It's literally the perfect way to do this. The large number of people account for each other. And since police murders in the US are so common, people would glaze right over the headline. An assassination with no witnesses would stir u

This sounds like it was an assassination attempt. I'd move out of the country.

I use SMBSync2 (android) to back up my photos daily to a network drive. Then I created a nightly job that mounts an encrypted drive, syncs the photos, then unmounts the drive. Finally, I just created a job that uploads the encrypted drive t

I've been slow upgrading my Windows over the years. I stuck with XP Pro SP2 for a very long time. I wish I could still use it. Now I'm on Win7 and probably will be for awhile. It seems every other Windows version sucks. I'll

The foreclosure was inevitable. I bought too high about 8 years ago and my house is really old. It needs more money in work than I'd ever make back. Such is life I suppose. A string of hard-earned lessons.

I was laid off new years. I've been doing development for 10 years and specializing in salesforce for 7 years. I haven't found the right position yet, but I know I've been burned out for a little bit now. I've been consi

I've written C# for the last 10 or so years now. I was a lot heavier in C# the first 5 years until my career changed paths. So I've gotten to watch C# "from a distance" for the last 5 years now and I'm optimistic ab

Metal Fabrication. I've actually been taking metal classes for the last 6 months and just finished my first pair of motorcycle foot pegs on the CNC machine last night.

Sadly, there will always be tech workers willing to do this for the right price. As I get older, I'm starting to wonder if not following my "tech morals" would've brought more success.

I thought it was already well-known and assumed Skype has backdoor(s) in their software.

I was always able to completely ignore the naysayers because it's a lot easier to judge than create. Still, it wasn't enough for success. I discovered it's the process of creation I really love, not creating technological thi

None of my projects went anywhere, and eventually, I gave up. I used to have the rosy view that with enough work you'll get there. That's largely untrue. You also need to know the right people (connections) and be very lucky. I ha

Recent to me is the last few years, technology-wise. Your timeline may look different.

Why's that? I understand the message would increase in size because of the encryption, but I think it would be technically feasible now. Didn't even apple just introduce encryption into their messenger? My issue with apple's

I've been thinking a lot about PGP and other encrypted messengers lately. It's incredibly hard to get a lot of people to agree on one messaging app besides default SMS. I wish there was an open source suite of tools for mobile&#x2

I use the Amazon S3 and Route 53 route and pay $.50 to $1.50 a month. It's dirt cheap for solid, reliable static hosting.

I dunno if it will help, besides maybe for some ideas, but when I created my blog a year or so ago, I wanted something like a site generator without running anything on the backend.[1] I ended up doing everything in CSS/HTML/JS&#x

I run uBlock and got a message saying the site is down. Disabled it and got it to work. I think one way to differentiate yourself in this kinda area is making it run without any backend tech like jekyll, python, etc. Make it run client-side

The first time this was announced, I was excited to pick one up. From the article comments, I read about RetroPie. Since I had a raspberry pi lying around, I loaded it with BerryBoot and put RetroPie on it. A 20 year old Playstation to USB

Hopefully this works out. I've been doing some metal fabrication lately and have thought about doing commission work in the future. I see other makers on IG selling stuff, but the experience leaves a lot to be desired.

I dig mine: http://milge.com It's all client side. Runs on JSON, JS, HTML and CSS. Super cheap to host. I'm mainly documenting my journey into metal fabrication as a programmer.

Because it's a tax writeoff and the more time workers are at the office, the more work is getting done. Or so the managerial thought process goes.

I've tried OK Google recently under my motorcycle helmet just to change music. It wasn't up to the task. Somehow The Google Music unchecked the downloaded music only, and OK google played radio racking up a few hundred MB of data
