The trick to this is probably living in a very low cost-of-living country whilst part time remote working for a company in a high CoL country. Get the timezones right and you can wake up late enough that you don't need an alarm, and you can have the lifestyle for the coat of a few days a week in front of the computer.
Now to find that dream job and the right place to live. Shouldn't be hard... Right?
You might want to try something like Anubis on both the signup and order pages. Real users will either not be stopped, or will only hit it once, and no user interaction is required to continue, but bot users will be slowed down enough to, hopefully, disuade them from returning.
You don't need to stop them, you just need to make the effort not be worth it compared to using a different site. Things like making sure they have a valid session cookie before they hit the payment flow, and, ideally, require them to be logged in too. That way you can block attacking accounts, and they have to go through the effort of registering a new one, which is, hopefully, well gated against automated attacks.
Alternatively, they could have sent the security team an email with the 'carrot' and saying "There seems to be fundamental, systemic, security issues in Forgejo; here's some proof. There's too much for me to raise individual reports, what are we going to do about it?"
There's a big difference between double checking things occasionally, and needing to look up fundamental things. I've been a sysadmin for, well, a long time, and there have been many occasions where I've been pulled in to rescue a situation and had to rely on what I knew, without being able to refer to other material, either due to intense time pressure, or enough being down that there isn't anything to reference.
Besides, exams should be testing your core understanding of the subject, the sort of knowledge everything else is built on, and your ability to apply that knowledge in different scenarios. Practical tests, are better suited to assessing how you use novel information, do more advanced things, and handle reference material. Maybe we're talking about the same sort of thing in different ways?
I think both closed book exams, and practical tests/discussions and the like have an important role to play in assessing your performance, whether a teacher sets them or you challenge yourself.
How many times in your job have you ever not been allowed to look something up?
It's rare, but not unheard of, that I can't look things up, but the point of closed book exams is is to demonstrate that you know the subject well enough that you don't need to look things up. Obviously, exactly what this entails is going to vary depending on the level if the exam. If it's testing foundational knowledge, then it should all be in your head, if it's more advanced, a crib sheet with key facts (say certain more complex, but necessary, equations for a non maths subject, or similar support prompts).
If you're working, you can't be stopping every few minutes to look up basic information. A computer programmer who has to keep looking up the syntax of their language, or basic algorithms, for example, won't get very far.
The thing that this person seems to have either forgotten, or not understood in the first place, is that homework, and your education in general, is not for the teacher, it's for you. If you choose to cheat your way through you will gain less than if you actually put the work in yourself. This gets more important the further through education you go.
Probably the best outcome for an essay question is if you discuss it with your friends, all share your understanding of the subject, then write it up individually, incorporating anything new you learned from your discussions.
This does come with the issue that those who cheat could end up getting good grades if there is no 'live' check of their understanding, either through closed book exams, class tests, group discussions, or similar.
Wait, wait... I thought the sun was just a hole in the dome of the heavens, letting in the light of the ineffable, or something? Like, the dome turns, and that makes the sun move? Now you're telling me it's a floating disk? That's just crazy talk!
If you assume that non-conservatives are largely trying to push society to be better (and I admit that "if" is doing a lot of work), then conservatives, pretty much by definition, are going to usually be on the wrong side of history by trying to hold back change.
Conservatism really only works when it acts as a steadying force against over-rapid change, rather than cover for a right wing agenda, and, unfortunately, it always seems to get corrupted like that.
I'm going to guess that the entire setup was probably vibe-coded if they're making such basic errors at the system architecture level. It would be nice to think that the people doing this sort of thing would take this as a salutary lesson, but they wont.
Do you register your storm shelter with the rescue services ahead of time? It sound like, if a house falls on it, you could be stuck in there without external assistance.
Because I am literally replying to someone who is showing strong hints of supporting the Jeffrey Epstein class
I've re-read their post, and I don't see any attempt to support anything, so much as calmly pointing out that burning down warehouses isn't going to have much effect, as the cost will just be passed down the chain, ultimately to the consumers. You can be certain that, should that happen, there would be enough of a media deluge telling people that rising prices are the fault of "domestic terrorists", or similar, that the population as a whole would tend to turn again the agitators, rather than against the warehouse companies (who they're never really heard of), or the retailers (who just say "sorry, nothing we can do, our costs went up"). It's a sad state of affairs, but people will more readily blame the active participant in this sort of thing.
I refer to the rest of your first post as "arrant nonsense" because it is basically just a violent fantasy wrapped up in ranting and profanity. As I said, that obscures any point you were trying to make.
Dude. Are you American?
No. I'm not going to say my taxes haven't funded unjust wars and violence, but over time I've done what I can to ensure my voice is heard in opposition to that.
Ever since the “grab them by the pussy” scandal I developed a very strong loss of faith over the American population and also the entire world.
Let's say I've been cynical about them for a lot longer than that, but, yes, that was so breathtakingly brazen, and has so little effect, it would be hard not to be shaken.
I was a teenager who has seen people becoming worse, more racist, more disgustingly evil, especially recently with Gaza, Israel, the way Zionists, Netanyahu supporters talk and express themselves…
I'm sorry you have to live through this. Evil seems particularly emboldened right now, and it should disgust any reasonable person. Honestly though, the evil has always been there, it was just more subtle. When I was that age, we lived under the threat of nuclear annihilation, and somehow that feels less evil.
How exactly do you plan to communicate with all those angry people whose families you killed and then you justified it, laughed about it, celebrated it, taunted us and called us terrorists even when we spoke about it nicely?
Fortunately there are none of those, as I haven't done that. However, I would suggest that, calmly, ackowledging their anger is justified, and ignoring their insults, might be a good start.
You blaming them, and saying that being angry “obscurs” their “arrant nonsense” argument
I'm not blaming you, but I am saying that you're not communicating effectively. The points, as far as I can tell, in your comnent, basically amounted to "more violence, the people will rise up", which is a fantasy, rather than a plan.
The only thing you did was show people that you seem to support the Jeffrey Epstein class,
This seems to be your go-to insult, and, I'm going to be honest, it's not very effective, especially when it's doesn't really relate to what the person said.
otherwise, why would you attack me? For the misuse of a word, really? Just that?
I haven't attacked you, I pointed out that the word you used did not mean what you intended, and, in the context of your argument, that was quite important, then that the rest of your comment seemed like little more than violent fantasy, although I'm now wondering if this is more of a language and cultural misunderstanding. You, on the other hand, have been slinging insults at people quite freely though, and, again, that doesn't really help you get your point across.
