I didn't even think of this. Recently I was implementing MailChimp webhooks and it was a pain. Thanks for the idea.

A friend of mine left his laptop unattended at a library in San Jose, and it was stolen within minutes. Fortunately, the police somehow identified the thief using CCTV footage and recovered the laptop. Last I heard, the dude was in jail.

That's a great approach - specifically reassuring the user that you're not going to do anything malicious with their contacts. 95% of the time, if an app requests access to my contacts, I will deny it fearing that it's going to spam them text messages like "Dav- is using ShittyFooBarApp – Click here to join them! http://spammy.co/ad9s8hu".

I really enjoyed this, but as others have mentioned it is not immediately clear what you're supposed to do. I spent about 3 minutes trying to figure it out. Maybe the first level should tell you exactly what to type, so that you can get the hang of it.

They're having a live demo[1] at TechShop in SF on Monday (3/24/2014). I'm thinking about going.

Actually, someone submitted a pull request to fix this 4 hours before my original comment: https://github.com/isaacs/st/pull/37/files

Exactly what I was thinking. I wonder if Pley will track how many pieces each customer claims to "lose" and will eventually start penalizing them somehow?

If there was a 6-day round trip for receiving sets and sending them back, you could get around 3-4 sets a month. That's 45-60 free pieces.

You could perhaps realistically steal a 32x32 baseplate ($4.99), 4 2x8 bricks ($0.50/ea), and 10 2x4 bricks ($0.30/ea). That's up to $39.96/month worth of legos.

If you just stole 2x8s and 2x4s, that would be anywhere from $18 to $30/month. Their lowest tier starts at just $15/month.

Yeah, that is very weird. Shouldn't it this?

    .replace(/>/g, '>')
    .replace(/</g, '&lt;')

I cloned it to my computer and set up a `git pull` cron job for this reason.

Post on Hacker News, expect to get "hacked".

Perfect, it's just what they've been craving!

The weakest link in software security is often people.

How did you find this?

Watch out, this guy's obviously a slimy social engineer. Don't fall for his tricks.

Does it claim to be better? The main advantage I can see is simplicity, even non-technical users should be able to figure it out.

The free development plan is pretty neat, but other than that it just seems like another shared PHP host.

Are you guys aware of your WOT rating? https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/saymedia.com

An invite would be nice, if anyone is willing.

Couldn't this effectively be "Sublime Text 4," written from scratch using ST3's proven approaches? I honestly have no clue, I just want to believe.

Case in point.

It's gone now. Something odd I noticed, though: I was testing to see if going to https://www.mtgox.com/img/ would serve up a directory listing and, while it doesn't, it redirects to https://www.mtgox.com/data/mtgox_off/img/ and displays a 404.

If you request https://www.mtgox.com/foobar, it doesn't redirect but displays the same 404.

If you request https://www.mtgox.com/data/mtgox_off/img/mtgox_logo_mail.png, it loads the image, so that's definitely a valid directory, and the shorter version (https://www.mtgox.com/img/mtgox_logo_mail.png) is probably just being rewritten.

I wonder if there's anything accessible in the / or /data dirs.

Right, thanks. I'm always paranoid that I may be missing emails.

So, I have a question: Would the following be safe? Specifically the "* CNAME @" rule.

Realistically, I'm not worried about someone brute forcing my password for some one-off site. On the other hand, there's really no technical reason to limit passwords to anything less than 255 characters, so why do it? What if some technological breakthrough enables us to build processors much more powerful than previously thought possible, processors that can easily brute force a 16 character password? Likely? No. Possible? I have no clue, but I'd rather not gamble on it.

Awesome, this is one of my favorite XKCDs. I've been mulling over a plan in my mind to make a physical version of it, looking similar to a deep picture frame or display case. It would use white acrylic with the text somehow printed or transferred on, backlit by white LEDs (maybe incandescent lamps would look nicer?). Each cell would be separated by thin black wood or plastic strips. It should be pretty easy to control the whole thing with an arduino, and I think it would make an awesome wall display.

I'm using Lastpass. I usually generate 48 char passwords.

Why, oh why, are passwords limited to 16 characters? It simply baffles me that modern applications are still being built with these pointless limits. Can you please explain your reasoning to me?

Perhaps you could integrate some type of death instrument into the simulator to increase the realism. Crash your plane, and a stack of exercise machine weights falls onto your head. Something like that.

How is the free plan going to work? Are they going to monetize it somehow by collecting data or serving ads?
