CSDb == gambling!!

Trying to waste some time at work, I noticed that suddenly I couldnt load up the CSDb webpage anymore.. It's blocked by the company's Netgear firewall and is placed in the 'gambling' category :)

Ofcourse I couldnt disagree with them more, but alas..

It's not blocked because of ads, it's the whole url that Netgear has identified as a gambling website..

I said it before and i'll say it again:

== is not a statement, nor an assertion.

X == Y does not mean X = Y. It may or may not return true.

If you really want to show your nerdiness, say

assert(X == Y).

Excuse me for my nitpicking. Thank you.

Not everyone posting here seem to be coders. That is a problem indeed.

- Use csdb.dk instead of the noname url.
- Buy a Raspberry Pi for a few quid, connect it to the internet at home, set up a tunnel and proxy traffic from your browser at work through that tunnel.

Problem solved.
