I always assumed they tracked co-mingled sourcing internally, but don't have a reason to make it public. At least that way they could trace the people who were seriously poisoning the co-mingled well, in circumstances where they wanted

Of course not. But it's the restaurant you hate to go to now, because it just reminds you of how good it used to be.

Even most of these are software controlled. You can usually change what the button does with ddwrt or similar.

I've had similar ideas, but with IP/DMCA rights/enforcement being conditional on depositing keys and source code with the Library of Congress, to hold in a sort of public escrow. Maybe even require it for FCC certification, o

It's pretty much devolved to users instead of devices: 1) devices only I have write access to 2) devices others have access to 3) iot (which are basically users I've never met) At least I can segregate me running a port scan from

>to imply that an entire race cannot overcome what we would consider a "moral deficiency" It's a bit more subtle but in an important way: they say that no one can overcome it who posseses it. Which is why it's so impo

I tried to start implementing separate lans/vlans at home for trusted and untrusted devises. But quickly realized I don't really trust any of it, save my personal laptop and a few of the servers I run.

That's for deep water drinking wells. Baton Rouge and south Louisiana are going through that now, with salt water penetrating a fault line that was once considered a barrier. The industrial corridor along the Mississippi consume an unb

Cracks are actually required for reinforced concrete to work properly. The concretes got to give so the steal can take the tension, and you want big cracks to show up during before and during failure, specifically because it's a warnin

The images show a location that wasn't even part of the collapse. So no you shouldn't interpret that as "about to fail".

Miami is making the same mistake New Orleans made 100 years ago. They're trying to artificially lower their water table to improve drainage, but it creates a cycle of subsidence, which makes flooding worse, which makes them pump more,

You're absolutely correct. RC design is very complex, but very conservative. There should have been 'oh shit' levels of cracking and rebar exposed, and in specific places. That's not what the infamous "inspection&qu

Why do we seem to better tolerate preinstalled or system-update app installs vs pushed installs? I guess you might at least know what's getting installed by system updates ahead of time, but most don't pay attention to that and ar

The Atlantic, complaining about "sprawling" longform writing? Immediately after an especially pointless yet drawn-out intro. Is it supposed to be one of those jokes that either aren't funny or you don't get?

That's my point- there's no reason to wake up today and be shocked that TB used to kill a lot of people, including kids. If I found a plantation house with 1000's of bodies buried in the yard, and forensic evidence shows most
