Really nice hacking; well done.

I wonder who t0st is. He lives in Moscow according to Twitter. This type of work is usually done to find vulnerability in code e.g. buffer overflows. Injecting a piece of code to program machine code is a technique used in system hacking or software piracy. I can bet t0st is working or has worked for FSB. Anyway, not that is matters... it is still fun to think about it

What is your experience with other framework than React? Which one is the least stable, i.e. hardest to scrape?

Such tax has a distribution effects similar to universal income but with tons of distortions. This tax will have effect on people's decisions to work from home. Why not just pay for it with higher progressive income tax.

How much did these guys pay to get on this submarine?

This reminds me of the movie: https://www.netflix.com/title/80202236?s=a&trkid=13747225&t=...

They are not that air-tight... see this cat on one of the pictures (https://pics.livejournal.com/igor113/pic/001g7xxp). He was a part of a cat unit used to test submarines for air-tightness. Soviets would lock such unit up on a submarine for a week... if cats are dead, submarine is air-tight. One of the picture survived! Though I heard that cat survivability was close to 100%. Only reported cat fatalities were due to bad food.

Community is shutting down. Does it mean the entire company is closing? What other businesses or clients do they have?

I've got it done without sedatives 10 years. It was quite a ride. They went only half way and I had enough. It was literally a gut-wrenching experience.

Jigsaw 2.0?

mkuklik — Thu, 15 Oct 2020 06:19:26 +0000

Why no one has revived a crowdsourcing business contacts platform like jigsaw.com, which was acquired by Salesforce and shutdown in 2010?

https://youtu.be/cmETioVtRG0 Trying to build this on a smaller scale using Arduino, 25 droplets. Goal is to make it as cheap as possible. Interesting software problem is how to control many arduino's in synchronized fashion. Stack is C++ Arduino <- serial -> C++ ESP 8266 <- wifi -> server in go and websocket.
