Tried to donate multiple times but I keep getting an error "donation processing failed" :/ Tried twice on mobile using Google Pay, then on desktop using a credit card, then again with uBlock origin disabled...

It's easy. You can host a Docker registry yourself (e.g. Harbor or Portus), or use a managed one, like Google Cloud Registry if you use GCP / GKE. To publish an image to your own registry, you just need to pull from Docker Hub, re-tag the image, and push to your own repo. It's three commands. You can add some automated and/or manual steps to check the images for security flaws before publishing them.

Wasn't challenge/response / SRP authentication debunked ?

Because it's interesting to discuss the impact of those outages and the reasons for them, to learn from those experiences.

I was interested too so started googling.

It was probably a comment by mikekchar: https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=mikekchar

According to this response by CaptainZapp (the GP) on one of his comments ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17004877 ):

  Hi Mike,
  About six month ago you helped me through the "minefield" of eating as a gajin in Japan.
  Let's call it a rousing success (it helps if you even like natto, but I digress).
  Let me state for the record that your posts are shear awesomeness in contents and the amount of information provided.
  Thanks!"

I couldn't find the original comment by "mikekchar", but when you google "site:news.ycombinator.com mikekchar japan" you find many interesting comments about Japan.

Their code explicitly depended on the wording of exception messages because they were using a dynamic language. Java is a typed language, where we can match on exception types:

  if (ex instanceof NullPointerException)
  catch (NullPointerException ex) {

It is therefore rare for Java programmers to match on exception messages (it would be a mistake).

I disagree with it, but the concept of "imputed rent" and "Home-Ownership Bias" is similar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imputed_rent

> "More formally, in owner-occupancy, the landlord–tenant relationship is short-circuited. Consider a model: two people, A and B, each of whom owns property. If A lives in B's property, and B lives in A's, two financial transactions take place: each pays rent to the other. But if A and B are both owner-occupiers, no money changes hands even though the same economic relationships exists; there are still two owners and two occupiers, but the transactions between them no longer go through the market. The amount that would have changed hands had the owner and occupier been different persons is the imputed rent."

> "The government loses the opportunity to tax the transaction. Sometimes, governments have attempted to tax the imputed rent (Schedule A of United Kingdom's income tax used to do that), but it tends to be unpopular. Some countries still tax the imputed rent, such as Iceland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Switzerland. The absence of taxes on imputed rents is also referred to as Home-Ownership Bias."

I think that's what he meant by "App Review":

"App Review - We review all apps and app updates submitted to the App Store in an effort to determine whether they are reliable, perform as expected, and are free of offensive material."

I'm actually one of those paranoid doofus. I have a few 2 TB backup hard drives encrypted with Truecrypt (before the Truecrypt devs decided to abandon the project), and I can't remember the password...

I tried to brute-force it using John The Ripper, but after a few hours trying to configure it with a dictionary, I just gave up. I'll need to get back to it some day !

I recently learned that the parisian subway and suburban trains contain a lot of particulate pollution (e.g. PM10), caused by braking (electrical brakes would reduce this) and rail grinding (maintenance done to reduce squealing in curves). The small particulate pollution is actually worse than what you find in traffic jams in the city center...

I'm looking into buying an anti-pollution mask. It will probably look weird, since nobody wears masks there... People will probably think I'm sick or something. Maybe I should buy some techwear clothing to complete the "goth-ninja" look, but I'm not sure how that will fly at work.

I have an air purifier at home since 3 years (Philips AC4072/11). I think it's a good investment, since I spend around 50% of the time at home. It also seems to have helped with my allergies, but that might be placebo.

Of course, but 500€/day is what you'd get in Paris as a Java developer with 3-4 years of experience. Which amounts to 10000€/month (counting 20 days).

The cost of an helicopter seems like an obvious reason.

Or you could listen to "real" audiobooks, narrated by professionals. A great way to use the time while running / biking / working out / doing chores.

I use [Pinboard](https://pinboard.in/) to bookmark interesting pages. It archives a copy of the page for private use, which I can access later if the page is deleted.

I would also be in the market for a new Macbook Pro, but their touch bar is dissuading me... The other thing I'm waiting for is 32 GB of RAM.

I guess I'll keep using my 15" MBP (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) for now... If it breaks before they fix their MBP lineup, I'll see if I can buy a 2015 version ( https://marco.org/2017/11/14/best-laptop-ever ). Or I'll look at Thinkpads.

I had the same issue. I said "yes", then went in the settings and disabled it. I wasn't asked again.

We have a few Amazon Lockers in Paris and the suburbs. It's awesome. A lot better than the usual "Relais Colis".

Just flash the barcode from the email, and it opens the appropriate locker. It even lets you open multiple ones with a single barcode if you received multiple packages the same day.

This also applies to some open source projects, like Apache Karaf ( http://karaf.apache.org/ ):

Upgrade to the Enterprise class platform.

Karaf provides dual polymorphic container and application bootstrapping paradigms to the Enterprise. Focus on your business code and application, Karaf deals with the rest

Just use Hushme and look like Bane /s

The issue with Ramadan is that they eat at night. It is indeed intermittent fasting, but it is not as good as intermittent fasting where you eat during the day, because eating is related to peripheral oscillators of our circadian rhythm.

I heard about that a few weeks ago while listening to this podcast by Dr. Rhonda Patrick: http://tim.blog/2017/05/04/smart-drugs-fasting-and-fat-loss/

For other ESL speakers wondering why they didn't find much when searching for "rothstein": his name is "Rod Rosenstein".

It's semi-relevant to your question, but if you want to learn more about Git internals, I recommend the last chapter of the "Pro Git" book, which is free:

Thanks for mentioning your Streisand server. I had no idea this existed. This is amazing!

Is there a way to order a bundle with printed copies of multiple back-issues? Or do I have to buy them one-by-one on Magcloud for 9$ each?

I have the first 16 issues, which I bought all at once a few years ago, to lower shipping costs (I live in Europe).

I really liked Hacker Monthly and I'd love to have the other issues in a printed form :)

Stumbled upon this post on Reddit. Interesting account. Too bad it didn't get traction here.

How did you listen to it? Are you using some text-to-speech software? I didn't find a link to download an audio version of the article.

Reminds me of a project I stumbled upon while researching responsive table patterns a few months ago: https://github.com/filamentgroup/tablesaw

Demo: http://filamentgroup.github.io/tablesaw/demo/stack.html

We didn't have the time to implement this in our app, but it looked great. I'd like to see how easy it is to integrate to use Bootstrap styles.

I reported two fake profiles* a few weeks ago, but Facebook did nothing to remove them. I guess fake profiles boost the "user" count for FB :)

*: profiles adding 100 "friends" the first day, using pictures from obscure russian models (which can be found using Google image search)...
