A good example of a time where you really need to full-ass it.
Algebra is OP
No, no, they have a point: The original native population DID do a better job… But then Republicans and Democrats.
Cuz iz ez, am lazy
YOU JUST OUTED YOURSELF, PUNK! That was a trap and you FELL for it!
Amazon is not an ISP though…? In this scenario, Amazon Prime Video is a server that is receiving a series of HTTP requests. User agent spoofing absolutely would work in that scenario.
That’s a good point-- I’m on board with that.
Well, have a nap
THEN FIRE ZE SAMSUNG & LG CEOS!
Why is it always this one photo of Gabe? It’s like a meme format that journalists use unironically any time Steam comes up.
That looks really cool. It will help me live out my fantasy of having a handful of ants in my pocket that I can deploy at any moment.
Poor server-side error handling is a big turnoff for me, unsubbed.
That’s super interesting. How do you get started at something like that? Or where would a newcomer start to learn more about it?
Really? I haven’t heard anything about that.
Can you explain?
Probably because it seems to mostly be targeted at Chinese-Canadians on Chinese language platforms that are often hosted in China. Like good luck regulating what happens on Weixin/WeChat.
For stuff like radio and print based in Greater Vancouver, yeah maybe there are some levers to pull, if we could ever decide what exactly is not allowed.
It’s hard to tell exactly what to think about this… Like the story doesn’t mention anything about uncovering a CCP-sponsored media agency, or radio ads paid for by the CCP or any kind of credible threats against voters who vote “wrong…” It just says “These messages were amplified through repetition in social media, chat groups, posts and in Chinese language online, print and radio media throughout the [Greater Vancouver Area].”
Okay? Amplified by whom? Amplified how? It sounds like just normal run-of-the-mill political propaganda, and it isn’t even clear (from the article) that the CCP is even involved.
But then:
“According to Chinese Canadian interview subjects, this invoked a widespread fear amongst electors, described as a fear of retributive measures from Chinese authorities should a CPC government be elected,” the report says.
“This included the possibility that travel to and from China could be interfered with by Chinese authorities, as well as measures being taken against family members or business interests in China.”
So still, it’s kinda like… Well were threats actually made? But that’s the thing with authoritarianism-- People don’t need an explicit threat. They just need to know that somebody has tools of oppression and an opinion about how you should behave, and they might be paying attention to you.
Like how a mobster can get away with “that’s a nice family you’ve got there.” That’s not a threat, merely a friendly observation.
So it seems like the conclusion of the article just amounts to “well whatever it was, it doesn’t seem to be illegal,” which feels a little… Unresolved.
Uhh I dunno if there’s any salvaging that hypothetical, lol… But if bananas start costing $1 each, we’re in trouble.
And their customers (e.g. manufacturers, transportation providers) factor in both those price hikes and the carbon taxes that they themselves need to pay, and pass those costs on to their customers, and so forth until finally end consumers are paying for several rounds of carbon tax that’s priced into more expensive goods and services.
In many cases, there’s nowhere for market forces to displace the inefficiency, so things just get more expensive without changing supply chains much.
Err… Is your team doing planning during standup? I’ve never heard of that, from either people who are on teams that use standups, or from any of the Agile/Scrum literature that I’ve seen. In my experience, standups are typically about either a) coordinating the execution of work that has already been committed to, or b) whoops just a status meeting and everybody’s tuned out.
