I was curious, so I checked. I don't know if this is a reputable source: https://subsidytracker.goodjobsfirst.org/parent/space-explor... If that's correct, then yeah, I struggle to find much to be upset about

When you've been given an epidural, you are generally required to be in a bed. (This doesn't answer your question, but I think it is relevant.)

Thanks! I did not know that. That changes a lot.

I'm not sure I follow. I am a US citizen and have never lived abroad, but my understanding is that US Citizens living abroad must still pay the US a full federal income tax. It's graduated/progressive, of course, so the actua

https://www.ic3.gov You won't hear back from them, though. But, at least for US citizens (and possibly for anyone?), this is as far as I know the closest thing there is to an "Internet 911".

As per the demo, in order for Siri to rotate your passwords "for you", you have to open the Password app, go to their dashboard on weak or exposed passwords, and click a button asking it to rotate your password account by account.

You’re welcome! I only ran in to this last week and I might not have this straight yet because I haven’t had time to sit and untangle it. I have a private repo that has a release workflow that publishes a Python package to the forgejo packa

Yup, I’ve done this. I use a fly.io proxy that runs nginx, fail2ban, and that forwards to my tailnet where Caddy resolves to the actual instance. It’s critical that you disable local registration - I have authentik (only available on the ta

This is called KYC and is a standard part of operating a financial service. Seems to me like it should be part of internet infrastructure services as well. And, I thought, in some cases already is?

There are strict rules about not talking about open investigations because of so-called "Tipping-off" rules. It can carry some pretty serious penalties - jail time, fines. I agree it would be nice if the FBI itself made some annou

Thanks... hence, 3-2-1 backups with offsite :) appreciate it though. Will definitely be rolling my own NAS in the future, I just needed something easy at the time.

Having worked in compliance engineering I have also reported through the IC3 portal, and spoken with lawyers and analysts who register with FinCEN (which, to be clear, is maybe just a step beyond "My Uncle works at Nintendo...") a

Same. I lost a lot of photos this way. I've recently moved over to Immich + Borg backup with a 3-2-1 backup between a local synology NAS and BorgBase. Painful lesson, but at least now I feel much more confident. I've even built so

I've recently started hosting my own forgejo instance. It works so well! Free tailscale for connectivity. I expose mine over fly.io proxy, also free, but not to be done without caution.

Same! I've also recently exposed mine to the internet through a fly.io proxy, though. So far, no issues, but I'm keeping a close eye.

Correct. Not sure about a sql archive, but the kiwix ZIM archive of the top 1M English articles including (downsized but not minimized) images is 43GiB: https://download.kiwix.org/zim/wikipedia/ And the entire Eng

It goes a lot further than plan mode though, in fact I would say the key difference of mikado refactors from waterfall refactors is that you don’t do all the planning up front with mikado. If anything you try to do as little planning as pos

I’ve been using a form of the Mikado Method based on a specific ordering of git commits (by message prefix) along with some pre commit hook scripts, governed by a document: https://docs.eblu.me/how-to/agent-change-proce

Thanks, it's also available via my 1password cloud account, so it'd have to be a joint fire at my home and the 1password data center (and my phone, for that matter). Pretty bad day I feel. Unrelated note: this was the first time I

I recently orchestrated this, although in my case I've chosen to use 1password's cloud based store as my primary secret store, so I'm accepting some exposure right off the bat that you might not be comfortable with. I've

I've sworn off Sony products - well, as much as one can do so - for the past, what, 20 years? - because of that. It's kind of funny to me because I don't usually have a high opinion of "wallet activism", but one day

I just deployed my own forgejo instance on my private tailnet this week. I've had a ton of fun mirroring up to or down from github, I set up a devpi proxy for my python packages, and just generally "cleaned house" in my perso

Not stupid at all. Definitely yes. Don't have the numbers on hand but it's orders of magnitude more CO2-equivalent released per kg-mile, especially when you factor in the fact that they are using methane. Of course the reality is

That's my thought as well. I predict we'll be seeing SDK's for generating github workflows by mid-2026. Maybe pulumi will get an extension for it. (I'm well aware that codegen yaml has been a thing for a long time, but I

Software is written with a context, and the context degrades. It must be renewed. It rots, sorry.

Definitely more of a fish vs zsh situation, in my opinion. tmux, to me, feels like "modern screen". It has some cool features, but at the end of the day, it just wants to be a terminal multiplexer. Great! Zellij on the other hand

As I understand it, these constellations are all low enough in orbit that stuff deorbits from atmospheric drag relatively quickly. I think you get a few years at most for these sorts of satellites. The "Kessler syndrome" worst cas
