Sure, SMS-based 2FA is not nearly as secure as other forms of 2FA. But unless you're targeted, SMS-based 2FA still helps add a layer of security against other issues like password re-use. Of course none of us do that either, but for the general public, I'd rather support SMS-based 2FA across the board than nothing at all.

You can do the same trick that used to work with Google, but with Facebook instead. Search the text of the title in Facebook and follow the link through.

Could also probably modify some header or something to achieve the same thing.

I think that's completely the right idea, but I don't think the difficulty in "self-driving" is the carless-ness of those highway roads. Highway roads tend to be easy because you don't have a lot of edge cases. Cars are always driving at roughy the same speed, and there aren't very many lights or intersections or bicyclists or pedestrians, etc.

I can never remember the Latin, but in my mind, I usually substitute i.e. to mean "in essence" and e.g. as "e.g.xample" to remember which means which.

The scariest part is that you knew that there was something suspicious and still [almost] got phished. There's no reason to believe anyone (technical or not) that wasn't looking out for something suspicious would have possibly avoided the attack.

Pretty nasty phishing attempt, way more subtle than past attacks.

Seems like Taskrabbit sort of fills this space at the moment, unaware of other startups in the space though

Troll. You clearly know what is meant in this context. Asians are indeed minorities in the context of the United States, just as Caucasians are minorities in Asia. It is pointless to say that Asians are the world's leading majority, when in an individual context such as this one, they are not.

Why is everyone taking this commercial the wrong way? "dumb idea", "take two bottles", etc. Doubt this is meant to be an actual product to sell. In case you haven't been seen any Coca Cola commercials for the past years, they've always been focused around psychologically attaching Coca Cola and happiness/success/"good times" together.

  Why sponsor sports so much? 
  When your home team won, you had a Coke in your hand.

  Why so much Coca Cola marketing around Christmas? 
  Happy holidays, have a gift from a Coke-loving Santa.

  Why make this bottle? 
  You met your best friend because you guys me through opening a bottle together.

Coca Cola commercials are cute and are designed to play on human emotion. Vending machines that need a hug before spitting out a free drink. Another vending machine on Valentine's Day that only give out drinks to couples that can prove they're a couple.

Not quite sure I agree with that. I think the argument is that Facebook has pictures of me as long as any one of my friends has a picture of me, and has posted it on their own Facebook.

Similar to the problem with Google having access to a large percentage of emails, Facebook will have pictures of me regardless of whether I choose to personally have a Facebook account or not. Assuming that I do have a Facebook, with a network of friends, they can also tag me in their pictures (and therefore available to Facebook) even if my own privacy settings are turned all the way up.

Playing the game, it seems like Team Github doesn't actually know the rules of the game, and are just playing optimally as if for normal tic-tac-toe. They continually force Team Twitter into the middle area (by continually playing in the middle square of each area), allowing the most dominant meta area to be given up. Looking at the numbers of people that are choosing each square, it doesn't seem like it has anything to do with the number of people on each team. Literally every single person on Team Github chose the same squares in the most crucial mistakes.

That, along with the misspelling of height (spelled hight) in the document, makes me believe that this is not a valid document.
