We'll trade you Alberta for the West Coast. I know, you're probably telling yourself "This is a terrible deal! Cali has a bigger population and economy than all of Canada!" But just remember, we helped you score Alaska f

More importantly, could Docker be ported to WASM? Because then I could just send the server to the client. Send the whole cluster, run it all in a single threaded browser process. Make the client part of the cloud, sharing in all of the clo

Plot twist: Commercial jails suddenly lose their funding, but a billionaire's family buys them all up in the nick of time. Only one inmate is lost in the confusion; his lawyers claim that he may also be a victim of identity theft.

Yeah, implementing a Vault client in the browser is just asking for trouble. Currently, I am copy-pasting into the browser, which has two obvious vulnerabilities: the clipboard, which is accessible to everything, and the login page, which c

On a tangent, has anyone tried using Vault as a personal keyring, rather than using a cloud based password manager? In particular, how much would I need to trust each device that runs a Vault instance, if I was concerned mainly about malwar

This reminds me of an incident report I saw back when I used to work in a warehouse. A forklift driver raised the boom too far, and smashed it into a high power lamp. He immediately let go of the controls, and decided to get away from the f

Actually, this is a real issue. For one, there is the Wayback Machine, which could very well see increased usage and mindshare as legally mandated content takedowns increase. For another, if, say, Facebook wanted to harvest data from this n

+1 for keeping the [A]GPL. As I understand it, the CRUD service that backs this would be separate software, which only communicates with this editor through an API, so it would not be affected by ORY's license. If ORY was a full stack

Looking at the ID format in the first example, I have to recommend against including the protocol ("https:") in a key/ID. This makes it hard for people to later upgrade from HTTP to HTTPS, because it breaks all of those refer

So, about that federated DELETE operation. In a decentralized network, we can't unilaterally delete a shared piece of content; that is one of the main features of decentralization. Even providing that verb seems kind of deceptive to me

Or someone starts up a city-wide drone delivery service for brick & mortar retailers. It could also offer a huge safety improvement for herb & powder retailers.

SQL is familiar, but it is not simple. The vocabulary is large, and inconsistent between implementations. It is hard to predict the performance of a complex query, without resorting to rules of thumb. Understanding EXPLAIN ... PLAN requires

If I was confident in a GAI's ability and willingness to emulate me, then I might be willing to grant it my identity, after I die. My work would carry on, and accelerate, while I would still get to have the final experience of death, f

Sounds cool! But why do we need to use a Twitter or FB account to sign up? I am trying to eliminate the closed silos from my life right now, because they represent the polar opposite of "transparent, flexible, democratic".

Hah, reminds me of snub nosed fishing vessels. If a commercial fishing license costs ~$1k per foot of boat length per year, then cutting 3' off of the bow seems like a great idea. You can even temporarily reattach this ornamental nose,

React, as it initializes into a server rendered DOM on the client, has a requirement that the server rendered markup is exactly identical to that which it would have rendered itself as an SPA. TL:DR this is required by the shadow DOM, an op

Wow, the modern PHP community is on fire! I had no idea. I basically rage-quitted PHP years ago, after repeatedly inheriting a series of Wordpress wrecks. Just curious, how does a PHP application handle server side rendering? By shelling ou

Good coffee shops are certainly adequate, and many of them, in Europe anyway, have a section that is nicely furnished for a full day's work. There are some extra perks to a good co-working space, though. It is library-quiet, and you ar

For expats of most countries, if you spend no more than about a month per year in your native country and don't have property there, then you can declare non-residency. This way, you don't have to pay income tax to your home count

Tools for automating the mundane tasks of running a co-op, sounds like a great idea for a project. Something along the lines of the GNU tool suite. How does one build and maintain a co-op? Could anyone recommend a book on the subject, that

Looks like a lot of the top-voted suggestions are only applicable to a single country. If your suggestion has a major restriction like that, then would you please declare it upfront?
