies that have collectively raised over billions of dollars in f…

Aha! I think I know my contention with this advice now. Who can actually disagree with this? Like I'm saying yes to everything, no one I know would say no to this. Never had a cowo…

They might be referring to another Vercel vulnerability that allowed anyone to bypass their auth with relative ease due to poor engineering practices: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/det…

I use AI every day and run my own local models, that has nothing to do with seeing sales people acting like sales people or conmen being con artists. Also add in the fact that big …

I'm not saying I don't like their attitudes but it's a viewpoint I am struggling with myself. I'm starting to realize caring about all these minutia of details that don't really ma…

Probably a nuanced point in what's the purpose for espousing the virtues of performance if you don't have the output to show it is worth it? If you want advice about making games w…

No because programmers aren't the ones pushing the wares, it's business magnates and sales people. The two core groups software developers should never trust. Maybe if this LLM cra…

People are allowed to reject whatever they want, I'm sorry that democracy is failing you to make slightly more money while the rest of society suffers. I'm glad people are grabbing…

These people are working on destroying the planet to make more money, they absolutely do not care. Our society isn't set up to punish them, but encourage such behavior to even more…

Egghead.io is not worth it, the courses there have a shelf life even shorter than frontendmasters. Authors mostly use it to dump their wares then never update the course afterwards…

I'm sure if Codeberg had equivalent resources they'd be good, hard to fault a nonprofit for not benefiting from a trillion dollar multinational corporation. What was GitHub's excus…

Perfectly good excuse to make society worse for people. Oh wait, what's that? It's not a good excuse? Oh okay.
