Slow news day? Not like this is the first heat wave to ever hit more than a couple states. Drink lots of water, move slow, go to work early and leave late (its cooler and less people to get edgy with!)

Disagree that it is the FBIs job to "protect" domestic companies from possible foreign corporate and/or govt espionage. Should be up to the company to protect itself. If and when it believes a crime has been committed, fi

Early in life, imho much of fashion is just necessary for attracting a desirable mate, much like plummage on a bird. Excess can be excused. Once past that stage, fashion seems to fall into two categories - 1) the selfish need/desire to

There are two components here. The obvious one is the hurt ego which can lead to the sentiments you mention. The less obvious is understanding that you can only control your own destiny. On the second, suggest trying to figure out what sk

Before today I did not know who Paul Graham was, what he had done or the lispy association to HN. Then again, I'm a few thousand miles from the Bay area and not much of one for keeping track of personalities in any field. Though I am o

Movie -> tv adaptation -> musical -> movie remake depending the subject, there may also be a cartoon tv series as well.

Not Pi, but related - I gave up on using a 64GB Kingston SDXC in a Lexar reader to play MP3s in my truck. After just a few days it would develop corruption at the end of songs and by a few weeks it was just too annoying to continue using.

I understand how DOH can help prevent DNS spoofing, but I really don't understand the privacy claims. Are not outbound connections, http or https, known by the ISP? Or is the assumption that the world is all behind a proxy like cloud

FreeBSD user too, I'd like to know that as well. Not going to lay blame on RedHat for doing what is in their own best interest, but do find it troubling that the *nix world has had a major piece of software made redundant on the decisi

I am almost at the point of dropping YouTubeTV. When it started it was a fair price ($35), had a lot of sports, a little news and a handful of channels that at least I never, or rarely would watch. Now that the price is up to $50 and the

I have strong feelings about spoofing - that it should not, in almost every case, be illegal. While it is true that the spoofer may eventually cancel their orders the fact remains: their orders were dealable by any other party for a set pe

Just watched the trailer and another video. Its good, don't get me wrong, but I was left wanting/expecting a bit better. Perhaps it is just my unrealistic expectations and MS are limited by Xbox hardware vs a high end desktop wi

Sorry, no. Not only do doctors and surgeons vary dramatically in competency, specialty groups within a facility can vary a lot. Further - even if we take it to the seemingling simple, like where to get an MRI - how are you able to ascertai

Not sure what his point of including IB in there was? They are very up front about pretty much everything. Not sure you can find better than benchmark-50bp on cash balances and for accounts with larger balances they have a program in plac

Please do not assume people are not running current release just because they are lazy and have not upgraded. The user experience was degraded at FF57 for many individuals who need extensions that will not work with ff>56 or that develop

Really unhappy with Mozilla. Does this effect all versions of Firefox? Quantum only? The bug report itself is not viewable publicly either.

Algol 68 and Fortran both had . In fact, COBOL 60 even supported so not sure why anyone would not expect it as builtin for C.

I believe a lot of this grade inflation can be attributed to the social engineering goal of getting more women in college/university (but not the women per se). As one example, my school was extremely rigorous and a difficult grader, m

Nobody really was/is freaking out over broad equity active mutual funds that hold assets with a very high correlation to the index. ETFs offer intraday arbitrage opportunities during market panics (up or down), unlike mutual funds.

I don't think I or anyone else need to justify why they still use the 56 ESR instead of pale moon nor does that have anything to do with the question of whether there will be a fix for this version from Mozilla. Clearly a few feathers

Just because a cert expires is not a valid reason to disable functionality with no override available to the user. You may already know, you can override when visiting a website with an expired cert (once or forever). Yet nobody at Moz s
