I was so excited when I found out about r/programmerhumor, but was quickly disappointed at the quality of the memes or a lack there of. I feel most of the post have nothing to do with programming and some that do are mostly 'java bad', 'js bad', 'exit vim', etc. It's like people who post there have no programming experience whatsoever.
I saw a youtube video once of someone trying to communicate with ransomware attackers and their support was better than even some legit companies. It was funny as hell how they were so 'professional' about it
But that doesn't mean you need to be able to implement them though. Shouldn't having a high level knowledge about these problem be enough if all you are doing is building apps.
Wow thank you so much for this, I have only read the first chapter of the second link and I see so many similarities to what I am going through or thinking.
Oh man I used to be a die hard fan of the author's 'turing complete fm[1]' podcast. It seems like he has stopped publishing new episodes, wonder what happened.
I follow him on Twitter and I haven't seen any 'official' info reading the podcast.
But Mr.Rui did confirm in this thread that he would be continuing the podcast so seems like it
will continue :)
Whats funny and ironic is that this actually makes finding pirated content much easier since only actual sites that contain pirated content are the ones that will be listed on DMCA complaint list
In recent years it is less easy, as content owners are now reporting huge batches of URLs in one complaint, so finding what you are looking for in this mass is much harder. They also often report fake downloads and scam websites in DCMA complaints.
The notices don't have to be disclosed to anyone but the alleged infringer. The URLs don't have to be hyperlinked either. This is one part of Google giving the trolls a middle finger.
Google should index them all on a separate page. For science of course.
More than once I've done a search for something pedestrian (no intent for piracy/etc) only to notice the "some results removed" link. Out of curiosity I've clicked it, just to see what crazy things have been removed, and been quite amused/interested in the results.
