You can't unless you've chosen to back up your WhatsApp messages to iCloud/Google in which case it's Apple/Google responsible for preserving the messages and subject to their encryption standards, nothing to do with Meta.
Firefox offers this in the dropdown when typing a URL, there's a "Switch to Tab" option to take you straight to the existing tab instead of creating a duplicate.
This is explicitly accounted for, as per the README:
> Many Postgres clients also inspect the pg_catalog to determine system information so Postlite mirrors this catalog by using an attached in-memory database with virtual tables.
Whilst there is an element of lab measurement involved, they do use field measurement, so metrics are collated from users rather than their own connection. This means that your data could just as easily be skewed by a browser/OS update that rolls out to a ton of devices at once, as much as anything at your end.
Do agree that the proliferation of acronyms doesn't help with wrapping your head around it all!
Yep, that's exactly what Splunk have done - scroll down the release notes linked to by the grandparent and the faulty regex is shown.
What's super daft is the proposed fix is only a further sticking plaster, adding support for the 16... range (and the 2020s decade) rather than all future dates. So in a couple of years a further patch will be needed...
Not for long, it will be mandatory in the EU from the end of the year under the PSD2 regulations (though the deadline has moved back into 2021 for some countries, including the UK which is adopting them despite Brexit).
Issuers will start to decline card transactions for any merchants that submit payments that haven't gone through 3DS.
So very sad :( One of my all time favourite composers. Such emotive music that bring back so many memories, not least my wife walking down the aisle to me to Gabriel's Oboe. RIP.
There are a lot of DSL-driven diagramming tools out there, but most produce functional diagrams rather than visually appealing ones. Whilst these are fine for many use cases, there are plenty of others where the look is too dated, and something more modern is needed.
I'd love to see a DSL-driven tool emerge that has a real focus on design and the visual quality of its output, producing something along the lines of Whimsical[0] for example.
Not directly related to the story, but just for info - "British Telecom" is an incorrect name (it's not used in the BBC article). The company renamed from that to BT in 1991.
I have no objection to them offering Facebook/Google etc for those who wish to use them.
The problem is the lack of an alternative which is how this whole thread started - their approach allows you to choose between logging in via a third party, or logging into your email on the same device. It doesn't let you log into their website directly.
I wouldn't mind if they emailed you some kind of time-limited one time token you could enter on the other device, rather than using a conventional password. But all they supply is a lengthy link, which can only practically be opened on the device that has access to your email.
It's not so much the choice of email address (throwaway or not) but the fact that you physically can't log in on a machine where you can't/don't want to access your email. You can't access the link and it's too long and cumbersome to type out manually.
So your only choice is to access your (personal) email on a device where you may not want/be allowed to.
Medium is frustratingly guilty here. Your login choices are limited to sharing data with Google/Facebook/Twitter or clicking a magic link in an email.
If you don't like to share your data with third parties then you are basically restricted to logging in on devices that have access to your email. Which means you're stuffed when that doesn't apply.
Security at the expense of usability is fine when it's warranted. All too often it's not.
Seeing as you asked... your website's terrible UX doesn't help. I just took a look and moved on within 30 seconds - a dated look and feel (that also feels targeted at primary school teachers), walls of text, broken links, no clear route back to the homepage to reorient yourself (can't click the logo), no clear waypoints to follow...
You only get one chance to make a first impression. I'm afraid the first impression I got means I'm unlikely to return. I suspect the same applies to all those who took a look in March.
Tuple[0] is a new entrant in this space, still in alpha currently. I've never seen or used the tool, only know of it via Ben Orenstein's Art of Product podcast[1].
