14 of them. The first person to climb them all did so without supplemental oxygen. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinhold_Messner

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but high end skis make tradeoffs which are harmful to beginner or intermediate level skiers... also there's sorta no thing as "best ski". w…

If you've never had an opportunity to spend time in a datacenter as a software developer, that's unfortunate but also far too common. What things look like on the inside vary compa…

The methodology for validation seems a bit off, in my setup I return a local IP for all of the domains in that list and serve empty content for it. Thus it detects the ads getting …

This is the study which is behind the recent news articles on the AMOC collapse: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adx4298 Basically newer modeling has shown a stronger we…

I have to wonder at $760/forever if this feature even pays for itself. The pure dystopian version of this is that VW loses money on this directly (never mind lost sales) because th…

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

It feels really market by market. Where I live, the house I’ve been in is 50-75% mortgage cost vs rent on a comparable property. That mortgage is a bit over 10 years old, and has b…

Not much of an article. Do yourself a favor and read the LWN one: https://lwn.net/Articles/961978/ tl;dr: The Linux kernel team view all bugs as a possible security issue. The CVE …

Worth re-posting Theo's 2007 note about CPU security bugs again: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=118296441702631&w=2 My hunch is that as they suspected these types of issues is…

Sure, U-Haul. It's $19.95/day and $1.39/mile. Last time I rented one the automated "don't have to talk to anyone" app I couldn't figure out, but it took less than 120 seconds to na…
