This. Why would it need access to my files?

Guess we'll never know now.

On a business where the objective is increasing your wealth?

This also looks like a nice addition.

People donate organs knowing it could reduce their life span.

Humanity might get wiped but the world will stay where it is. What amount of energy is necessary to actually destroy the world?

If the file doesn't have a copyright notice, I'd assume the author is the website's owner and its license should apply.

Maybe there should be a convention to add a copyright.txt file to websites like there is robots.txt and humans.txt?

Why can't they have a development branch while still keeping their LTS branch?

And people who use NoScript are safe from of any kind of javascript attack vectors.

So Chocolatey is gonna use OneGet in the back? I was thinking it would be a package provider for OneGet instead.

> We needed phone numbers for our upcoming features.

> The newer version which won't need phone number to login is on its way.

So which is it? new features need the phone number but the new version won't require it? Are you gonna ask users for permission to use their phone number to access the new features? Will users who prefer their anonymity be able to interact with users who surrender their identification?

Isn't the unique token good enough?

Simply change the alias to something else:

    alias doh='$(thefuck $(fc -ln -1))'

It's interesting that their business bases on Google not fixing this problem.

What happens when they fix it?

I really like the twig template engine [0]. It will compile your template back to PHP code so it will run as fast as if you used PHP directly.

The guy posted it in 4chan, an anonymous image board. Shouldn't that make it public domain? If he copyrighted it after that, shouldn't people be able to use the version of the image they got before the copyright?

Also, 4chan doesn't keep archives, how do we know he's the original author anyway?

They could listen to the DOMSubtreeModified event in the 10s div.

It makes sense to add the watermark as a low-hanging-fruit tracking system so the leaker simply stops at blurring it and doesn't look further.

Only because it's standard are you not supposed to complain with something problematic?

> Okay, so the systemsetup binary simply checks if we are running as the root user?

>Philip tried patching that function (replacing sete with setne), with success:

How do you patch the binary without root or the admin user password anyway?

Maybe it should be renamed to YouColorMe

Does this still applies to MongoDB 3.0? since it seems to be a rewrite with a new storage engine [1].

Facebook payed $12500 for a bug that could delete albums:

I find duckduckgo equally effective and they don't need to build a profile on me to do it.

That article is attacking the current implementation, but I'm looking more at the idea and want to see where it goes. Implementations can be made better.

I'm looking forward more at Soylent[0] than lab-grown meat.

Add a separate +1/thumbs-up button next to the arrow. It doesn't really need to do anything more than show that people are in agreement (better even if it can do it without showing numbers).

The software runs on your server so you could spoof the checker.

I doesn't necessarily need to be GitHub itself, any hosting with a reputation could host your software and verify which git commit it is pointing to.

The only way I can think of is giving trusted auditors periodical access to the server and have them make fingerprints of the code/data for others to compare. I think this is what some bitcoin exchanges do, for example.

Almost all the node.js ecosystem consist of external non-official packages. I don't get your point.

I guess they learned the money is in the application store.
