It's hard to take a Go-related article seriously when the first step involves using dep to install the Testify library. If you've got and existing project that hasn't been converted to modules yet, you might have to deal wit

True ... but there are thousands of us that sail (sailed) small yachts which have a more limited range if they have radar at all (power consumption and antenna height cause certain restrictions). AIS on the other hand works great and also

I didn't say that Ritalin was a nootropic ... but body hackers have been known to use both for enhanced performance. When I was in elementary school, my parents refused to put me on Ritalin but did experiment with giving me coffee for

Was (s)he a body hacker? I've seen people also experiment with nootropics in an aim to improve their output. The fact that it was a boss in a 1:1 is a bit weird but ... what if it had simply been a coworker telling you what worked fo

Hopefully it didn't sound like I was complaining! ... I also love that Saturdays and Sundays have a broader scope of topics making it to the front page. I do appreciate having the date shown though ... I've read a couple articles

"FreePN is the only completely free, fast, secure, anonymous, unlimited-bandwith VPN. It's also open-source." is already a mouthful but I think what caught my eye when reading through the FAQ is that it's peer-to-peer.

I'm not arguing against having the discussion ... my point is that trust in any certificate is reliant on its chain-of-trust and so if Let's Encrypt has this problem, you can't trust other certificates either. But the implic

And why exactly should we trust FreePN? I'm not qualified to do a security audit on the OSS code and unless you pay someone who's really good at cryptography, I think that statement applies to the rest of your users. EDIT: I sho

Betteridge's Law says "No" ... and given certificates are generated locally, I don't see how the certificates themselves could be compromised. The trust in a certificate (or trust in a false certificate) could potential

I use FreeCAD with the ship design/testing module and it makes my (beefy) desktop warm up the room a bit. I suspect that you could use the Pi 4 for drawing (to some limit) just fine but if you're calculating a lot of splines and

It's so funny to see an article from 1971 is on the same page as news (and ads) from 2020. If this were a printed newspaper, people would be very confused!

I guess since it's lasted 20+ years, perhaps it's more prescient than I thought? EDIT: I see that you've submitted an RFC but it misses (what I think is) the point. It's really the corollary of the law that is importan

I agree but I'd like the generic implementation of that. JSON schema never really took off and I believe that part of the reason is that there's not a way to indicate what type might be contained in a string or number (I'm o

Over 20 years ago, after I had devised a way to use Gray Code to embed a clock into a signal without increasing the signal's modulated bandwidth, one of my engineers said that someday there'd be a "Moyer's Law". I

That one seemed to work for me too ... I'm wondering if there is something weird going on with the links (or is the transformer training as we go?).
