  1. Re:exhibit A: OK Cupid's famous essay on Ashley Madison Source Code Shows Evidence They Created Bots To Message Men · · Score: 1

    Plus there are also a great deal of fake accounts created by people in other countries posing as though they are near you. These accounts are created to take that sexual desperation and turn it into fleecing the desperate. I have a good friend who very nearly sent one woman $2000 because she allegedly made a mistake with her credit card and was stuck in another town and couldn't get back for their date. She'd have the money for him as soon as they met. Fortunately a little voice in his head told him to call me just before he did it. Poor guy. He was so embarrassed he'd fallen for it.

  2. codeskulptor.org (online Python environment) on RTFM? How To Write a Manual Worth Reading · · Score: 1

    As I was learning to program in python I used codeskulptor during a course I was doing. The docs supplied for python and a few of their own packages were a god send after wrangling with pythong docs. What I like about it is the clear example code provided. It's not long winded. It's straight to the point. Very clear concise. But there's little room for wondering from the example code they provide. I'm better with Python official docs now, but when I was starting it was so damn hard.
