I'd be stoked to launch a space telescope as a christmas present! Congrats to them!

Ugh there goes all our CI stuff.

The complexity that AWS has to deal with is astounding. Sure having your main production network and a management network is common. But making sure all of it scales and doesn't bring down the other is what I think they are dealing wit

I'm dubious that the appraisal difference was due to racial issues. Yes it might be but there is already an insane amount of random variance even between appraisals done during the same time. These appraisals were done with significant

Lenders don't get to pick appraisers anymore. They submit into a system and the system spits out the next appraiser. This was done to prevent gaming the system that happened in 2008.

I have 16MB of flash and I wanted to link in some webrtc Go library and the binary was over 1MB. As I had other stuff it seemed like C was smaller.

I'd like to write go or rust but embedded constraints are tough. I tried and the binaries are just too big!

These days you have to treat colocation as a fungible resource. It's good for batch processing and things like that where you can distribute the work.

Whenever I come across some code and think "who could possibly have thought this was a good idea?" I realize there is usually a story behind it. I feel like this comment belongs right along side the PAM source, if only to remind o

The amount of low level CPU architecture knowledge to write such a program is mind boggling. Just goes to show how much room for improvement a lot of programs have.

How much hardware does this require on a country level to basically run everything through a proxy? Seems quite a lot.

I like this. They are basically making a call to self insure against these types of incidents and paying out of their own coffers. It makes sense since recovering the stolen crypto is near impossible (as designed). It's funny how every

I wonder how this compares to xz or lzo. Is the main draw the fact that it runs in really low memory?

All this sounds insanely expensive. Just makes me double down on the fact that it is cheaper to make disposable satellites than make them last forever. Especially if it is cheaper to get them into space as well.

How does fingerprinting them help? You can fingerprint them but they are just desktops/mobile phones/laptops that have been compromised to be part of the botnet. The compromised hosts that are part of the botnet look exactly like

To block something like this you need to determine what is botnet traffic vs legit traffic. It's hard. Source IP doesn't work since it is random and changes. You need to look at things such as HTTP headers, TCP window and any odd

Should Epic's algorithm be open to critique or is it IP that they can keep secret? If challenged should they be forced to explain it or at least provide the inputs? It's worrisome to me that the process behind these numbers is fai

I mean why not go after Coinbase? The argument that everyone else is doing it why not go after them doesn't hold much water. Sometimes it makes sense to go after the biggest fish first. Also, is Coinbase saying Lend isn't an inves

Weird way to phrase the headline. Someone manually controlling the vehicle with a joystick hit the person.

You should risk it because the risk really is minimal and the greater benefit for society is enormous. I don't think people have cognitive bias. There are plenty of arguments in favor of getting it.

Because the issue is the interactions between the components and not the components themselves.

Nano feels a lot like windows notepad. Still my favorite editor and beginner friendly (as far as unix editors go).

C is not friendly but it sets you off on the right path. Adding a bit of C to your tool belt will give you success wherever you go. The concepts it teaches are invaluable in understanding why things are built the way they are today. Everyth

I disagree that you can pretty much do whatever you want with them. Modern conveniences such as a dishwasher coupled with a focus on healthy eating (less fat) result in poorly taken care of cast iron pans. Dishwashing soap these days are a

IPv6 has barely a carrot and no stick. Does anyone give me more money for using IPv6? Sure I might be able to save some money by not using IPv4 but that is rare. Government doesn't incentivize it. Ad networks don't either. There i

How is that solved then if no one setups any of the security parameters correctly? That sounds like the exact opposite.

ARIN has been constantly raising prices on both IPv4 AND IPv6 registrations and fees. It's really annoying because you'd think you'd get a break for adopting IPv6 but nope. I've expressed my disagreement on the public ma
