There’s little value in software and no value in annual recurring subscriptions to people. If you solve a large enough problem that a person can use to make themselves money, then you can become an overhead cost of doing business. My household has zero recurring subscriptions now.

Two things jump out at me also 1. The first thing I see is “it’s free”. Then further down the page buy credits. I really don’t want to buy credits in your walled garden that I don’t understand yet. But what the heck I’ll try, next click my only option is to continue with google. Nah I’m not looking to login to a completely unknown product with my google account credentials.

It feels painful on top of I don’t know what I’m buying or why I’d buy it. It’s a canva clone? Or ?


Huh A single prefix is easier on the router than a dozen.. I should hope so? Isn’t this kind of like saying the grade 1 math test is easier than the grade 12 math test ?


The thing is that the abundance of IPv6 addresses enables fewer prefixes to be used, by allowing addresses to be allocated in much larger chunks.

For instance, Comcast (AS 7922) owns about 2^26 IPv4 addresses, distributed across 149 different prefixes. Almost all of these prefixes are non-contiguous with each other, so they each require separate routing table entries. Comcast can't consolidate those routes without swapping IP address blocks with other networks, and it can't grow its address space without acquiring new small blocks. (Since no more large blocks are available, as this article discusses.)

In contrast, Comcast owns about 2^109 IPv6 addresses, which are covered by just 5 prefixes (two big ones of 2^108 each, and three smaller ones). It can freely subdivide its own networks within those prefixes, without ever running out of addresses, and without having to announce new routes.



It’s fairly easy to decrease susceptibility to this attack. #1 run your own node #2 monitor the nodes you are connected to with “sync_info” #3 ban nodes that aren’t up to current block height, strange port connections, and connections from typical spy IP addresses. There could still be a spy node connected when you send your transaction but it won’t have a very high probability of originating from any particular place


My grandfather built that railway in a supervisor capacity in Labrador. My dad was born in sept illes because of it. It was once very important but now a footnote. It moved iron ore in the 60s / 70s


We’re Gsuite because it happened before I joined the org and it’s just too much of a pain to switch and get everyone re trained off of google apps

Zoho has a lot of nice features and seems less evil. The ticket tracking email system is a really nice feature


Charging at home is part of the problem. They need to separately meter power for cars and increase the rate and add a road maintenance tax based on vehicle weight.


My 5950 didn’t like liquid cooling and lives very well with air cooling :)


H-1B visas should not be given to software devs. They can work from anywhere with just a laptop and starlink.


And yet they are the primary recipients [0]

If there is an American than can do the job then absolutely not the worker should NOT get a green card


I think you need some context here, most of the time, these folks have already gone through the PERM process (at least the legitimate ones, ignoring the fraud for a second), and gotten to the next step, but USCIS will reset them back if they switch jobs. If the candidate is from India, they'll probably do this multiple times in their career because the green card wait time is very long for them. I have a colleague who's not from India, and they got through the process and even got their citizenship in 6 years, for Indians, it'll take 12 years on average to go from finishing the PERM and getting a green card (let alone applying for citizenship, which would need 3 more years)
