That's a tricky distinction between empower a victim and blaming a victim. If I teach you to call the police if someone breaks into your house, that's not the say as blaming you for someone breaking into your house. She is talking

I use a similar method to ship app.embed.ly (emberapp on top of django). You can package whatever you want in a deb. The virtualenv is just a part of it. Config files are managed with configuration management system (chef in our case). Our

We migrated off of localshop and onto devpi. Devpi is a much better product and much more actively maintained. localshop was nothing but headaches and constantly breaking.

We do something similar at embedly, except instead of dh-virtualenv we have our own homegrown solution. I wish I new about dh-virtualenv before we created it. Basically, what it comes down to a build script that builds a deb with the virtua

I was under the impression that they were planting files on the user's computer to incriminate them. I don't really understand where this code is getting it's payload from though.

RAM is more expensive than disk space. Most small websites want to save money, so paying extra to keep it all in RAM is probably out of the question.

You must embrace reckless abandon. The idea of memories being deposited into a new brain simulation sounds pretty out there. There are plenty of remote possibilities that you could never disprove in life. Most people don't think about

Nice. I made jipe[0] a while back to handle common troubleshooting tasks with streams of json objects. I still use it quite a bit. I didn't see anything about streaming in the jq docs. [0] https://github.com/dokipen

Yes, but when this article talks about the growing number of contract workers, that growing number is people doing regular jobs and being labelled contractors. I'm working right now, but feel free to google about this growing problem o

Turning ordinary employees in to independent contractors is a disturbing trend that is eliminating traditional workers rights. Although some new companies have legitimate reasons for hiring contractors, for most it's not part of some n

Bad example. Stupid password requirements are great because it makes it more difficult for users to use the same password on every site.

It would be nice to need one less things(wallet), but the truth is, you still have to carry your wallet. Most places still don't accept NFC payment and even if they did, phones die. I'm not really interested in a wallet that can r

It's not about leaving your mark, it's about posturing. I used to work in a kitchen. At the end of the night the manager would do a walk through and always find something not to their liking that needed to be finished before you w

I keep reading The Idiot and Walden. The nice thing is that after you read a book a few times, you can just open to any page and start reading. Walden is especially good for random selection.

Who was making a living recording and selling albums before the internet? As far as I know, touring was always much more lucrative than recording. Labels always made much more money than artists and the artists were ok with that because the

The biggest lie told today is that we have less wealth in the world and we can't afford things like social security and welfare. There is more wealth now than there has ever been. Modern productivity is insanely high.

It's more like a donation box that automatically takes money out of your pocket unless you are vigilant, with most patrons not noticing that it took their money. The analogy sort of fails because it's not a zero sum gain. You coul

The benefits of this model include less attack surface area and much leaner code resulting in less bugs. It doesn't fit every project, but the "configuration" code for this WM would likely be larger than the WM itself.

A clever piece of marketing. The hip trend is away from IPAs and towards Belgians, specifically Quads. In this article I learned that Jim Koch, founder of Sam Adams is sick of IPAs and wants a good Belgian(he's hip kids!). Sure enough,
