Many people wonder/suspect Trump is on the Chinese payroll.

It sounds like many of these are going to have long lasting effects. That person that inherits from you will wonder why you thought it was so expensive. Good job :)

From my experience, anti-Trump Americans are still embraced and appreciated by Europeans. That doesn’t mean they can trust the US gov’t and probably won’t be able to again for a few decades.

I had assumed it was much higher. How many pounds of copper could be in the wiring of a street lamp? 5 pounds?

At this point could they do worse?

Doesn’t that mean the budget at the county level will have to increase to cover all the new maintenance, and thus taxes raised? I’d rather have some say in what my money goes towards in the HOA than have taxes raised to maintain neighborho

Have you really done this? I’d be interested in how you set that up.

So if a developer owns the code he wrote, and gets paid for it’s use over time, does he also get paid while writing the code? And how do you determine how much to pay for said code? By line count, but then that goes against some chunk of

That’s right. So a private server hosted on something other than port 80 (like port 81 in my case) is where you’re out of luck :(

How long can the message be? Or put another way, how much text can a QR code hold?

The last time I looked, if you ran your HTTPS service on anything other than port 443 LetsEncrypt was not for you. Maybe that’s built into ACME?

Oooh, I like that one! Thanks for sharing it.

Slightly off topic but related: one of the biggest epiphanies of my life was when I (20-something techie) realized tech is useless if it’s not used. In other words, tech only exists to help people. People, and their problems, are what mat

Yeah, it breaks my heart because I love my 2012 Passat, but no way will I buy a car with a subscription like this, or for heated seats. Idiots.

MFC all the way!

It sounds good, unless granny needs to visit Google or Microsoft to get a new password after losing her phone. Then what??

MFC support is still in the latest Visual Studio, and it looks like ATL as well.

Except that you waste CPU cycles preparing the log string and calling the log function only to have it all thrown away.

You’ll need to watch the video of the turtle. It was actively chasing a cat around, so it definitely knew what it was doing.

How concerned are you about Google’s AI summaries keeping people from going to your site as a lot of publishers are now seeing? Or maybe it does affect product sites as much?

I agree with a lot, but maybe not his specific case. I have a Windows software product. If someone said they wanted it for the Mac, I’d say no without a second thought. Sure, he THINKS he’s going to fund it with his sales, but that is ac

In my experience most homes/apartments in Europe are stone/cement/brick and many were built before central heating/cooling was a thing. US homes being much newer, and built from wood, means getting air ducts in isn’t su

So basically your system only works for you, because if all those people you might call did the same thing, the chances of you both checking your phones and trying to call at the same time are very low.

Pure guess on my part, but I suspect today’s North Korean population might wish we’d gotten the north too.

What wars do religious groups advocate for these days (outside of the Middle East)?

I’ve never heard of this particular overdose. In the US it’s completely unmonitored and I’ve never heard of an overdose. I’m genuinely surprised.

I don’t think the way things are today is good or right. Just wonder what the process would look like to “burn it to the ground” and start over. In other words, how do we realistically get to a better place that doesn’t involve electing b

Just curious if Linux includes drivers for 20 year old hardware and if there is some guarantee somewhere that old drivers will be available forever.

I wonder if we could ever compute which exact atom in nuclear fission will split at a very specific time. If that is impossible, then our math and understanding of physics is so far short of what is needed that I don’t feel comfortable wit
