Full title was too long for post: Former Employee Of Technology Company Sentenced To Six Years In Prison For Stealing Confidential Data And Extorting Company For Ransom

The Verge reports that the employee worked for Ubiquiti. He was caught because his IP address was exposed "during an internet outage...[that] disrupted his VPN". I assume he had a software-based VPN/firewall that crashed while he was stealing data from Ubiquiti.

Boxed Market (fresh grocery delivery) has been suspended, but Boxed.com is still running.


Anonymous feedback doesn't really work. It's not hard to figure out who wrote the feedback if they write anything non-trivial.


Hmm are you saying that it's not too hard because the writing style in the feedback will give away the identity or anything else?


Say you're a manager who tends to be a little too "friendly" around women. There are two women in the company. It's easy to figure which one. Or things like the pantry is dirty and you're the one who's most vocal about it. Or you're sitting across from some guy who doesn't shower when he goes to work. Or maybe the back end engineers tend to screw up on a lot of little things, and you're one of the three people who deal with them. You could fingerprint someone with just a few of these.

The 6% fee needs to end! I'm a Co-founder of a new firm in NYC who rebates 50%+ of the buyer side commission back to the buyer.

The average buyer doesn't a ton of assistance and giving them 1.5% of the purchase price back at closing just makes sense.


Just curious - why use a percent fee rather than a flat fee?

192K in Robinhood 127k Equity in my apartment 65k 401k 82k IRA 10k Savings 3k Bonds Net worth: 479K


What does $192K in Robinhood mean, do you have it in stock/shares, or just sitting there? Why Robinhood? They are kind of a risk to put your money in, with that amount you can probably call up one of the larger companies and get X free trades, free level 2 and so on for moving your funds over, also better fills on your orders. Also, they have better customer service and they aren't just figuring out what they do. Lots of horror stories on Robinhood.


Google has an API for charts. [1] https://developers.google.com/chart/

I preferred their older image charts which are now deprecated. [2] https://developers.google.com/chart/image/?hl=en


Neat idea. I currently use the snooze feature in the Mailbox app for reminders, so I'm not sure when I would use this.
