ic4l··on This JavaScript can snoop on other browser tabs to work out what you're visiting
I'm not sure what sites you're visiting but most sites i have attempted to use with JS disabled simply did not function and thought I was a robot. I was then presented with a human verification process that required javascript to run.

But yes I can disable javascript on HN.

ic4l··on How I made my own RFID tag [video]
I am wondering this as well.
ic4l··on RawGit is now in a sunset phase and will soon shut down
If the time comes, sure.

Also it can be hosted for much less.

try replacing "rawgit.com" with "rawgit2.com"

For the time being I threw this up.

You should be able to replace rawgit.com, with rawgit2.com.

ic4l··on GDPR for lazy people: Block all European users with Cloudflare Workers
You do not need Apility to accomplish this.

Here is a example of blocking all EU country codes without using any external API's.

ic4l··on Organizers have unionized 5,000 contract workers at Apple, Facebook, Yahoo
I may have missed this discussion but if any place will have it first it most likely will be the tech communities. And may even involve cars being converted, and some sort of smart network technology. Instead of every card attempting to do this independently.

Tech companies should help these people transition out of wage slavery in a dying field.

Won't last long. Few more years, and it will be a autonomous fleet anyways.
ic4l··on Building a fast, secured and free static site in less than three hours
It's also worth noting that you can just toss cloud-flare in front of it to get HTTPS.
ic4l··on Why I Still Use Vim
So in other words use Sublime, or Vim.
ic4l··on Show HN: Proof-of-Work Vote counter widget
Interesting but can still be spammed, we need both techniques in play. This plus cookie/ip tagging.

    for (let i = 0; i < 20; i++) (() => {
    	const elem = document.querySelector('.votewdgt');
    	let widget = new VoteWidget(elem);
    
    	function vote () {
    		console.log('voted');
    		widget._state.voted = false;
    		widget.vote(vote);	
    	}
    	vote();
    })()
ic4l··on Show HN: IMG42 – Temporary Image Hosting
Weird, I think I added support for non-webgl browsers. But i tested on FF 45, and it worked :O
ic4l··on Show HN: IMG42 – Temporary Image Hosting
Yeah I still need to add support for non-WebGL browsers. Thanks for reminding me that they exist :).
ic4l··on GitHub is down
Standard push/pull working from south-east asia :)

edit: seems like they are back

ic4l··on Nile.js – A Peer-to-Peer Live Video Streaming Library built on WebTorrent
Is this similar to RTMFP / P2P Multicast?

(which adobe flash supported since ~2008 -_-, it's great to see some opensource competition in the "HTML5" field)

ic4l··on Bitcoin surges to all-time high above $1,700
Excited about this... I had $5,000 in cash that was supposed to be wired to me. They kept saying its in the process of being sent... Then one day I go on HN, and it says that MTGox is insolvent. Haha.
ic4l··on Bitcoin surges to all-time high above $1,700
My friend told me to buy $1000 worth of it when it was around 60 cents a coin. I thought he sounded crazy.

$1000 => $2.8M

:'(

ic4l··on Root – Programmable bank account for software developers
You are right... They asked him to delay the payments, and said everything was OK. He paid but then he later found out that the bank had other plans in mind.

This is why he eventually won the case... But the bank was already aware of this, and they were just going through the motions. Either way, be careful.

He did not get his house back though...

ic4l··on Root – Programmable bank account for software developers
Was a legit large bank. They did lose the case, and forked over for it but still... Had nothing to do with who was right or wrong and made shit very complicated. NEVER go 3 months without paying your payments no matter what anyone says the risks are way too high. Oh and always have a friend that is a lawyer ;)
ic4l··on Root – Programmable bank account for software developers
This is getting harder and harder. Chrome allows you to do a .click but it also sends a tainted flag. I'm not sure if headless browses also send non-tainted events.

Are there any US banks that offer such a credit card api at the transaction level where you can reject within XX seconds? Been looking for something like this forever, or is there a way to partner with a bank for less than $1m to do such a thing?
ic4l··on Root – Programmable bank account for software developers
Don't be so confident that the right thing happens always. I had a friend that was told he could delay a payment and they tricked him into paying late and they sold his home already... after many legal battles he eventually won but the bank said that they already sold the home so that we're in a losing situation either way. They picked the lesser of two evils. Form what i understand it was because two branches of the bank were working independently and they didn't properly relay information.
ic4l··on Ffffound is shutting down
Image not FFFFOUND
ic4l··on Tamper Chrome extension to modify requests in flight
Also reminds you that you should be CAREFUL with what extensions you install. As they can pretty much do whatever they want ;)

There is also the trusty Charles app (https://www.charlesproxy.com/)
ic4l··on Bangkok plans to ban all street food by year′s end
"Soi Thong Lor, Soi Ekkamai" are mainly areas catering towards "Hi So" individuals. While I don't agree with their decisions it does make sense.
ic4l··on Blink-dev – Intent to Ship: SharedArrayBuffer
This is GREAT! Transferable's didn't make sense in a few situations.
ic4l··on Show HN: React-data sheet, Excel-like spreadsheet component
I had to verify this... I cant believe it, they doing all the rendering logic for all the cells in canvas. They are not rendering simple cells either, sheets has may features :O.

Testing would be the easy part, in some cases it would be easier than DOM because you can do image diffs... The harder part is BUILDING IT.
