The main issue with options is the time component. Now you have to bet on the direction and be pretty precise with the when. Also, prices for these options (Tesla is a good example) aren't cheap. For example a bet that Tesla will be be

fastmail has a service called pobox.com, which is basically like an incoming e-mail router. I do similar to the OP, using it. You can route 1 incoming e-mail to 2 gmail boxes, which is very useful.

Perhaps this was the entire point of Intel's work here??? Worst case scenario for Intel they block AMD from patenting (and allowing Intel to use it).

Feels like the classic Developer wants to start a business but doesn't really understand marketing, traction, product-market fit, etc. etc. Granted I've done the same thing 5 times now, but never again. Should have mocked up a bar

I'm a pen tester for a mid-ish sized company. I recently got approval to remove "port security" (802.11x) on a single port within the building. It is amazing the amount of access I now have (using a non-company managed laptop

Multiple things are happening. 1. Etherum is moving to a "Proof of Stake" at some point this year. This will mean you don't need GPU power to mine Etherum. While Bitcoin can be mined with ASIC's Etherum requires a large

This was a scene in the movie Don't Look Up. A cellphone company CEO (a Zukerburg type character) introduces the 9.5 update, which includes emotion sensors. When you are sad, it automatically shows you pictures of cats. So yes, I do. E

Yes, and Apple 100% has the capacity / ability to filter out "fake" AirTags on their back-end. All they need to do is setup a manufacturing process that captures the public keys. So the phones will still relay the beacons to

The hostname of most (all?) TLS connections is sent plaintext at the start of a new connection. This is called SNI (Server Name Indication). That provides some (or a lot) of value I am guessing.

Agreed about the problem, but not the solution. I love that Toyota still has buttons (and nice, big, rugged, built to last buttons). The last thing I want is a damn ipad. I want a dumb screen that just supports android auto / carplay.
