They're already selling a 13" MBP with this chip and a fan to reduce throttling

Does this mean they don't get paid out for the remainder of their contract? These streamers took a massive brand hit by leaving twitch for so long...

If they didn't have to retake the test they would have 0 stress because they'd be done, so you can't really claim there's less stress. Also many students likely already crammed enough knowledge into their heads for when they took the original test, and are now forced to retain all of this for multiple weeks, i.e they have to put in a lot more effort studying for little to no improvement in score (yes students cram for tests and don't retain information, that's just how testing works)

Often the reason is as simple as "This file I'm adding to is in coffeescript and I don't want to convert it right now"

A Certificate Authority is an entity that verifies the identity of websites for your browser. There are only a few CA's in the world and their integrity is crucial because of how your browser trusts them. By making users install a government-issued CA, and also controlling their internet provider, the Kazakh government can pretend to be any website and therefore see all HTTPS traffic from the affected users.

Yes because the government would want Facebook to store user passwords. But only some of them, specifically facebook lite users, you know, the users that can't even afford a modern phone and reasonable internet. And they would want to use the passwords directly, instead of having some other backdoor for getting data from these accounts, so that way the users they spy on can see that they're being spied on because of the suspicious logins using their password. You've cracked the case =)

The article doesn't claim that passwords from 2012 are viewable today, just that they have been storing them in plaintext since 2012.

How is making negative generalizations about people from a specific country not racist?

I think triplebyte's commission is 25% of first year salary, but that doesn't mean the people behind triplebyte are solely motivated by larger commissions.

That's an interesting idea, but might break whatever hashing method is used?

It's probably infeasible to run that type of filter in-path during uploads without adding too much latency to posting, wheras the hashing approach is much less expensive. AI filters likely take down images after they've already been posted
