> Robocalls I assume are profitable to someone. Therefore they will always find a way around blockage.
False. Robocalls can be made unprofitable. Take a deposit from the sender before calling you, and if at your discretion you determined the call was spam, don't refund the deposit.
Robocalls aren't solved because phone software didn't add this feature.
If these companies set the wrong metric of success (in other words, if there can be better incentives) and these companies don't follow the better incentives, then better companies will arise.
Could comments be assigned some big weight that has the effect of the comment staying around high enough to clear the misconception?
Could each thread be allowed only a finite number of comments or words, to not disperse attention, with lower quality comments forced to disappear?
Could there be a fool-proof mechanism to force comments you know are wrong to disappear?
If a new site like HN or Reddit showed up, how would would like it work? I ask because I'm toying with the idea of one. Thoughtful beta users get in touch.
We recommend employers to ask 3 basic questions:
1. Tell us about your (professional) experience
2. Tell us about your education
3. Why do you think you'd be a good fit with our company
Candidates usually have about a minute to answer each question, each one is answered in a different video. Everything is customizable by the employer.
I'm trying to keep this brutally simple, but you can already:
- run it without internet connection (FF, Safari, Chrome)
- use it as a desktop Chrome app
I'm also thinking about creating a (paid) mobile app (probably SwiftUI for mobile and desktop). This way I could enable a privacy friendly autosave (iCloud).
I might add a product page for this, giving the whole thing more context.
If you have any feedback or opinions about these comments--shout!
Pay to post is harsh on the consumer. Pay to prove you're not a spammer is better, because you get your money back.
I'm experimenting with a fix for this at repowcha. There's probably a cost threshold past which it becomes unprofitable to post bad comments with an agenda.
Because if your labor is being measured in windows of time, you are either putting yourself out of work or admitting that they don't need you for 40 hours.
You need to shift the conversation away from hours worked to value of your work.
If you are an hourly employee, you are being paid to be a cog, not to be a brain.
I want to know more about the book than what the page shows. It might help if the page shows in larger fonts what "We will look at", and maybe a teaser example as code.
$ ssh -R 2000:localhost:8080 localhost.run
The authenticity of host 'localhost.run (35.171.254.69)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is SHA256:FV8IMJ4IYjYUTnd6on7PqbRjaZf4c1EhhEBgeUdE94I.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])?
Make it so it prints the url without more input, so it can be called from scripts easily. Like this
Port 2000 is not allowed. Only port 80 and 443 are allowed.
I didn't see easily that it's the 8080 I should change.
3. Can you make it so someone can control my xterm? This could be a useful (and dangerous, but also useful) feature. Check out https://github.com/paradoxxxzero/butterfly
Thanks for trying it and for such a detailed response!
That host check prompt is a SSH security feature, it will only ask you the first time to accept the key and after that it will only check that the key hasn't changed, to verify no one is impersonating my ssh server, and allow you in without a prompt if it is ok. It's kind of like how your browser expects a valid certificate signed by a certificate authority when visiting https sites, but without the certificate authority.
In most cases accepting the first time means you will never be asked again. Certainly the check can be skipped as you described tho if preferred tho.
for port 2000 try this:
ssh -R 80:localhost:2000 localhost.run
The first port number needs to either be 80 or 443, and for most people 80 is the port they will use. the second port number is the port your local app runs on. https://localhost.run/docs/http-tunnels explains what 80 does and https://localhost.run/docs/tls-passthru-tunnels 443, but 443 is for very specific use cases.
Butterfly looks awesome! If i'm understanding what you're after you want to be able to run butterfly locally and give someone else an internet URL to connect to your butterfly server, right? I'm not clear on how authentication in butterfly works, I'd need to read more, but certainly you could do client x509 authentication with a TLS passthru tunnel (that's the 443 advanced use case I mentioned), altho I'm not sure if someone like letsencrypt does client certs, so you might need to live with a certificate warning in your browser unless you can get a CA signed client/server cert. Maybe butterfly allows other authn/authz methods tho, like username/password over http, in which case you could use a normal http tunnel and connect it to the internet. If I get a chance to try it I'll reply back, and you get it working before me pls let me know!
Now I want something more. I want to be able to run localhost.run locally and give someone else an internet URL to connect to my local xterm, or to my local X display (vnc?). I want them to see my text editor and type stuff in it.
