In fact, there's a joke around our campus that the engineering school needs its own fitness center due to the overall buffness of the students.
Well when you put it like that.
But really, it's interesting how this time around my entire Puerto Rican side of the family voted for Trump. All lifelong democrats too. These folks are the core of the country: Teamsters members, paraprofessionals, and mid-tier civil servants. They laughed at the joke about the pile of trash. They left Puerto Rico in the 60s for a reason.
As much as you don't like to admit it, your idea of "divisive" and "racist" and "violent" is based on a subjective standard. It just is. A lot of people disagree or don't find it offensive enough to care. I can't stress this part enough; these are the actual majority of America as indicated yesterday.
This is all to try and point out that this is a great time for the Democrats of America to take a hard look in the mirror and realize that, if this guy is so bad, then how the hell did he win so convincingly? I'll give you a hint but it involves the fact that a lot of these demonized Trump voters are, indeed, very fine people that would give you the shirt of their backs if you needed it.
What did I miss? Does someone have a cached version??
Pretty brilliant, right? Right?
Can confirm.
Yeah, that’s ridiculous. “Cargo culting” is when people imitate processes without understanding the underlying purpose, but reverse proxying is widely used for valid reasons—like security, load balancing, caching, SSL termination, etc. It’s not just mindless mimicry. Dismissing a best practice as “cargo culting” because they don’t understand it is lazy. Just because it’s common doesn’t mean it’s done without purpose. Worst case? You get people following a pretty good practice.
Is it though? My takeaway was that they lament the terrible "journalistic" standards that ESPN embraces.
So to make "false dichotomy" stick, you going to need to assert that if Quicken were breached and this lead to my Schwab account being accessed by a bad actor, I actually am shit out of luck. Will you do that?
Sure, if you just trust some random Chrome extension from a random individual developer, you're absolutely setting yourself up for trouble when they hack your shit. But to wholesale dismiss all apps when there are actual legal protections in place that permit these businesses?
I've worked with Arduino "professional" tools in educational settings, and I realize that real PROS roll their eyes at things like the Edge or Portena. However, they've made their way into some accessible PLC devices that help students learn without needing a Fanuc system.
That said, their support has been really great with the issues I've encountered and they publish a lot of original content and guides.
I'm just a genuinely satisfied customer and wanted to share this, but thanks for the downvotes.
