Email deliverability was part of my job for around 8 years. Providers will absolutely send you a bounce message (via the return path email) if an inbox does not exist. Or even if it is full.

The messaging is not standard so you have to do all sorts of special case parsing because each provider can give a different message. And ignoring these messages will hurt your ability to deliver email.

So if your plan is to hide your address from people, again, I don't see the point.
Maybe add an about section on why you created this, who you are, and why we should trust you with our phone number ?

I learned using the TICK stack and Grafana.

Originally I wanted to see some Covid data with my own visualization, was thinking on D3 first.

Ended up with full TICK stack and Grafana, monitoring all devices I have at home and setting up alerts for all kind of silly stuff. Usefulness is questionable, but I learned a lot.

This doesn't work so well when you a) disallow tracking cookies and b) don't use your ISP's DNS servers.

I used to work directly with these big ISPs, and I can assure you they aren't very sophisticated. Even if they log every IP you send a packet to, and they know every domain that points to each of those IPs, they can't know exactly what you requested or which particular website you visited provided these websites use HTTPS.

Most people describe Linux as a much safer OS even though windows puts more restrictions on running code from the internet (to the extent of marking downloaded files as potentially dangerous and asking if you really want to execute them). I would totally understand if HTTP(not s) was used by default at any point, but by writing a URI starting with `http://` into the file, the programmer is actively telling the program to download that file and use HTTP for that. Secure by default doesn't mean preventing the programmer from doing insecure things.

What is the reason for making a JavaScript runtime based on browser APIs that cannot also be a browser?

Or in other words, wouldn't it have been easier and better to make an optionally headless version of the Servo browser with additional native APIs and some enhancements like being able to run JavaScript directly in addition to HTML?

The choice made means that Deno can't be used, at least directly, to make desktop applications, and also doesn't have all the features that browsers have for free, like multiprocess and multiple sandboxes, network traffic inspector, local storage, GPU compute, etc.

A blockchain to amplify common good, since no one like this idea
The project is based on 2 essential mechanisms.
I. Making an alternative economy on top of current society believes and pillars, which has not current economy’s flaws, in a practical and feasible manner, and regarding to changing radically the economy in long run. Progressive and gradually.
II. Implementing a game theory that encourage/facilitate more and more people to participate, and the methodology in which even evils compelled to do the good job.

Please consider that:
I. For the sake of brevity I wrote the rough idea, I’ll post complete proposal in different chapters.
II. This idea is not a restricted & closed recipe. It is a pure booting infrastructure, to build a huge freedom building on top of it.
Here are some links of semi finalized chapters of proposal. Probably you are not enough interested to click the link and read stories yet, so you can jump links and read the brief intro and later go back to links for more details.

iOS Security Worse Than Ever Due to Oversupply of Bugs
> The point here is that you repeatedly said that Newsome's orders cites criminal statute law

Nope, I never said any of Newsom's orders did that; I said the state and, relevant here, Alameda County public health orders (neither of which was issued by Newsom) both cited the relevant statutory authority to criminal enforcement. I've even linked directly to both orders and reproduced the citations from both orders, and even pulled out and quoted the most relevant section from a broad chapter cited in the county order. You, on the other hand, have made an inaccurate description of the authority cited in the irrelevant governor's executive orders to support the rest of your unsupported inaccurate claims.

Newsom's 39 executive orders on this emergency (at last count, which was yesterday so I might have missed a couple) are waivers of state law under the governor's emergency powers which are separate from the public health orders that are at issue here. (They are only tangentially relevant in that one of them provides the authority for the 5/7/2020 revision to the State Public Health Order bypassing some usual procedural requirements.)

> And today's Wisconsin Supreme Court overturn of its Governor's shelter in place order clearly demonstrates that even a Governor can't exceed his authority, even if s/he thinks it well-intentioned.

That point was never in dispute, but sure.
Let me clarify, in this actual case it would have. In Rust, memory that gets allotted in a function are freed when they go out of scope. So function returns -> stuff gets freed unless explicitly telling compiler not to.

I haven't seen Zig and I'll check it out. But some of the "fanfare" is necessary to get people involved and things built. Many other langs and projects that are technically worthwhile never get any of it and just languish.
Keep in mind that it might just be a trend, cause damage, and keep you from running long distances. It's good for selling products and courses, if you want to go that route though.

