  • Perhaps it’s something that I’m missing. What do you mean when you say their email is confirmed?

    Usually when this happens, it’s a result of someone taking advantage of an application vulnerability, e.g. sql injection. Sometimes it’s more serious, like a script uploaded and a privilege escalation to execute it. The email value written to your database could be anything.

    Not to condescend, but this is a good learning experience. If they were able to write to your db, they could likely also read from it, dump the whole thing and harvest the data.






  • 48g of carbs per 100g is not low carb. It’s about the same as any other cake.

    Also, whatever they’re considering a ‘portion’ is not what people eat. It works out to about an ounce.

    FWIW I’d need 5-10u of insulin to cover a normal size portion. There’s probably enough fat in it to trick a glucose meter at the two hour mark, which is really faulty data for a type 2.

    Edit- strike that last part, probably not enough fat or fiber to trick a meter.

    I feel like the Adobe marketing is somewhat pointless. Anyone that has been in the target industries for any amount of time already know the deal.

    GIMP is not Photoshop. They are not competitors. It’s a difficult transition. I’m not sure we should even bother drawing a comparison.

    I’ve used Photoshop since 1992. I know, I’m old. I started using GIMP about four years ago. I recently got to the point where I can function.

    Money and momentum is a motherfucker. Adobe has fuck you money. GIMP has volunteers. Those that don’t like their site should volunteer time or money.

    Edit: fwiw I like the GIMP site better too.



  • Absolutely, and thanks for asking. Also, congrats! I’d recommend looking at credit unions (US/Canada) and higher ed. Both are non-profits and good stepping stones. Either can be a career if you don’t want a ‘stepping stone.’ Depending on how altruistic you want to be, you can find either that serve underserved communities. CUs pay better, but are more corporate and demanding. Higher ed doesn’t pay as well, but is more laid back if you can ignore politics, which there is a ridiculous amount of. I worked at a HBCU (US) for a long time, and it was pretty great. Depending on where you are, it’s usually pretty easy to find an open spot at either.
