This will be true in some interviews, but not in all. I'm generally against using leetcode in interviews, but wherever I've seen it used it's usually for one reason & one reason alone: known dysfunctional hiring processes

The EU law is good for consumers & bad for advertising companies. In response to this, advertising companies have made the web a significantly worse user experience. You can reasonably argue that if the EU had not taken action to reduce

I love this website but yeah that banner really bothered me. 100% appreciate the effort to reduce cookies & the commitment to avoid 3rd-party, the tongue-in-cheek "legally required" flies completely in the face of all that eff

I got an Asus router & installed Merlin. Comes with a Wireguard server & Dyndns support built in, all via a very simple user friendly UI.

If you're looking for a low pain way to run a Wireguard server, an Asus router with Merlin installed is as simple as it gets. UI generates QR codes for clients, & there's even an app.

I was more referring to J1772. We don't have NACS in Europe so if you have J1772 you can always charge anywhere. This does mean Jeff's Leaf would be limited to AC without an adapter, which isn't perfectly ideal, but still bet

by lucideer 1y ago
Anyone who follows Jeff will know he's US-based, but I still really felt he could've highlighted that fact more in that charging port standards section. The fact that both J1772 & CCS2 are 100% universal in Europe is huge. So

To add a thought on tackling the listed faults: 1. I suspect the NPV problem may be a fundamentally unsolvable problem (or at least one that would literally take a global paradigm shift in how all societies are structured to do so). This se

Firstly let me agree with both current sibling commenters: zero bias is impossible & the brand & extent of Wikipedia's biases is distinctly bad. That said, I find Wikipedia's biases predictable, avoidable (topic specific)

I recall quite liking the typography on this website the first time I saw it years ago. It's amazing how much it has dated for me since (I think primarily due to being liberally copied exactly in too many places around the web). >

No, boycotting them is entirely orthogonal to the issue. Passkeys have no role in ensuring that we do or don't rely on remote attestation - they're two totally separate considerations. Passkeys have many benefits over current alte

I think there's a bunch of factors to why yubi have upped their prices - not least, waiting for competition in their form factor & not seeing any emerge (token2 & nitrokey are much bulkier) probably gave them some confidence in

Passkeys would be better without remote attestation, no doubt. But remote attestation is not only optional but also, passkeys are not a prerequisite for requiring remote attestation. Lots of services that don't support passkeys current

"Passkeys" is a new brand name slapped on an older open, interoperable technology, so it's difficult for me to be "against passkeys" as they haven't fundamentally changed anything. Before the branding they were

You're right of course, most users don't know or care. If they did, iOS wouldn't have a 61% share of the US market. But the % of the total market that do care is not an insignificant % of the total Android userbase. There&#x2
