I've long been confused about Wireguard getting all the attention over ZeroTier. ZT is so good at finding a communications path that I had to figure out how to block it from traversing one of my IPSec tunnels.

That'd be some plot twist. One of the most unexpected things I ever came across in Europe was a group of Seminoles selling artwork at a weekend flea market in Milan.

In this instance, it's hard not to question the intelligence of a police officer thinking a white spot on the outside of a car might be drugs. But overall, in the War on Some Substances, anything goes. Blame needs to start at the top.

It always amuses me how the HN collective tears apart whatever rachelbythebay writes. Maybe they should change their online identity to rossbythebay. The tale they've shared should be obvious: When a deploy is causing problems, stop. A

I think you're giving too much weight to what's in their example image. I use a competitor's free tier to monitor my own stuff. Using a SaaS is better for several reasons: 1. Don't have to install / maintain any

ACLU will stop defending the right of assembly to people who intend to be armed, and their reasoning is... reasonable. They've been very active in supporting the other 1st, 4th, 14th amendment rights of gun owners and have given no ind

Some chunk of that was loans secured by stock. Presumably the $500M line-of-credit is to refinance.

As a mid-20s Windows sysadmin focussed on automation for web hosting, getting laid off in '01 really kicked my ass. Want someone who knows how to reliably and "securely" (by 2001 standards) host hundreds of ASP sites on Windo

Friend of mine at a payroll processor you've all heard of was excited to migrate to AWS because it took 4-6 weeks for IT to provision a new VM. On their app team's dedicated hardware! So much of the Fortune 500 lust for public clo

What's the argument here, that average people are too dumb to know that their computer needs to be on to access something running on it? That they're too dumb and poor to find and buy another device to run their Plex server if the

Plex is just an application. My start, back when it was still Mac-only, was to run it on my Macbook Pro. When the drive got full, I deleted content that I'd already watched. For a decade now, Plex runs on any Windows / Mac /

Down payment is only a portion of the costs to buy a loan. My 3.5% down FHA mortgage on $309K purchase price cost me about $16K. My previous 5% down conventional on $103K was around $12K. Moving in ain't free, either.

Looking at Google's lowest-paid H-1Bs, I gotta wonder, why are they importing Data Center Technicians? How does that even qualify for H-1B?

US immigration is racist and broken. But can we stop kidding ourselves that H-1B holders seeking permanent status are innocent victims? They're exploiting a loophole (dual-intent) to immigrate where they otherwise would have a difficul
