Uber is worldwide - I’ve used it on 4 continents. I actually signed up for it when in South Africa. Considering they sold their business to Grab, I think you could safely say Uber+…

I've been thinking a lot about this one, and it gets a ton of help in the fact that Bill Hader is actually good at facial impressions, and that's what really sells it.

you can gradually type (probably don't use --strict in that case). It might not be a ton of benefit if you aren't actually writing new code though. There's a good document on this:…

okay, so use type annotations and mypy --strict

I can text without looking on iPhone 5/SE, but that went away with the 8

For my fiancée, she deleted her facebook a long time ago, and she never paid attention to the username. We just made a best attempt at guessing the “user name”

It’s always easier to just wireshark for an IP address that has access (in hotels too) and then clone the MAC adddress.

I'd like to see an MFA-version of Kerberos/kinit, and a PAM module that checks for ticket revocation on login. That's not so different from BeyondCorp and Uber's model. Alternative…

There's some caveats there. If you are just running a web app, then this is the correct answer. If your business is in your database, you employ data analysts and want to gleam som…

The Howard Stern interview is great too.

A workflow language is only as good as it’s engine. Nextflow was mentioned. I think what most people want is probably closer to Airflow, although it takes some time getting it up t…

Sites hosted behind cloudflare have been down for me for 8 days now. It seems like there’s something up with TLS connections. As a user, there is no easy recourse. I had to create …

Most my adult life I’ve used Ivory (usually bars), or Dr Bronners (liquid) with a handful of other things at random. The only wash I like besides those would be the Kiehl’s Musk wa…

I guess post on HN and hope for upvotes. Several websites behind CloudFlare are failing to load for me, notably for me, anaconda.org (104.17.92.24). Other sites have also been flak…

Well not the best, but at least the 95th percentile probably.

More than the CDN possibly - I am not getting whatsapp images (I wouldn't expect those to be served by CDN, but maybe).

> not fair to your employees Certainly it's not fair to the employees. Certainly they probably didn't expect to get 10 men and 0 women in their current makeup. There may be no inte…

they could always admit their ratios are way off, fire everybody, and create 10 new backend job applications - 5 of which will go to men and 5 to women, so that way their hiring is…

I’ve spent some time in Western Oklahoma on and off the last 10 years. 10 years ago there was almost nothing. 5 years ago they started popping up, 2 years ago it started to just be…

Can you name one item at an organic grocery store that was eaten by modern humans even 50000 years ago?

I can't really image 11 ppb is significant for glyphosate. That's below the historic 20 ppb threshold for lead . I'm not sure where the .1 ppb study comes from, it'd be interesting…

I have a 2017 GTI and it has a dial you can use to cycle through things but it’s not ideal. Certain things are useless though, like the keyboard for maps, but you can use voice con…
