   When I was 17, I pranked my high school's website by replacing homepage content with a rickroll video through some creative hacking. The school turned around and hit me with a felony charge due to it being computer related. So I can de

   I think that he means that there's no storytelling cruft that just fills paragraphs and wastes time. It's short, concise and rich in information.

    What's more interesting is how much energy there is in just that screen's surface area of sunlight. Enough to turn sand molten in under a second. Thinking of just how far away that is from the sun, and how much more surface area t

    I feel like a breakup with a long term girlfriend is bad enough, let alone a breakup with a wife and kids. I've learned through all my strife that you have to learn to love the toughness to get you through it. Learn to love the strengt

    I use them for everything except .io domains. Gandi is $20 cheaper. I'm still waiting for Namecheap to reduce their price.

    I hope the device is open and encourages hacking. But seeing that they're putting an app store on it, (I'm guessing for long term profit) they probably have little incentive to do so.

    I just had to cancel my card due to a large, unauthorized purchase at Walgreens states away. I don't know that it was from Linode, but it was the same card that I had when Linode was compromised.

    Don't forget that people upvote them. There are many people who find them interesting and don't think that they're spam, including me.
