Sherry, then. Or vermouth. Or any other fortified wine. It shouldn't be any more difficult to search for than whisky.

Surgical scrubs are disposable. Patient gowns are usually made of tough materials like cotton and polyester that can tolerate a fair amount of heat. If bleach in lukewarm water doesn't work, how about a boil wash? Boil washing is usual

I thought Elon's takeover of Twitter was a mess... but now OpenAI is taking it to a whole new level. Hypothesis: excessive hype + tens of billions of dollars at stake = even supposedly intelligent people are prone to lose their shit.

This kind of conflict of interest is usually not an issue when it comes to non-profits. Nonprofit boards are often filled with people who own businesses in the same field, especially if said nonprofit is meant to help promote or coordinate

Note that adding your domain to the PSL has potentially unwanted side effects. For example, it will become somewhat inconvenient to share data across your subdomains. Instead of just setting a session cookie with domain=.start.page, you wil

Brilliant as sama is, a star fundraiser is more replaceable than a top engineer. One can imagine Microsoft, for example, swooping in and acquiring a larger share of the for-profit entity (and an actual seat on the board, dammit) for more bi

It looks like the meme began when the first one got the catalog designation "cow". The next one got "kwla", so it's called koala. Ancient Greeks and Chinese alike looked at the sky and saw animals in the constellati

It's easy to get the share structure you want if you're the founder of a typical C Corp. Sam Altman can probably do it in his sleep. In a non-profit structure, your options are much more limited. There are no shares, no shareholde

Basic proxying seems to be working fine for me. Existing DNS records continue to be served. Existing files on R2 are accessible. Can't change anything without a bunch of API errors, though. Hope I don't need to turn on "I

Many websites actually do this. It significantly weakens the defense against the forwarding problem because people will blindly click submit. But IMO it's an acceptable compromise for anything not business-critical. Some people have co

Unfortunately, the captcha is a deal breaker for anyone who is running APIs instead of regular, boring, human-accessible websites. We can barely tell humans and robots apart, and have no idea how to tell good robots from bad robots.

Cloudflare's layer-7 protection is crap, but it's still orders of magnitude more effective than anything Linode or Hetzner can pull off. Any major cloud or datacenter can block an old-fashioned UDP flood these days, but botnets ha

If you're under attack now, you should get a new public IP first. Then you can hide behind Cloudflare and drop all unproxied connections. Unless and until you get a new IP, no amount of Cloudflare wizardry can stop all the direct traff
