In the late 90's with dial-up connections, most ISPs would not do this, hence the search for .su proxies. Today, it is much easier when you can spin up a VM in the cloud and control DNS entries.

Back in the late 90's and early 2000's, there were a set of hacking challenges called the Zebulun Challenges hosted by the site CyberArmy. For the 7th or 8th challenge (Lt. Kernel to Kernel), you had to find a proxy or have an rD

Walk through some IoT stuff using Stringify or ITTT. Let them help you create what is going to happen. Use the development tools on an Android device to change location to show geo-fencing triggers. Every kid there could use the "si

Maybe I'm cynical, but this looks more like a data hording scheme than a protect my privacy enhancement. If I use Google to sign in, Google and the app has that data and can monetize it. Now if I sign in using Apple, they are going to

I actually use this one all the time. I do a little wood working and if I slice open a finger, I just grab my Rockler CA glue, put some on, squeeze the slice shut and wait about a minute. If you purchase liquid bandage in a drug store, it

I will actually give more credit to the Executive programs because they require prior work experience (normally 5 years). People are much more likely to remember and be able to use the concepts they have learned in class if they can immedi

I disagree. If you are building business software, it is very helpful even as a developer. To add to that value, if you become a team lead and have management responsibilities or have to manage budgets, it becomes even more helpful.

If you are spending $150K on an MBA, you are spending way too much. In Louisiana, LSU's Executive MBA costs under $60K including all books and meals during the program. If you go Southeastern Louisiana University, their Executive MBA

Honestly, I didn't read the entire article. By the sixth paragraph, I already identified that the author was blaming the use of a tool for bad product management and software development practices. All of the problems blamed on "

Being that this is a civil suit, he has no right to counsel so anything he said can be used against him. Admitting anything was a dumb if he was planning on defending against a lawsuit.

No I do not. I do know that the Windows Phone version communicated directly with Facebook due to network traces I had done back then. It did not use an intermediary. I could see some devices using an intermediary, especially for under po

I had a Windows phone that used these API's. When Windows Phone 7 came out, Facebook didn't create the Facebook App for that OS, Microsoft did. It looked like what you expected Facebook to have built and it worked like the Faceb

The NTSB always includes whether drugs or alcohol potentially played any role in an accident and puts it in their reports for all parties. This isn't a smear tactic, just standard practice because they are trying to determine all cont

I'm pretty sure that this would drop the volume of the 0-100hz range to half the volume since we dropped the amplitude to 1/2 and shifted. Any sound system with loud subwoofers would be able to detect the difference, but woofer o

These types of programs do exist in most insurance companies in the United States. Predictive analytics against claims and clinical data to do early intervention care management is a common thing here. That said, the company has to make su

Thank you so much for #7. I'm in management now, but even during my 10 years of development, I had this same view. Maybe that comes from a work ethic drilled into my on a farm when I was a kid, but when I think about what I get paid

Absolutely. Dave Ramsey's approach is probably my favorite. Basically, don't buy it if you don't have the money for it. https://www.daveramsey.com/

Chosen by God from R. C. Sproul. It explains the sovereignty of God in salvation very well. It is one of the best explanations of Reformed Theology that I've found that is meant for a non-seminary student. https://www.amazo

There is a format to the code that allows any code to indicate initial vs. subsequent. It is important for looking for first visit cure vs. multiple visits to cure a condition.

Unfortunately, we don't have a "I'd rather only have engaged people vote anyway"-cracy because the get out the vote crowd will bus in people with the bribe of a free lunch. I never claimed I wanted a pure democracy...

If every politician is a liar, then why don't you run for office? If all of the honest people that complain that politicians are dishonest actually got off their butts and started taking over their local governments, then you wouldn&#

We don't have a democracy in the United States. We have a representative republic. There is a big difference. Not being involved in the political process just completely removes any influence you have on the process and the outcomes.
