Hi HN, I built Enclave, self-serve confidential compute on GPUs. Technical documentation is on the site, but I'd rather show than tell. Here are a couple apps hosted live on the pl…

How is this easier or better than using Lets Encrypt?

I see no reason to ever run vim as sudo. The best option in my opinion is to save files using ":w ! sudo tee %" This way you are not opening your system up to potential exploits wi…

No, it's not dead. It's relatively easy to build from source. I've been maintaining a large project myself and I'll tell you one of the most time consuming aspects is keeping up to…

I can't agree 100% with everything in the article but the part about GLSL is spot on.

Some of you might find this algorithm I created a few years ago interesting: http://ovgl.org/view_topic.php?topic=91JL96IHFS

So how do we know that this is not the FBI waiting for people to place orders/post listings so they can arrest them?

Can we get some brackets and other symbols? Just typing words is not really helpful to us coders.

I don't control it. I pay to use it.

So I thought I had a pretty secure setup by using DNSCrypt and a VPN server. My thought was that the VPN server would mostly see encrypted ssl data since I use HTTPS Everywhere and…

Going out on a limb here but are both your parents high-achievers? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2064478/Autism-lin...

I think they are doing a pretty good job of that currently and not only that but they offer a huge amount financial incentives through grants and scholarships for women. Anything r…

Honestly, society's gender roles are a result of our biology and not just dogmatic stereotyping. The truth is that women are biologically more interested in social occupations. It …
