Wait. I thought the problem of being DDoS-ed is widely solved, i.e., just pick someone else (cloudflare, akamai, fastly, etc) to be the "proxy" of your site, and then let them defend the attack for you. No?

I am unsure if this applied to all the flights, but most flights I booked showed the airplane model before I paid. I guess this is a good thing for customers, i.e., one can make an informed decision without too much hassle by manually check

Well, for me. I never care about this feedback thing. It is apparent from the situation that Boeing had enough feedback (and scrutinization) from everyone after lion air 610 and ethiopian 302. The fact that they refuse to fix the problem af

Well, avoiding a specific airplane model, especially one with a notorious history like the 737MAX, isn't about 'marginally improving safety'; it's about making an informed choice based on known risks.

For the past two months, I have been avoiding 4 737max flights already. This is to the extent that one of them was to transit for 10 hours (without max), compared to a 2-hour convenient layover with 737max. I guess this will stay as my pers

the fact that this thing needs to be discussed in the parliament in the first place is an absolute waste of time.

Met Joe Armstrong 7 years ago during his time at SICS (now RISE). Rest in peace, Joe! Definitely, the guy who became my role model in programming.

As the summer period is finally here, the sun rises super early in the morning and sets late, around 8/9 pm. That is already outside my commuting schedule, if I may argue. :-)

One of the reasons why I bike to work every day is to get some DIRECT light from the sun. Many kinds of research have shown the positive sides of it. If I live in a hotter (and humid?) place, i.e., middle-east or SEA, I would love the idea.

I would add Lex Fridman's conversation with Saifedean Ammous. It would at least partially serve this purpose if you don't have that much time. Be aware that Saifedean's view is strong (well, this is obvious considering his b

The first three chapters look promising! When sailing through the computer network topic, my great companion was Tanenbaum's and Richard Stevens's book. Although, I have to be honest that if I only read that book without exposure

Yup, that's correct. Maybe it depends on the field and the country, but I know some industrial PhD position pays a better salary than the one employed full time by the university. Not sure if it is considered to be "much", bu

A fellow PhD student here. Come to Sweden (or, rather, Nordic countries in general). There are a lot of opportunities as an industrial PhD student. There are at least 3 out of 10 PhD students in my group doing research while still working i

Lidl is also my first choice in Sweden when it comes to supermarket. It does not make sense for me to pay 30-50% more of my money to a relatively same product from COOP or ICA. Imo, they're already good at the supermarket business. I a

this is absolutely amazing! Even though I prefer to write everything locally, I've been forced to use overleaf due to the fact that my collaborator forced me to do so. But, with this speed, I will probably throw away overleaf. :)
