fuzzer37··on Preventing Pool-Party Attacks
I was thinking it had to do with the Habbo Hotel pool raids, personally.
fuzzer37··on U.K. regulators order Meta to sell Giphy
> Imgur? Reddit?

Both of which fall under arguments 1 and 2

fuzzer37··on Every pricing page should have GIFs
Almost schizophrenic. Made sense to me.
fuzzer37··on Amazon to stop accepting UK Visa credit cards
Yes. Anyone paying fees on a credit card should jump ship, that's a huge red flag. And I've made more in cash back rewards than I'll ever pay in interest.
fuzzer37··on “Click to subscribe, call to cancel” is illegal, FTC says
> "You work or I will make you suffer" is slavery.

All work is slavery.

fuzzer37··on Apple announces Self Service Repair
> Component-level repair is probably prohibited by AASPs because it'd have very variable quality outcomes compared to module swaps, and they're putting their name to the quality of the repair.

It's my device. Apple can suck it.

fuzzer37··on My letter to Medicaid, appealing my child's Medicaid denial
> Elon Musk isn't applying for Medicaid just for shits and giggles

I mean, who cares if he is if it means people like this are able to get the care that they need? That would be such a small drop in the bucket compared to all the people who genuinely have been screwed by the system.

fuzzer37··on Expensify S-1
I've worked in web development space as a QA, and verifying that web forms are 508 compliant is a big deal if you want to sell anything to the government. Do they just never expect to get any Federal contracts and sell exclusively to private companies, or what?
fuzzer37··on A bike parts company ditched Amazon to support indie shops instead
Just ride on the sidewalk like a normal person.
fuzzer37··on Launch HN: Ancana (YC S21) – Fractional ownership of vacation homes
So 2 people in agreement can just gridlock everything in a 4 person unit forever? That seems broken.
fuzzer37··on Dumb Phone
> I completely agree. I HATE voice mail and have actually turned it off. People who know me and need a voice call can call back or try reaching me by text or email.

Yeah... You're the kind of person people wish would just text us.

fuzzer37··on Launch HN: Ancana (YC S21) – Fractional ownership of vacation homes
> you don't automatically sound like a charlatan shilling a get-rich-quick pyramid scheme

Well they don't automatically, but this is still very clearly just a shady timeshare ad.

fuzzer37··on Launch HN: Ancana (YC S21) – Fractional ownership of vacation homes
> For other upgrades, the owners put it up to a vote

2 vote for, 2 vote against. What now? All of the examples you listed are even splits (2 vs. 2 or 4 vs 4). Who resolves a dispute in the case of a tie?

fuzzer37··on Free Software, not as in ‘free speech’, nor as in ‘free beer’
Don't put pointless sanctions on them?
fuzzer37··on Apple defends anti-child abuse imagery tech after claims of ‘hash collisions’
> Personally I’d prefer this than no encryption and scanning in the cloud, which is already possible.

Why is that the alternative? How about everything is encrypted and nothing is scanned.

fuzzer37··on Apple defends anti-child abuse imagery tech after claims of ‘hash collisions’
Or how about they just don't scan my phone at all.
fuzzer37··on Leaky sewers are likely responsible for large amounts of medications in streams
Don't like it? Move where there isn't radioactive water. /s
fuzzer37··on Home Depot is introducing power tools that won’t work if they’re stolen
why does it have to be biometric at all? Just make it 2FA. Make it so that the bracelet and the tool have to be within, say, 1m of each other and that seems like a viable solution (And obviously have the ability to disable this feature if the user wishes)
fuzzer37··on Launch HN: Exams, tasks, K8, eCommerce, cell sites, health, data quality, travel
Doesn't the name kind of clash with some already existing, relatively well known software? I was sort of confused when I saw the name of your company.

fuzzer37··on Papers every developer should read at least twice (2009)
And how is that relevant to the essay mentioned?
fuzzer37··on Muse Group Continues Tone Deaf Handling of Audacity
Sneedacity is a better name anyway.
fuzzer37··on Building a vision of life without work (2015)
He means Amogus
fuzzer37··on Casa Client Case Study: The Tinder Trap
So it is made up then.
fuzzer37··on Two Portland delivery companies revolt against Amazon, shut down
They're not getting paid to care, why should they?
fuzzer37··on Launch HN: Hedgehog (YC S21) – Cryptocurrency Portfolio Manager
Bigly
fuzzer37··on The Surveilled Student
Unequivocally, yes.
fuzzer37··on Third member of U.S. FDA advisory panel resigns over Alzheimer’s drug approval
Regulatory capture, and gutting regulatory organizations of any teeth they may have once had. The money is going somewhere, and it's not to help the average people.
fuzzer37··on OpenRGB: Open-source RGB lighting control
gamer girls.
fuzzer37··on Post Mortem: Incorrect Cache Configuration Exposes Personal Information
> This configuration change had been written by an authorized engineer in one team, consulting but misinterpreting vendor documentation. The change was then reviewed by three other authorized engineers in three separate teams, according to normal processes. None of them spotted the mistake in the configuration update.

Is anyone else shocked by this? Are code reviews worthless? An engineer made a change reviewed by 3 other people. It seems like _someone_ would notice.

fuzzer37··on Software is eating the car
I actually used to work as a test driver for FCA, and we were specifically told to report on knobs/dials not working or wiggling too much. Our training had us touch literally everything in the car that moved. Albeit, I'm not sure how much of that feedback was actually acted upon, based on the quality of some of those cars.
