Ha! The hex/exe patch! Had to do the same thing. This issue also sent me down the path of downloading cutter and trying to reverse engineering/interpret the .exe.

Yep. I was pretty confused because I worked on a COVID scheduling app hosted on a Salesforce "Site" (guest user, public site, whatever terminology use for it nowadays). Salesforce recently then had pushed a guest user security update that restricted object permissions to read. The only way you could let an anonymous/guest user write/modify was to write explicit Apex (backend Java-like language for Salesforce) to do that logic.

Albeit, we had many Salesforce developers, but we were VERY focused on security. I was pretty happy with how it turned out, because other COVID vaccine providers in the area that were using Salesforce were struggling -- https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2021-06-11/hellsite-aus...

If anyone is curious, the scheduler I worked on is https://vaccine.heb.com/scheduler . Don't work there anymore, but I love that team!

You mentioned USB debugging is enabled, any luck connecting up via ADB and poking around? If `adb shell` and trying to look at the filesystem doesn't work, maybe try this out to unlock the phone https://github.com/oberien/adb-remote-control

Oof, I liked Gamestream compared to the alternatives. Would be nice to see some clarification if this is just for Shield, or if they plan to kill Gamestream use all together...

There's an open source implementation of the Gamestream called Sunshine that does pretty well, but it's got a few kinks still (no HDR support).

> You don't really need to jailbreak your LG tv to install custom apps(like adfree Youtube), you can just put it in developer mode and have a cron somewhere(I use Pipedream) that keeps activating developer mode every 24h or so(it deactivate itself every 48h)

I've been doing this as well. I love the idea of rooting but not being able to get system updates bugs me a bit.

FCC needs to care about stability through statistics like packet loss. In my hometown area, the sole DSL provider in my area oversold capacity and it demolished the DSLAM. Ironically, they also took advantage from the Connect America fund to do this. I did connectivity tests to various hosts throughout the days, pings were 500ms+ 40% of the time and packet loss was 1%.

I can't be the only one that this happened to.

I just evaluated SF functions and it didn't seem too great, especially for the $$$. Especially since one could setup an AWS lambda with the newer function url + IAM user auth, where AWS sig4 is already supported by Salesforce's Named credential system.

Market is very hot still and in favor of the candidate, atleast from my perspective. But I have 10+ years experience.

For anyone who loved WoW (especially the early days), I highly recommend checking out the WoW diary, by John Staats.

Not only was he an environment/dungeon/zone designer, but he recorded so much about the games development in the alpha stages. One of my favorite tidbits was how they worked to optimize the game for 56k back then. They got it to work extremely well with just a couple Kb/s!

I was on a project that used Google's Enterprise captcha v3 (passive mode, with all that "AI" jazz) and it was hot garbage. We tested against it using a simple selenium script and even though `navigator.webdriver` was true, it still gave 9/10 "likely a human".

Ironically, I just switched away from TMobile to AT&T due to the recent data breach.

I think there's a way with the more advanced routers to intercept all outgoing DNS queries and redirect them.

It's important to note that this study is focused on Adolescents.

I used to do something similar with WinPopUp (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Messenger_service). Kids will find a way.

This. It's an apples to oranges comparison. People often write in Node for the speed that they can develop. Golang's current language design does not aim for development speed, although I think it's getting better/easier.

Feels similar to comparing C# to C.

Considering it was a failed product, made open source, I don't think they were necessarily concerned total browser compatibility.

I worked a tiny bit over a year around 2013 at a hospital network and was on a team that maintained custom integrations with Cerner, an EHR system.

It was by far one of the coziest jobs I ever had. Low stress environment, redundant meetings, etc. But development of any kind of god awful. It was extremely sluggish, lots of red type, and seemed to follow a manual QA approach over any sort of automated testing. Things were just too lax in general.

Myself and another junior developer left after we noticed that an intermediate engineer on our time hadn't committed in over 3 months.

My point of this story is that hospitals didn't seem to attract/retain passionate software developers. With high turnover or apathetic developers, most software built custom for hospitals is probably Frankensteined.

Thanks, I own this same computer, installed Archlinux on it, and while Bluetooth has always worked ok, this did seem to speed up things.

I'm pretty close to switching to this as my daily driver, but there's some small things, like Django Template formatting (https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/46468) that have yet to be fixed/working.

Single Member LLC's also have the downside of being "bullied" by lawsuits.

In most States, you will be required to have a lawyer represent yourself. You cannot represent yourself (pro se). So in cases where a lawsuit is frivolous, it can be incredibly expensive, whenever you could of just filed a Motion to Dismiss, etc, yourself.

That's pretty awesome!

The site has changed quite a bit then. Now you would of never been able to message her unless she "liked" you.

The payload for the visitor API payload was an object containing an array whose key was `stalkers`, so still the same!

good point!

Hey, thanks for reading.

The point I was trying to make is that we need to hold everyone to be accountable / secure. Just because no one is actively exploiting the data in a huge fashion (ie. Cambridge Analytica) doesn't mean it we should let go.

I'm terrible at following the news by the way :(

> "It’s not hard to infer that React was a key reason why Facebook was able to do this [release Snapchat clone features] so rapidly."

This is a huge jump man. I think you're broadly generalizing stuff here.

The book "Founder's Dilemma" has some case studies around this, if I remember correctly.

summary : Be cautious as hell.

Your #2 is illustrated well by the thoughts of Robert Pirsig (Art of Motorcycle Maintenance), and our need to switch to a knowledge-based mindset instead of a grade-based mindset.

This post explains it well: https://mic.com/articles/74727/zen-and-the-art-of-motorcycle...

"Since you are likely to use open source frameworks. Go to the Github repo of the respective framework. Search the error in the issues section and you are likely to find your solution. If not, open an issue."

Hopefully people don't misconstrue this to be "I got an exception (mis)using this framework, HALP". It's hard to search for real bugs if Github issues becomes a help desk.

Anytime you start focusing on monetization of a side project, it stops being a side project and more of a "startup". Your mindset has to change around it entirely. You now have to consider marketing, your audience, and legality.
