- Comment on I can't pay rent because devs just don't care 2 hours ago:
I’m also a developer and I’m really big on optimizing database queries and having the right data indexed. When I review others’ code I’m being “nitpicky” when I point out that index is missing. When it comes to query optimization I’m often told “well there’s plenty of memory.”
- Comment on Why is everyone using Tailscale? 2 hours ago:
I prefer nginx to Caddy myself for reverse proxies. As far as VPN technologies go, Tailscale and WireGuard are where it’s at.
Not sure why we’re comparing Caddy and Tailscale though.
- Comment on Top 19 'Truly Superwealthy' US Families Grew $1 Trillion Richer Last Year: Analysis 2 hours ago:
It’s always jarring to me just how ugly the “superwealthy” are. It’s like their blatant greed and disregard for others can’t be hidden however hard they might try.

I hope this is actually effective. I’m not well-versed in Brazilian politics but the destruction of the Amazon year after year due to animal agriculture has been on my radar for a long time.

- Comment on Unfortunately happens too often I think 19 hours ago:
I have two chihuahuas so I take them on three walks per day, but just two of those walks are what I call “medium” walks for them, it’s a few a big blocks around the neighborhood.
What you reminded me of is when I do my 3+ mi walks, I bring one of them in a shoulder sling carrier for dogs. They can’t walk that far every day due to their size but they still absolutely love the adventure.
- Comment on is walking away the best way to deal with a work clique? 19 hours ago:
Yeah, the language here seems to fall outside what you or I think of as a clique. To me it essentially just means a group of people but clearly there has to be some other definition.

Such an original, Reddit-style one liner. 😒

And all the photos look like shit because they’ve been recompressed in JPEG, and all the metadata is just gone.

- Comment on MIT engineers create 'spaghetti' style metamaterial that could enable stretchy computer chips that are almost indestructible 4 days ago:
I don’t know why but this makes me picture some dusty old-school newsroom with that one guy in all the TV shows smoking a cigar acting kind of like an asshole, and he looks up from the rough draft and while pointing at it with the cigar half-yells “have ChatGPT take a crack at it, maybe it’ll spice things up!”

OMG I’m not the only person in the planet that found this photo fucking weird. My wife and I have stickers (iOS) of these two from this photo.
What a bunch of creeps.
- Comment on Blue Shield of California shared the private health data of millions with Google for years 5 days ago:
But you can do all that without selling out your users to third parties.
- Comment on Blue Shield of California shared the private health data of millions with Google for years 5 days ago:
As a web developer that blocks all this shit, that’s the line I always use. I would just use first-party analytics from the same domain the website is hosted from. The added bonus is that people like me wouldn’t even be able to block it without blocking the entire website (at least with DNS).
- Comment on Blue Shield of California shared the private health data of millions with Google for years 5 days ago:
This is why I’m such a cunt about blocking this stuff at the DNS and/or IP level. Google Analytics is essentially everywhere including IRS web pages with your Social Security number in the DOM.

You don’t fucking know me bro. I’m not privileged in the least, the most I’ve borrowed from my parents is $20 and I worked for minimum wage all throughout my 20s.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
It’s crazy because I’m liberal as fuck, totally understand how cursed housing is but I still can’t take this as sarcasm.
I’m fully living on my own despite a horrible public school system, no college education, etc. Hell, I moved to Los Angeles with nothing but a backpack and $800 and no high paying job experience.
At some point you have to figure out your life and move on; sitting around and blaming everyone else for your problems won’t get you anything.

For that price I might as well get a used desktop or another mini PC.
- Comment on Synology Lost the Plot with Hard Drive Locking Move - ServeTheHome 1 week ago:
It does matter to me and I live in an area with frequent power outages. Unfortunately I didn’t check this out before purchasing so I’m pretty annoyed by this behavior.

- Comment on Synology Lost the Plot with Hard Drive Locking Move - ServeTheHome 1 week ago:
That is sad to see. I’ve moved on to Raspberry Pi + hard disk enclosure (with incredible performance) but it’s still upsetting to see Synology go this route.

I blocked outgoing ports 53 and 853 (other than to my resolver) due to this; unfortunately this doesn’t help with DoH.
But one of my favorite things is that you can block Apple News ads by blocking
doh.apple.com: that’s right, the app gets the IP address of the DoH server using the current nameserver before switching to that of the DNS record. 😆 - Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately? 2 weeks ago:
