For those asking about API keys - While it makes life easy to have API keys, it's quite easy to just use something like Puppeteer[0] to control it via a Lambda etc. [0] https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer
See, I've had the exact opposite experience here in Canada. My family owns a range of Hyundai cars (Elentra -> Sonata, Veolster -> Kona, Santa Fe -> Palisade when it releases) and all those cars have been driven to…
The UN said the same in 1990s. So forgive me if I'm unsympathetic when everyone screams doomsday. There is absolutely nothing you can do today in your personal life that'll matter at a scale to impact the global issue…
idk where you live, but Hyundai has been making a killing selling smaller cars (Elentra et al). I do know that the American car manufacturers are looking to stop making smaller cars though.
Oh man! I love how climate change pushers (not saying I don't believe in Climate Change - I do) love to point at something we can do to matter about CC. I feel even if every. single. person. on the planet works towards…
The internet always has been (and is) whatever we make it to be. I do really mean that - in fact, it's more accessible than ever. For example, personally for me, it means that I can go online and access vast resources…
so I can be the CEO for 12 months for $12? And I have no responsibilities, and I get a better LinkedIn? Count me in!
Thanks for the heads up! I had noticed that almost all of them had the exact same website, emails and billing software. I assumed that it was like how all sites using Wordpress are essentially the same if you take away…

I used lowendbox[0] to find great deals. Then, I automated buying a ton of them into one bill as they generally don't allow you to bulk buy (which lead to a failed bill as it broke their billing. This lead their sales…
I recently found out that I could get a 2 GB / 2 Core machine for ~ $15/yr - and my plan is to buy a bunch of them (~ 150 - 200) to make my own cluster for my personal needs, learning and running some stuff I charge $…
This has to be BS. Ericsson's gear works, Nokia's gear works. Both of those are in use, in prod in Canada right now (for Rogers) as far as I know. And as for it being "cheap" - let's be real - There's a reason why it's…
A few friends of mine work for a company that most would consider terrible. I know for a fact that when ex employees do leave bad reviews, they have a line to call Glassdoor, and get it taken down under promise of…
This is amazing! One of the main reasons I went with Spotify after 3 yrs of Apple Music is because I moved to use Linux as my primary desktop and I didn't have an Apple Music client there. This is making me reconsider…
same here. I really want to learn more about my past and also learn about my DNA (and all there is to learn with that data), but the invasion of privacy by such companies is just unacceptable (hence my refusal to take…
While I get why people are annoyed by that message, I get and understand it. It's super annoying when you are trying to create a desktop app and you get issues (multiple of them) essentially going "Why are you using…
I like TS. I really do. It makes life nice and easy to catch bugs quite quickly and also makes you think about your code quite a bit more (which I guess makes you a bit slower but it's important enough so it's ok). What…
From my understanding - their windows / Mac OS apps is just a shell to their site (with one exception - offline support).
I wish they had an API to integrate with.
I had not thought about that...great points! This is way simpler in that case!
The security issue comes in when you ship the private key - if you are following best practices - won't the private key be different for each domain / managed in a better way?
I'm almost 99% certain that everyone who's this concerned - already has a domain. (or they can get a free domain from something like .tk - as it really does not matter since this is for pure local development). So I…

One of the startups I worked at had 3 frameworks in PHP - all grown, all messed up in all the wrong ways - and that was just the backend. We had a homegrown framework written in JQuery for the frontend as well. never…
