It's worth noting that since the collateralized housing debt scandal of the Global Financial Crisis, approximately nothing changed in regulation, and credit card and auto debt secu…

And what if the battery weight is nearer axle centerline than an ICE?

If Google (or any other crawler) wanted to play nice with paywalls, they could issue a public key for their bot, and put a signature in their User Agent string that the domain coul…

As a general rule, I don't use public wifi and council people to use VPN if they must. No flash, disable java in the browser, prefer chrome to safari, AdBlock and NoScript if you d…

Could you provide a citation for "automatically jailed for not handing over your encryption keys" - I have not heard that before.

Pre-commit hook should address your concern?

I agree with the premise of judging based on both action and context, power and relationship. I agree that hackers aren't the nerd-revenge underdogs (if we ever really were). I agr…

Thanks for showing your confirmation bias. Keep asking questions you don't want to think about.

Because software is eating the world. Because entrepreneurship creates jobs. Because software is the new means of production. Because people different than you have problems which …

That people are reading this subthread and finding common cause with this right here... Do you realize how ridiculous you are? If you would like to know what racism is and why crit…

I think there's some amount of aptitude, but mostly it's just applying effort over time. Keep going.

I mentor Ingrid through Hackbright, and she's great to work with. In general I find it really inspiring to be involved with an organization that introduces so many smart and motiva…

That commit was made in response to this incident. No commit process was previously documented.

If we're just plugging useful packages, I'd suggest these as useful and broadly applicable: * django-debug-toolbar * django-secure * django-celery * django_compressor

(django core feedback): Django is not perfect, and will never be. It's now a fairly large codebase, and though there are a bunch of committers, people often feel it's easier to wri…

django core here, some feedback on -annoying: It'd be nice if you were clear about what versions of django and python are supported. From django-annoying's feature list: * render_t…

By "ID", I don't mean government-issued photo ID, necessarily - just the ability to know how a person is will do. It may be that the person is a repeat user so that the staff recog…

Lava Mae is not yet operational but I think it's pretty likely that Doniece will use the scheme. If so, I'd be happy to do a follow-up with how it actually worked.

OK, I misremembered, it's a queue, not a deque. Still: http://imgur.com/a/Yujev#0 Also kinda random since we don't use much Java here. I do like that people debugged it, though.

A fair number of homeless have mental conditions, but not nearly all. In any case, the hashing approach doesn't manifest as complicated: What's your name? OK, come at 10:15 on Wedn…

You won't believe this, but we actually have a soda fridge here that has a deque implementation on the door with a note that cold ones will be at the back. I'll provide a pic if de…

Well that is super-annoying. I'll tweak the template.

Author here if people have feedback.
