He transferred $21,000 of the public funds to his own pocket in an honest and legal transaction. On the whole this strikes me as a virtuous and patriotic thing for him to have done and I can only aspire to be this enterprising in my own bus

Maybe that statement should come with an explicit topological constraint on the meaning of “inside” the body. Viewed as a donut, gut contents would be considered “outside.”

Maybe Amazon should take a cue from the service industry and have a lot more sex and drugs in their warehouses. Right now it's all misery and desperation.

“If money had to be clean before it was spent, we’d all be living in caves.” Any attempt by feds to steal this money or sanction Redox for using it should be considered a direct attack on the project for its own sake, meaning the feds feel

A reasonably sophisticated attacker could arrange for the entire team to get SIM-swapped and suspended from Facebook when they launch an attack. If only there were some way to have a central rallying point for everyone to meet at. Perhaps s

It's just multiuser keepass with integrations for active directory and such. It's not surprising that three startups building the same thing would realize they could merge and charge 10x the price they could get if they were compe

This is a no-true-Scotsman argument where none was asked for, but thank you for linking to Wikipedia properly. “Ethical” hacker is also a nonsense term. Ethics means the study of moral philosophy, it is not a synonym for “good” and to use i

That might be an interesting project, configuring a Raspberry Pi to emulate a single transistor and then using them to build a computer.

Have you looked at shielded twisted pair or optical fiber for that run? I have a similar project planned but at the moment I’m not looking forward to trenching the cable into the ground so it hasn’t moved forward yet.

I am sure Michael Larabel knows what he is doing, given how long he has been benchmarking. I think both devices have soldered memory though, so the amount of installed RAM isn’t flexible.

If you install dwww, all of the documentation installed on the system is made accessible from a local web server. Not sure how secure that is these days but I thought it was really cool 20 years ago and it very useful to me.

The difference in RAM size should not matter as long as both systems have their memory channels filled out and the workload fits in memory.

It speaks to financial desperation more than cynical profit grubbing. They need to juice sales and fully recognize the income to remain solvent.

I'm wondering how much of that language is common to all publicly traded companies and how often the clawback policy is actually activated. Maybe the board sees enforcing the clause to be detrimental because it would impair their abili

That’s all it is, they ran into an engineering problem and they’re trying to get the world to bend to their will instead of solving the problem because they think it will be easier. Mark’s arrogance is nauseating.

What you are running into is that every supposed feature of Discord and Slack is actually a fatal bug. There is no replacement for IRC.

Why on earth would Facebook think it is ok to bypass that? This should be considered a violation of the CFAA. Start putting Facebook execs in federal prison.

It is two different modalities of heating though. Electrical heating is 95% efficient at dumping energy from the grid into your house, but a heat pump is using energy from the grid to concentrate and move heat from outside the house to the

The simple solution is to fill the canal in with rocks and soil. It ought never to have been dug, because the economic interests of Illinois should not be allowed to threaten Michigan’s environment.
