    I'm no fan of ads either but one undeniable benefit is equality; if Google cost money to use then those in poverty would simply be unable to use it. The service is paid for by the …

    I have a .to domain and the country code registrar (tonic) says they will not implement DNSSEC. Is this a big problem? Can I get protection from dns attacks in some other way? My w…

    I built an Alexa skill and put a lot of work to take it from hackathon project to polished product but even now it only gets 6-10 unique users a day. I keep chipping away on it but…
