I agree this is true for the economist readers, but I clicked the link thinking this was about how Dropbox (in a company) is an obvious target for privilege escalation (for red teams and hackers), which also sounds plausible and interesting.
But I don't mind, after a few seconds of loading my mistake was obvious.
Like comments? ;)
Longest? Yes, they actually use actual wall clock time. I don't think this metric makes any sense. I don't know about the others, I stopped reading at this point.
The difference is that nowadays people can just skip the research part and copy-paste Llama. No value added.
Serious "hackers" are usually state sponsored now, or members of mature groups.
I am certain many of them honestly believe that they are doing the right thing and that they are helping. After all hey, they implemented a feature or fixed a bug for the community! It's a grim worldview if you think they are all just selfish.
It was long after university after I learned that it's also an English word.
So there's no point in wasting time on this, if perceived problems are low or nonexistent. Current maintainers probably look at it from a technical pov "it's just a name, who cares"
But... That's not how days off work.
What? Do you seriously think that wealthy people only want to move to the US? It's a wild claim, especially considering we're in a comment section of a post about immigration to Japan.
For cron, despite years of looking at it, I can never remember what those numbers mean and I need to Google almost every time.
For example I don't leave my house often, so a walking protest in the middle of a city has zero chance to reach me. HN post does.
Please never type something like this again.
>Same should apply to any ex-Russian military, any foreign ex-intelligence too. This isn't a harsh take.
This is a harsh take. And why foreign? Should NSA employees kill themselves too? American soldiers? What a wild take.
And nobody says that tickets must not be cancelable. Just no reselling on your own.
Looks like you're pretty sure of that. Every time I see argument like this delivered with confidence I wonder how is it different from, say, digital calculators. Or better yet, books - Greek philosophers moaned that young people will stop understanding anything and just check books when they want to know anything.
