"Trying to be self-funding" and "trying to make a profit" are very different things, and it doesn't make sense to conflate them. Even though funding wasn't the primary focus of this blog post, it seems to make

On the one hand, taking code from your employer and posting it to GitHub with the copyright notices removed is about as clear-cut a case of copyright infringement as you can get -- if they have evidence. Should be easy to confirm or deny

I'm curious about how the legalities of this work. If you create a TreasuryDirect account using my SSN, do you then require a durable power of attorney to manage it on my behalf, as laid out in 31 CFR § 363.33? Or are you simply loggin

I don't think the birthday paradox is exactly the right model either. By itself, a matching fingerprint between two different rail sections on opposite sides of the world wouldn't present a problem, as long as the train knows its

The "-m" doesn't do anything by itself, but it's there in case you want to add an option like "-p", which otherwise wouldn't show a useful diff for a merge commit. With "--first-parent -m -p", th

If you have a Git repository with merge commits that merge changes back into your main branch, all you have to do is "git log --first-parent -m" to get a log that looks exactly as if you had squashed and rebased every change. I&

It's called a multiple-tariff meter. Of course it's easier to implement with modern electronics, but there's no reason you can't design an electromechanical meter device that has two different mechanisms to tally up &quo

That's not correct. On Reddit, thread archiving (on subreddits that haven't opted to keep threads open forever) is based on time elapsed since the thread was posted, regardless of how much activity there's been. IIRC the inte

Ah, I missed that, but I don't think your comment is precisely correct either. All of the function definitions are declared with OLIVECDEF, which by default is #defined as `static inline`. So if you want to only get a single copy of th

The function declarations and definitions are all commingled in a single file. So if you want to use this library in a project that contains multiple source files, you have to include a duplicate copy of the implementation (including e.

A 65% drop in price over 17 years is "only" about 6% per year. The S&P500 annual dividend yield during 1966-1982 was not much less than 6%, especially during the latter half of that period. If you look at an inflation-adjusted

Right, I'm not saying there's no real trading, just that it's impossible to say how much. Which makes the graphs and anecdotes quoted in the article a bit meaningless, IMO.

If I'm reading that page right, the actual minimum cost (in us-west1) is $65.70/month, because a "node" is $657/month, but if you look elsewhere in the documentation, it says a single "instance" can be as
