It’s something that literally every dev has done at some point before they knew better.
If you're working for a multinational tech company handling sensitive user data and still make this mistake, then you are being malicious in your incompetence. This is something that would cause you to lose a significant amount of marks on a first year college programming project, let alone a production system used by literally billions of people.
that logged unencrypted password data
Why the fuck would you need to log a password ever? This is absolutely malice and not incompetence.
Hanlon's Razor revised: Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to incompetence, except where there is an established pattern of malice.
Mostly cerebal spinal fluid.
USA prisoner.
Literally:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Gives some context to why US judges give people of colour disproportionately long sentences for a given crime.
If I were Jewish, I'd be livid that Israel is reinforcing all the worst stereotypes that antisemites have about Jews.
The kid who jury rigged their gameboy to a power adapter is probably an electrical engineer by now.
Black coffee. Works just as well for a quarter of the price without fucking your kidneys up or giving you diabetes.
Easy solution: Switch to table UUIDs.
No, because humans are hardwired to be diurnal and there is very little we can do to change that. We have a prominant window of circadian low, and it's one of the biggest threats to pilots that fly at night (among other safety critical jobs) even if they have slept for 8+ hours right before their shift.
You might think you can function just fine at night, you might even think you function better at night, but science says otherwise.
Additional reminder that Google not only records your location minute by minute, they also record your motion activity through your phone's gyroscope and know exactly what you're doing (walking, running, biking, driving, playing sports, etc). You can view all of this in your history. It's genuinely infuriating that they can get away with this.
You can turn it off in your settings, but as with any proprietary software you can never be sure that they're not still doing it (why wouldn't they? that's just leaving profit on the table)
I'd argue that the internet has made this problem worse, not better.
In fact, I'd argue that the internet has taken away tons of people's ability to admit they're wrong because there's always an echo chamber that will support you on even the dumbest of beliefs and anyone fact checking anyone is seen as the enemy. You see this on places like Facebook and YouTube comments where someone will make a claim, other people will think it makes sense on a cursory glance and express their agreement, then someone who actually knows what they're talking about will politely correct them and everyone will gang up on them because they've disrupted the vibe, and simply because of that the unanimous decision is made that the correct answer is in fact wrong and is a government conspiracy.
