It's being misconstrued by the MSM to stop the left and right from uniting in their common goal of reforming tyrannical governments.

You could just use WebRTC with a selective forwarding unit.

This sounds like how DARPA contracts work. Yea, we're in 10 different companies, but we're all collaborating and sharing deliverables. I agree that the bidding system on normal defense contracts could benefit greatly, but usually

It would be really cool for people to be able to make money in those markets. It's really lame right now to face competing with free offerings. We're in a post chat client scarcity world.

The intro to deep learning using tensorflow is great. It made a lot more stuff click for me than fast.ai.

I went and looked, unfortunately op's database product is not publicly available. It is easy to claim you are secure when no one sees the code. I'd happily do a deep dive on it for $10k per memory violation if they are so certain.

I had coworkers at Google who lived without AC. Absolutely mind blowing to me. Older buildings just don't have it, and it's only really bad for a cumulative couple weeks in CA.

In terms of getting work, I would say there are fewer security research jobs available in the Bay Area than scattered around the beltway. My last search, there were a ton of jobs asking how to authenticate servers to each other when what I

If by tech expertise you mean knowledge of cloud and large scale web applications, then yes. For security though, and I'm sure this is true for other industries, the Bay Area has very little on the defense industry in Maryland.

I used to think that, then I realized I have also thrown change on the ground rather than carry it. If the article sucks that just hurts my chances of purchasing again from that author or publication.

Yea, this is so frustrating. ACH fees are sub cent. Have people ACH money (buy credits) to the provider. Then payments are simply updating a balance. Pay out when a user makes a certain amount. The legality makes it difficult but with a few

I am incredibly excited about micropaymemts from a consumer perspective. I would pay 5 cents for every article I read. I won't pay a $5 subscription.

Syncing my YT account now. I think I bounced from all the federated Peertube instances due to their upload limits. Started my account on YouPorn, they have absolutely great paid video features. No descriptions though and no audience there.

The evils of ads and the brokenness of pay walls are a lot more nuanced than that. Ads have created an ecosystem where no one is willing to pay for media because we have gotten it free in exchange for our privacy. This hurts you, small publ

That is an odd example. You are comparing the search for js with the search of js vscode. Everyday I run into a Google hell. Tonight I was trying to find info on how Github uses let's encrypt for https on custom domains. The only thing

I would be happy to. I looked at peertube but didn't pull the trigger and instead went to YouTube. I think the upload limits held me back. I went through a lot of sites and some would not have video descriptions, some would have no mon

I've long believed that bitcoin started as a CIA black budget program. I know it's out there, but they are one of the few organizations with the development skills and opsec skills to put out an anonymous application. The motivati

This sounds really cool. The other thing I would like is more sound effects on real life goals. I play Overwatch, and I always say I wish the stuff I want to be doing would make that sweet headshot ding. Patch in a bell into AFL for everyti

Could you save some of this data and show a table of what has been checked? Guess I could just check caniuse.

There are capabilities that can be misused, but I generally trust the companies with those capabilities to not misuse them. Maybe Lenovo will include a sketchy driver, but I trust Lenovo to not use that driver to drop ransomware on my machi

I'm in the security industry and bought a ThinkPad (X1 Carbon) 6 months ago. It has the form factor and specs that I want. What is the threat model? They will not be using the rootkit for hiding useland malware. Are they extracting my

The other more Daoist end of this spectrum is that your mind and body are you. Through the power of will you control both of these. As a long time meditator the "I am not my body, I am not my mind" mantra has always bothered me. I

I agree with this, it's much better to collaborate or collude when possible. The one exception is that corporations are absolutely my enemy.

This is exactly what my partner and I did. I'm remote and she is COVID-19 remote, so we're sheltering in place in a city we wanted to see. A furnished unit is 1k cheaper than our Bay Area rent was. The weather is great and we get

I had an absolutely awful experience with the fast.ai "in person" course. I sat through two lessons before realizing we were going to be seeing the rough cut of the free version (e.g. them doing their intros 3x) and that there wer

That was alleged in court but no evidence has been provided publicly. I do not see the relevance here though, FB being gross doesn't make NSO any less gross.

Thanks! I wanted to share this with my dad and with the difficulty I had finding the "show thread" button on the Twitter mobile site I knew he would only see the first tweet then bounce.

I do flexible part time hours. As in, I'm flexible. I'm on Slack if people need me. I work when there are hours for me. I get to pay rent, take a trip whenever I want, work on side projects, and work on interesting work. I agree c

I really like the idea of Paperspace and I've tried to get going a few times on the free plan but I hate notebooks. I didn't fully understand the server + gpu offerings, which is what I want. I would love it if I could just get an
