I'll just caution that new things are often over-built to some degree. Then "engineering" is often how much margin they can squeeze-out while still hitting their warrantee targets.…

IMO the real "fun fact" is that supposed "IP monopolists" like Microsoft and Oracle's lawyers are apparently totally fine with this stuff. So obviously people are going to take the…

I'm listening to the Giants on the radio, and it looks like the data feed is about one pitch behind. (I suppose for gambling reason.) It would be neat if there was some way to sync…

Obviously way too easy to take over these 'orphaned' packages if it can be done in an automated manner. GitHub/NPM/etc doesn't have this issue, they need to stop equivicating. Soun…

If I understand, the malware is installed via npm from some subshell. But yeah I totally believe you have a detailed review of every package-lock.json and etc.

Oh you totally got me, tips fedora .

Why do you feel that most christian sects cannot decide they are heretics? We're not talking about some Lutheran Synod politics BS, they have this whole fantasy/scifi book and theo…

Nah, from a more intellectual protestant tradition -- they were not fighting doctrine and I remember at least a couple of those from Sunday sermons. None of that remotely resembles…

Well, the New Testament (what Christians care about) is entirely set in the historical first century Roman Empire [0], all places are accurate and known to exist. The Book of Mormo…

Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but there's no obvious switch to "just turn off all the legacy stuff, thnx". Also, there has been a huge amount of churn on the tooling side, and i…

Just to be pedantic, those characters are in 'ANSI'/CP1252 and would be fine in a varchar on many systems. Not that I disagree — Win32/C#/Java/etc have 16-bit characters, your…

And there are many tons more providers who will be happy to take your money while promising to spam google. TFA prob ain't exactly legit, eh?

That's because the article is slop.

His brother said he had a CPAP machine in his jail cell. (EFTA00113460)

Just pointing out - a lot of snowy areas are very aggressive about plowing (and salting). For most people this is probably like "don't drive tomorrow" and not some need for knobby …

Just to add, a lot of the midwestern USA is very swampy.

Yeah, from the pictures of the underside I saw, it looked like a very solidly-built car. (Makes me considered buying one after they the depreciation curve.) Still its a big $$$ seg…

Ford dropped sedans, they still have plenty of SUVs and other trucks you can buy.
