Magic links are susceptible to man in middle attacks if your DNS is compromised, like on public WiFi, because the reset token is in the URI itself. So you're most vulnerable when you click the link.
I was just about to comment on magic and pokemon cards! Maybe even baseball packs. All could be traded for real cash, and obviously were! It's such a grey line though, the original intent of the cards is to not be traded around for cash, but be used to play games or simply collect (without the intent to sell) and be enjoyed.
To be frank, I'm glad the world is cracking down on the digital forms of this, I think it's a bit corrupt-- explicitly targeting minors with considerably less self-control. In my opinion, it's right up there with apps that use in-game currency gems/coins that you can purchase with real money; because kids targeted by that game audience often don't understand the repercussions on such activities. I think there needs to be a very fine line drawn where a child cannot make a digital purchase, even if inadvertent. Regardless. It shouldn't be a "we suggest you set up parental controls", literally the device should be locked down from entirely preventing such behavior and must then be overrode by an adult.
I don't understand in general why OLED is taking so long to be mass produced for TVs and monitors. It's like just now becoming mainstream, with what seems like two actually purchasable products.
"scheme web framework", except there are multiple scheme implementations and variants. I don't understand why the word scheme is even used, each scheme is basically a silo.
How does this differ or compete with platforms such as patreon? Also I signed up and it defaulted to Artist, I feel like major category type should be chosen during onboarding. Also, sign in with Google should be a thing I think.
I second this. Write a basic game with 2d graphics, use SDL, and save and load the state to file. To take it a step further and write a networked version with your own basic byte encoding if each move and game state to keep in sync. This would teach you a ton of various topics.
The last two bother me especially. Only thing I can think of is that bodies are expendable and for police that means good second skins, they get first or second dibs. No need for cyborg parts when blasters kick so much butt.
The stack backup reasoning is lame, "too expensive" is not really defining, and if a stack can be transferred to another stack, having two with one in a strongbox seems logical. You possibly lose memories then, but live on. It seems to come down mostly to money and socioeconomic disparity. At one point someone says, fixing a broken leg is too expensive. That's ridiculous
Good point! I think you'd have to implement a lock of some sort, and check for it in application logic-- that way both can be updated simultaneously... not ideal!
> any possibility of ambiguity is effortlessly dealt with
"(+ 1)" is rather ambiguous and evaluates to 1, compared to "1 + ", which is very straight forward-- it's an incomplete expression and no evaluation can be done.
