Its seems insane to me that anyone would knowingly upload CP to a forensics site on purpose. Much less several times a day.
Perhaps even worse. They move on to some ML based detection that uploads suspected CP that is not in the database. Most people have no idea how bad a false accusation can destroy their lives. Even if you are 100% innocent there is already a formal government case against you. At the very least you will be compelled to hire a very expensive attorney to handle the matter for you. After all you cant risk a budget attorney with a huge caseload to handle this potential life sentence case. Not to mention that during this time you will possible be locked out of accounts,finances, put on leave from employment, banned from hiring, banned from assistance programs. Perhaps even posted in the media as a sex offender.
Unless every person on earth wants to become a PHD in CS this is a dead end. How do you fix this computer otherwise, hire someone? Yeah its called the market and it sells $150 replacement computers when yours dies. Exactly 1 person on earth would use this and its the author.
It always bothers me a bit when tech people get so wrapped up in a rabbit hole of a pointless obsession. His skills/time could be used much better elsewhere.
If you are the Director of AI/Machine learning (or CFO or whatever) at some company there are probably only you or you and one other person that ever had that job. By providing the salary you are outing yourself anyway and risking some sort of action against you. Anyone looking to move into these good jobs has no use for the site either.
This is the real problem glassdoor had/has and why it will eventually disappear or become nothing but ads or headhunter style site.
Go's Simplicity is its weakness for XXX thing.
I find these constant take one aspect of a language and paint the world with it to be unhelpful and distracting. However based on the comment section HN eats it up, no wonder people keep writing them. Its like Instagram for nerds I guess.
