Oh true, I didn't consider that. I guess parents have no agency over their children.

Who manages the exposure to the devices a children has? Where did they get these devices from in the first place?

Where are all these poisoned children getting the cash to buy these things?

If you read the third sentence of the PR, it says:

> During the transpilation process, no type checking is performed, and types are discarded

This example makes no sense to me. An attacker is potentially logging on to the computer and submitting empty passwords to get in. And this is what we're trying to prevent at the expense of having an unclear UX?

What kind of side channel exists if the behavior is: if password is required, zero length input is always invalid. This seems kind of like basic UX. I mean I wouldn't expect the password field to validate against the password complexity requirements exactly, just that zero length input is probably a mistake.

Is this what passes for discussion on HackerNews these days?

Can you name a single accessibility feature where this has happened ever? Kinda seems like you just made up some fake reality.

It's not an absolute statement, you'd have to have a childish interpretation of the article to have that takeaway. Not every generalization needs a "well actually".

Sure, numbers don't matter. Just 40M homeless, give or take 39.4M.

I just find it funny when engineers trivialize solutions that they themselves wouldn't employ. Like yeah, I'm sure your phpbb solution was a proper vulnerability reporting and triaging system.

Ah yes the typical engineer response of "just <insert system>".

Do you think Ubiquiti has hundreds of people on staff to watch their forums to triage every issue within seconds of it being posted? I'm curious what level of support would be satisfactory to you, in this instance.

That's not the argument being made. Nobody said that.

These people say they don't want all this power centralized to certain individuals, will in the next breath claim that government should seize assets after a certain amount. They want centralized control, they just want their preferred political party to be the ones with it.
