  • That's pretty nuts. I bet a lot of planning went into optimizing the time spent each week to make the most progress.

  • I don't know about evil, but my results have been filled with AI generated crap sites lately. I don't know if others are doing any better filtering them out, but it is making me think to look elsewhere besides ddg

  • The >!redeemed!< Dark Urge ending had me perplexed: >!Don't have kids or they'll probably murder for Bhaal, toodles!!<

  • While that definition sounds ideal, I think most people with side hustles are still working for someone, just with flexible hours. DoorDash, Uber, transcription, etc.

  • Sending passwords via email Will compromise any passwords sent via email.

    100%. But that is a different problem and a different attack vector than storing passwords in plain text for authentication. When reporting security issues, it's important to be precise.

  • Honestly, the thing keeping me from rolling it out to my family is that it isn't easy to override when you do want to see a site. Folks understand turning off uBlock Origin (or clicking proceed). I've only used Pi-Hole and NextDNS, but they really need a browser extension that will provide a better error message and an option to allow with a DNS cache clear.

  • Have you tried other private DNS servers? Curious if your Internet provider is blocking specific servers or DNS over HTTPS.

  • it means you can’t block ads without violating the DMCA. Browsers can have adblocker extensions, apps cannot (unless you hack them.)

    I imagine this is just going to lead to more people using DNS ad blockers. My phone literally can't access your ad server, sorry.

  • Why are the three Chrome derivatives missing features Chrome has? Is it a porting issue or are they just that far behind on pulling in upstream changes?

  • DHH is a contrarian. Any benefits of the cloud he might get are overridden by the fact that he needs to be different (and blog about it).

    See his stances on Typescript, workplace inclusion, TDD, etc.

  • A recent pilot in Prague enabled Hosts on Airbnb to trial Minut noise sensors, and found a reminder can be all that’s needed for a potential noise issue to be quickly resolved

    If a reminder is all that's needed, the device could be an offline decibel meter that lights up when the volume exceeds a threshold.

    Plus I'm sure parents are going to love their phone blowing up when little Billy is a bit too cranky at bed time.

  • Every website hosted in the US is subject to DMCA (or directly getting sued for copyright infringement). Even if you host your own website and refuse to comply with DMCA requests, they'll just send them to your hosting provider instead.

  • There's literally a column on the chart for that.

  • It was made by an edgelord for edgelords.

    CuckCuckGo belongs in the trash instead.

  • You've changed the perspective to potential wait time for male passengers. That may be true but it doesn't have an adverse impact on male drivers, which is what was stated in the comment I replied to.

    It is objectively always better to be in the women+ group than outside of it.

    Based on Ubers data, women+ are raped five times as often in ride shares. "Objectively" I bet a lot of women+ would choose "maybe a longer wait" over "5x chance of being raped".

  • The protected category doesn't matter, I don't see how anyone is getting a leg up or being held back by the feature.

  • The option allows customers to prioritize drivers...

    Nope, it doesn't. The feature is for drivers, not passengers.

  • Explain how sorting the list of available passengers by gender is discrimination? It's being rolled out in huge metropolitan markets so there will be enough drivers for everyone to get one.

  • Your comment makes no sense given the details provided in the article. The toggle runs a gender-based sort on available passengers when a driver indicates they're ready to pick up a new passenger.

    • Male driver, without this toggle, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by current algorithms.
    • Female+ driver, with this toggle off, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by current algorithms.
    • Female+ driver, with this toggle on, indicates they're ready for a passenger? All waiting passengers are sorted by gender then current algorithms.

    At no point does the pool of available passengers for male drivers decrease.

  • riders were the accused party 43% of the time in sexual assault incident reports
