Much easier to just pay for the additional storage or G Suite and regularly backup Gmail using offlineimap or Takeout. If you like running the local mail server for fun that’s cool but it’s pretty easy to secure your data from loss while st

The other person responding to you is a bit harsh, but I’d point out instead that it’s quite hard for an American company to hire someone who is not a US citizen. I had a coworker myself who was a great programmer and member of the team, we

You can set up billing alerts with AWS. I’d definitely recommend anyone using AWS set those up to avoid a surprise bill like you got. Considering they did have the hardware allocated to you it doesn’t really seem that unfair to me that you

Citizenship is also based on ancestry in the USA (natural born citizen). Since there are African Americans and people with very little “indian blood” on the citizenship rolls for some tribes, that’s the argument it’s not a race based classi

The IRS doesn’t have all the relevant information though. A lot of deductions and credits are based on events or transactions that aren’t reported to the IRS. State and local tax deduction, charity deduction, medical expense deduction, and

Parents can’t hover over their kids 24/7. Moreover, I’d question whether having your time micromanaged in such a way by a parent wouldn’t cause resentment and arguments. A technological solution seems perfectly reasonable in that conte

The title is confusing, can it be changed? There is no “forced GPL”, they are still using a Creative Commons license although there are legal problems with their attempt to retroactively relicense some of it from 3.0 to 4.0.

Never rely on a single cloud service for your backup. Always backup to at least one independent place such as a local hard drive or another cloud provider.

AFAIK the extreme, apocalyptic statements you are making are not supported by the science such as the IPCC. 3-4 degrees C of warming by 2100 will not make the human race or civilization cease to exist. There are also technological options a
