I'm assuming a bot running a headless browser instance can still get past it? It's still valuable to raise the cost of scraping of course. I don't think anything can really stop a …

This is a great article and exactly mirrors my experience consuming webhooks. My team built almost the same workarounds as the author. The solution my team eventually settled on to…

I stand corrected, thanks for pointing it out. I suppose then I'm back to not seeing the utility of the proposal over form tags.

I had the same thought at first, but the example in the article convinced me. It's something I ran into when I did webdev. Form tags usually contain other elements - textboxes, che…

Did Apple help defend you against those claims during the six months?

I've always understood it as a perk the company knowingly allows its employees who need to travel.

Can tailscale connect to hosts behind CGNAT?

Would you mind pointing me at the research you found? I've been looking for studies that correlated hypoxia and autism (and related interventions that might help) but I haven't bee…

Can you elaborate on why the raspberry pis are unreliable? Is it the SD cards, or something else?

There are certain genetic markers you can test for, but not all forms of autism appear in the tests we have today. Then there's things like the folate blocking antibody ( https://p…

Yes it's exactly the one-off situations like that, which aren't super often but occur enough to greatly inconvenience someone without a pocket browser.

I've been trying to do this too - paring down distracting apps, leaving only essentials like communication, maps, uber, etc. But my problem is what to do about the browser? I feel …

Here's how I think about it: - Money (the concept) is useful to society as a store of value, so you don't have to waste effort bartering for things. - Adding on to that, credit is …
