I keep thinking about how I disagreed with this comment before I even finished reading the username, 'phpisthebest'. I've been thinking for hours about red-state vs blue-state coding and platform tastes. I bet that in the fut

The man literally promoted the idea that Nancy Pelosi's husband was attacked because he visits gay bars, or something. How is that not alt-right? Yet, I fear you may be correct about that 85% statistic, nevertheless.

Well, I've been homeless and poor as well, and I've spent significant chunks of time down. I too have had the experience you describe, of losing everything owned. Then, I got a job at a big tech company and got to see how the othe

What's important in understanding falsehoods like the above post is the work they do. It's patently clear to any of us who have experienced poverty that Eleison23 hasn't actually looked into any of this. Ignore that part fo

Planning this myself. I use a Pelican 1495 briefcase and I carry it with me at all times. It's waterproof and padded and terribly strong. It locks (non TSA approved, so carryon only!) with a passcode. I carry a small laptop and a deskt

Fascinating -- I too once had to choose between my mastery of Dvorak and mastery of vim. I choose vim, but I agree that I was forced to choose by how hecking terrible it is to use vim under Dvorak. If anyone who is reading wants a cool proj

Elon did quite a bit more than that. And I'm afraid there's no pill for being alive during a collapse, but here you are, and the party's just getting going.

Not necessarily -- you're universalizing your experience. I learned vim in the nineties and still use it daily. I can play it like a piano. There is simply no substitute for deep-trained muscle memory. I don't futz; I just sort of

It's not worth changing, because you never experienced Symantec THINK C on System 7 in 1999, back before macs were cool :P

Before anyone asks: the cold path is long-term logging and storage, as opposed to the hot path, i.e. real-time telemetry. (Or at least that's what we called them at the last CloudCo I worked at). Generally, you try to keep PII (persona

I'm more worried about cold path logs. Like, what if Twitter just randomly has the past year's worth of geolocation data on so-and-so, and it happens to be exposed in an SQL query, and that query happens to get run and the results

You're very welcome, and thank you. Any APT worthy of the name will be already moving. Personally? I'd be really worried for folks checking Twitter from Ukraine. That's a whole lot of compromising data and I know who wants it

I need everyone to think very carefully about the attack surface, and how long it has been left unprotected, and how long it will be unprotected. Now, I need you to consider the following proposition: that eyeballs are to codebases, dash

Interesting claim -- what's your reasoning? I would suppose it would depend on the cc of the motorbike, so, tentatively, yes, that makes intuitive sense -- a Honda Ruckus for example might not be much heavier than 3 e-bikes. All the sa

All excellent points, but I think there's something like 2-5x as much tire surface area in contact with the road, and something like a x10 difference in weight, but I'm quite pointedly not googling either of these hand-wavey claim

Goodness, no! There is no such thing as 'inherence' when discussing safety, that's a category mistake https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_mistake I will say, anecdotally, that 25mph can sometimes, or

Think of "idiocy" as the lack of intelligence, rather than a separate entity of its own, similarly to how high-school physics (and therefore, contemporary common sense!) understands cold as the absence of heat. This means that you

To be fair, if I had a junior dev who couldn't skim a man page of 19 000 words, I would have freestanding concerns about their ability to contribute -- being able to inhale knowledge is a core competency of any engineer. That said, I h

Thanks arxanas! This is great empirical research that definitely takes precedence over any hunch, even my own ;D One of my favourite parts of rationality is simply admitting that the data shows you're wrong

Interesting -- I have the opposite impression, and we're both just simply staring at the same pile of distinctions and disagreeing on whether it 'resembles' the workload. I imagine this will be settled by git steamrolling sap
