Not terribly germane to this this OP but there are people who "close" their online stores at times. One example is B&H Photo - http://www.bhphotovideo.com/ On the footer of their pages it says: "Please

Do you have any recommendations on which CA is good for EV certs (that work in Chrome)?

by jonah 11y ago
Chrome says they don't supply Certificate Transparency information. Is this something they should be doing?

I've been wondering how much "pay-at-the-pump" card machines affect sales of incidentals. If a fraction of customers are going inside and being exposed to the snacks, how's that work out?

Sadly, I don't think even that would get us to change our ways to prevent it this time around.

It's such a poor translation, it's unfortunate so many people still hold it as the one . My feeling is that being exposed to the KJV turns away a lot of people who might otherwise be interested in reading the Bible. There are so

Is it any more or less than other things we discuss here? Meh. It is of historical interest though. (And in the grand scheme of things, this story isn't that popular, plus Sunday is a slow news day.)

Some time back I was working at a company that made very popular cutting edge graphics software. Some of the key developers had beige-box machines labeled "Property of Intel" and "Confidential". Inside were Intel motherb

Here are the sequence of emails we as a customer received: 1:44PM PST - The Neustar UltraDNS service is currently experiencing DDoS traffic in the U.S. East Region. The Security Operations Team is currently working on mitigating attack tra

Interesting. We use UltraDNS and didn't go down at all.

My proposed solution to the whole mess is to separate the Marriage and the Partnership. Let people get Married in accordance with their religious or social practices as they desire but it holds no legal standing. Then, have the State offer

So, what is it doing that f.lux isn't/can't on non-jailbroken phones? I know they'd need access to APIs that Apple doesn't make available.

I did this at my last office. It's a bonus to have to take a break every 75-90 minutes to go outside and move your car - especially when you're not a smoker.

I've watched them from up close; that "device" is simply an Android smartphone. If you've parked over time (in 75 or 90 minute zones, they'll take a picture of their chalk mark too.) The ones I don't like are t

My city doesn't allow billboards in town. Billboards on the highways are also banned in my half of the county. I really appreciate it. Less visually assaulting and you can appreciate the natural and built beauty better.

Unfortunately, the more automation, fewer and more skilled workers are needed. That's always been the case and will only continue to happen. People will be able to specialize and diversify more.

So, a tip for you - Chilean avos are Counter Seasonal. So, when they're not ripe here in CA, they are down in the Southern Hemisphere. ;) (Avos are so good I just took four camping this weekend.)

"Plastic Welding" is term people use. Though it tends to mean chemically bonding the mating plastics.

The engine control software in question was produced by Bosch. They say they warned Volkswagen that the feature in question was for development only and not to be used in production.

I don't know what your experience with the car is but even professional drivers and car reviewers describe it as challenging and a handful. Also, it doesn't have a electronic stability-control system. Of course the driver is likel

Yes, there will be some sort of roof rack. (Though a hitch rack like the sibling comment mentions is far more aerodynamic.)

They showed it pulling an Airstream[1] during the event. I didn't hear whether they stated what range that would get though. ;) [1] http://i.imgur.com/AEAw6xN.png

The Carrera GT is a notoriously hard-to-handle car. It's twitchy and has very few electronic "nannies". Any car can kill you if you drive it outside its safe envelope.

Really nicely done! Is all the equipment yours or did you work in a Makerspace or something?
