Heck, some states list the address of the owner. One of her friends registered an llc with herself as the owner, and one of her followers looked her llc up and found her real name and address via the state llc registration web site. He the

A company owned by an instagram influencer, youtube celebrity, only fans star, etc to sell their merch could easily lead to doxing the influencer. People in those industries take advantage of loopholes to hide LLC ownership specifically t

Agreed. But it can't tell if I'm jet-lagged and I wake up 3 hours into my sleep at 2:30 am and lay there still, yet unable to get back to sleep. That is sometimes an 80 sleep score night, when really it should be a 40.

I love Garmin watches for many reasons, but their sleep tracking is horrible. Even my ancient MS Band did a better job than my Garmin Fenix 6

Or cmake, or any other modern build system aside from autotools. Heck, even just a Makefile and code with a few ifdefs is enough for fairly simple code. A lot of the complexity of autoconf / libtool is totally unneeded. I was very gl

Is the virtualization framework available on iOS/iPad? That would make the iPad into a killer dev platform if so.

Industry is more than willing to look past a lack of a degree given a good track record. Two of the smartest people I know didn't have undergrad degrees. One started as a lineman for AT&T, and learned programming by tending a comp

What's really fun is when you use a custom time protocol over TLS, but the host's clock is so far gone that the TLS cert is not valid. D'oh!

The problem in my neighborhood (literally right across the 101 from the Google MTV campus) was that PG&E never bothered to bury the lines, and the overhead lines were poorly maintained and overgrown by trees. So whenever there was wind

Beyond cost, what is stopping somebody from going off grid, and relying entirely on their own solar + battery system? Is there some law that makes this illegal? If not, it seems like this would cause a lot of upper income folks to just di

‘The real gauge of friendship is how clean your house needs to be before they can come over.’ Back when we were "just" best friends, I'd get offended that my fiance would clean her apartment when casual acquaintances would

I'm so old I remember the days before the web, when there were only mailing lists, USENET and gopher.

It was a lot better than the alternatives at the time, which were CVS and SCCS.. :)

We'd all be happy perforce users :) (For a long time, before git and subversion, even though the official freebsd repo was in CVS, a lot of development happened in perforce)

Kirk McKusick gives a great ~45min talk called the history of BSD at conferences. There are essentially 3 versions (one about the lawsuit, one about the TCP wars with BBN, and one about the early history), and he asks the audience to vote

I tend to think its similar what happened in the 70s, when gasoline got expensive. The US manufacturers were slow to react, and made a few terrible "compliance" cars (Chevy Chevette, Ford Pinto), but continued to try to milk what

I was wondering if Google was just melting down under a tidal wave of password reset emails from FB/IG.. My gmail seems to be working fine, both personal and work.

Get an AppleTV. Its responsive, and doesn't shove ads in your face. The downside is a lack of sideloading. I keep a firestick around for what I need to sideload, and cringe my way through the onslaught of ads to get into whatever ap

It would be less aggravating to consumers if they framed it as off-peak discounts, rather than letting it be compared to surge pricing. Eg, they'd have a list price as their max price, and they could vary the discount throughout the

Have there been studies showing the long term effects of anti-TNF drugs? I'm specifically worried about the tumors that might escape being nipped in the bud if tumor necrosis factor is limited. I've always been concerned about t

If you scroll down to the Stony Brook results, they compare it to more modern CPUs. I've had access to one of these (interested in it for its massive amounts of IO bandwidth for the power budget), and its stunningly fast. And yes, it

I'm not the submitter, but there is a length limit on post titles. I've run into this before with articles whose titles exceed that limit, and I've had to "edit" the titles to fit. I imagine the submitter had the

So now we have cable again. One of the huge benefits of moving from cable to truly a-la-carte streaming services is that you were no longer forced into a cable "bundle" that included many channels you didn't want (eg, ESPN) &

I just checked, and I don't use any lists, except for an allow list I just started with captive portal domains. Eg .aainflight.com, .captive.apple.com, etc

I agree that we need a "quick fix" before things get too far out of control. I'm really concerned about things like the Gulf Stream weakening and the resulting rapid climate change. It turns out that we've been accidenta

I love NextDNS. The one (fairly huge) issue that I have is that it cannot handle captive portals when its enabled on my iPhone. So if I'm joining the wifi on a plane, etc, I need to remember to turn it off. This means that I cannot r

I met my ex-wife because she was stuck in vi (and it wasn't her fault). I was the new sysadmin for her academic dept (in 1993), and she was a new grad student. We had DECstations with keyboards where there was no ESC key, and ESC wa

Yes, but what is that? I'm a kernel developer, and not a web developer, so I don't know the web ecosystem well. I just googled and wikipedia claims its used on 0.9% of websites, and may not be a representative sample.
