    Besides what MattJ100 wrote above, by itself this is also not true. You can tell Android to not optimize Conversations and allow it to run in the background. It will work just fine…

    I expect it is 27W to support 9V 3V, not because of tolerances per se. (Source https://www.sparkfun.com/products/23583 )

    Because wages are non-Gaussian, standard deviation doesn't mean anything in this context.

    Hence the suggestion for PagerDuty. It handles all this, because responders set their notification methods (phone, SMS, e-mail, and app) in their profiles, so that when in trouble …

    Why every time? Isn't this a user config that overrides whatever default there is?

    Except that Luna in Slavic and Latin just share the same ancestor in PIE.

    As far as I know, Facebook Messenger's XMPP support was only exposed to clients (c2s), not to other XMPP servers (s2s). Microsoft's Lync (now known as Skype for Business) supported…

    In this Dutch article ( https://www.rtlnieuws.nl/nieuws/buitenland/artikel/5191916/d... ) it is suggested that they didn't use two-step verification because it would be cumbersome …

    If services are indeed doing, or moving to, end-to-end encrypted media, there's nothing the server can do here.

    Yup, and the old bridge will keep working locally, still has an open API, and there was an upgrade program when v2 was introduced, with a 33% discount. Four or so years ago.

    Google Search used to have such a feature. I used it to blacklist w3schools. Of course, the feature is no longer there.

    How so? That page says Marseille Soap is made from vegetable oils, whereas the recipe in the article uses animal fat.

    Blendle has stopped pay-per-article, moving to subscriptions entirely.

    The original article ( https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/07/26/it-snuck-up... ) includes links to some interesting background information, including the event leveling a h…

    Yeah, I considered this a feature. As mentioned elsewhere in these comments, we should have a way to limit the scope of corporate certs.

    I hope they pin on the key, not the certificate. For a mobile app I worked on, I had it pin the public key on the leaf certificate and indeed it would fail to connect in this scena…

    For mobile apps, though, you can bootstrap HPKP with a key built into the app. I worked on an app doing this, and it would certainly fail to connect in this scenario.

    For U2F there's nothing to be in sync: each key is added individually, and you don't have to add all of them at once. I.e. if you register the key on your keychain at work, you cou…

    The desktop version of Yubico Authenticator (yubioath-desktop) allows for storing TOTPs on YubiKeys in Linux and OS X, too. I like having TOTPs stored this way, as you can use them…

    Is this not a valid approach then? The issues of ossification and strict allowance for just known protocols appear to be big enough to cause things like SCTP to not have a viable, …
