    If only we had a secure place to store all of the horcrux strings that are unique per-website! Joking aside, I don't see the point of this. It guards against exactly one attack (yo…

    That's no different than me buying GOOG/FB/AMZN stock at the time of the grant, it's nothing more than betting on the stock market.

    This isn't Stripe's fault here, but if to make a payment online you need to track everyone just to make sure the transaction isn't fraud, then the system is broken. Why can't onlin…

    Overflow of signed integers is undefined. int add(int a, int b) { return a + b; } Unless the compiler can prove that `add` is never called with a and b values resulting in an overf…
