I built a website to organise my images and videos from a recent trip to Egypt. https://deepspaceplace.com/egypt/ It's a must visit destination if you get the chance.

I don't use containers. I just use systemd / systemctl to run the go apps. I manually update Debian on a schedule I keep. For logs I just ship them to my own app I developed that send messages to a discord server - but I might swi

This is interesting. I just fixed a Github issue where the code did not handle Em-Dash correctly. Ran some queries to check the stats there. No surprises: https://deepspaceplace.com/emdash

This is similar to what I do. Linode, Debian, Go, HTMX, SQLite (with modernc.org/SQLite so I have no CGO dependency) and Caddy. If I have apps that need a lot of storage, I just add an S3 bucket.

It might not be as easy as you think if the system has somehow survived without an upgrade for decades. Who knows, maybe it's that ancient? Back in the day I worked on CODASYL style databases (IDMS) that was EBCDIC. This is before rela

I remember back in the day when Ingress was the cool kid (running on HP-UX at our shop I think). Almost overnight there was a fork in the road and everyone went to either Orcale or SQL Server. Now I would touch anything other then Postgres.

Probably should update the title to say the article was written by Steve Wozniak.

Congrats - this is awesome. I'm enjoying lots of new songs that got recommended.

It's permissionless, as in no reporting transactions over $10k to the government, no ID checks to create an account, no names and addresses in the "global transaction log" etc. That sounds a lot like freedom to me.

As a counterpoint to this I hate it when data is treated like code. Need to create a new cost center? Raise a change request. Get an IP addressed added to a list in a firewall? CR. Bureaucracies thrive on this stuff. Even worse when master

Via an in-game purchase perhaps?

I can't tell from your tone if you are joking or not. I hope you are? Your utopia sounds a lot like Brave New World to me.

Police roadblocks to test for drugs and alcohol (aka booze bus) also show up as red on google maps.

That deal was signed by Annastacia Palaszczuk, the State Labour premier, not the federal government.

87% with no false positives. In my view many of these are not what I consider English ‘words’ - plant names, trade marks and archaic words. Still fun though.

Any mention of Delphi always brings back fond memories of my first job. We were doing amazing things with Clipper at the time, with a bit of Turbo Pascal on the side. Then windows took root and the world opened up with promises from Visual

I just used Google Maps to get to work this morning using Apple Car Play - it's awesome. There were a few annoying errors in Apple maps on my daily route that I won't have to deal with ever again.

It's not only Apple that is regressing. calc.exe crashes at startup my Win 10 machine 50% of the time. It needs a remote procedure call to work now. Activation of application Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App failed with er

Unless you get divorced and lose half. Divorce twice? Now you 're in really big trouble. What if you die before retirement? You have made the mandatory payments, but got nothing for it. What if the stock market crashes the day you reti

That's a totally valid use case. Bitcoin can be many things simultaneously.

This is very cool. I'm told you can see Mt Fuji from Tokyo on a clear day, but I never managed to see it. I did manage to see Mont Blanc from my Kitchen in Lausanne, Switzerland a few times - such a beautiful sight.

What a great story - and now I know about Lubbock, TX. Google street view has confirmed the authors' opinion.

A very weak article - is it really surprising that someone who had access to the back end was able to buy enough to drive the price up? There is a better version of the story here: https://willyreport.wordpress.com/2014&#x2F

Engineers can create amazing applications in any a language. I worked on General Ledger:Millennium (GL:M) as a youngster and I quickly came to appreciated it for what it was : an engineering marvel.

You listed a lot of bad experiences, but none of them related to security.
