I like where this is coming from but I'm afraid it's totally backwards. Apologies if coming off as unfriendly. I picked a spot on the map and no store within 25 blocks in any direction has any deals. That's fine, and…
The distinction they're drawing isn't WLAN vs LAN but WAN vs LAN. Remember that in the peak days of the LAN party it was an alternative to gaming on dial-up or DSL - even if you had a good connection it was unlikely the…
Remember that with the dorita980[1] project and similar you can liberate roombas from their cloud. I run mine with a ready made docker container. [1] https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980
Fastmail has had it for a while.
It's worth noting that the pyramids were more ancient to Julius Caesar than Caesar is to us by a significant margin.
The tension this article writes about can be expressed to a tech audience as a compression problem. Dollar General wins out on low prices - essentially compressing their value prop onto a single dimension, prices. They…
Not cartooning exactly, but there is Boterismo - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_Botero
One thing I don't see anyone mentioning here is that OpenWRT allows you to configure your router as code via config files in /etc/. If you straddle the worlds of preferring a "normal" router to a custom built box but…
My Roomba is on a VLAN without internet access and is controlled via rest980[1] running in a container. It has a basic but functional web interface. Valentudo is probably nicer but I opted to trade that for the broad…
I think this was wry humor.
I did an exhaustive search scraping all of the supported Lineage OS devices to find a good tradeoff between modernity and a handset that isn't giant, resulting in my Zenfone 8. I'm not ready to upgrade yet but I'm very…
One great benefit that she doesn't touch on is LaTeX makes for a great on-ramp to generating resumes programmatically. I like to use different emails for different services (service@mydomain.com), especially when data…
They have limitations, but I drive my second external display from my 2020 M1 MBP using a usb DisplayLink adapter plugged into my TB3 dock. DisplayLink is the chipset/driver but there are several manufacturers. You may…
"So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness…
Immensely powerful, especially in concert with tidy data [0]. It's really remarkable how having a 'language' for the relationship between concepts can allow for so much flexibility. As a python user, I use the…
It keeps configuration in files in a *nix-esque file system, which allows me to keep router config and changes in git.
I think in the last decade or so he certainly learned how to end (REAMDE had like 90 pages of climax) but I'm not sure the reader is actually better off for it. Seveneves denouement is almost its own book with its own…
I learned handwriting in schools (early 90s) and like many it turned into absolute chicken scratch by high school as with many. Somewhere between high school and college I decided it was worth fixing and after a few…
You might be thinking of the "genetically enhanced" Uruk Hai orcs created by Saruman.
I once worked as a lowly front line help desk tech I and snuck around getting the MAC addresses of all my coworkers so I could specifically target them with this without affecting the broader office. Someone logged it…

No suggestions for Google Voice replacement :/
One party rule? The mayor before Deblasio (D) was Bloomberg (R)?
When I was in university IT ~2008 our main concern was people accidentally serving their own DCHP onto the network and colliding with ours, generally by plugging in a router LAN port out. I could imagine a decree with…
