If you haven't already, I highly suggest checking out the rest of Ben Eater's videos. He's an absolutely excellent teacher, and his series on building an 8-bit computer from basic logic gates is a super interesting watch that

I come across these very often. I find these "businesses" to be adding very little value. From a customer point of view, I have no issue shafting those 4-hour-workweek-types.

And I care about violating their ToS why? This is a service I'm going to use once - once I have the data from them, I no longer care about doing business with them. What's the incentive for me to care about respecting their ToS?

Is it really that easy? I live on the east coast. My family lives within 30 minutes of me. My closest friends live within 30 minutes. Moving would require leaving that behind. That's not (emotionally) easy for myself nor my family.

Exactly this! The solving algorithm is no big deal at this point. Experienced cubers can solve them in under 10 seconds. There are machines that can solve them in < 1s. [1] Again, the innovation there is the accuracy and precision of the

Because all of the containers may not be of the same operating system? Networking on containers is also a bit different. There are also reasons for having some more isolation between guest OSes. On my ESXi box at home I have: * A VM that ho

Isn't that a bit of a catch-22 though? It's not near any jobs because... there's no one out there. Why would you start a business there?

Maybe I'm missing something - but as a US citizen, with a US company, how can EU laws be enforced against me? What's the legal channel here? Do they plan on arresting me if I decide to vacation to an EU country? Will the US gov&#x

This really tempts me to go back to Linux as my "daily driver". My main issue is working from home, and connecting to my work's VPN. We use Pulse Secure, and it does a host scan that only works on Windows and Mac OS X. Has an

These aren't non-technical users - a lot of these are long-time UNIX/Linux sysadmins. It's important to note that, especially in large environments, has different skill levels. I know a guy that can go deep into analyzing a k

I don't have a anything to cite either, other than personal anecdotes. This has happened many times to folks in my workplace. They come across the PuTTY download page and think that it's a shady looking site, and then continue loo

I've been seeing this the past week on a lot of forums that I still frequent. There's one particular car forum where I've been following a guy for the past three years doing a project car build. 80+ pages on the thread, with

There are risks other than just not being able to build it. If I have an app with a codebase in a language that very few people know, that's a risk. What if my main developer leaves and I need to find someone else to continue working o

Any clue if this will be able to also play retail games? Given Nintendo's track record of keeping supply up with demand, some of us may consider just paying extra for the dev kit...

I'm assuming your Amazon Go account is tied to a credit card. In which case, it's not Amazon's problem. They got their money - you now owe your credit card company.

Do you have access to the source? Yes? It's open source. Open Source need not be free as in beer, nor as in freedom.

I've gotten used to seeing walls of warnings/messages when compiling things from source. It's almost a case of boy-who-cried-wolf at this point. You get lots of warnings, but it works! And they're not always due to the p

Assuming everything went as planned, no problem. But to play devil's advocate... The risk with these things is always the "what if?". What if during that patch it bricked my device due to some fluke? What if I had a special c
