To be fair, that’s one of the worst tunnels in any city. I’d rather drive into NYC.

Yes, this is standard in the forgery business - dust and speckle filter, drop the res, ensure the light is balanced, and maybe blur if you can get away with it.

The thing that changes this is good public transport. Not buses - buses have a mindset issue. Subways, light rail, and bikes for the last mile.

I would think the build system would only build the binaries or other compiled source. The CI pipeline would build and test.

BGP and DNS survive due to relative obscurity, despite everyone using it in some way. Web devs do not give a shit about BGP (sadly.)

It's not "hopeless to manage", learn some networking and be forever rewarded. Same with learning to manage devices, servers, etc. I develop now but I'd be much less valiable without that background.

Amen. I find generic scripts to be way more mangemaable. You can still use them with docker, but you can also just buy any Linux VM and go. Also, easy to backup.

It's 1000% worth it. The skills bleed over onto Mac, and now Windows. Best skills of my tech life, almost.

Just firewall off all management interfaces and allow via IP as needed. It's still possible your webserver will get become vulnerable, but you'll prob here about it here if it is.

Isn't it so relieving now that the pendulum is swinging back? I'm so glad I moved into C# and non-web dev/management and got out of that rat race. Tech always swings back and forth, but I'm so very happy to have made it

It seems fairly obvious once you trace the funding on a lot of nodes. Plus that court case that got dropped with the child porn guy - they dropped it because they refused to show how they found him. 0day most likely.

It's not too confusing to me. It gets the IRS off the trail of the actual person getting the money - they don't care that the IRS still wants money - they are confident that it wont get traced. It's truely obfuscation.

People remember HIPAA poorly? Ive worked very closly in the industry, and I think it was a net positive. It could have been better, but it sure beat what was there.

Last I saw her, she had transitioned to WoW and was scraping by running conventions. I wish I remembered her last name, I'm curious what her daughter made of herself.

My favorite story: growing up, I was really good friends with this girl who's Mom was an Everquest dev (like, the first one.) Post-launch, she became so addicted to her own game, she had to quit her job and lived in a small apt, forgoi

Yeah, they totally are. You aren't able to, in detail, say, operate on someone while they write in pain. Or, slowly cut up someone with a swored and watch their organs fall out as you laugh and kick salt in it. You can't try an

Either op means that going into it, a lof of America was not firm in their predictions - people were firm last time, and a of them were wrong, so were weary to do it again. It could also likely be that some states were small margins, and so

Use $15 worth of hireable Photoshop to create a decent looking image with all of them? Even just squares of profile photos put together, but I almost guarantee a better job could be easily done.

If only average grandma's were just limited to grandma's. I don't know a single person who isn't a gamer or IT person that can properly use a firewall as they exist now.

I'm well aware it's not a security feature and I know there are ways to punch holes, but in practice, a lot of machines are still relying on it. The number of IoT devices alone that would be screwed if they were public is massive

Of course it's more than enough, but it's still barely done. We should have co2 emissions under control too, but we don't.

Setting aside the idea of intentional coverup, China is still the most likely area origin. Normalized working/eating close to all animals, wet markets, pollution, lack of food care (incl refridgeration), unclean water, and more all mak

I know vitamine E acetate is a scourage in the vaping community, but I was under the impression that outbreak was a distincly different thing, at a different time. Although the uninteresting answer is often true, I do dislike that people re

I want ipv6 as much as anyone, but we are not spending enough time preparing for NATs death. It's responsible for far more security than we as a collective would like to admit and there's a lot more we could be doing now to get re

Pretty sure youd have better luck purchasing a perpetual license to one from a top tier owner.
