i am so grateful for this man's effort and content. his ability to distill topics into super accessible and actionable nuggets of information is something i've never really experienced before. it's almost too good to be true

strange: drunk driving continues to cause grave personal, public health and economic harm to non-participants and has for, what, well over 50 years? yet the US seems to be largely "functioning".

boy howdy, with all the flak i hear about this and the awesome talent in tech, you'd figure an entrepreneur or 1000 would take a stab at this, make it better, charge less. apparently there's gazillions to be made by even charging

there are also eg privacy advocates who may now be able to wear masks without too much hassle for the foreseeable future to defeat mass surveillance. for example, pre pandemic, police in Berlin would absolutely stop and harass anyone wearin

i really like my https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-ar750s/ : comes with a GUI on top of openWRT that allows easy static IP assignment from MAC, wireguard config as either server or client, etc. you can always dr

i consider all tech - all forums, social media, etc. - to be similar to a special forces group (or pick your favorite non-violent elite group). it's best deployed with a clear objective in mind - learn more about Haskell from gurus, se

great: i'm thrilled that the RPG-7, a weapon that is over half a century old, is so awesome. let's cancel all US variants of this tried and true beast and send the money directly to NASA: win-win all around, except by those develo

impossible is focusing on restaurants more than mass market. observe eg partnerships with chefs/restaurants. a fairly large amount of beef in the US is consumed in restaurants/made to order type stuff; that's what they'r

you seemed to have missed the industrial part of the original comment. there is a reason you haven't waltzed into the horrible facilities that end up in documentaries, etc., to include: they are not approved on any non-cable network d

nah, the DC office's tech talent ain't bad, although like most engineers they're not the best at efficiently communicating technical stuff to, say, staff lawyers

the web UI, logging, graphs, top blocked sites/queries are all really nice to have and are great for diagnosing badly behaving apps/clients/websites. i am sure that this is all possible using some slick openWRT command line&#

what does that statement mean, though? for example, if you bought GameStop you would have 6x'd. are we to assume that GME is twice the "investment" that BTC is? twice as impressive? twice as meaningful to the world? no, of co

yeah, but you're cleverly (or nefariously) pitching this as both a neutral unit of measure - say, $/square meter in the US - then right away using it as a non-neutral measurement based on the individual (/your/ $60k - as

interesting: given that it may at any time hit that line of GPL'd code, your claim is that the rest of the code can be MIT licensed? i am not a lawyer but that sure seems like a borderline case at best.

by maximente 6y ago
this is nice - it looks like it's linked against at least one GPL lib (fuzzywuzzy) though, so the MIT license almost certainly isn't allowed. looks like there's only one usage though, the other is an unused import, so may be

this is a tough lesson to learn, but let it be known that any and all information asymmetry available can and will be used against you. needless to say, it's critical you become as informed as your adversar- err, colleagues, when spend

like anything in life, there are tradeoffs. the US passport is great because it allows easy employment access to US tech companies, who pay absurd amounts of money; if you live outside the US for at least 330 days, you aren't taxed fed
