Great point, thanks for the perspective

Knowledge really is power. I remember the first time I saw the 340 it gave me an uncomfortable feeling nearing dread. What horrible secrets did those symbols hide? Turns out it's just some mad ramblings that are pretty underwhelming, a

I think the best we can do is lead by example in the short term, and in the long term investigate the failure of education systems that bring this about

it's explained by the crackers in a YouTube video. It's a pretty basic substitution encoding, except one letter of the alphabet can be encoded by a variety of symbols. It was difficult to solve because the cypher has three differe

Thanks, yes that's exactly what it is then. In order to give external access to my devices (e.g. my NAS) I have to forward ports from their router to my router, and from my router to the device. So, definitely double NAT. Amusingly the

Do you find it difficult to believe many of those calls actually are issues with the AT&T network?

this is really where my limited knowledge of networking shows. I'm not entirely sure but I want to say both or double nat. There's two networks, but my router thinks theirs is a modem and is connected via the "Internet"

Yes exactly. Their router has a LAN with my router as the only other device, which it's bridged with, and then my router has the true home LAN. A weird side effect of this is that I'm not using the 192.168.x.x range like usual (be

I think what this boils down to is that the volume of vehicle-related injury/death will decrease, and the few remaining cases will be really strange and unlikely to have occurred with human drivers.

The obnoxious thing to me is the hubris that must be behind this. Either they considered it and decided they would never encounter a system error like this and refused to implement an escalation route, or they never even considered it. Or p

I agree with you that sometimes downvoting can come across as pretty irrational/emotional, and like any community HN has its echo chamber qualities. However in my time here I'd say that's the exception, not the rule. The majo

sub note: before anyone accuses this of being a growing conspiracy, I want to be transparent that I just flagged this thread and explain why. The reason why is that it seems thoroughly answered, and so I just want us to avoid belabored dram

Maybe the article was flagged after the author deleted it from Substack? Flagging an article just removes it from the front page, and since the link is broken (as commenters complained in the thread) then flagging it makes sense. Edit: th

Your criticism is a little bit ironic, but despite that and the downvotes I think you make a fair point, it could come across harsh and probably not very useful for persuasion

If wood burning stoves are illegal to install on private property away from cities, that's something I would agree is a problem. As far as I know though it is legal.

Give me a break. Humans have not used natural gas for millennia to cook. If this was truly about sticking to your roots, you'd be cooking over a woodburning stove and this wouldn't be an argument. But you're not, because th

If they're going to compare the two, at least use the React functional hooks pattern. They're comparing Stencil to the (basically) obsolete OO components pattern.

Probably that you're putting effort / brain power into it. I'd be surprised if you could do that without thinking, just letting your fingers move "randomly"

There's always a bigger fish. Some people think I'm smart because I can make an app, but I'm just a mere mortal code monkey compared to these true geniuses

It is very important to accept who you are, and you can simultaneously accept who you are capable of becoming because that is equally who you are. For example, if you feel deep inside that you want to be an athlete, well that's a part

This doesn't surprise me, the governor of Hawaii is very big on business and growth, and has been working very hard to turn Honolulu into a small silicon valley. I don't think this is necessarily the right way to do it though. Rem

I'm not 100% certain but I think often times people who are the biggest assholes are usually that way precisely because they're afraid of being themselves

> Chris’s pay was garnished at 15% from 2004-2011, and at 25% from 2011 on. He paid, but didn’t gain ground, thanks to another painful quirk of the system, involving the order of obligation. This sounds like an unbelievable living hell,

I'm curious to hear more about the airline race to the bottom you're talking about. I've been flying once or twice a year for the last 7 years or so, and it's all pretty much been the same except perhaps a lot more addon

From what they said above, it sounds like that's exactly the kind of thing it would catch unless you consistently wrote "ture" and "flase" many times in the same document

Small towns make up about 50% of the population in the US. Couple that with the fact that small towns also typically have lower income households which are more likely to buy lottery tickets, and you end up with basically every winner being
