Yet. I am pretty sure you could spin up Archlinux / Ubuntu on it. I'd give it a shot if I had the need to replace my Thinkpad.

I wish I could do this, but I do field calls from people not in my contact list often.

Occasionally I stumble on this guy's site and end up going down rabbit holes on ships and submarines. Very fun amount of information.

fuzz testing be damned.

Same here, but with a 1972 BMW. My brake vacuum booster never worked so it is like stomping on a rock. On a cold day you had to feather the throttle, clutch, and brake at the same time until it got warm. I live in a warm climate so it's been tuned to idle well on a hot Texas summer day.

Yea I've seen some pretty sprightly little 90HP cars do autocross really well. Old 2002 BMWs, Porsche 914s, Mini Coopers, and some little Toyota spyders.

I've seen some guys just pull the fuse out for the ECU/PCM on the vehicle as the anti-theft device. The thief will start to crank and crank but never get it started. It should draw attention to them and they'll just grab what they can and leave.

Of course it does.

This sounds like a really interesting story.

sqlite too. It's good.

Unfortunately, in order for me to avoid that hell, I use the mobile app and wish I didn't have to.

I specifically love committing individual lines in a hunk and leaving the rest not staged until I am good and ready to stage them. It's been a great addition to my workflow and makes self reviewing my stuff easier before I go to send a PR.

For older diesels, it is more efficient to leave them running than turning them off and restarting them. And I am talking OLD diesel trucks that have indirect injection systems. They'll smoke a hell of a lot more than just letting them idle.

Still turn them off if you don't need it running. Most modern diesels 2004+ are way more efficient in this regard in consumer vehicles and modern diesel trucks are better than they used to be.

Yes, don't give your main account admin sudo access without a password.

Keep backups on an external file store just in case.

Use a filesystem that has snapshot capabilities.

One tool I remember using a lot of was "DownThemAll". It was great to download quickly using a regex for files.

> Rust and Swift cannot simply speak their native and comfortable tongues – they must instead wrap themselves in a grotesque simulacra of C’s skin and make their flesh undulate in the same ways it does.

Sure they can, you just need to build the mechanism that allows them to.

I never realized that was the rule. I thought you had to go in and wipe the backups regularly.

> Crashing one into the WTC on 9/11 would likely have done substantially less damage.

That's actually an interesting thought. Had the burn not been as constant, would the towers have survived? And then even if they survived, how in the world would it have been repaired?

I have used LuaDNS for quite some time now. I like it.

I wonder if they also go through all of their backups and purge the PII. I would be willing to bet, they don't.

I was responding to the parent above me. Not the article.

IF the car does hit the children even while driving autonomously the driver will be held responsible regardless of overrides. If someone dies, someone is going to jail until the justice system works through it.

Is there something similar for sqlite?

I use http://www.speedcrunch.org/ now. Very handy; quick to boot and use.

The biggest drawback of hydrogen as well as gasoline is the fire / explosion risk. I'm curious how the hydrogen will be stored for transport as the fuel source.

What is the issue with just declaring the license as MIT? I am not a lawyer and don't understand the drawbacks legally about it.

> Hardware is quite cheap.

Joe Armstrong (Erlang) always joked that if you wanted your program to run faster, just wait a few years and the computing power will increase. I found it to be a profound statement about shrugging about optimizing things needlessly unless it was absolutely necessary.

Now we just need to either beat the speed of light, or speed light up. (thanks futurama)

How does one get an orthographic photo that is not artificially made? I know what an orthographic camera does in 3D graphics, but how can you accomplish that in a real life?

This alone is fantastic. I've been looking for an mhtml replacement that worked well across all browsers.
