First of all, I said privacy , not security. Huge difference. That aside, I am not advocating for less choice, merely observing that in many cases users willingly give up their pri…

Convenience is often the biggest enemy of privacy.

IIUC, you live sw development but you took the job you hate just because it is at FAANG? If I may ask, why would you want to be there and nowhere else? Asking because there are qui…

That's a nice idea, thank you! No more worrying about node versions either.

It is also awesome, easy to use and very convenient. If you are configuring anything through AWS web GUI, you should give Terraform a go, you won't regret it. (not affiliated in an…

What did they change the license to? If you have some examples, I would be curious to see how they handled that. I was under the impression that it was Commons Clause that people s…

That wouldn't help much - there would still be neighbors bordering your (now bigger) property, just further away. You need to buy an island instead.

I try to make clean commits that do one thing only. If I have trouble writing a meaningful commit message, it means I have failed and should do a better job next time. That said, I…

So, 4 years later, and SNMP is still alive and well. It has (a lot of) rough edges, but it works, is ubiquitous and all sysadmins know how to work with it. Not even such a bad stan…

So, like... SNMP Traps? :-)

If using netsnmp, it will work without problems, always (in my experience). Anything that doesn't work exactly the same (bugs and all) - good luck. The reason is that everyone seem…

Thank you for providing such a great service! Especially love the fact that exporting to PNG allows embedding the diagram data into the image, so it can be still edited later. Geni…

Thank you for the link to your repo, this it the first time I heard about length extension atracks. TIL, appreciate it! This SO answer explains them nicely, if anyone is curious: h…

For the uninitiated, what happens in this scenario? Does the deal fall through, do the other investors need to cover for the missing party,...?

Sounds like a great idea to create a UI/UX fork of Gimp, I would love to use it or even contribute. Not sure if you can build a community around it, but if you succeed, either your…

New contributors are actually in a much better position to judge UI/UX because they are not used to all the idiosyncrasies of the software yet. I have used Gimp regularly and still…

> The US government will never let its housing market fail,... Maybe I'm totally missing your point, but didn't exactly this happen in 2008?

Really? For me it was the perfect way to stop asking this person for advice.

+1 on health, but especially fitness. There is no health without it. In last few years it was all too easy to stop doing sports, but there should be less excuse now. If you are afr…

My not-yet-completely-cynical take is that EU still puts people before corporations, so we still have a chance to win. Fingers crossed.

This is only true now, until such rides become the norm. Then the margins will shrink and companies will optimize every way they can.

> ...no weird routes to tack on extra fees. At first. They will optimize that later.

> TV: NEC P461 commercial display - I found the model number by climbing behind the arrivals/departures board at the airport. Huh. Trying to imagine someone doing that and not gett…

Thank you, makes sense!

> ...sort of like a morning after pill (but every day for a whole month). Does this mean that there is a cure, but it only works if taken shortly after exposure (and for a whole mo…
