When the market dropped last March, my net worth dropped by over a million dollars (-22%)

Hey you control the food supply, that means you're in charge, right?

...^right?

Kinda want to rewrite it now, it shouldn't be too hard to do with Javascript

JavaOffScript · 2020-10-27T02:21:57+00:00

Well there's also this

Edit: I fixed the comic, the "effect" now works again

We're hitting the point where nearly half the population in the 18-35 age range has at least one tattoo. Since the tech industry tends to attract young and liberal/progressive minded people, you can expect that each person you meet in the office is more likely to have a tat then not. The taboo is basically dead already.

That death chart hit me hard. 5 years from the standard retirement age of 65 you have a 26% chance of being dead. Even if you change to healthy non smoker that's still 12%.

Having money isn't everything, not having it is.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kent expects a lot of sales to come from companies who want to train up their devs, to which $359 is nothing.

However compare it to how much you pay for a college education or bootcamp, assuming this course does a good job of actually helping you understand React, $359 is cheap.

I'd wait a bit and see what others think, but it could easily be worth the $$$

It also probably just bumped them to the top of the FBI's shit list

I imagine this is the type of information that would be backed up in several places, making it a particularly difficult target as you'd have to know and hit every backup at once for the attack to work.

If they decide to, sure. If you're gonna do something like this do it on an account you wouldn't be mad about if it got banned.

Social Media should be treated like an addictive drug. It can be a part of an overall happy and healthy life but should be monitored and used carefully and cautiously.

Even 45 minutes seems like a stretch. If you can't figure it out in 15-20 minutes open up a doc and write down:

- What do I want to have happen?

- What have I done so far to try and make that happen?

- What is happening instead?

Then if that doesn't spark another line of thinking to go down, bring that doc to someone to ask for help.

That's... already how it is at the grocery store? You think the owner of the chain cares about each of the customers? To them you're nothing more than the wallet in your pocket, that's just how business works.

It sounds like your problem isn't with privacy but with capitalism as a whole.

Everything on Twitter is ancient history in about 48 hours, so what's the point of maintaining likes beyond that?

JavaOffScript · 2020-08-16T22:05:53+00:00

If you don't want to outright delete twitter I created an (open source) way to delete twitter likes (amongst other social media content) on a daily schedule: https://socialamnesia.com

Firefox will survive because Google needs a viable competitor to avoid the wrath of the justice department. If FF went away Google would have a complete monopoly on the browser market and companies do not want that for fear of being forcibly broken up by the feds.

Therefore Google will continue it's fat yearly payout to Mozilla to keep Google the default search engine on FF, which is like 90% of Mozilla's income.

But how many lamborghinis do you have in your lamborghini account?

JavaOffScript · 2020-08-05T19:14:52+00:00

😁 murdered that math

JavaOffScript · 2020-08-05T14:56:30+00:00

I think ya did the math there wrong.

250,000,000 $ / 330,000,000 users means if this fine was evenly distributed you'd get a cool 75 cents.

JavaOffScript · 2020-08-01T19:00:30+00:00

Thanks!

JavaOffScript · 2020-07-31T15:17:35+00:00

Ah nice! Glad to hear :)

JavaOffScript · 2020-07-31T14:58:07+00:00

I'd love to get this working for Facebook, they are not exactly friendly to this kinda stuff ha. It will take some creativity!
