You can put the float into a money market fund. It is liquid and can earn maybe 1% interest. Which doesn't sound like a lot, but it is free money. And if you have millions of dollar in the reserves over a course of a year it can add up

> Stripe doesn't gain anything or do anything with this buffer. We don't earn interest. I find that hard to believe. Otherwise Stripe is leaving money on the table and I doubt their MBAs would allow that.

I will watch things in a "private window" if I don't want it affecting my recommendation or later go and remove it from my watch history. This seems to help me. Also I will mark videos as not interested. But yeah I notice I w

Anyone else unimpressed with Twitter's U2F/FIDO token support? They support a total of 1 (one) U2F token on an account :( The only other company I know that does that is AWS and one U2F token. Every other site I use allows multipl

Yes bitwarden_rs supports 2FA, including U2F keys. I setup my own instance in a Docker container on my Synology. I only have access to it while I am at home (or VPNed in) as I'm not willing to punch a hole in my firewall for external a

A good commit message can also help to explain why the two lines of code took so long.

Ah. I actually leave my Yubikeys plugged into my computers. I use the Yubikey Nano. I have a USB-C version in my laptop and a standard USB version in my desktop PC.

Since I'm seeing all these comments about people who were happy that Google does this as they lost/damaged their phone which had the only copy of their 2FA codes. I would recommend buying a couple U2F tokens which support NFC and&

You could also use a Yubikey to store up to 32 TOTP codes on it. One benefit is that you can set it up to require a touch to generate the code.

Actually the newest version does allow export. For years it was true you couldn't export. But now they allow you to export. Thankfully. Though I tend to use U2F. With Yubikeys and other U2F keys. I use my Yubikey to store a backup of t

I've been happily using Fedora for years. Just another option to consider.

Agreed. Though self-hosting is an option, not a requirement. For my case I installed Bitwarden-rs on my Synology box at home in a container. I realize most people don't want to do that, but for me it was relatively easy. I only allow a

I just set this up this weekend in a container at home, on my Synology box. Nice thing about Bitwarden-rs is you get a lot of the "premium" features for free with it. For example: Yubikey, U2F, and Duo support. https://

Well the Cloudkey Gen 2 Plus [1] can record up to 20 cameras. Their new Unifi Protect Network Video Recorder [2] is supposed to do 50. [1] https://store.ui.com/collections/unifi-protect/products/unif... [2]

The software for Unifi Video has never been open source from my knowledge. I'm not sure if any of Ubiquiti software is open source. You can download and install it on your own hardware. But it wasn't open source.

The software will be EOL on 1-Jan-2021, but you can keep running it if you want to. As I intend to as mine is kept inside my home network, running in a container, and not exposed the the world. They are killing of their cloud based service

Hmm. I just ran out of file descriptors on a little personal project of mine just a few days ago. I kept calling pty.openpty() and I forgot to close them. My program was calling it three times (stdout, stderr, stdin) every 10 seconds :( I e

Ah good memories. Once BASIC got rid of requiring line numbers and supporting function calls it really wasn't too bad of a language from what I remember. I started out with TRS-80 BASIC, then assembly language on the TRS-80, then using

I was able to get this going, but it took awhile as I use a non-standard working mode. All of the docs I have read assume that you are logged in locally on the system, but if you are not (like me) then things fall apart. I am running a Wind

Well I paid $0 in taxes on my parent's death. And when we sold it no income tax was paid. Our accountant checked everything and made sure it was done correctly. From the page it does say: If you sell the property for more than your bas

That is not true. The capital gains have not been taxed and won't be taxed on death. It is a giant tax free gift upon death. If your parent dies and they had bought a house for $100,00 and now it is worth $1,100,000. So a capital gain

Interesting to me is that not-taxing inheritances is sort of a giant tax break. If your parent dies and they had bought a house for $100,00 and now it is worth $1,100,000. So a capital gain of $1,000,000. If they had sold the house they wou
