Modern consumers almost never consider the origins of complex digital devices (or any other inventions for that matter), and our societies go as far as mocking the "nerds" than make such inventions happen. They don't realize that Apple didn't invent cellular technology because they simply don't give a shit. To the average consumer, a cell phone is only marginally different from a piece of fruit picked from a tree.

Hilarious this was modded down to troll. It's a legitimate request.

Unless it's a buffer over-read, in which case there might not be a 'BZZZZT!' You know, like Heartbleed.

Yes, but you see, Microsoft didn't statically link all the crypto stuff into a monolithic binary. Because, uh... I guess loading a bunch of unused stuff into memory is newsworthy.

Lots of gold in this thread, but this one should be a 5. The PHP API design decisions are the shittiest I've ever seen in my life.

Well, I think the people who can't control their sloppy eating sounds have the disorder.

If women and non-Asian minorities don't want to work in STEM, there is no problem to fix. And even if there is a problem, it's not mine to deal with.

Sorry, but I didn't dedicate my life to software engineering to allow myself to be exploited for somebody else's gain. And in case you're wondering, no, I do not have difficulty finding work at a wage I believe to be fair.

Unless there's a PoC that demonstrates remote code execution, this isn't really newsworthy.

What is it going to convince people to do?

Seems feasible, but how many people will go to such extents? This kind of business model works because enough people are too lazy to cancel, and instead opt to pay the bill.

This seems like a safe approach.

Probably, and that's why you should expect significant barriers during the cancellation process. It might not be impossible, but painful enough to keep enough people onboard.

This article made it seem as if they were infrequent enough to be newsworthy, so that's good to hear. Still, they're not as fast currency markets, and this approach is a great way to scalp nations if Apple chooses to do so. In my experience, most companies don't do this, even though their conversion rates tend to be less-than-stellar.

Regarding this:

A similar aesthetic could be achieved by showing the attractive USD price, and the converted price in a smaller font, or even on a different page/view/whatever (although that's kind of shitty). I've seen this approach in a few places.
