I signed up a while back for online (i.e. email not snail mail) billing from a utility company (which shall remain nameless to protect the guilty). It's worth a small discount too.
So this morning I get the email titled "View your [redacted] bill here". The usual guff, way too much HTML, but account number, $ total and due date are findable. There is a button "View bill", so I check that out. Link to https://[them]/viewbill/download?id={100+ chars of what looks like base-64}. OK, click.
Browser opens on a page as follows:
[their logo]
To make sure your bill is secure, and only you can see it, we have secured it with a password.
Please enter your postcode to view your bill. and a textbox and a button "View bill".
Who the elephant do they think they are kidding?
Unbelievable.
Cheers,

Do they only service a few postal codes? There are utility companies in the US that service hundreds, possibly more, of postal codes so it would be somewhat secure.

If you have had beans, do not, I emphasize, do not ever use facilities at library or on your floor.

Pro Tip #2: Soak your beans first and that releases the chemical that causes gas.
Pro Tip #3: Always make your own food (and grow it if possible) so that you actually know what you are eating.

If you are a fan of [Heinz] Baked Beans then add extra water to the pan and cook them for an excessively long time until the sauce is back to the normal consistency. Same great taste and texture but no gas!

Signing up for course on Informatica I came across registration page that looks like this.
https://s9.postimg.org/bpl12xw2n/new_Input.png[^] Now that's a new way to ask for input. You have to click on that arrow icon which opens a popup to do select. https://s10.postimg.org/fabpk2gnd/make_Sure.png[^]
Next option is even scary as it lists 3500 plus informatica customers and you have to select your company from that list.

A while back I complained about VS not persisting tab settings in the editor. Every time I started VS I would have to change the tab settings to my preferred settings.
Well, kudos, seems to be fixed though not mentioned in the release notes for update 3 (or 2).

Don't worry, they'll fix that and put back to the way it was in the next update. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.
