I'm running a Dell T140. It's not the cheapest, but has idrac "remote control bios". So I never have to sit next to the box. It houses 4 disks + you can add SSDs via PC and it has ECC RAM. Plus I added a couple of years

I've dislocated my shoulder once and it was reset without any pain killers. While the method indeed is quite similar to medieval torture, it was certainly not the worst pain I experienced that day. Although I might have been lucky that

I really like this property: > Intention requests access only to the sites you select, not all sites. Very few add-ons implement it (talking about Firefox) but it makes the add-on much more trustworthy.

Interesting that you have the same feeling. I used to like RTS-style/city builder games and put endless hours in them (think simcity, rollercoaster tycoon, settlers, ... ). I barely play games anymore, but now I focus more on short (si

Thanks for the elaborate answer on my, in hindsight, not very clear question. The use case I was referring too is where the VPN is between e.g. your corporate network and your pc when working from home. In this case the VPS doesn't nee

Does the VPS have unencrypted access to the VPN? It's something I would want to avoid. (A VPS is a prime candidate to be compromised)

The syntax looks like C but it's not, and causes bugs, e.g. in this loop: i =0; for (j = [1:5]){ echo(i); i=i+1; } keeps printing "1" instead of 0 to 4

I agree: Recently I found an interesting snippet of C code which was using an sprintf to write a string into a char array. Unfortunately, it contained an off-by-one error where the null terminator would be written outside the char. I propos

I tend use the "Leaning Tower of Pisa" metaphor. If it leans too much, the tower will fall down. If it doesn't tilt at all, you won't sell tickets to tourists. The art is to find the sweet spot.

This is one of the items embedded Linux development using Yocto has particulary well covered. It checks every license for every package and you can ask it to verify the checksum of the license file. If the license changes after upgrading a

This is why projects like yocto and buildroot exist. They help you maintain a stable software stack over time. And generate a fully contained software image that can be flashed without needing the internet afterwards. (All downloads happen

Probably they want to group their buyers using that browsing information. E.g HN readers tend to have i7 CPUs etc. While they state only "The categories of websites you visit, but not the URL itself" is transferred. I'm wonde

I personally prefer the naam FAAS. It's a logical naming scheme where each xAAS moves the maintenance of an increasing part of the tech stack to your supplier. PAAS > SAAS > FAAS

I recently chose gRPC as a communication protocol between two devices (sort of IoT). Until now it works perfectly as expected. The C++ code generator provides a clean abstraction plus it saved a lot of time (both in programming and debuggin

This is the perfect moment to stress that git is decentralized, so you can push/pull directly from you colleagues. The fact that github is down is a only poor excuse for an extended coffee break. ;) (Down from BE)

It's sometimes a bit of a hassle, but I have to python script that generates and configures it for me. And in some cases I fallback to <bricks-and-mortar-shop>@domain.com Because that's much easier to spell out to a cashier.

I have the same pattern but added a 6 character hexadecimal postfix based on a hash. facebook-com-a2bdc0@domain.com This makes it less trivial to guess the other domains. (although you could bruteforce the entire range)
