i am so grateful for this man's effort and content. his ability to distill topics into super accessible and actionable nuggets of information is something i've never really experie…

also shouldn't be confused with this old bumblebee project, in which a space makes a large difference in what is rm -rf'd: https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee-Old-and-abbandoned/is…

their CDN is omicroncdn.net - cannot make this stuff up

viper, which nicely handles env vars, also can watch for config changes: https://github.com/spf13/viper#watching-and-re-reading-confi... if you're rotating creds or need to open/cl…

strange: drunk driving continues to cause grave personal, public health and economic harm to non-participants and has for, what, well over 50 years? yet the US seems to be largely …

boy howdy, with all the flak i hear about this and the awesome talent in tech, you'd figure an entrepreneur or 1000 would take a stab at this, make it better, charge less. apparent…

> Masks don’t help for privacy alrighty then. glad that's cleared up. seriously, what's up with this binary thinking where there's just no room for nuance whatsoever? "no, patching…

there are also eg privacy advocates who may now be able to wear masks without too much hassle for the foreseeable future to defeat mass surveillance. for example, pre pandemic, pol…

i really like my https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-ar750s/ : comes with a GUI on top of openWRT that allows easy static IP assignment from MAC, wireguard config as either server …

what hardware/software/data are you, or anyone else, using to get these readings?

i consider all tech - all forums, social media, etc. - to be similar to a special forces group (or pick your favorite non-violent elite group). it's best deployed with a clear obje…

great: i'm thrilled that the RPG-7, a weapon that is over half a century old, is so awesome. let's cancel all US variants of this tried and true beast and send the money directly t…

impossible is focusing on restaurants more than mass market. observe eg partnerships with chefs/restaurants. a fairly large amount of beef in the US is consumed in restaurants/made…

you seemed to have missed the industrial part of the original comment. there is a reason you haven't waltzed into the horrible facilities that end up in documentaries, etc., to inc…

nah, the DC office's tech talent ain't bad, although like most engineers they're not the best at efficiently communicating technical stuff to, say, staff lawyers

the web UI, logging, graphs, top blocked sites/queries are all really nice to have and are great for diagnosing badly behaving apps/clients/websites. i am sure that this is all pos…

awesome - always wanted to try to create a vegan/clean meat ETF that isn't mostly tech - will check this out

i am just a random internet person and definitely not a financial advisor. i did find this really helpful when i didn't know much about wealth over long time horizons. https://jlco…

what does that statement mean, though? for example, if you bought GameStop you would have 6x'd. are we to assume that GME is twice the "investment" that BTC is? twice as impressive…

yeah, but you're cleverly (or nefariously) pitching this as both a neutral unit of measure - say, $/square meter in the US - then right away using it as a non-neutral measurement b…

interesting: given that it may at any time hit that line of GPL'd code, your claim is that the rest of the code can be MIT licensed? i am not a lawyer but that sure seems like a bo…

this is nice - it looks like it's linked against at least one GPL lib (fuzzywuzzy) though, so the MIT license almost certainly isn't allowed. looks like there's only one usage thou…

this is a tough lesson to learn, but let it be known that any and all information asymmetry available can and will be used against you. needless to say, it's critical you become as…
