Make sure you sign yourself up for something like https://haveibeenpwned.com if you haven't already. Sometimes being timely in responding to leaks can make a big difference on any further leaks.

Interesting about the stats and the sudden increase in 2012. I have personally been listening to music in public since 2004 and days of iRiver [1] for the reasons the parent post mentions. [1]: http://www.superfi.co.uk/image

My main gripe with btrfs is how it quickly becomes excruciatingly slow after some use and using it with VM disks for instance is impossible while keeping the COW feature on (again because it's slow). Does bcachefs have these issues?

Not an answer to your question, but somewhat related: I recently worked on an automated thumbnail generator which used PhantomJS (headless Webkit browser) to load some 20000 pages and screenshot them. The problem was that these pages had ja

I think the current education system is inefficient at best. It also fails to expose kids to variety of skills/professions out there enough, so they can get a taste of what it's like to be this or that. Most kids don't know w
