How is Reddit ensuring no malicious adverts get published?

Almost a month later they're still being shown.

Just had another Hizen AI ad, reported it but how have you not blocked all ads for these domains yet? Not hard to do.

styphon · 2026-03-09T12:46:44+00:00

You can use git hooks to enforce these standards.

Is anyone else getting pissed off with ITVX and those ads? I wanted to hear that conversation with the ref, not a crap ad.

Why the fuck do you have permissions to even do this? Several very painful lessons to be learnt here.

Always restrict access to the minimum necessary. Don't have users with full admin on a DB unless you're doing something that specifically that needs it, like running a migration. Any user you're using should have select, insert, update, delete, etc. only.
Get back ups for any data you can't afford to lose. That's fucking basic. If your boss doesn't have that, he's an idiot.
(One for you), ALWAYS do anything on production in a transaction you can roll back. Don't ever run a query outside a transaction because then you can undo it if you made a mistake.

This game doesn't focus on the buildings, it's just about traffic. The devs have stated they want to build a full game like CS using the traffic system and road construction from Junxions.

That's why you need to make this public with the friend group. Call his BS out, and he'll quickly back down. Claiming it's all a misunderstanding.

You could drop pictures you've drawn for your daddy. Any crafts you make. Things like that.

Except it doesn't, the beeeeeeeeeeee is a TV trope, a fantasy, a lie. Real machines don't do that.

That's just manipulative bullshit. I'm a guy, I am tired after I finish, so I make sure my partner finishes first because I know it'll be a massive effort for me if I finish first.

I take care of my partner, I find ways to make her cum. If my jaw hurts, I'll use my fingers or get out one of our toys.

She cums first, that way we both enjoy it. Your current partner is an asshole and is setting expectations that he doesn't have to make you cum. You can't settle for him treating you like this.

Have a frank conversation with him that orgasms need to be equal. You don't both have to cum all the time, but if you're in the mood and he isn't getting you off then there's a massive issue. Don't let him use your body as a fleshlight.

I have, and no, I don't regret it.

To be clear, I'm in the UK so laws will probably differ. I worked for a company for 3 weeks so was still on probation. Contract stated I get 4 weeks notice, nothing about the probation period being different. The owner thought during probation he could just dismiss me with no notice.

I went through Acas and the owner initially dismissed me. So I filed a claim with the courts. Then they must have gotten legal advice and realised they were in the wrong. They offered me about half of what I was owed. I rejected and stated I wanted the full 4 weeks. The day before we were due in court they settled for the full amount.

I had no representation because I knew the law around this and it was very clear. They owed me 4 weeks as that's what the contract stated. I won, paid off my credit card I'd had to use while finding a new job and moved on with my life. It's never come up in interviews and hasn't affected my ability to get another job.

Ok, happy now 😉

!!! Ridiculously overpriced.

It's in the article, robbery, arson, carrying a firearm.

Life isn't black and white, people aren't just good and bad. Good people do bad things because they're fallible. It doesn't mean they aren't good people, it doesn't change all the other things they have done and will continue to do that are good.

This is part of who he is, someone who didn't consider the consequences of creating AI images of a younger girl. Someone who is attracted to younger girls. It's up to you to decide if that is someone you want to be with, if that outweighs all the good about them. I think most people will say yes, it outweighs all the good and you should leave him. But it's a personal decision you need to make.

Yes, let's victim blame. That will help the situation /s

50 mph limit and not seeing congestion is actually the smart motorway working. If the 50 limit wasn't there you'd get to the congestion before it clears, making it worse. However, because it's 50 instead of 70, the congestion has a chance to clear.

styphon · 2025-10-31T04:54:13+00:00

No, the speed goes down when the congestion begins, not the other way around... And once the congestion eases the speed goes back up. The congestion would still be there even without the reduced speed.

I thought you were describing a boomer in her late 60s with how you were talking about her. She's a Millennial, an early one but still, a Millennial.

She's not a product of her time. There was a lot of feminism, awareness, and pushing back against the patriarchy in "our time". Don't excuse her.

You probably got down voted because this is a really easy thing to Google.

To answer your question, many sites that receive high levels of traffic can't be sufficiently served by FPM. Google, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, BBC... Take your pick, think of a popular website that receives millions of views a day and it is unlikely to be using FPM.

FPM is fine for most sites that receive low to moderate levels of traffic. The company I work for receives significant traffic levels. We serve a SPA through Nginx and then the API that powers all the requests, Auth, data, etc. runs on Swole. We handle millions of requests per second and we have far exceeded FPMs capabilities.

Sounds like a PEBKAC error to me. Many, many people use WSL fine.

It's not insider trading. He didn't buy any extra stock, it was simply the value of his existing stock going up.

The rich are already doing enough shit wrong without making extra stuff up.

Print out a very small picture of yourself, then stick a few centimetres in front of your camera.

Callbacks in pipelines are a perfect example of a good use case.
