Because A records don't mean complete control over domains. There is a difference between "I can serve content under this domain (currently)" and "I control this domain (and can decide where it points)". DNS domain

It's purpose was to make tweets fit into SMS. It's past its purpose because noone uses Twitter via SMS and people routinely circumvent it with text in images and multi-part tweets anyway.

Thanks for the name-calling. Unfortunately, it is you who is out of touch with reality: the switch to Python 3 is happening. Python 3 isn't going away, Python 2 is. All important libraries support it by now.[1] [1] https://p

It's neither shortsighted nor pointless. This way people will actually switch. Programmers won't change without being forced. Also, Python 3 was their one chance to break backwards compatibility. And there are so many breaking cha

No, that's been tried and it doesn't work well for multicopters. * They're only effective from quite some altitude, much higher than you typically fly multicopters * They'll still just soften the landing somewhat anyway

Or modernize the applications. Throw out the ad-hoc formats and parsers, replace them with machine-readable equivalents. For example, systemd finally provides a logging system that allows structured logging with key/value fields.

So? Why should people who didn't pass these tests be allowed to fly people around commercially? Also, why couldn't that company provide the certificate?

With certificate transparency, at least we'll know about it - afterwards, at least.

Favorably. Obviously, it's free and open source, with no board size / layer limitations. On the other hand, Eagle is still much more widely used in the DIY community, and most my-first-PCB-like tutorials are Eagle-based. Kicad has

+1 for copy/pasting your old comment[1] when the same discussion pops up yet again within 30 days. I suppose there's really nothing new to say here. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10514904

Private peerings are very cost-effective for DTAG because DTAG usually takes money for them.

Vodafone doesn't just offer cable service but also DSL and VDSL, and that's rock solid. The cable service slowdowns are technology inherent. But that's a last-mile problem and not a backbone problem. Also, these providers are

As long as airlines set prices in an unethical way (e.g. increase price the longer you look at an offer), there is no discussion to be had about the behavior of the buyers. (Funny, so similar to the ad company / adblocking situation.)

I always start with an empty commit[1] for two reasons: 1. It's slightly harder to edit the first commit afterwards (say, to replace a working title with the actual project title before publishing, or to fix authorship or whatever). 2.

So maybe we should start randomizing MAC adresses whenever Wifi is turned on. (Would it be a privacy problem if MAC adresses were very short-lived? I really don't know.)
