>There’s no better SIEM alternative that deals with logs at scale. I think folks that use Splunk for basic search just don't fully comprehend how capable the product is for hunt-type operations when someone fluent in SPL is at the h

I built a PCI compliance solution for a customer back in 2008 for ~$200k all-in when the closest competitor's bid was five times that. The product was amazing at runtime but of course had some idiosyncrasies in how it was configured a

What's the odds that such an obscure problem happens to someone with the patience and wherewithal to figure it out *and* fix it? Pretty impressive.

I wanted to do a certificate authority in space that you could connect to as it passed overhead and get certs and signatures from it. This wouldn't be a profitable enterprise.

Access. I spent about 100 hours on a shitty 11" Celestron last year learning all sorts of things about space and optics and image processing. I'm hooked even though the results are terrible. I can rent time on some big scopes in

Depends on the application. Starlink satellites are disposable (demisable). Not to say they shouldn't have stationkeeping to prolong the mission lifespan, just that there's no contingency servicing/maintenance plan if somet

I'd love to see an xprize kind of award for design of a disposable, flat pack 1m space telescope. Get the unit costs down to <$1m (ground-based 1m scopes are $500k) and put 100 of them up into orbit and make time available for very

These are known as BLEVE explosions, in which you have a liquid maintained above its boiling point through elevated pressure. When the vessel is breached the pressure quickly drops resulting in the entire volume flashing to vapor at a mass

Right there with you buddy. I spent so much time on the dopamine trip of watching people do cool things a good chunk of my life passed by getting nothing done myself. Started building things last year and it’s been a blast (and super frust

For me it’s like the debate about which way to set the hang on your toilet paper roll. There is no right answer and the fun is asserting that yours is correct.

Recommend checking out the rest of Justine’s YouTube channel. I’ll die on a hill for ex-spearmint though. That’s ok. She can’t be right about everything.

It's basically 'book babes'. Booth babes went out of fashion a while back for good reason. This kind of thing is relatively harmless in the instance but in aggregate puts out a vibe.

Possibly related, I really think a tool like this could be immensely useful in picking up speech and reading impediments early in the development process. May also be able to help measure progress of therapy and training.

I did! That three year period was from 2012-2015. My license just came up for its ten year renewal. Highly recommended for anyone tinkering. Easy process that gives you authority to do quite a bit of tinkering.

I think the problem we have with deepfake believability today it just takes one weak link to spoil it. It turns out that we're somehow still pretty bad at believable audio and not even close with deepfaked 'presence' in the
