I used to teach at a boot camp and it can be really good if you choose the right one. In person full time showed the best results vs online and part time. You can do all the same learning on your own but the bootcamp accelerates the learning and a good one will also help you with a job with networking and interview prep.

Space is hard, we make it easier. Come build software used to design and optimize satellite constellation usage.

Built my last road bike from the ground up and I would say electronic shifting is my favorite part. Its more precise and easier to maintain than cable shifting.

All this compatibility warring sucks of course. But there's tons of merit to going digital on certain bike parts.

I created a Strava segment in my neighborhood and started to monitor it. I quickly found a couple cheaters and flagged them. Some I could tell some were just bad GPS data, such as riding a bike in a lake. I usually take mine down if the GPS is totally off. However, some were definitely blatant cheating, such as cycling at 80 mph when the road speed is 40mph.

This is the kind of stuff we're building at https://www.cognitivespace.com/. If you're an engineer or developer and want to build this stuff. Come join us.

Because they own the facility? Otherwise, they have extra cost of going through a government facility with extra regulations and oversight.

I created NeutronSync because I needed to replicate my dot files to multiple machines but wanted something that encrypted the files since these files often contain sensitive info. I'm looking for feedback on the project. If you have some constructive feedback and post here or on the Github discussion board, I'd be happy to extend your free trial.

Of course since the project is open-source, you can always run your own server to safely store your files.

After using CalyxOS for a while, I came up with a method to use stock android and preserve more of your privacy. https://hackernoon.com/have-your-privacy-cake-on-android-and...

Complexity. As a solo founder you need something extremely simple so you focus your time on the business and not dev-ops. Docker often leads you down a dev-ops rabbit hole. With that said, if you pair Docker with an existing deployment service that is container compatible you can probably keep it simple while also setting yourself up for future deployments. The downside of a VM is a lot of times you make it hard for yourself in the future to containerize.

Good thing about my ISP is they have no public IPs. They are too cheap to buy IPs for each home. It's a feature not a bug!

I switched to a personal NAS that has ML categorization: https://www.walmart.com/ip/seort/184909893

I think the Synology NAS do the same.

Typically this is how the death penalty is justified with this clause. Yes very cruel, but we have been doing death penalties through all human history. So not unusual.

I think they were saying that applies to criminal proceedings and not school punishment. Also remember the punishment has to be cruel AND unusual. In 1977 I think it met the cruel but not unusual. However, maybe today it could meet both?

Looks like it's already there: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nofloc/egnfijfbeij...

OK I'm thinking you could write a simple extension that could add the header for every request and disable this everywhere effectively disabling FLoC. I am missing something or would this be really easy to hack and disable?

If it were me, I would start two parallel tasks.

1. Start looking for a new job, so I could be free to report the problems.

2. Start working internally to fix the problem. This sounds like it will have to happen outside normal channels. And while you may have a gatekeeper that will block the acceptance of "the fix", at least if it is ready to go, when the sh* hits the fan you can propose "the fix" and have it implemented faster.

I did #2 once and sat on a software patch for about 3-4 months because politically people in the organization people were trying to block me. The work wasn't officially approved, I decided to do it as an extra effort on my time. However, a new requirement came down which needed the new margin of safety calculated correctly and my patch already did the job. Suddenly my "unapproved" software work was in production within 2 weeks.

Very interesting thoughts. I'm also at a similar point in my career, and my experiences have been really different. I still enjoy my work more than ever. I've never worked in "big tech" that long. However, I do agree that companies become more corporate over time so it's up to you to fight back against these tendencies and make the job you really like. Of course that is harder in large companies but it is still doable to make an enjoyable niche.

I normally like to use Graphene to create a GraphQL API. Then you can use Vue, React, Angular, etc to build your frontend. You'll convert your read views to Queries that are rendered on the frontend. A big part of the change is likely tied up in Django Forms. You can use these forms in Graphene and convert them to mutations. https://docs.graphene-python.org/projects/django/en/latest/m...

Here's a hack. Use the referral header or url tracking parameters to redirect the URL to some place seedy or maybe their competitor. I'm sure they'll change it quick after that.

They've always made it hard to use their devices as webcams. If they had that feature, they would be selling like gangbusters now. Wyze did a firmware update and bam, you have a webcam. It hurts you in the long term to always upsell and partition your features into different levels. That complexity in your business, translates into your code and processes and makes it harder to pivot.

On chrome os screen sharing button is disabled even though it's still chrome.

For me it's Django. It's a mature framework but also gives you plenty of ways to customize and configure for your usecase.

However, another might be the libraries. If you have to implement machine learning or data analysis on your backend, you would probably be better suited with Python. There are also probably other of examples of this too. Python is a more mature language on the backend so I would guess it has a bigger ecosystem there.

I think out of the box JS is more performant. However, you can make Python good enough.

really good! Like the slides feature

Charfield in django is varchar so while there is no performance difference vs textfield, it does put limits on your inputs. This is most likely a good security measure. Unbounded inputs can be found and exploited.

The whole situation reminds me of the opposite of BaseCamp. They got rid of all tiers and went unlimited to simplify the product. And they still rake in the dough. You fundamentally make your business more complex and costly with all this non-sense. The difference is BaseCamp doesn't have VC influence. So the cult of growth and squeezing people for every penny isn't in their DNA.

I think the VC and Silicon Valley influence on Patreon may kill it.

I'm of the opinion that humans crave to solve problems in one form or another. That can be in business, family, etc. In tech we solve physical problems. A mother or father solves the even more complicated problem of how to raise a child. It is a life changing event.

So by being so successful you have conquered many problems. But also taken away a necessary source of well being. It's time for a challenge.

Sounds like you're successful and have many personal outlets such as your business, music, etc. So I don't think wood working or extra academia is the solution. It sounds like you need more social interaction. You don't necessarily have to work to work on a team. Volunteer, join a church, have some kids, join a club (running, soccer, whatever). Get out there and make your life more complex in a good way.

Also, I'm just a developer so take anything I say with a grain of salt.
