Obscure password requirements
  • Or by generating the hashes of all expected permutations of the password the user has just set, and keeping them until the next password is set to compare against. Granted, that would be a prodigious number, but technically doable.

  • Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT
  • Vandalism is always reverted on SO, even if done by the original author. No knowledge is lost. Suing OA for violating the CC-BY license might be possible, but I'd wager SO is not interested in suing them, and since they hold the rights, not much can be done by others.

  • Like Putin, Viktor Orbán is learning he can act with impunity: the cash keeps flowing | Katalin Cseh
  • The standard of living in Hungary has been constantly declining since orbán has been in power. His voter base is still going strong nonetheless, especially among the poorest. These people have no future, but also no present either - they'll vote for the name they hear the most often, or the one their employer tells them to. They being mostly jobless, that employer being the village mayor via the public works programme, and usually a puppet of orbán as well. Checkmate, liberal democracy.

  • Sanders says he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible ‘with an organization like Hamas’
  • Thanks for the non-dismissive reply and for the additional context. Just to clarify, I have only voiced my view on the "avoid killing innocents when others are in danger" situation - I admittedly lack the knowledge regarding the big picture to be able to pass judgement or offer solutions. But it seems the answer to your last question is pretty clear: everybody involved in this situation in any way is bad for some degree.

  • Sanders says he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible ‘with an organization like Hamas’
  • Imagine a comic strip where the Joker is holding a kid hostage at gunpoint. With his other gun he repeatedly shoots random people on the street. Batman shows up but does nothing, for he doesn't want the boy to die. Bam, another passerby dead. And another. Bam-bam, this time it's a twofer. Then Superman shows up and eye-lasers the Joker cleanly in half along with the kid.

    Whose action resulted in fewer deaths?

  • Sanders says he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible ‘with an organization like Hamas’
  • This. In a modern society there's no natural right (or even a need) to own firearms.

    And it's hard to imagine that Hamas could smuggle weapons, build rockets in basements, set up launchers between apartment blocks, fire missiles and return to step one - if the people of Palestine actually opposed them. But since they are able to do all of this, at least a significant portion of the people must actively support them and basically everyone else needs to tolerate their presence and activities.

  • What are your favourite things under 50$ that make your life a bit easier or more pleasant?
  • Thanks for the heads up, I had no cracking issues yet, but after years of daily use the screen protector got worn out and the kickstand broke loose. Now I'm on the second one of the same model, but it's still going strong with no real issues.

  • What are your favourite things under 50$ that make your life a bit easier or more pleasant?
  • These are the things I'm glad I got back then and would get again if they broke, that fit the price category:

    • an onion comb for dicing
    • shoehorn with a long handle
    • 3 stage knife sharpening station
    • wireless phone charger (no more fiddling in the dark with the cable)
    • magnetic keychain holder (from AntPocket tools)
    • Unicorn Beetle Pro phone case and belt holster (if you're on board with the aesthetic)
    • a pair of Klim earbuds (wired, with foam tips)
  • What job doesn't require reading ability?

    Hypothetically, if a colleague has repeatedly demonstrated the utter lack of reading comprehension skills (like pulling the same door labelled "push" for the hundredth time), what job could one suggest for them where this "disability" wouldn't be detrimental?

    I just realized how incredible it is that we don't have toes growing out of our ears.

    AFAIK it all boils down to the fact that during embryonal development our cells, which at that point were just a blob of undifferentiated autonomous chemical machines, somehow managed to unanimously agree upon the cardinal directions (up-down, left-right, front-back) for future development - and thanks to this, we don't have toes growing out of our ears.
