Maybe technically impressive but please don't use this on your websites, it looks like shit (the effect in general, not this specific implementation)


It looks really good on iOS. I've been running the beta for a while and the execution is great.


Obvious to anyone using the site or aware of is ratings, including the author, but it is good to see some analysis as evidence.


Please don't do this, you aren't adding anything to the conversation


Our greatest ally.


I am banned from all Amazon sites and services for turning on 2FA.

I was getting constant fake SMS messages about a failed login attempt, turned on 2FA thinking it was a good idea, 2 minutes later banned completely for 'abuse'. My case will not be heard or reviewed.

Yeah, a communist State would never


The longer compilation videos are because of sleeping viewers. You can cram them with as many ads as you like.


At the end of the day though, the most money is made by getting people to actually pay attention to the ads. Shorter videos might really accomplish that best. I imagine YouTube is aware of sleeping users, and if advertisers aren't realizing the engagement they expect for what they pay, they'll go elsewhere.



If the problem is in the installer then this can't be 'fixed', affected installers should be fingerprinted as malware.


I had that thought of "existing installers are sus..." but didn't connect to "fingerprinting it as malware". Makes sense.

Couple questions as savvy tech person but not working day-to-day in security/IT:

Would a regular home user with an old installer in their Downloads folder need to worry? (is a bad download file going to target looking for these old installers, then moving files around, etc?)

On the other hand, I could see corporate IT having the stronger case of proactively wanting to flag this installer if present on their systems.
