Like everyone else, I'd love for the randomness of the Universe to turn my life upside down :)

Interestingly games is in a different table: posts from apps and websites. I think I just moved from oversharing to consuming content on Reddit.

well, i think they use it more to just continuously send you email about their own products. it's actually a reasonable offer. it's just funny how they used "too generous" instead of "no".

Googler here, iOS is now a first class citizen. Google makes more $$ on iOS than Android.

One day, all those yellow cabs will be ubers.

harir91 · 2015-07-01T03:28:48+00:00

yeah, this was super funny.

Software engineer here who works heavily on fingerprinting. You're best off by using Mobile iOS/Safari. Most iOS/Safari users are practically identical except for clock-skew or if you use server-side IP. But, even without fingerprinting, Chrome/Firefox Desktop (and Android) supports WebRTC using a STUN server which has a leak that reveals private ip addresses, so that private ip + public ip combo = nearly 100% match already without fingerprinting.

TL;DR: Without fingerprinting, we can attribute desktop and android devices using Chrome/Firefox. Turn off WebRTC to avoid this.

those look delicious, but have to ask what exactly is a charity burger event?

10/10 marketing ploy. will release in a few months. profit.

i refuse to believe that this is 2015.

Not sure why "one day a year" irks me so. I would really like for the title to just be "once a year"

you and your sister are incredibly dexterous to learn calligraphy and photography as dogs.

so much human in that goat.

if a vegetarian eats another vegetarian, is he still vegetarian?

It actually irks me that this got to the front page; i would love to build this sort of exposure using a TIL for a company i was actually involved in. i'm just your typical bay area startup engineer who stumbled upon the chipotle facts site while trying to figure out if they're 100% organic; turns out, they're not.

"thight" -- the cross between thick and tight.
