Note that he was pretty young and his only "law enforcement" experience was from working in the Secret Service. Presumably all of his training and experience was for things involving VIP protection activities. It shouldn't be

That's the thing. There are a lot of examples of stuff out there that does this, some of which are probably already on the web. If you just wanted the results or a working thingy with no effort, you can use someone else's or clone

I would imagine that the authorities won't let you try to drive out if your vehicle doesn't look like it can handle traveling miles through deep mud. If nothing else, then because they'd then be obligated to rescue you when y

It's probably impossible to generalize among all public schools. Some are and some aren't to various degrees depending on a thousand factors. The problem is more like, how do you realize if a particular public school class is bad

They thought it was the situation. It was a mistake, which should have been fixed easily, but they had no way to get in touch with the owner.

I think it'd be better with the clickbait simply cut out: "A tale about how Ben Franklin invented the US"

Yeah it smells to me like the OP/owner never got the title, didn't follow up on why he hadn't gotten the title yet, and didn't give Tesla a working way to contact him. So it's a relatively minor paperwork screwup wh

I don't think so. What people want is a way to create some words, audio, pictures, video, etc and let people see it. The vast majority of people don't care at all about exactly what technological choices are used to make that happ

This reminds me of the sci-fi aphorism that any space drive powerful enough to be interesting doubles as a weapon of mass destruction. Similarly, so is anything powerful enough to deflect an asteroid which is a danger to the Earth. So it&#x

Huh never mind before it actually works fine at home, must have been a pesky work network filter against it for some reason. I've never seen our work filters do that before though.

That site appears to be completely down, can't even find much of anything under archive.org.

I'm pretty sympathetic to this. I want to like the idea of Gemini, but it currently doesn't have, and is difficult to impossible to build, anything to really draw users away from the conventional web. I think the fundamental idea

It's pretty clear that the war was planned under the assumption that they'd just march straight into Kiev, maybe shoot a few hardcases, scare the rest with how awesome they were, and basically be welcomed as liberators by most. Wh

Also on "to be fair", JS libs have a nasty habit of either completely redoing the API, or dropping maintenance entirely and encouraging everyone to switch to the new hotness which also has a completely different API, every 6 month

I wouldn't be surprised if the actual progression went like: Senior engineers end up with a moderately complex API for various bureaucratic reasons and don't have time to document it well -> Some junior engineer trying to be he

Anecdotally, enforcement is a joke for cocaine too. I know several people who use it recreationally, sometimes to slightly disturbing excess, and none have ever been in any legal trouble for it.

Sibling is snarky but correct. I don't think your situation has anything to do with what I described. It may still be linux, but it strikes me like saying that the maintenance manual is different between a sports car and a dump truck.

I actually disagree with most of this. I think that, for servers, it's best to stay as close to the "cattle, not pets" model as reasonably possible. Servers should be set up and maintained with automated tooling and rarely co

Statistics are not a good indicator either because most events never get recorded. Nobody keeps statistics on how often cyclists whiz within inches of pedestrians on the sidewalk, scrape by people, or knock people over but they get right ba

This is the exact opposite of what the article is saying. When somebody is deciding whether to walk or drive to their destination, they don't pull up a scientific journal and consult the latest studies, they think about whether it feel

IMO AWS S3 works fine for this: * Create a S3 bucket and enable versioning * Create a new user and give it only s3:PutObject on your new bucket * Create an auth keypair for that user and put it on your server Now any server compromise that

I pretty much agree. I'd only add that container stuff seems to work fine for me, including everything I've tried with docker and docker-compose, and I haven't felt the need to do anything on a remote instance. The only thing

I'm typing this on a Asus Spin 713. IMO, works great both for web browsing and other consumer-level tasks and for development and system administration. The Linux container image gives me a full command line, and pretty much everything

FWIW, Telegram actually handles this pretty well. You just have to have loged in on another device while you still have your phone. You can use that other device to deauth your lost or deactivated phone and auth new logins on other devices.

I kind of enjoy these stories since I'm in the inverse situation. I have a firstlast@gmail.com address with my real name, which is pretty unique. I feel a bit annoyed and paranoid sometimes that, since my name is unusual, a Google sear

My setup used to be pretty similar. A few changes I've made over the last few years: Moved to Ansible playbooks for all server config, checked into the same Git repo as the code for the project. Sure, I can set it up by hand fine, but

I agree that the response is a bit snarky and escalates the situation. However, unpaid open-source project maintainers aren't obligated to be scrupulously polite at all times no matter what. If you want professional corporate interacti

How is it a fair comparison to make the automobile have only one person but the rail car completely full? Rail cars are very rarely anywhere near full. Infact, they have to be run nearly empty most of the time in order to have a schedule go

I wonder what happens when people start taking these things into mosh pits. I would also think it's pretty easy to dismiss on the 911 operator side. Hey reported car crash. Oh wait, the location is in the middle of a dance club. Guess
