Not a very big sample size but I do find it interesting how the males lean towards more technical terms. A result of sexism in education, not biological differences, I'm sure...

It's a nonsense project with no utility. And it's not exactly rocket science that running a memorable phrase through a KDF is going to be more predictable than an actual CSPRNG. This is crypto/security 101. There's a goo

Yep, I spared the details regarding nausea but the contents of my stomach were definitely emptied once or twice. As far as I remember it wasn't anything special and the additional side effects and risk you describe make it just not wor

I wish there was something like PIHKAL for non-chemists. I had a fascination for chemistry as a young lad but Shulgin's books are impenetrable for me.

Seemed overrated to me. Maybe I got the dose wrong but the purity can be so inconsistent that everyone's going to have a different experience. I'd much rather take some classic LSD, you know what you're in for and it doesn&#x

I'm not a resident of the USA but it doesn't seem like it would be very effective. Members of Congress only seem to care about filling their own pockets via lobbying and insider trading. Improving the country seems to be an aftert

I can also vouch for Feedly. I closed my Google account years ago and needed something to track my YouTube subscriptions. I use it for blog RSS feeds too. It's one of the few things I use that works so well that I don't really thi

Exactly. I don't get the hate. We are so privileged in the software industry to have people on our backs all the time offering us work that it makes me kind of sick when people take it for granted. Sure, some recruiters will waste your

Egress fees are cheap, even on Amazon. Cloudflare R2 is coming and there it will be completely free. Not to mention that everything's going to be safe and sound if your home burns down. Pretty sure S3 supports an equivalent for Google

I'm skeptical of homelabs. There's people buying old rack mount servers on Ebay thinking they're getting a great deal when really they're getting a 10 year old machine that will obliterate their ears and provide more hea

I've seen that behaviour for years. Even with quotes which used to show exact verbatim matches only, you'll still get pages of garbage results.

The Docker/virtualisation stuff on macOS really needs fixing up. The x86 to ARM transition has made things worse but it was pitiful even before. Virtualization.framework doesn't seem to live up to the hype. Docker has an experimen

I don't have anything of substance to add but I can definitely echo your experience. I'm still in love with the M1 chips but it is definitely not a seamless transition if you work with Docker a lot. I've had containers behave

Where is the f'ing legislation forcing these companies to provide software updates for a number of years? The e-waste this kind of abandonment creates is unimaginable. I'm so frustrated that my government continues to do jack shit

Come on. Most of the people in first world countries were forced to stay at home and depend on the services that these "elites" provided. How exactly is it unfair that they make more profit from wider reach? A large portion of Ame

In the past they've used machine learning to do a kind of blurring I can't remember the name of to make scenes in VR look more realistic. They are building a lot of ML models. I think the future of VR is almost intertwined with ma

Don't worry about it, it's the HN effect. I really recommend using a PaaS like Netlify (I'm not sponsored or affiliated). It will take a weight off your shoulders the next time you get a surge.

Buying cryptocurrency in the UK is a pain because of the regulations. A lot of exchanges simply won't deal with UK customers. The only way I've been able to acquire cryptocurrency is by mining it. I mined ETH back in 2017 and conv

I'd argue there's no right or wrong at all when it comes to this. There's only bigger and smaller, stronger and weaker, early and late. We draw an arbitrary line somewhere and say that people on one side cannot trade on infor

So you just give intentionally demotivating advice? It doesn't take years to learn software development and you don't need to scan hundreds of pages of documentation. If we're talking about it as a profession, sure maybe, but

PayPal and Ebay are like toxic waste. I've had both accounts frozen. Most recently my Ebay account for a reason they will not explain and will not allow me to appeal.

The 4.5y of updates comes as part of Android AOSP. GrapheneOS supports handsets for as long as AOSP does. I hope this company is contributing to the project or donating a slice of the profit to Daniel Micay otherwise that's an asshole
