I imagine they meant it's a way to do code review for projects they currently host on Keybase.

My understanding (from a friend who was a cop, this was in NYC but it's probably similar elsewhere) is that what happens is: 1. Motorcycle makes a ton of noise because muffler is removed / modified 2. Cop pulls over motorcycle, gi

Sony has an Android app you can use to get live previews off the A7, tweak exposure parameters, and trigger images. Everything can go over either bluetooth or WiFi. I imagine that a little time with Wireshark would open an API up real quick

I think they're saying that most things that go over TCP are HTTP, which means usually those bits are set to 80 or 443. With SRV records we could be using more ports, and then presumably do port based routing instead of host based rout

This was not true in Python 2, and redefining True to False used to be a jokey way to break the interpreter in a bunch of fun ways.

It's a good solution for strncat for sure! I'd guess that the majority of strncpy calls look something like: char *x = calloc(n, 1); strncpy(x, y, n - 1); Which can be replaced with: char *x = strdup(y); Whic

The Scoot service in SF uses GenZe scooters and they're fantastic to ride. Granted, I don't own one because I just use Scoot. They're about $4.5k on the website.

A little different from what others are recommending, in that it wasn't made by a tech insider, but Werner Herzog's "Lo and Behold" is an excellent nonlinear and eclectic documentary about the internet

The WRT54 is dog slow by today's standards. My residential Comcast service is faster than it can handle; my max down almost doubled when I swapped my WRT54GL for an AC3200

Android has the ability to push updates to phones that haven't been set up yet; when you first turn on a new phone the first thing it does is ask for wifi so it can check for updates. Google has the ability to update the phone before l

More on the local end. Traditional denoising is edge finding + blur; you find the edges that you want to keep crisp and you blur on both sides of the edges. ML has been really good at somehow replicating and improving upon that result witho

This is why I like the Kaiser Permanente system, where you buy your insurance from the same company that provides your healthcare. It has other problems (notably that they are loath to send you somewhere else if they don't have the exp
