I microwave my water for coffee and tea in a glass french press container which has had enough use that it doesn't let the water superheat... this is important to prevent aftertaste (superheated water burns the tea).

Since the article doesn't even attempt to answer the question, instead getting lost in a meandering, Randian path of complaint about cronyism and the government... let's give it a shot. 1) Millenials aren't idiots and don

While it is pretty freaky, I think the point of Shodan scanning IPV6 devices that use the default pool is to detect linux-based IoTs that use the default NTP settings, which is kind of the reason why Shodan exists. It is unlikely that Shoda

If you asked me 20 years ago when this article was written, and the practice less commonplace, I'd have been more optimistic and open minded about it. And I agree that contract disagreements between parties can be more easily settled t
