Have they fixed the ability to easily transfer your existing Android data to the new Android phone? I find that every time I upgrade, despite choosing the options to transfer apps/settings, that 90% of the apps I open just greet me with the login screen and I have to set everything up completely from scratch. I remember maybe a handful of apps, I think one was Uber, that were able to transfer everything including the login session. That was truly magic. That's how it should be for all apps. I understand banks might have special security requirements and I already know for Google Wallet, your cards need to be reactivated even if they transfer over, but most apps are not banks.

I just stick CloudFront in front of those buckets. You don't need to expose the bucket at all then and can point it at a canonical hostname in your DNS.

For the sake of understanding, can you explain why putting CloudFront in front of the buckets helps?

When Google said GCP is "down", did it affect entire availability zones within a region? For people who designed redundant infrastructure, did your backup AZs/regions keep your systems online?

If the requirement is to check uniqueness, what assumptions could possibly cause a bug? In this case, why does it matter if the uniqueness is tested with a nested for loop or with a map? There are many identical ways to check uniqueness, some being faster than others.

phpMyAdmin was (is?) such a great tool and really got me into SQL/MySQL over a decade ago. Not to mention the whole PHP stack was so fun to use and let you iterate quickly and just build stuff with an immediate feedback loop - just reload the page and your updated server-side code is executed.

So people could just use a non-US VPN and a non-US Apple account to download the apps?

People can always "just."

Does this also remove the app from devices?

If you read the article, no.

Obviously there are no details yet, but I suspect it's as simple as:

- Polymarket is still very illegal in the US

- Lol. We all know it's easy to get around that

- If the CEO knew or was complicit in US citizens breaking laws, he could be in trouble. And if there was evidence he was encouraging it, he could be in big trouble

Can someone explain to me how this is? It's a company HQ'd in New York, but it's not allowed to do business in the very country it's HQ'd in? What am I missing?
