Their email referenced AS3150 ... Here is what the (clearly frustrated) RamNode support person had to say last time I enquired: AS3150 is NTT, a large backbone provider: https://bgp.he.net /AS3150 RamNode runs AS3842 a

I got my current job via Hired - basically just type up my profile and wait for someone to reach out. It was a pretty smooth and quick process but that was about a year ago - I heard rumours they ran out of money and turned into a Linkedin

I have a 100 trillion Zimbabwean dollar note, which apparently would buy 2 eggs at the time of issue. It’s actually increased 10x in value since I bought it on ebay though. :)

What is special is the possibility of growth - what a cat can be is very limited compared to what a human can be. Your reference to the Matrix is flawed in that you assume the "real" world is somehow not "fabricated", bu

Striving to become something more is exactly what makes humans special. It is ironic and sad that in the article it is presented as a disadvantage. This is an eloquent elaboration on the subject: https://m.youtube.com/watch?

I have done no tweaking at all - never used i3 before but it has everything I need. It also has the Gnome config tools available which is nice to have in one place for changing things like volume and external display settings (fine to do it

I used https://github.com/ForbesLindesay/typescript-json-validator for a service I built recently. It parses TS types and turns them into a validator function - seems to work very well so far. There’s a conversion of t

That’s the theory, in practice “no schema” in my recent painful experience translates to “move the schema into the apps” which really sucks when you have a bunch of interdependent services owned by different teams. And you still need to do

Yes to the first, no to the second. Lukashenko is generally derided for “sitting on two chairs” playing Europe against Russia (while acknowledging his impressive ability to do so for so many years). He also carried the country through the p

I don’t know - are they submitting counter-claims? All I know is it worked for me and my channel although I was never at the point of having more than one strike.
