I like radio, I grew up with short wave and still remember picking up stations late in the night in languages I’d never imagined existed. I recently bought a cheap SW radio to play with my kid and I got surprised by the amount of stations f

I have a bunch of screenshots in my laptop that I take for reasons like attaching to tickets and sharing on Slack. Some are very sensitive if shared outside the company. If the attacker had physical access to the laptop, that explains.

That's the moment I'd recommend you to close the website and book a hotel. The whole pandemic reminded me I miss staying in hotels. Not having to worry about groceries, lunch, cleaning ... A great hotel experience turns your holid

My computer graphics class used pov ray back in early 2000s. I remember I wrote a Perl script to generate my scenes to avoid typing things manually. I still may have the code somewhere.

Am I the only one who wants to work from home and still get the 30k-a-year raise? jokes apart, if remote culture consolidates with different compensation and benefit packages compared with those in the office, we'll likely start to see

This reminds me the first time I got in the process to sign a 1MM contract. I kept pushing for a price reduction and the sales guy kept giving me clues of how this would affect commission. I had no idea that he was talking about my commissi

FSF was never a movement or an organization. It's a fact that its influence has been waning in the last two decades becase it was nothing more than a echo chamber to RMS's own image. I'm not sure they can part ways with that.
