Why did you get into the field? What did you focus on at first? I was 11, my dad used FORTRAN at work to build economic simulations, and walked me through some basic programming. This was during the ~5 years that I was taking amphetamine

In javascript you can't set your window to be borderless and transparent and be drawn on top of everything else so that you can intercept clicks or trick users into clicking on something.

ISP -> VPN -> Tor can be a good idea depending on your threat model, but if you're not completely sure that you need to do so, it's best to avoid it. ISP -> Tor -> VPN is generally extremely stupid, as tor is doing abs

You're thinking with the wrong threat model. The concern is not about people who really want to know what his real name is, it's people putting his real name into Google and getting references to Slatestarcodex on the first page o

You already have skill and hopefully passion in one discipline, use college as an opportunity to explore a different one, and get an edge up on your peers. Don't major in CS, major in something else that you care about for its own sake

People expect there to be no log for phonecalls, and that extends to video calls. Google might well keep a log for themselves, but if they sent it to participants, they would alienate many of them.

When I read /italic/ or \italic\, I end up mentally transforming the text so that the slashes are vertical lines. When you do that with forward slashes, you get text with a negative slope (the wrong way). Demonstration: https:&#x

I really dislike /italic/. Relative to the slashes, the letters look like they're skewed in the wrong direction. Surely it should be \italic\. If unifying underlines and italics doesn't suit you.

You know, many people reading this have a pre-existing condition, so even if this is a reasonable way to interpret the data, it's not much encouragement for them. Also, just because 99% of deaths come from people with pre-existing co

Sorry, I was unclear. By ctrl_r I meant the right ctrl key, pressed on its own with nothing else. Binding Ctrl+r might be possible. It's also been about a year since I last tried, so there may be a solution now.

Thanks for pointing me to Unison, I have yet to dig into the details, but its core idea is something I've been thinking about lately and it's fantastic to see that it exists!

Fentanyl is active in a range very similar to LSD, it's the biggest concern. 25i-NBOMe is a drug similar in effect to LSD, but with a somewhat worse track record for safety. It's not likely to harm you, and unless you're fair
