I feel the same hesitation around bodily autonomy, but there's a VERY important point: the decision impacts more than your own body. It's the same logic we use to outlaw certain substances like heroin or PCP--you have a right to d

Yes. Many devices will ask for a network or create a mesh network over wifi/bluetooth/zigby if one isn't presented to them.

I had similar degradation on T-Mobile, but it seems to have cleared up. I was assuming everyone cut over to their cell networks shortly after Xfinity cut out.

Anybody hear news about the source of this outage? I’ve been hearing unconfirmed rumors of some kind of security breach.

The small dependency thing is a sad artifact of the days when most JavaScript libraries were built to run on the browser. In that context, prior to the days of mature tools to do things like tree-shaking to remove unused code, the easiest w

Sadly security by blacklisting always turns into a game of whack-as-mole. If there’s an unavoidable need for an install script that may be a case to mature the facilities a package manager offers rather than requiring packages to run arbitr

I'd point out that one of the biggest advantages of Terraform isn't managing cloud infrastructure (though I certainly like it for this), but for providing a common language for integrating vendors and other 3rd parties into my own

Thanks for that link, I really do enjoy his writing. "Relatively tame" isn't something I expect to see with a health rating of 4, but I suppose it's an accurate statement when you're talking 4x3 ratings.

This is only true if the companies you're asking for data refuse to provide it _without_ a subpoena. Many companies (let's us AT&T as an example) will provide law enforcement whatever data they ask for without requiring a subp

Revoking the keys makes whatever existing artifacts and packages signed with old keys fail integrity checks. Revoking the published packages and rotating compromised passwords should certainly also be done, but neither of those stop package

Slightly different issue. In my experience, the problem tends to be from robodialers operating on behalf of scammers or fly-by-night marketing agencies. As the US phone system is currently operated, it's trivial for these kinds of acto

Still an improvement. Keys can be revoked and regenerated.

In the interest of making your argument stronger, it may be worth addressing that when folks discuss housing shortages, they mean " affordable housing shortages". It's generally good policy to argue towards the strongest and

I think there a variety of factors at play in the tech sector driving hiring trends: 1. There are, in fact, tech companies that still demand employees come into a physical office. There comes a tipping point in a laborer's market (tech

I've toyed with the idea of putting money into a trust and having the executors of the trust use the money to maintain stuff like this. It's more of an institutional solution than a technical one, but I'm personally more comf

What you describe is the primary motivation to the genesis of French cuisine: how do we take this crappy cut of meat or unpalatable vegetable we can get on the cheap and make it edible?

This really resonates with me. I've always had the strong opinion that a corporate culture of open, cooperative, non-judgemental dialog is critical to building strong teams. The OP's experiences mirror my own: I try to be ca

Fantastic to hear this--as the OP mentioned, having ADHD makes it hard to follow up on stuff like this. The original announcement mentioned you folks have a neuro-diverse team, which I applaud and respect. I hope you really take advantage o

You’re missing my point—it’s a bad look regardless of the economics. You can have a great business model, you can have a good product, but if you can’t operate without alienating the people you want to sell to you’re probably dead in the wa

The problem isn’t the cost, it’s the way folks with ADHD are being charged. The whole point here is to help folks who are having trouble remembering to do things. Regardless of the economics, the optics here make this seem like exploitati

While I don’t disagree that the responses may be overlong, I think it harms your argument to criticize the format of the response rather than the content. If we’re to have productive discourse, we must all act in good faith and look at oppo

Presumably China has also convicted it's forced labor of some crimes as well. Regardless of what the laws are, I believe that prison labor is a bad practice with big ethical issues—it incentives incarceration as a means to procure chea

Hi Jamie! I thought the article was pretty thoughtful and I'm sorry it's gotten such a mixed response in the comments here. It was interesting seeing your commentary on Red-Green trees and how they're used. I'm excited a
