I reverse engineered mcdonald's internal api and I'm currently placing an order worth $18,752 every minute at every mcdonald's in the US to figure out which locations have a broken ice cream machine

to clarify how this works: mcdonald's keeps track which locations have a broken machine, I'm merely querying for those - no order gets executed, no ice cream is actually wasted 🍦

A few days ago the wall street journal published an article about how tiktok "bypassed restrictions on Android" to obtain a unique identifier, so I decided to reverse engineer the app and find out what exactly they did.
Here’s my findings.

I don't want to trivialise what they did here but the picture that is being painted here is that tiktok is doing something that nobody else is, which is false.

is everyone who works at lambda school contractually obligated to be like... this
In 2007, VCs said green tech would be bigger than the Internet.
They invested billions in renewable energy, biofuels, electric cars.
The funds got killed.
In 2020, there is renewed VC interest in climate change.
The big question: can climate change deliver financial returns?
