Except that Raymond Hill explicitly refuses to accept financial contributions of any sort and directs people to support the list maintainers.

I've been using Firefox pretty much exclusively since its first release (I did a year or two on Opera about a decade ago), and I can't remember it failing to render any site at all…

According to the ruling, the exposure of your location history is the automatic price of conventional cell-phone usage—which, just as Carpenter noted, is a "pervasive and insistent…

> I don’t think a ruling about private records held by a private entity like google or a phone company naturally extends to surveillance of public places. Even when the surveillanc…

> Has Level 2 been cracked? It's tricky because you have to chain multiple exploits, but yes. You can temporarily downgrade from RDP2 to RDP1 via glitching. At that point, you have…

The idea is that specifications are not copyrightable, but implementations are. So, the first team reverse engineers the work and writes a spec for the second team to work from. Th…

Recently as in the last 8 years when they overhauled it. It really was slow as heck back in 2016, but the e10s effort really, really paid off in terms of performance. It runs notic…

Yeah, but. The side-effect of catching criminals and protecting the children is that they also provide a searchable database of everyone's historical travel habits. It's my opinion…

I'd like to read this list, but the color scheme is among the least accessible that I've ever come across. Dark, greyish-blue text with dark, bluish-grey highlighting over a dark g…

I think that minimum redundancy is a wiser ethos. There are a couple of places where the weight penalty versus cost of failure makes the decision a no-brainer. In my case, that mea…

No, that's not dumb at all. Inputs are filthy and sensors fail. If you're not comparing all available sensor data to confirm your understanding of reality, then a single sensor fai…

It's easy to screenshot or physically print a QR code during setup.

> When I tell people I work on authentication software, I nearly always hear some version of the same story: I hate multifactor authentication. No, really. People hate this stuff. …

If I were responsible for a mechanical doping program, then I'd install the motors for the leadout and mountain domestique riders and leave the team leader clean. Who cares if they…

I think the incongruity that the original commenter was pointing out is that Wildberger critiqued radicals by saying that they're imprecise approximations that rely on the problema…

I mean... the same should be said for pretty much every vehicle. The F150 maxes out at the bottom of the hubs.

It's not a python thing. 1-(-2), distribute the negative.

You just reminded me of one of my favorite Tony Joe White songs, so thanks! Tony Joe White - Even Trolls Love Rock and Roll https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fJMNJTEhuw

That article was incorrect when written and has since been retracted. The link now takes you to a rewrite that reaffirms Microsoft's commitment to TPM v2 and that reports Microsoft…

This comes across a little aggressive and braggy. Perhaps a better way to write it would be: > I much prefer reading something that is imperfect but written by a human to something…

As someone who rage-quit on the third question, I'm going to say that frustration is a likely experience.

If buying isn't owning, then pirating isn't stealing.
