(not a pilot) I'd think causing the autopilot to believe it is substantially off-course would induce a sharp bank to correct course. That bank at low altitude can lead to a wing strike. If not, still seems plausible to deviate enough t

Yeah, maybe prototype with tiny VMs first? Can you make several things share one VM initially? If you're not sufficiently confident in the idea to secure investment, it might be smart to build a smaller/leaner proof-of-concept.

At scale, distinguishing a squatter's markov-generated WordPress landing page from a genuine pre-product startup in stealth mode sounds like a Hard Problem. On the other hand someone with 10,000 domains and zero business plans is obvio

For an unregistered .com. Most desirable .com's have been squatted, and the squatters want five to six digits for the domain. The business model deserves a fiery death, yet it thrives.

Good idea for a company. Tough if you're a FOSS project and the domain costs $xx,xxx (almost any desireable dot-com does).

But how will Google show you ads based on those pictures? Major oversight on your part.

Same here. Sadly, I don't know of any static analysis tools that can detect inter-compatibility of different versions of WordPress plugins/themes/core. That's one aspect of WordPress maintenance that can get real hairy.

The hard part isn’t updating. It’s checking what got broken by the update, and fixing that. Then finding out one of the plugins is no longer supported, researching alternatives, and rebuilding half the site to use a new thing.

And create a protocol for the socket/switch to tell the bulb what color & brightness to glow?

One option is to use per-device WiFi credentials (i.e. RADIUS auth). You still need to invalidate the credentials when you throw away a bulb, but there are advantages: 1. Unlike "wipe the bulb before discarding", you don't ha

by antsar 8y ago
How about using RADIUS auth with unique credentials for each device? You still have to revoke old credentials, but this is much more reasonable than rotating the shared key on every device every time you throw away a bulb.

Certification sounds good until a major "certified" site goes rogue (or gets hacked) and hosts malware. Then everyone who trusted the "adblock except certified sites" premise gets burned, and reverts to regular adblock.

Maybe. I'm using Firefox Developer Edition 65.0b12 (64-bit) on Debian.

But that's not what Firefox does! Ctrl-P: quick print File -> Print: Same quick print Hamburger -> Print: Print with preview!

by antsar 8y ago
Wtf! It never crossed my mind that that "Print" might be different from the "Print" in the File menu, or the "Print" triggered by "Ctrl-P". Why?!

Teachers already seem overworked. Wouldn’t they just invent a new magic number, maybe “1”?

Ok, so use ‘whois mydomain.tld’ to check availability, then google “.tld price” or “otherdomain.tld price” to check the cost without identifying your domain.

Quite a few variables are used to track you, many of which do not change between different browsers. Try this: https://panopticlick.eff.org/ Specifically, check out the "fingerprinting" details.

I’ve used a 5-port ethernet switch (even lower power than a router) with very substantial coil whine. Like, “can’t tolerate it without headphones” substantial.
