Appreciate the thought behind using the hashed URL to avoid leaking PII. That does make comments difficult too though because of refs being inserted by various social platforms. Not sure how one would handle that though

Mmm. My two cents... There's some extrapolation here. I've tried multiple models of taking notes with digital tools. They all come with this assumption that our brains are thinking in a single mode at any given time which is not p

For those interested, this is the premise of Yuval Noah's article "the theatre of terrorism" - https://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/jan/31/terrorism-spec... As the URL suggests, the auth

Only looking at this because I saw this reply. I don't have a visceral reaction to it, but I do believe that the design of the clock is rather ambiguous. From my perspective, the minute hand is actually at ~24 hence the hour hand being

Extend this comment to the most creative branches. When it comes to being digitally creative you need an OS and hardware functioning together without any hiccups. I've worked on iPads and other tablets and from drawing to music making,

Without knowing the scale it's hard to answer this. But in general HAProxy is THE layer to sit in front of web servers. From DDoS protection rules to a true set of metrics and a real dashboard (good luck w/ Datadog metrics for Ngi

Catching up on this as well. More chatter going on on https://twitter.com/hashtag/npmlayoffs?src=hash . Interesting conversations around the future of Node and the incredibly close tie in it has to npm. More interestin

Oh I can't wait to try this one out. The trailer makes it look good. Most importantly, it has workshop support! https://steamcommunity.com/app/929860/workshop/

Cannot speak for industry, so speaking from experience in academia when we were learning functional programming (FP). The key difficulty there is the paradigm shift in thinking. For most people our thinking matches imperative programming. A

I love this. I do wonder though if anyone can educate me on the choice to do a monthly sponsorship? I think that's awesome but at the same time, there are a lot of developers I want to send 10 dollar tips to for that library that they

Ouch. Sucks to read that. For anyone who might be interested in a possible alternative to this, I keep two bank accounts with the same bank with only one being connected to my debit card. I keep a tiny balance in the account connected to th

As a layman on this topic, I'm curious about the difficulty around this project: It seems like a lot of people have gone through similar experiences of building an 8 bit CPU simulator/emulator. Curious why it's not 64 bits. I

I tried searching for keywords on Google and Twitter and couldn't find anything to suggest this was the case. Do you have a source that you can suggest for this?

Tried tcp too. Weirdly it refused to work. Haven't been able to fully check for configuration errors on my end here but i can't think of anything I did wrong either :)

I have a feeling theyve done some form of traffic analysis. My default open vpn setup on a digital ocean box with the port changed to 443 is blocked somehow with both major ISPs here.

Thanks. I'll be taking a look at tunelling soon. The material around it is difficult to read and put together to be honest. I'm right now using Nord via their ovpn files. Somehow it made its way through one ISP ruleset. For my dig

It's actually infuriating this ban. I'm from SL, currently on Nord VPN which hasn't been blocked by 1 of the major ISPs. Both major ISPs are aggressively blocking standard open vpn traffic however. I'm not entirely sure

Curious about the comment on Norway taxes. They are high but the benefits offered are very good for citizens. Education and healthcare being top benefits. Also the culture contributes a lot to viewing it more positively from what I understa

That's exactly why they spend that much money. They know you can be submitted. They want tech talent. Not revolutionists. It's a rough world out there and it's better to get in line than lose your pot of gold. Doesn't ma

That is am excellent story! Thanks for sharing :). I used to do things like ruby koans and Euler project stuff back when I was live streaming. You make a really good point about how the shorter stuff lends itself well to live streaming.

Lots of people discussing the pros and cons of livecoding. I'd like to share some alternate thoughts if possible. I believe that there is a niche interested in watching and/or participating in livecoding and for them they do it be

On another note, tech crunch seems to have done research where they actually monitored information passing through. Is this an ok line to cross in security disclosures? It doesn't feel right. Like as soon as you know you are looking at

This is tangential/possibly off-topic. I was wondering if anyone could educate me as to why this site needs to use next.js in the first place (the site of the blog, not spectrum). It's mentioned in this blog post and I followed th

It's even more expensive in some locations. A car in Sri Lanka costs more than buying the same model in Canada. In Canada the Yaris Hatchback for example is half the current selling price in Sri Lanka. iPhones and other electronics are

That last part of "demanding more pay" almost never happens. The reality is, service economies start a race to the bottom by taking advantage of the lower starting cost of living and then the economy doesn't really improve. P
