I went from Unifi to Ruckus APs and never looked back. You can find older generations on eBay very inexpensively for what they are, install Ruckus Unleashed firmware on them, and o…

I used git5 from when I started in 2011 to when I left in 2017. I'm going back starting on monday, so I'm curious to try out jj. In the past 10 years it's all been github and gitla…

I agree, I've fantasized about an editor with a truly pluggable editing model which is decoupled from the other parts. Yi was kind of designed like this, I believe. You could compi…

I thought they vastly improved user-space wireguard performance? https://tailscale.com/blog/more-throughput Not sure if the kernel implementation pulled ahead again, I don't really…

This reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venti_(software) which was a content-addressible filesystem which used hashes for de-duplication. Since the hashes were computed at…

That's wild. My dentist was in that building for quite a while as well.

+1 to 0.3mg, larger doses can lead to nightmares and other issues. It also may take longer to have an effect than is commonly said. For me, it's ~3-4 hours. I'm a natural night owl…

And then you have Go, which won't even let you compile code with an unused variable...

Yeah, they are generally better but Ring and Alexa Skills are better than their Google counterparts (at least the last time I checked). I actually have a few old Nest hubs sitting …

Sadly they’re just part of the app. I run adblocking DNS on my home network, but it doesn’t make a difference with this.

I wish I could pay money to hide amazon ads on our echo show devices and not auto-opt-in to each new "experience" pane they add. They let you do it for Kindle ads and now for Prime…

Which brand do you use? I couldn't find an exact match via web search :(

Weird, I asked our TS admin to disable "override local DNS" and he claimed the option was disabled out, seemingly due to magic DNS being enabled or something. I'll see if I can get…

Is this still incompatible with split horizon DNS? Whenever I'm connected to my corporate tailnet I can no longer resolve hostnames that are registered on my personal, DHCP-assigne…

Better living through chemistry, until we’re all filed down into featureless automatons. This feature turned on for me today, and ignoring the problematic 1984-ish implications, it…

Aaron Swartz wrote a great book review of Moral Mazes[1] which touches on this. http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/bizethics

IANAPOSE (I am not a philosophy of science expert) but I think a happy medium is to observe, collect data, and look for things that are interesting, and then perform properly formu…

Interesting. I've used gopter a lot for property-based testing, though it's very complex (and impressive), and can get slow or require hacks for complex types. I'm glad this is bei…

Yeah, I think this is a major design point behind Fuschia/Zircon; they have a stable driver ABI to address this specific problem

Ctrl-f supercharger, found nothing. I agree that VW and other manufacturers are going big on EV platforms and cars, but (in the US at least) until there is a viable competitor to t…

Damn, that's a serious bummer. I hope mine doesn't break anytime soon.

If you are willing to move to Ubiquiti hardware (recommended, security breach from today notwithstanding) there's a relatively straightforward bypass method where the authenticatio…

Great article. The remarkable thing to me is that Apple is working so hard to distinguish itself from other competitors about how much they value privacy. Tim Cook famously said, "…

I don't believe making workplace changes based on data from the quarantine era makes any sense. Currently people are mostly stuck at home, so work from home is nothing like it is d…

This actually exists https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2019/03/22/705914833/epis... I think the problem is that the system has historically obfuscated a lot of the malpractice. So…
