Agreed, what I have done is just not answer my phone unless they are in my contact list. I also do not share my cellphone number with anyone. Seems like everyone wants it these days and the pandemic made it worse, so I have a Google Voice

It's anecdotal, but I have memories from when I was an infant. The only reason I know is because my parents relocated a lot when I was young. I have spacial recall of the layout of their apartments. I have specific vivid memories in

Tough to really answer as each has it's advantages and disadvantages. I value data ownership so I will always lean towards self-hosting, but that isn't always practical as we are talking about a community, not one person or even

I used to live in a major Texas city that refused to implement a bus service. After several years of criticism, they decided to finally trial a bus service. They setup bus stops around the city to gather data and determine if this would b

I left my last job because it wasn't really going how I wanted it to go. My wife and I have setup our finances such that we can live on a single income. For almost two years I did nothing but tinker on toy projects, personal projects

Not many places I have worked for allowed for this to be automatic. A lot of it was so they could provide a coherent explanation as to what the current state of internal attention was directed at vs what everyone can plainly see.

I wrote a script that basically hits an offsite DNS with my latest IP. It's worked quite well. I think in the past 4 years I have had Comcast, they haven't changed my IP once.

I've been doing my own hosting for 20 years, this just doesn't happen often enough to concern myself with it. You need to disassociate yourself from the start-up mindset when you DIY a side project app or site. Having said that,

I think ICE cars will see a retro use period like many nostalgic things, so while I agree the daily driver will change, it's very likely that fuel will be seen as some sort of luxury product. Right now fuel is a loss leader for most g

They are adopting v3 but the important aspect is they are not deprecating the old v2 functionality. Chrome is deprecating v2 which will break these types of extensions.

I was on the free tier so I don't know for sure, but I believe the whole point of the dedicated IP offering is you are the only customer who can use it. So long as your SPF records reflect just that IP SPF will remain in force if some

If you pay for a static IP and tighten up your SPF records to just that IP rather than using Mailgun's include, you should be fine. It's bad that their service allows this at all, but it isn't the end of the world for all of

Mailgun does this, however I wouldn't recommend any of these services unless you are willing to fork out the cash for a static IP. The free tier or shared IP side is where these kinds of shenanigans can be played out.

Yep, and Mailgun requires a domain as well, they just don't do anything with it for filtering this behavior.

True, but do you just allow them to borrow the reputation of your other customers? If a scammer knows example.com is a customer (DNS records will tell me this quickly) and a scammer decides to open an account and send as example.com throug

I think it's difficult to prove, and the only people who care will be the domains owners that are impacted. If you send enough mail, you won't notice a few extra emails going out from another account. Mailgun should have a way to
