jwz links don't work from Hacker News. They will get redirected.

only if you set up your browser to voluntarily send the http referrer

Most browsers are maliciously preconfigured to do that out of the proverbial box.

Unrelated, but GitLab has a pretty slick cookie notice. Tells you exactly what they're doing and lets you opt out of non-essentials.

That is, indeed, _very_ good. I might globally allow JS to load from consent.cookiebot.com for that.

(Just unfortunate that, as far as I'm aware, I can't allow 1st party cookies conditionally on JS from cookiebot being loaded.)

As others have pointed out, this is Gitlab. When it comes to github, they previously helped me transitioning a bugzilla into github issues, but it doesn't look like they do this anymore. Back then, I managed to get approval from all our contributors/issue authors so that their individual bugs and comments would show up as their individual bugs and comments, as well as retaining issue numbers. This is the code for it,…

There's an unofficial issue import API: https://gist.github.com/jonmagic/5282384165e0f86ef105 But it doesn't let you change ownership of issues or comments; everything appears as created by the importing user.

That makes sense. You shouldn't normally be allowed to impersonate another username, which is exactly what a full import does.

… and closed about a bazillion bugs I filed over the years in the process without (apparently) migrating them, too. … though I am pretty sure they left the bugs in the source intact.

The bugs I've reported are migrated over. And I'm not on the hook for getting update emails either, so it's a win-win.

I really wish more people would implement cookie notices like theirs. I really like the one that https://www.bosch.us/ uses too.

IMO that should be opt-in, not opt-out.

FTC/FBI Announces Refunds To Scam Victims The Federal Trade Commission today announced a refund claim process in its case against Online Transactions. All consumers/US citizens who are victim of fraud, who send out money for the service that was not rendered and those who receive fake service instead of the real product/services that was paid for within united states and outside united State area between 2005 to date…

So, I'm really curious about this. Is it a rampant spam-bot that blew its load too early in the wrong thread? What happened here lol
