You're describing backups. The base derivation keys still have to exist in an HSM to be used. No one is opening a safe and hand-typing the BDK each time they need to issue a PIN encryption key.

It should be noted that Kerbal Space Program's orbital mechanics are not all that realistic, especially when you introduce the three-body problem. The world of KSP is also scaled down to about 1/10 of real life unless you use mods

Typically the way to handle this is to use metal bands to affix it to a pallet. It will be very top heavy if stored upside down, and it's easier to just move it with a forklift anyway.

There may be a domain where it makes a lot of sense, but I've rarely encountered it. Writing and maintaining test code takes just as much time as any other code. You often encounter problems during the actual implementation part that c

> Do Test Driven Development A lot of this is common sense stuff, but it might be better to replace this part with "Write tests." TDD is the kind of thing that sounds great in a blog post, but doesn't actually seem to work

This is one of the reasons I took up trail running. It's hard to disconnect for very long when working at a startup. But after a few years of training, I can cross entire mountain ranges in a day and see things I would never otherwise

Anecdotal, but I find the exact opposite to be the case. The more alert and "strong" I feel during intense training, the less likely I am to let my form slip. When you're dog tired and slouching over, that's when the inj

We've known that caffeine increases aerobic capacity for half a century now. I don't see what new information this study is bringing to the table. If you take caffeine and your aerobic capacity increases, then you will either do m

But you could just kick it in the retrograde direction and to de-orbit it. In fact you could use centrifugal force and a cable to generate a significant amount of acceleration using reaction wheels powered by solar panels which would not co

There was a time in the recent past where musicians waning in popularity in the United States frequently found fame in Japan. Would the author accuse Japan of "Americanism"? The way we perceive other cultures' pop culture oft

You can't train above your ventilatory threshold while nose breathing, and boxers are definitely training above that level of intensity, at least for short burts. Fighting is anaerobic.

I think it's inertia. A lot of people have been using MySQL for 10+ years and it's still Good Enough. It takes them an extra 10 minutes to figure out how authentication or permissions work in postgres, and that extra 10 minutes is

This is a useful trick for quickly vetting just about anything that's outside your area of expertise. Often a simple search like "X sucks" or "X is bad" can be very telling. It's a good sign when it's diff

You really feel this effect when sleeping alone in the wilderness. You can hear every mouse or rabbit for hundreds of feet in any direction, even while asleep. If you know there are other apex predators in the area, you'll feel some pr

The parent comment was likely talking about the hippies, who are not the same demographic as the one you are referring to.

I don't want the containers to be transient. I want to be able to persist session cookies and local settings.

I'd like to see something like the firefox container extension automatically open a new container for every unique domain name. It could get tricky for eg. federated logins, so I'm not 100% sure what the implementation would look

> It’s actually illegal in Washington State Woah, didn't know this. It's not like it really changes anything when someone lays on their horn while passing me on my bike. But at least I can feel some righteous indignation now.

I'm not at all convinced. I was in peak physical condition while training for mountain races this year, and I still experienced the same stress and anxiety everyone else did.

This site is mainly used to share Japanese media. The streaming services have really dropped the ball in this area. They either don't simulcast to other parts of the world (netflix), offer terrible subtitles that are worse than fan tra

At least python and go packages don't execute arbitrary code on developer's workstations at install time. If you pin dependencies to a known safe version, then you're relatively safe. With NPM, just typing `npm update` can pw

I always write a commit and push it before I stop for the day, even if I'm in the middle of a complex refactor. If it's not a complete commit, I make sure to note that in the commit message so I can rebase it. When I get back to w

A lot of people out there don't get to choose their workstation OS. Their only options are a linux VM in virtualbox, or a linux VM in WSL2.
