Is it open source? If not, why choose the name “OpenNode”?

NYC would be cool!

“I played with fire and got burnt.”

I agree strongly with this. I would ditch my iPhone in a heartbeat for an open source alternative.

It seems like an alternative might be something along the lines of this, just a rough sketch

- Alice wants Bob to notify her about something

- Bob advertises an email address specific to that something

- Alice creates a disposable email address and requests that Bob notify her about that something at that disposable email address

- Alice only accepts emails to that address from Bob's something-specific email

- Once Alice receives an email from Bob's something-specific email she discards the disposable email

The author of the article researches far right extremism and has been targeted by certain groups in the past IIRC, I read this part as a concern about physical safety, but this is just my speculation.

I was fortunate enough to take this course with Ted Shifrin at UGA, he is an incredible professor (now retired), and it was one of my favorite courses when I was in undergrad.

I strongly disagree with this. “Computers” would have not been replaced with the machines that replaced them if those machines routinely produced incorrect results.

One could argue that for applications where correctness is not critical my position does not apply, however this is not the analogy that the article is making.

My fear is that if I were to start doing this, I would stop engaging in the difficult aspects of building something. And I think the skills I have now would atrophy.

Then you're going to have a great time during your PhD, good luck and have fun!

I’m looking into migrating to FreshRSS from omnivore now.

Does [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/165nnk6/comment...) solve the email ingestion issue for you?

One of my favorite parts of my education was going through E&M to arrive at the beauty of Maxwell's Equations.

I later found out that you can squeeze even more beauty out of them by boiling them down even further using differential geometry.

The link to his Google Scholar page from search results 404’s for me at the moment, however a recent copy is available here

I use this for a set of applications that I self host that I give my friends access to. I use it as a quick and easy place to dump a couple links, and I can put it behind a reverse proxy.

Can you elaborate on why you think it’s trivial?

Yeah all the links they reference in the beginning are negative towards Google too

I’m heartbroken, I would love a .exe domain

But I did fall for it..

Here's a short writeup of one of my favorite projects so far. I've not included a picture for privacy reasons (sorry if the title is misleading).
