There is also that I have different expectations for different types of work relationships. I don't want a manager pinging me 7 times a day with questions. But I am OK with a coworker messaging me 15 times about their progress on somet

I mean, this should just be the worldwide default. We should not be normalizing a culture of working outside of working hours.

It looks like this repo is is a rewrite of an earlier "scmpoo.exe" that roamed the internet in the mid-1990s. That was fun to set up on school computers to automatically launch at random times.

So we need a new flag for gcc that writes zeros to any block of allocated memory before malloc returns, not a new language.

How is C not memory safe? If I access memory I didn't allocate the OS shuts the program down. Is that not memory safety? (Unless you're running it on bare metal ...)

Why are C and C++ all of a sudden unsafe? Did I miss something? What is safe now? JavaScript? PyTorch?

OK, it's confusing, I had seen some other information that suggested app registration was necessary. It seems that it's only necessary if you want to track your journeys which makes sense.

Yeah that's a stupid system and I've seen it in many places. Being asked to go to <some random convenience store> to get the official public transit card, even the dude at the station couldn't sell me one. The vending m

Do it in a more dense city like Manila (4-6X NYC's density) and you're guaranteed to land the hat on someone .

It looks like it has more to do with the aerodynamics of the hat than the wind. It also hits a ledge on its way down in the video. It seems like both of these are tractable issues. A round hat that is spun with a significant initial angular

I believe Singapore's public transit does support tapping a credit card directly at the gates now, but there's an annoying step of having to register your card in advance on an app before it actually works. My guess is this might

I feel like 99% of people would not benefit from single use public transportation tickets. Even if you are a tourist, if you use public transportation once, there is a high likelihood you will use it multiple more times, in which case it ma

I have a Framework, because I much prefer Linux, and don't want to spend more than market prices on SSD and RAM. It's the best Linux laptop I have ever owned. However, I do have to admit the Macbook just has a better build quality

I just really wish Raspberry Pi would come out with a truly HQ camera with a full frame 35mm sensor, or at least an APS-C sensor. I'd pay $1000-1500 for it, just to have something as good as a full frame camera but programmable and hac

There could also be a reverse bounty paid as a salary bonus to the devs if there is no security bug found in N months. A "code quality bonus", if you will. Though only to encourage quality control. Intentional bug creation should

I don't think "being in the Play store" means something is trustable, it just means you trust Google Play Services and Google with all of your data, and by extension, the US government. Being located in the US, I am arguably

Honest question: Was the $2M figure advertised in advance? Where does one go about discovering bug bounties of this size? It seems like it might be worth the gamble of taking 3-6 months off work to discover a bug of that size.
