As someone who got top grades in science classes, and a follower of science news for decades, I’ve never heard of temperature being a risk factor for cancer. That said, it does make sense. Heat can cause damage to cells…
Looking at the location of Loudoun County, one could very easily make substantive arguments on why its probably a special case that very easily explains why there a both many data centers and also why it’s a rich area.…
It’s still scanning (or at least listening to) all the other devices on your local network, like your phones, PCs, etc. It collects an inventory and if it ever happens to get Internet access, uploads that data.
They weren’t using RHEL. The title would be more accurate if it said “RHEL-based Linux”. They used their own build called Scientific Linux for a long time, then switch to CentOS. Then Oracle started aggressively…
“You _will_ lose them”, as in, somehow Immich will do something to lose them (like making a mistake in a dedupe process which deletes the wrong things), or are you just saying you also need to keep backups?
It seems like we’re getting close, if not already there, to needing an official organization for this (i.e. the Turing Police).
Planet Money has a good episode on this: https://one.npr.org/i/nx-s1-5847893:nx-s1-mx-5847893-1
I think you’re responding to the general idea of a relational database, not Postgres, and definitely not what’s in the article (DR;CA). Postgres has built in data types and functions that allows it to work with…
When the audit happens, the auditors also consider if the policy meets the control objectives. If it doesn’t, you’re going to fail.
Glad to see fwknop mentioned. Back when the idea of port knocking emerged, there was a lot of criticism about it. Then this came out, and not many seemed to notice. This was before WireGuard and Tailscale, so the main…
If checking the bag is free, everyone would do it, leaving the overhead space empty. That overhead space is flying to the destination anyway, so it’s better to make sure it’s full. The. If there’s free space in the hold…
I would recommend reconsidering that strategy; it’s not sustainable for your entire working lifetime. There WILL come a point where you cannot maintain the pace of being “so good” that the works speaks for itself. When…
Those people “floating about” were doing something: building relationships with others who could promote them. Something that’s very difficult for hard workers to do, because they’re busy actually…working.
eBPF started as a network tool, but (according to the creators of it) targeting the network was just a ploy to get a foot in the door so they could start expanding it to other things. They didn’t think the idea would be…
LocalSend has been working great for me across different types of devices.
One of the biggest concerns I have with phone scams is that the people most vulnerable are the elderly, and they don’t have the knowledge on how to block these calls (if a technical solution is the only option). And…
In these (and I think many cases), the one star is being used to get the developer’s attention more than anything else. I, and I think most people, think of most apps as being published by a company that’s actively…
Netflix had “everything” because it was the first (commercially successful) mover on streaming, and as a result it was pretty much the only game in town for a long time. Every other producer HAD to be on Netflix if they…
Maps apps see the streets that don’t have cars on them (the same ones closed for a festival) as good routes to send vehicles because there’s currently no vehicles using them. It keeps trying to route people there and…
They say this is also sent with Windows Update checks, which happen frequently per day, and I think also when you initially connect to a network, so that’s a clear way they could tie the ID back to any IP address you’re…
Which is fine. Burn your tokens (with all the carbon emissions they generate in data centers) doing more involved tasks like that. Don’t waste it on silly, easy things like simple macros, search/replace, etc. AI doesn’t…
If the original source is 44.1KHz, and this codec prefers 48KHz, is there an issue up-sampling to 48KHz before doing the AAC encode? I think that's really the question with this work: up-sampling to 48k, not…
Smart TVs are always monitoring what you’re watching by taking screenshots and processing them. This is a known thing for at least several years now. The only safe way to use a smart TV is to never connect it to the…
My setup is: dark mode, color filters tint red, brightness 0, and reduce white point. It’s almost completely unusable in regular lit rooms, but nice in complete darkness (mostly apps like Instapaper). The main issue I…
I think a lot of developers (e.g. the HN crowd) aren’t aware that pretty much all non-IT businesses people, from receptionists to the C-suite, really do think that what IT people do is take their (business people’s)…
