It's not distorted so much as it is relative to value. But that's not for tech, it's just for business in general. If you can make an extra $500k because you spend $250k, and there's not a better way to spend that money,

Not to mention that almost all civilian planes in the US are required to broadcast a bunch of details that include their coordinates and altitude on a public channel (ADS-B). It's the kind of automated collision avoidance input that yo

Maybe it's more obvious when named this way, but I don't think I've ever been under the impression that the DoD is focused on peaceful means of keeping the peace.

I'm assuming they meant the account takeover was likely to be found out right away. You change your password on a major site like that and you're going to get an email about it. Login from a new location also triggers these emails

I'm always torn when I see anything mentioning running an init system in a container. On one hand, I guess it's good that it's designed with that use case in mind. Mainly, though, I've just seen too many overly complicat

The other chart on that slide was actually to scale. My suspicion is that it was super rushed to the deadline for this presentation and they maybe didn't use excel or anything automatic for the charts, so they look better, and they mis

It's not just the limitations of satellite tech or quantity. There's also just the fundamental limit of RF in shared airspace. You run into bandwidth limits due to interference even without overcrowding low earth orbit with a sate

It's a pretty impersonal way to announce layoffs but I think they all tend to be impersonal. I do think the 6 months of pay says a lot more than the fact that they used a video.

As far as I can tell, from using the internal browser on one of my TVs, there is a certificate store issue. Either they nuked local CAs accidentally or they've always been doing some MITM shenanigans and had an expired certificate in t

500MB average seems like a gross exaggeration. I agree apps are oversize but I have maybe 2 native apps on mobile that are so large.

My two cents: Keycloak's UI is pretty self explanatory if you understand OIDC (oauth2 + jwt + specific JWT claims) and, if you have to use it (my condolences, though it's also just interesting to see how crazy specs can get), SAML

I could be remembering incorrectly, but wasn't this also a thing back in the Droid Bionic days? I remember being super thrilled at the idea of using my phone on a bigger external screen as another linux computer or TV screen.

I've definitely stepped on carpet tack multiple times before and stabbed my toes and heels. But the point being, if you're not going to tie your claims to adverse health outcomes then you're not making a slam dunk claim as th

Right. If this is a no-brainer, the author gives no compelling evidence to support it. Show me something tied to adverse health outcomes. I mean, you're significantly more likely to step on something that punctures your foot without sh

In an ideal world, maybe that's how it would work. In reality, that's not how it works or likely ever will work. So the comment you're replying to is a pragmatic approach to "how do we make the world we actually live in,

Don't forget that the profit also goes to the 0.01% because there's nothing to trickle down to.

I haven't done it for a while (I've mostly just used 127.*), but I found the best one to use for dev purposes was the IETF-reserved `.test` TLD [0]. The main benefit at the time I was messing with this (10ish years ago now) was th

The headlines I saw were irresponsible journalism, plain and simple. There ought to be some significant repercussions or at least apologies and lessons learned posts for those publications and/or authors for crying wolf.

If companies are implementing unfair policies like non-competes then the invisible hand of the free market will cause employees to leave those companies or never join them! I mean it's really not very likely that the 2-3 CEOs we curren

Absolutely not. Read the specs [0] there as well if you truly want to know. XML canonicalization is a special kind of hell that I've done once and wish to never do again. And the enveloped signatures of xmldsig are also pretty complica

If you trust the election results, and I generally do because I have no proof otherwise, then the American people voted for this. But it certainly looks like an authoritarian power transfer.

This is more of a fundamental issue with the way we rely on DNS to secure *gestures wildly* all the things. The fact that domains can expire and be registered by someone new allows the new owner to do almost anything the old owner could hav

I thought that was a statistic about PHP. Though WordPress is almost certainly a significant chunk of that. Some quick searching seems to indicate that the web is about 79% PHP, and that ~44% of websites are using WordPress.
