I looked at that project and found it very cool. Then I was confused, e.g. at 2:29 (and in some places before) the projection against the car doesn't look right. Is it fake? Is it not projected to the ground and I'm misunderstanding the pro

There are two things at work: Paleo diet works (not much disputed here) and Paleo diet works because it's like what we ate 10k years ago and we haven't adopted to our "new food" yet (a lot of people dispute that).

After some years of living with Lift: Liftweb is awful. Don't use it. There is not enough documentation (by a large margin, even with the books, one example being the dozens of hooks you could hook into if they were documented), it's too co

From my experience with DNS for a large site over the last years, a lot of ISPs do not respect your TTL and have their own TTL (often 24h).

I've run a mail server for 5 years for a NGO. Running your own mail server is not as easy as running your own LAMP stack. The is SPAM, IMAP, bounces, ... and many more issues with running your own system. My Postfix is only redirecting to g

~$20,000 sounds like a lot of money, they would need at least $100M a year in revenue to justify this number. This will be a major challenge if they want to grow profitable after the $15M VC money runs out. I'd assume they'd get the same fo
