And so long as people use that logic, we'll never live in that society.

A "petty battle against CloudFlare DNS users"? No. They require a standardized DNS extension in order for their services to operate properly, and CloudFlare is waging a petty battle against the standard.

It doesn't even matter whether the copyright owner likes it or knows about it or not. Selling a used book is legal.

Meanwhile, all the copies of those same books which were purchased by libraries are now sitting on library shelves, unable to be loaned out.

The copyright holders have already gotten paid.

That's pretty clearly exactly what they're arguing.

Yeah... that's very rare.

They are open ports which are accessible to the Internet at large. Or at least, any site you go to. If you don't like that there are various means to close off those ports to your browsers (Windows firewall, network namespaces, etc).

How is it not? Uniqueness would cease to matter between different tenants. They're unique by virtue of using a different database.

IMO this is a symptom of a larger problem with the entire web 'ecosystem' (HTML, CSS, JS primarily). It all tries (or tried, anyway) to be simple and easy and forgiving - which means that simple things are easy, and moderately complex things are insanely difficult.

I honestly think the only real solution is re-doing all of it 'from scratch', to make everything (a) stricter and (b) more normal/consistent.

(I think the extant transpilers/preprocessors tend to try to be too 'thin' of a wrapper around CSS/JS: they do give some nice quality of life features but still don't really clean up the mess that is JS and the DOM.)

You can always take a multi-tenant system and convert it into a single-tenant system a lot more easily. First and foremost, you can simply run the full multi-tenant system with only a single tenant, which if nothing else enables progressive development (you can slowly remove those now-unnecessary WHERE clauses, etc).

Open ports which are accessible to the Internet at large are not "machine internals". If you do not want someone to access your systems, then you should configure your systems to not allow that access.

> This makes sense as the programs being scanned for are all Windows remote access tools.

Wait. VNC is a Windows remote access tool? LOL.

You're assuming that the 'bad guys' pay attention and look closely enough to even see that this detection exists and figure out how to bypass it.

Knowledgeable developers are part of every language's ecosystem.

In Soviet Russia, your cell provider sells this data.

Wait, no, that's America. I was thinking of America.

I believe most if not all states seal juvenile records by default.

If so, then a court would have to unseal it.

As an example, in Texas, juvenile records are automatically sealed in most cases, and can basically only be released to the subject of the record, or a prosecutor in a future case.

> I did have an arrest warrant out for me and I turned myself in

Sounds like you technically were arrested.

> aren't allowed to use ... sealed court records against you

That's... basically what sealed means.

> California companies aren't allowed to use

Generally the law applies based on the employee's state of residence, not where the company is based.

Anyway... just answer their questions truthfully, but don't disclose anything about sealed records. I highly doubt they'll ask or care about arrests.

The fragment is, at the very least, exposed to JavaScript. It's also has several problems which are explicitly called out (for the query string) in your own link: Shoulder surfing, cache, history

Except we don't need to "solve the problem of high taxes on small business". We need to solve the problem of low taxes on big business.

"91 profitable Fortune 500 companies paid $0 in taxes in 2018 under Trump's tax law" https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-tax-law-fortune-500-com...

"The 379 profitable members of the Fortune 500 paid an effective federal tax rate of 11.3% last year" https://www.axios.com/fortune-500-companies-corporate-income...

Amazon, in particular, made over $10b in 2018, but the US government paid them over $100m.

ETA: And for comparison, I made $36k last year (missed a lot of time for health reasons) with a family of 3 (= negative profit, I'm still in debt from it!), and my tax rate is ~8%.

No, really? I would've never guessed.

Honestly, this misses the worst part of the ISO layout. PUT MY \| BACK WHERE IT BELONGS!

I honestly prefer just using right alt as a AltGr. Even have a custom Windows layout to re-create (parts of) the "US International (with dead keys)" layout from Linux/X/GNOME/wherever it comes from.

Instead of having to type <Compose ' o> for a ó, I just type <AltGr+o> (or alternatively, <AltGr+' o>, and similarly <AltGr+` o> for a ò)

> some kind of „International English“ ISO layout with a tall return key and a short left shift key

Those exist here in the US too. They're just a lot less common. I've had the misfortune of having one, in the past. Needed a new keyboard, went to the store, got the cheapest one, came home to... "what is this layout?!"

HTML 4 was not the standard at the time of Markdown. XHTML was.

Honestly, the single biggest problem with Markdown is that it's been implemented in so many different ways by so many different people. This is largely because a lot of corner cases were simply not defined.

When a website uses Markdown for input, it's extremely tough to be sure of how to format certain things, especially when multiple different syntaxes combine. (I'm thinking of things like list+code block; or bold+italics, or list+line break, etc.)

You should read the rest of the thread. It's likely a completely different drive.

> I don't know if there's a command Discovery for scsi that would let them know if things are supposed to be supported.

The OP shows errors that are reported to the OS by the drive when it attempts to use the command. Even if it can't pre-determine support for the command, it can fall back upon receiving an error.

Except that it receives an error, so if it's assuming that, it's wrong.

This command is not mandated to be supported. Therefore, if an OS assumes it is supported, that's an OS problem, not the drive.

> In 2018 alone, even with after-tax profits at record levels because of the Republican tax cuts, buybacks by S&P 500 companies reached an astounding 68% of net income, with dividends absorbing another 41%.

Uhh... well, that math doesn't check out.
