    Thank you for posting this - I couldn't figure out the intent of the initial post without this comment.

    I'm there for my kids, and I am consistent. Consistency is something that I felt I never had from my dad, and it's so important to just do what you promise. Kids have good days and…

    I hadn't considered outside council. That's a good idea. The issue with everybody being remote is that our corporate safe is difficult to get into (we are on a two-key system), but…

    That's an interesting idea, thanks. And I agree- we do not use the root accounts for anything. I'm much more concerned about the bus factor with physical key access.

    Yes, you are totally correct. We don't use our root account now, and we keep our our corporate Yubikeys in a safe with a 2-key access lock. The issue is that fewer and fewer people…

    Ask HN: How do you manage AWS root MFA in a remote work environment?

    As offices are going more and more remote, how do you handle your AWS root 2 Factor credentials? We have typically used physical hardware keys that we store in a safe, but with emp…

    What's even more interesting to me is that HEB has a chief medical officer on staff at all times as well.

    I disagree. If everybody held the opinion that their actions wouldn't amount to anything, nothing would ever change. Climate change is the single largest event that will occur in o…

    I agree - I know that my organization would see an increase in performance, as 90%+ of our transactions are committed. I am excited to see this in action.

    Having been taken for a lot of money by contractors in the past, getting the local DA to issue criminal complaints are near impossible. Recently had a GC on a job fake receipts, fa…

    A lot of the power that a fridge consumes is related to the defrost of coils. I don't care when my fridge heats up the coils, so that would be an easy load shift for a fridge that …

    I know that where I live, if the power factor is below .4, the meters can't accurately record the consumption. Kind of rare, but it does happen.

    Yeah, you are right. I think what they were trying to say is that the transformers are fed on the high side by one of three phases (as is typical), and that the residential step-do…

    I wish it were that easy. I am an ex-foster parent, and the thought of losing my children when I had them as foster children tore me up. It takes months and months of waiting, cour…

    I have had a Volt since 2012, and typically fill it up about once every 4 months.

    The one interesting example when I think about domains is Nissan.com. Nissan (the auto manufacturer) was unable to secure nissan.com, but it really hasn't hurt them in terms of sea…
