   My IT department still uses a home-grown work ticketing system built in Access 97. The leadership in the department built it custom to their wants in the 90s and, just like you, it's feature-complete-ish. Pain in the butt for newer emp

   Ironically, the company that bought µTorrent was BitTorrent, Inc[1]. They're the geniuses also responsible for forking IPFS, renaming it to "BTFS", and not acknowledging IPFS as an upstream in any way[2]. 1. https:/&#x2

   I've always been surprised by privacy.com's business model. Do they really make enough money from those small credit card processing fees to stay afloat, or are they coasting on investor money?

    Who cares? For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP acco

    Fantastic service, thanks for your work on it! I always love seeing government weather data democratized and more accessible. Would it be helpful to have a personal weather station data network contributing to your service as well?
