Demystifying CORS 8 years ago
Right - it is a good safety feature. Also worth noting that responding with a wildcard will not allow you to set cookies in the browser when using `withCredentials` in the client and `access-control-allow-credentials` on the server. You've got to return a specific origin (one that is a match in your whitelist)

CORS allows you to whitelist what domains you accept certain requests from. This is a good thing.
One thing I never understood really is why a webpage is able to load scripts from a different domain. That will I suppose remain a mystery to me forever. Imagine how many fewer ads and junk we might see.

If you can't use the basic tools, there are not going to BE any results.
The metaphor is ridiculous.
What are you skeptical about? That this person's friend is actually injured? That it happened because of tesla? People get injured at work. Maybe not where YOU work, but it absolutely happens.
Also, the subtext of your comment - that this person OF COURSE would have contacted a news organization if their claim was legitimate is frankly very weird.
That is absolutely baseless.

Equifax under pressure after data breach update 8 years ago
They should be shut down permanently. Full stop.
Furthermore, the very existence of these credit agencies should be sincerely alarming to most normal people, and probably already is. These databases should not exist.
How a Medical Catastrophe Can Bankrupt a Life 8 years ago
you shouldn't have to shop around for medical care
70% of americans live paycheck to paycheck. There is no money to put into an HSA - let alone to put into a savings account.
Medicare for all is the only sense making option, truly. Insurance doesn't make sense in the context of healthcare.
Everything else is just a half measure. Healthcare makes zero sense as a market; it is completely busted.
