Is there always a great reference for which way down is, given that the phone can be in various orientations? You might have to do some other heuristics / build some other model for that to figure out which axis to subtract your 9.8 m&

The issue isn't that it's self-deprecating, it's that it's not funny, esp. given the context. "Read the room" type of thing.

> Literally no one will sell you an eSim contract for just few days. T-Mobile definitely will (I mean, you pay for x GB and minutes and it lasts a month, just like most prepaid setups). Just requires a download of their app -- I use it w

One way to do that would be to look at outcomes of patients who have received the therapy to see if they feel their needs are met, like this study did.

This is a neat project. You're up against people setting up their own WireGuard exit nodes -- are these folks just not in your target audience?

Your browser remembers and replays it. localStorage/sessionStorage/cookies aren't available to parse by the time request headers are sent. You'll notice this behavior goes away if you select the URL bar and hit enter (as

Can I ask if you actually fly planes? Moving the trim is exactly how most autopilots work. I usually fly the 172 and pitch changes made via the autopilot (I am usually flying with a GFC700) are done 100% via actuation of the trim wheel -- a

Moving SSH to a non-standard port is helpful only to reduce log noise coming from untargeted attacks. If an attacker is looking at your system, your attack surface is the same no matter where your SSH daemon is bound. I don't think i

Speaking about conspiracy by "pseudo-feminists and simps" doesn't lend a lot of credibility to the argument.

Man, your issue is not that you do not have enough external validation, it's that you crave it so badly. I guarantee you achieving your concrete goals would not make you happy -- you would just move the goalposts. I would really recomm

Definitely agree! That's why the author has explicitly filtered out patternwork by excluding "circles" that are particularly close to an airport. It doesn't mean anything is sinister, but this project is definitely aware

I do a bit of reverse engineering both professionally and for fun, and the two bits of “proper” education that have helped the most were my Hardware/Software Interface and Intro to Operating Systems classes in undergrad. Learning how t

Hey folks! Original author here -- happy to answer any questions about credential storage or the nitty-gritty of WebAuthn.

I'm not sure I agree. If you can affect the state of the runtime in ways that are not intended to be possible by the WASM API, this breaks sandboxing requirements. Even if you can't break out of the current process (due to isolati

I mean, yeah, if you truly feel hurt when I use that word, I won't use it around you. Absolutely. It's more important to me that the people around me feel heard and seen than for me to get to use a particular word. If a whole gro

Sure. My ancestors were enslaved by the British. The difference is that I do not face discrimination today as a result of that. For black people in the US today, that's not the case -- the effects of slavery are still systemic issues.

I just honestly do not believe that those are the motivations of folks trying to decolonize programming vocabulary.

It's not about intention. Nobody believes that the words "master" and "slave" are intended to cause racial stress in a technical context -- but that's not the point. The point is that these words do not exist

FYI, they just started offering paper checks. It's in beta I believe. I received my first Simple checkbook and wrote a check just a couple weeks ago.

Wait, you're saying that you intentionally favor job applicants based on your admittedly subconscious biases?
