Actually not quite. The rules have tightened up significantly on powerbanks.[1]

First the same size rules apply as always, i.e. 100Wh, 100–160Wh with personal individual passenger permission and never above 160Wh.

Second, max two per passenger.

Third, you are prohibited from:

     - using them to charge devices on-board
     - recharging the power bank itself on-board.

If it's sophisticatedly rewritten then it's no longer AI generated


That is not a reliable indicator even today. GPT-4 (not the ChatGPT RLHF one) is not distinguishable from human writing. You could ask it about modern events, but that's not a long term plan, and it could just make the excuse they don't follow the news.


It does. Cmd-Shift-/ and start typing


http://www.indeed.co.uk has a very clean craigslist-like style which I find a joy to use when recruiting.


Indeed is my go-to job site. I found jobs both in Canada and France using it.


Changing your password is the fastest way to ensure all authed sessions on any device is logged out. Google offers a "log out of any sessions" button somewhere in account settings, but most other services don't.

If your email account is compromised, any service that do password resets via email confirmation, are potentially compromised by whoever has access to your email via OAuth.


I'm pretty sure that changing your password does NOT revoke your oauth scopes, which was the attack vector here.


We at CopyCopy (a cross-platform cloud clipboard) solve this problem by only universally copying stuff that you copy twice.

So:

copy once -> not sent to cloud/devices

copy twice (or click floating button) -> sent to all your devices and cloud account


Indeed, WHATWG is currently considering [1] a related scenario where rogue websites with access to the clipboard will inject formats with dodgy payload to exploit flaws in some app if the user pastes.

Windows itself leaves the c:\users\<username> path as it was first set, even if you rename the username.


I can confirm this. Recently renamed a user as I handed off an old PC to my wife. The old directory is still there but now all the files within it are inaccessible. Caused a lot of issues!


This shouldn't happen. The directory is still there, but it also should still be your profile directory. Changing a user name shouldn't change the SID and make your files inaccessible.


Lots of things with Windows should not happen, but they do. It shouldn't forget that I have bluetooth hardware installed, but it does. Windows just (in)conveniently forgets things. Or, conversely, remembers things that should be forgotten.


A lot of weird things happen when you violate Windows' core assumptions about the file system.


Not really. Renaming the username-part of the user's home folder has all kinds of data loss potential (apps not being able to find documents, documents linked to each other etc.). Therefore Windows takes the perfectly appropriate approach of leaving the user's files named as they were. Permissions etc. all remain unchanged and allow the same renamed user access. Just the folder on disk shows the old name.


I just renamed my user, too, but I kept the same directory. No issues for the past month or so.


We (copycopy.com), do.

Atm we use a mix of QtQuick/QML and some widget code mainly when wrapping QtWebKit it for some parts of the app furniture that need it.

Although the guts of our app requires native code (for clipboard monitoring and websocket message receiving), were considering ditching much of the UI in favour of a webapp.


With Marshmallow, you can just turn off or deny certain permissions. So for most people who really want to run the Uber app, the question is really whether it runs OK without all these permissions.


Uber did this knowing very well that most people don't have Marshmallow on their smartphone.


Most people don't read the needed permission, even fewer knows about those settings.


How many end-users understand permissions and are able to manage them?
