This is cool, thanks. I use the embedded UI but I’m going to play around with yours too. DuckDB is the single-most impressive piece of software I’ve used in my career. I’m mangling terabytes of parquets daily and it just handles them effort

Nice articles in there. Bookmarked. Edit: it’s also actually a book!

For those just looking for a second screen with their iPad or MacBook, Universal Display does exactly this, given you’re already in the Apple ecosystem. Second CPU would be nice, too.

I was able to recover my Rubygems account :); unfortunately my projects were all private and solo :(; I am currently looking into lawyers—if anyone has any recommendations here my inbox is open.

That's the same stance I have and why I'm torn. The little quirk here—where it makes slightly more sense—is that they received a legal notice at one point (from the US Government) about my account, there are plenty of online artic

There is, but it's not a phone number I have access to anymore. I changed it to the said person's phone number before I surrendered so that this exact scenario did not happen. I trusted the wrong person.

This is nice. MLB has a surprisingly nice API for accessing things like this. (I misinterpreted "watch" completely different (post history will reflect why))

Lawyers don't have much to do with this part of the process. Adults-in-custody have a points system that reflects where they fall on the ladder as far as custody level goes. More in Program Statement 5100: https://www.bop.go

We did have a library! It wasn't all that bad, or so I heard. My partner sent me books on the regular that were more my taste. I found a lot of my fellow travelers were more interested in sci-fi and fiction than my taste for biology&#x

The economics just would not have worked, let alone being the one to break the contractual agreements between the leagues and cable companies: my customers were more concerned about availability (see: no blackouts) than they were about pric

I sent him an email too. I appreciate your interest in this and the interest of the community at large. It's comforting in a way—I feel like the world's worst criminal still. At the same time it's validating to have done some

Thanks for the heads up. I think your DNS is cached. Should be "okay" in an hour. Was a fun ride, though not for my blood pressure.

I am considered still in-custody so I have taken the site offline. I never, ever expected any kind of attention given to it. I don't want to provide mixed signals to any BOP of DOJ employee that may misinterpret the purpose of this web

There’s a lot of factors that go into a sentence calculation—in the fed it’s all on a grid called the sentencing guidelines. Loss amount is just one lever.

I am a builder at heart. I absolutely hated doing anything with that Roku app, though. Most of those platforms had web support which made my life easier. I had a bridge with the Android apps that kicked the stream out to a native player—not

Edit: I'm still considered in-custody due to being on house arrest, and I have decided to take this site offline to prevent any potential confusion with my probation officer. It was never meant to be made public—at least, on the front

I’m curious your relation to the BOP—there are all but a few of us here. My email is in my profile if you’d care to share. The FSA and SCA do wonders for shorter sentences indeed. The recent push (at least on paper) for more timely transiti

I got picked up by my partner, thankfully. I was a self-surrender too. I did hear that they yanked out all the valuable assets from Cimarron (OKC's out-of-custody transfer facility) and now all the doors are manually keyed, amongst oth

Former federal inmate here who was recently released from prison a month ago today (I did 18 months): The big deal here was the loss amount, which can be construed any number of ways whether we like it or not. This will jack up the points a
