That's still a number of days a year dedicated entirely to social media. Sure, it could be worse, but it's still (in my opinion) a significant amount of time over a year, or over your life. The thing is I feel like maybe you get m

I do agree with what you've said, but I don't agree with the conclusion, so I want to provide a counterpoint and I hope I don't come across as unconstructive in doing so. Just because doctors and nurses have a desire to help,

The legal definition of rape is one that is restricted by the law, but the moral definition is not. If I say a biscuit is a cake and legally it is made so, does that mean it is actually a cake? I'm sure North Korea or China say some pe

My cat acts a bit strange and erratic in my kitchen, the strangest of which is insisting (via clawing the door and meowing) that I open up a pantry door where it will look inside and then leave, only to continue the behaviour soon after. I&

I'm no expert but I don't believe those diving jets are going to help in such an environment because A) takes up space of which they most likely don't have and B) it kicks up a lot of silt and dirt, making visibility conditio

Aboriginals passed down their history and culture orally, so you can't really expect them to provide evidence other than their retelling. I don't think anyone is saying that the Dreamtime stories are 100% true, but it was probably

The amount of people contracting diseases from bites can increase, but it doesn't actually mean you're more likely to contract diseases from bites. For instance here in Australia there has been a rise of shark attacks recently. Th

I really want to love Krita, and I sort of do. The only thing preventing me from doing so is the absurd amount of crashes on my macOS machine. Is this just a Mac problem? Has this been addressed in this update? Am I doing something wrong?

Primary radar[1] is only mostly used in larger airports or military installations. Secondary radar like ADS-B[2] has become really popular and requires the transponder on the plane to be on and working. If you switch that off, for a lot of

I've seen far more game engines implement Lua as their scripting language compared to python, so I would hardly say it's 'lost' against python, at least for video games.

Interesting point! I admit that spending a lot of time worrying about equipment with little or no direct effect on the work or how you produce it is over the top — but worrying about equipment makes a lot of sense for any creator and especi

Kubernetes can have automatic reverse proxying and let's encrypt via an Ingress controller. I don't doubt Dokku has some nice plugins that Kubernetes doesn't though, especially for developers.

Depends on whom you're trying to hide from, no? Friends and family might have a hard time tracking your discrete secondary identities, but your ISP or facebook might see it very transparently.
