7demons··on What is money, anyway?
In old times people had no money, they exchanged goods (barter). So money is some sort of substitute, a promise to do the job for the bought goods/services.
7demons··on Self Hosted Email vs. Gmail
Be very careful when recommending Racknerd. Owner of that hosting company was involved in Alpharacks exit scam. Google properly before signup, don't be blinded by the price of service.
7demons··on Dura is a background process that watches your Git repositories
"Dura" in Russian language is "idiot". Specifically female idiot. Is it really hard for developers to enter word in google before naming application? This is ridiculous.
7demons··on PayPal raises fees for most domestic transaction types to 3.49% + $0.49
PayPal is going cPanel route. It should be replaced and never look back. Those, who can't control their greed are doomed to see the void of ignorance.
7demons··on No One Ever Saw the Snow Cruiser Again (2019)
Those are vehicles! Karkovs helped a lot to explore not only cold regions.
7demons··on ProtonMail deletes 'we don't log your IP' from website after activist arrested
I guess ProtonVPN also is not an exception to such "undeniable" requests. Bad day for company who bank on "no log" policy. Their marketing division will have a ton of work to fix reputation :)
7demons··on WHMCS ends support for owned licenses, effective immediately
This news is a shakedown for entire web hosting industry. Most small to medium companies are running this software. They are effectively destroying it by increasing prices...
7demons··on The Amateur Tramp – A Walk of Ten Thousand Miles Around Australia
Good for him. Lucky guy by not dying to nature.
7demons··on Compound found in the hallucinogenic tea ayahuasca can grow new brain cells
Some of the depression engulfed people already on the edge to hell. They are willing to take a risk.
7demons··on Someone attacked our company
Advantage comes with those who attack, not defend. Attackers will always find new ways to attack and eventually break-in. Be ready for this. As history shows, crackers (DDoS'ers) always win if the price for your head is high enough (money or fame).
7demons··on Ask HN: Realistic space colonization video game
Very few people want realism in fantasy, because it is too limited. You play game, because you want to experience something you can't see, do or imagine your-self in. Real life is boring :)
7demons··on Analysis of Today's CenturyLink/Level(3) Outage
That technician who pushed this rule... Man, what a story he will have to tell to his grandchild.
7demons··on PHP Built-In Web Server
Time to take some medication maybe? Such hatred against programming language is not normal.
7demons··on Dealing with Insomnia
Become parent and your insomnia would be gone in a few weeks. You would be exhausted mentally and physically. Drained out. I remember my child when she was 1 - 2 years old. Jesus Christ... I slept wherever I could. In car, even in toilet at work.
7demons··on Intel finally lost Apple because Skylake QA 'was abnormally bad'
Apple can do whatever they want. They are big enough.
7demons··on Jim Keller Resigns from Intel, Effective Immediately
Resignations without a clear reason may indicate health problems. Probably cancer, at his age it is most common health issue. Best of luck to him.
