Maybe they edited README.md by hand.
This is the new normal, it seems. My developer colleagues are bragging about how long it has been since they wrote a line of code.
One of these two men is a waste of space, and it ain’t Mamdani.

We built the library. Someone else started charging admission.
Capitalism working as intended.
5·18 days agoFor information about fingerprinting techniques there’s this site:
https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/
It has been around for a few years so there are almost certainly other techniques it doesn’t mention.
Good stuff, but you seem have an editing mistake: most of the article is repeated after the conclusion.
7·25 days agoFor the AUR I think anything goes.
20·1 month agoThe article is worth reading. It describes what kind of credit scoring system does exist in China, and what is sensationalized Western propaganda.
Projection is what they do best.
I think of it as being made by one of few really trustworthy organizations in tech.
For some reason all I see is a picture, not the article. Here’s the link in case anyone else has the same problem:
VPNs don’t prevent a device from announcing its real location. And they protect you from a MITM at the ISP but not at the VPN provider, so you just switch who you trust. VPNs also don’t do anything to help with the browser fingerprinting that companies use to track you around the web. From the point of view of the services and sites you connect to, all a VPN does is change your IP address, and the IP address may not be a big part of how they track you in the first place. VPNs alone do not improve privacy much at all.
What VPNs do is shield your traffic metadata from inspection by the network hops between your client and the VPN provider (though the content is almost always enxrypted even without the VPN), and change your apparent location for any service that is exclusively using IP-based geolocation.
4·2 months agoI don’t get what was wrong with forums in the first place, that motivated this shift to Discord. Forums seem far more usable.
That might be the point at which people go and pop the bubble themselves, using pitchforks.

Yes, I have always enjoyed trying to create elegant architecture and code, more than I get satisfaction from the end result. I’ve always found it frustrating how many colleagues were prepared to throw together any old junk as long as the right thing came out in the end. On the positive side, maybe the AI does raise the quality of what some of them contribute.
