The ability to sell portions of your right to justice is both an important freedom and a check on the ability of those with power to trample on those without. It is interesting that so many people who claim to champion the rights of the pow

The fundamental problem with Malthusianism is that it is static thinking. It projects on the basis of no change in technology, as if the present moment continues eternally. This is why all statements to date on running out of X or Y at time

If you make third party web applications, Javascript or whatnot to include on someone else's page, then Charles or similar is a must-have when you have non-technical and semi-technical people helping with customer issues. Almost anyone

In a world that is increasingly data, the ability to process and react to that data becomes worth. Marking worth is just more data processing, a declaration of subjective value in the scheme of your choice. Nothing special. The nature of yo

Comparative advantage isn't abolished just because the advantage is large. Economic participation by a class of entities who have a lower capacity for production than every other class of entities is still useful to all involved. A gre

For multiple domains, you have to validate each one separately via the webroot method unless they are all getting served from the same webroot. If it is all the same webroot, then yes, add them all to the domains variable. If different webr

This example script assumes that the server has a running webserver, either Apache or Nginx. Since it doesn't use a package install for Certbot, this script should work on most Linux distributions. It installs Certbot, obtains the cert

Clustered timing of reviews is unfortunately not a great metric for determining whether or not they are legitimate. Many - probably most - companies send out emails to buyers asking them to review, no compensation provided. This is pretty e

I just updated my Ubuntu mail server recipe for Ubuntu 16.04 ( https://www.exratione.com/2016/05/a-mailserver-on-ubuntu-16-... ). It only took a day of work to find all the holes and fall into them. Everything core

Looks like picking the simpler option precisely because it was simpler was the sensible choice. I've had no issues with react-simple-router: it routes, it works with react, what else do you really need?

The simulation hypothesis is, sadly, perhaps the only self-consistent solution to the Fermi Paradox, one that doesn't require very unlikely propositions. https://www.exratione.com/2015/05/the-cosmological-nooc

No video, I'm afraid. It is responsive, but not as feature-rich or advanced an interface as Android or ioS, of course. My main complaints on that front are lack of some idioms and that it isn't as smart about what the intent of to

The real issue is not that we haven't been visited (for which read, we exist, because the matter of the solar system wasn't turned into computronium by some group billions of years ago), but that everything we see is a wilderness.

Most of the issues with Grunt and the like can be done away with by following good coding practices. i.e. keep your code outside the Grunt context and write unit tests for it. See the Thin Grunt Manifesto: https://www.exratione.c
