I’ve not tried with 10gbps or faster links, but since we’re talking home use my success with 2.5 gbps links on standard amd64 hardware would suggest you’re wrong. Modern CPUs are q…

I’ve always solved this with Multiple Active Result Sets and stored procedures. Collect the data in the stored procedure with temp/in-memory tables and return minimal, non-duplicat…

With secure boot, full disk encryption, and robust backups, this risk should be largely mitigated, right? That’s what I’m personally banking on. I think anyone with the resources t…

MacOS assumes you won’t full screen every app because all of them ship with large enough, high enough resolution monitors that full screening a single app is a waste of valuable sp…

Yes, and highlighting a failing in email that cannot be fixed, but which is addressed in other services where confidentiality is desired.

OIDC is usually limited to a small selection of providers.

Any properly grounded device will do that with specifically incorrect electrical wiring and/or a shoddy charger. Did this happen with a properly wired outlet, and an undamaged Appl…

Another example for all you computer folks out there: ultimately, all software engineering is just moving electrons around. But imagine how hard your job would be if you could only…

I really miss the feature of CSR devices that allowed keyboard and mouse use before OS boot, and wish any modern Bluetooth receiver was capable of it. Is it a patent issue?

Am I misunderstanding this? Isn’t this just the view, rating, and comment data required to offer the service? Building an interface to search that data is exactly how you’d evaluat…

While I’m all for physical controls, especially ones that self-adjust to reflect the state of the remote device at all times, I wonder if the author just doesn’t know you can finel…

wget begs to differ. Kidding aside, where exactly does it end? How do you consider when you’ve hit “too much” and how many pieces must be split out when you do? Should every produc…

This seems to cover many common pain points, but I’ve written my fair share of .NET serializers and for anything I build now I’d just use protocol buffers. Robust support, handles …

I’ve never actually been detained or questioned (but know people who have). If I were I’d tell them the truth that I feel more vulnerable during the chaos of travel and don’t want …

I’m probably a little odd but I wipe my devices before international travel. All my travel documents are printed. If they want to steal a device, I’ll just replace it. When I arriv…

READ COMMITTED is great for applications that need a coherent snapshot of the database but not necessarily the absolutely most recent data, which in my experience is actually most …

Everything works fine via iCloud private relay. No account or other mitigations required. So perhaps it’s not VPNs that are blocked and instead the traffic you’re sharing an IP wit…

svchost.exe is literally what the name implies. It's a generic service host. You pass it a dll and an entrypoint (via command line arguments and registry keys) and it runs it. You …

Obviously not? Where are you living where even if fiber is available in your city, it’s not just a small section you’d need to deliberately account for in your selection of housing…

Bitlocker requires a Professional or greater license of Windows, but needs neither an internet connection nor a Microsoft account. I have mine setup with TPM + PIN, and have archiv…
