This is what should get departments defunded, not DEI 🫠

you have not apologized to the company

Writing this should be grounds for a mandatory psych ward commitment

It does help if services that generate or store secrets and keys display a large warning that they should be kept secret, every time they’re viewed, no matter the experience level of the viewer. But yeah understanding why and how isn’t something that should be assumed for new devs.

Anyone who uses Grindr, please be aware that any photos you send are cached and stored unencrypted in plain old folders on the receiver’s phone, regardless of whether they were expiring or in an album that you later revoked. It’s nearly trivial to grab any photo someone sends you, with no watermark or screenshot notification.

The names of release versions are famous FFXIV Garleans

France is a pretty weird example because most French people do call it France. But technically the country is République français, or the French Republic.

But a better example would be Germany; it’s natively called Deutschland and dozens of languages call it Allemagne or variants of that. Both Germany and Allemagne are historical names we haven’t moved on from, even though the actual country has.

Doesn’t a stock Android installation come with several dozen apps? Do you expect to consent to each one individually?

They could have baked this into the OS, not let you disable it, and not documented it. But instead it’s modular, can be disabled in one tap, and documented.

It helps that their business model doesn’t rely primarily on ads or user tracking, and instead relies on subscriptions from other news businesses.

I got $9.31 from the ISP I had in college! My sister-in-law had $82 from the same ISP. Seems to be a pattern.

Even in non-surgical settings, operating room ergonomics is a huge area of research right now. Even in a routine colonoscopy there are often a half dozen workers attending to the patient, and making sure they can all reach at a comfortable angle and height, without twisting their neck to read a display, is a big challenge.

I just manually filter them in Sync. I don’t have a concrete rule, but if someone has multiple posts at the top of my feed in different communities on more than one occasion, there’s a good chance I’ll filter them.

Ngl that’s pretty sus.

They could at least do on-device hash lookups and prevent sending. Has zero effect on privacy and does reduce CSAM.

I took my bike out for a trail ride, decided to stop at home for a quick refill of water before going out again. I was in my house for under 3 minutes and my bike was stolen from my enclosed front porch.

Reported it with serial number to the police and a stolen bike website but never heard anything back.

I was in college and had to start leaving for classes 20 minutes earlier. I was pretty angry at the time. Now l’ll never leave a bike out of my sight unless it’s locked indoors or with two U-locks.

Most people I know who read a lot use StoryGraph, and mostly for personal tracking, not as a social app.
