It's totally possible that OP was simply not aware that GitHub offers static hosting, in which case my interpretation is just as valid, and my comment is then useful to both them as well as anyone else that might not know that. Just be

The comment I was replying to says: > This, along with GitHub/GitLab make for great, free ways for people to learn some basic HTML. I read that as saying "a combination of both GitHub/GitLab and the static hosting service

You don't use the blockchain to verify ownership of a private key. You know the public key, and the owner of the private key can sign any message to prove that they indeed have the private key associated with that public key. This can

NFTs can be created that are non-resellable, you just build that into the smart contract. Even if they were, you can see the full transaction history and decide to reject anyone but first owners

I think that the true value of NFTs will come from interoperability, where there is no central authority, and you can treat it as a sort of cross-platform standard for verifying ownership of digital assets. This doesn't really apply to

I was responding to the comment that said GitHub + static hosting (this). I'm saying that you don't need external static hosting if you're already using GitHub, because GitHub has that out of the box at the flip of a switch (

For 2, the server can send back a random number (let's call it a nonce) for that attempt session. This nonce can be used to seed the prng such that you couldn't have started the attempt before telling the server that you're s

To me, the main selling point of Google Photos is their excellent AI search (yes, I understand the implications). Otherwise, Syncthing covers all of my requirements. Is there any alternative that has this kind of indexing/search?

I've never heard this as an acronym, but I use it in practice! For me, it's an extension of "three or more, use a for" that made sense for all repetition and not just loops.

I've been saying this for ages — the future setup is going to be phones as a singular device. When you get home, you'll dock it to be able to use your peripherals or extra monitors. Phones will become even more powerful, but even

Excellent! Node-RED has come a really long way in a very short time, and this update fixes a lot of problems I've had in the past (I use it to manage my smart home setup and a few smaller automation things)

There are many ways to skin a cat. Personally, in vim, I would do "dj" or "dk" twice, (deletes two lines up or down respectively) and then dd for the 5th one. Where vim shines is where you can just naturally start string

And that's just scratching the surface! There are all sorts of additional quirks, e.g. on mobile browsers the URL bar and the bottom bar (only on some OSs) will be ignored in the calculation, while the keyboard being toggled will not,

Easier said than done unfortunately. One thing that has helped me with tabs a lot is a browser extension that always opens links in the same tab. This makes it so that I need to be explicit if I want to open something in a new tab, and I en

IMO people's opinions are more malleable than one might think, as long as you package the message in the right way and slowly modify it over time. E.g. you would start by telling the anti-vaxer that anti-vax propaganda is a conspiracy
