That is clearly bad. I was commenting based on the privacy point of it, not the user experience. On the privacy part it is also strange that fingerprints, something we leave copy off all over the place, is considered private and safe information, instead of something that is easy to copy and relatively easy to spoof
Is that good or bad? Maybe a naive thought but the first I think is that check every time is to check biometrics matches with what is in the passport without storing them, checking only once mean your picture and fingerprint is stored a central place and is used in combination to later verify that the passport is yours
You are looking at it the wrong way. Driving something so large that it would require a commercial license to transport your family around is ridiculous
How did you get siding with Amazon from giving up on the Kobo website? There are more than two options, re-reading some of the dead-tree variants I have would keep me occupied for years. Hopefully a new alternative would come out before I run out of space for books
I did consider a Kobo, but the terrible website did turn me away. When trying to browse it was wait for button on tracking consent to be active so I could click reject. Then change language to what I'm fluent in instead of getting language based on IP, reject tracking, reject changing region back to IP based and the same two reject for every link clicked. Half the times pages was still shown in language based on my location instead of what I have set or what my user agent tell I want.
When a site ask about allowing tracking for every page shown I assume the company care more about selling PII than getting customers, so not a company I want to use
Changing gears while driving? Are you sure you where supposed to? Many old tractors are without synced drives, so you are supposed to select gear before you start driving. Of course you can change when driving, but then you have to match revs to not get the drop betwen
All-wheel drive doesn't help you at all where it is most important, and that is in braking. Having all-wheel drive only helps you get up to a dangerous speed faster when the grip is low
Yes, big companies can copy your product. But at what cost, especially when including opportunity cost and the levels of bureaucracy in larger companies? I have heard your question many times during the last 20 years, and still there are more software startups.
In many cases it would cost them less to buy your company than to create it from scratch. Which is why so many small companies are acquired instead of copied. The question should be more what do you want to do and are you able to follow up on creating a startup? Writing the code is a small part of creating a successful startup
Try to use any Google site while traveling. I have two languages in my Accept-Language header, but Google always give me language based on location if I'm not logged in. There are also many other sites that does the same, often without any option to change language
Nice looking demos, I hope to some day manage to get results close to what you have.
I started playing around with GLSL recently and the closest I have come to describing working with it is that it is like creating poetry using math. Getting started was much easier than I expected, getting good results is so far as hard as expected
Not only that. When your self-host goes down your customers complain that you are down. When AWS goes down your customers complain that internet is down
The problem with blood tests in my experience is all the false positives, skin prick tests are often used based on result from blood tests. But when having many allergies it is normal to only check for the most severe using skin prick tests.
Food diaries are probably good for those that are more experimental in what they eat, the difficult part come when it is a combination of things that give a reaction. The most important is to learn to listen to your body and not buy into peer pressure when someone urge you to try something new that you are not sure about
It would be great if there was accurate tests for allergies. Blood tests shows what you absolute should stay away from, you maybe should be careful with, and what to do more testing with. Then there are different tests to learn more, but in the end they end of with learn to read your body's reaction and stay away from things you react badly to.
And yes, this have made me a picky eater, not because I don't want to try new things but because the setting with trying new things is in most cases not the settings where you want to get the bad reactions
I did probably not formulate myself good enough. By calling it ID theft you are blaming the person the ID belongs to and that person have to prove they are innocent.
By calling it by the correct words, bank fraud, the bank have to prove that the person the ID belongs to did it. No ID was stolen, it was only used by someone else to commit fraud. The banks don't have enough security to stop it because they have gotten away with calling it ID theft and putting the blame on the person the ID belongs to
We should also stop calling it ID theft. The identity is not stolen, the owner do still have it. Calling it ID theft is moving the responsibility from the one that a fraud is against (often banks or other large entities) to an innocent 3rd party
That brings back memories. I remember using that article when creating a simple racing game for a school project in 2005. Using that game I found that the car I was using for a starter series in rallycross at the same time had higher top speed in 4th gear than 5th because of a lack of power
In today's world with all the SPAs that don't push to history or don't manage to open the correct page based on history, this seems like a valid requirement
