Something internal that doesnt need to be understood can usually just not be written in the kinds of organizations I'm familiar with. Writing because something written is required …

Removing equally frequent measures of normal by leaving enforcement checks to discretion is basically a method to create a biased system to target anyone who is suspicious to any a…

All of these concerns, even #1, have applied to communist car driving America and its 25% theft of everything.. I would tax the beejesus out of energy use and personal road use and…

That's a strange way to put it. What teems with more life than an open sewer?

I think people who tell you it is 19th century live in countries that use IBAN/SWIFT to push money instead of checks to tell people an account is available to drain.

The other explanation would more likely be paying lawyers. The fact that one has money from thin air for lawyers can not be challenged in court.

I agree that suckless has a presentation problem in the workplace and the small things being hard are often working against you. I don't agree that you should spend time configurin…

IBM was the other offer on the table. Scott managed to scuttle the deal but his ability to do so was far from a certainty since he was already out as CEO. Google was pretty much in…

The convenience of offering to re-login if your session is expired and you hit a site where you use it?

It's certainly very interesting since Java was among the few high level languages that had unlimited access to C OS devs in theory, but it doesn't show this in practice. I always f…

Assuming that's not a M-W-F schedule you could look for someone who wants a part time roommate or house/pet sitter. As long as you are able to resume commuting and stick to living …

It sure is funny how he manages to always be in the group that needs protection of millions of little voices from whoever has the tiny sliver of power to treat his crimes equally d…

A 14℅ reduction in something that happens to 5%+ of people measurably and probably lowers your developmental outcome even if it is bellow the threshold of clear measure (a weaker s…

The original price of .com, .org, .net, etc was $50/year, then $35, then network solutions lost its monopoly and today you still pay less.. Of course the other issue is the future …

They could simply identify these like they did for EV certs. Whether you trust one of them more or less is then your choice, (certainly I wouldn't continue on a random e-shop with …

It seems interesting to me that even if we consider Google as a monolith, the authorities with abilities to compel Google are not monolithic and have varied rights and varied legit…

I don't really see why the problem is with the EUs requirement and not the browsers brain dead implementation of trust. Put these certificates into the store and mark the connectio…

I don't see any relative change between Germany and Eastern Europe that would cut down on its brain drains (or economic migration cycles.) I think countries comparable to Japan hav…

Protected class is a meaningless distinction in this context. Hetzner is not checking your tax records to determine if you are a cryptoholder, they are denying a specific transacti…