Dev board that takes commands from JavaScript
I recall digging into Python subinterpreters a decade ago. Abandoned it because the real killer wasn’t shared GIL, it was shared modules. If one subinterpreter imports a module and modifies that module’s state, then every other subinterpreter that uses that module is impacted too.

Article says nothing about that, which makes me very cautious. The GIL only impacts performance; module sharing wrecks robustness.

Even if each subinterpreter does now keep its own module cache, there’s still the challenge of working safely with common C-level resources such as file handles. (Other than telling users “don’t do that”—and GLWT.)

I’ve used Python now for 17 years and it’s been a very productive tool for me. But it definitely has its baked-in limitations and fighting those is an exercise in rapidly diminishing returns.

Something as fundamental as parallelism can’t just be slopped on top of a language as an afterthought; it needs to be designed for it from the start. So rather than trying to retrofit bad parallelism to Python, perhaps it’d be sense to bring the positive parts of Python over to something that already does parallelism right, such as Erlang, and build from there.
I'm not sure how it supports "modern cloud developers, coming from say a TypeScript/Node stack" with that syntax.

My behavior is completely different depending on the tab UI. I'm a minimalist on my desktop: as soon as I'm unable to read at least 10 or so characters of each tab title I start feeling a little restless/cramped and go through and close all the unneeded tabs. This usually happens a couple times a day. I feel a tinge of stress whenever I look at a tab collector's browser window.

OTOH on my phone where the "tabs" aren't prominently shown in the UI I have hundreds of "tabs" going back months/years. (Occasionally I'll look back at them and it'll bring back some memories of when I was researching a certain topic or on vacation somewhere, which can be nice...)

Perhaps there's some value in this offering, but it's not hard to configure automatic scheduled startup/shutdown of EC2 instances just using what EC2 offers. You can leverage AWS tagging to single out which instances are to be started up each morning. Shutdown is easy, as any operating-system can be configured to auto-shutdown in the evening.

You don't get much in terms of performance and capacity in the free tier preventing you from testing anything beyond the tiniest workloads.

One of the best things I heard from my company's CEO when they moved everyone over to WFH was 'your productivity is going to go down. It just is. It doesn't matter if you were fully WFH before, it's going to go down. And that's ok. And I've told your managers to expect it, and to not let you stress over it.'

Then leadership modified the metrics that bonuses are calculated on, so that the slowdown wouldn't affect our ability to get them.
None taken, I honestly don’t think I’m very sophisticated when it comes to async and concurrency (but I do benefit from being served).
While I think this is a cool idea, I'm really not sure how it works after reading through the features page and the landing page. I can't tell which resources it spins up and down. The listed supported components like DynamoDB and S3 seem like strange choices here -- I'm guessing S3 shifts objects to Glacier and restores them and DynamoDB changes provisioned capacity, but I've walked away with more questions than answers.

If anyone here is on the team, can you provide a bit more details as to what's happening behind the scenes?

Maybe I am misunderstanding the product and it's really an orchestration tool around when an environment is spun up and down, but then I'm having a hard time seeing the benefit over CloudWatch Events -> Lambda -> Pipeline.

Ah, yea. Varying sleeping locations, I've done that a lot, unintentionally. I've slept in humble homes to mansions to far out locations (my own place being a humble home). My best sleeping moments are when I go camping and rise and fall with the sun. That's the only time when I am capable of sleeping normal, waking up and falling asleep with the sun, no clock needed.

Here are my experiences to what you said.

It's darker: I use a sleeping mask.

It's less noisy: I used earplugs but I have tinnitus and it acts up when I do that. Currently though, it's not noisy because of Covid. Maybe I should have a noise cancelling / ambient white noise system. The normal tinnitus levels don't bother me, airplanes flying do.

Better bed: turns out, I love a mattress on the ground the most.

Sleeping next to people: that's funny, I sleep better sleeping next to someone! Well, we all differ.

Regarding safety: that's how I feel when I sleep next to someone. Not that I feel unsafe sleeping alone, not at all. I simply feel safer.

This is an interesting comparison. I'm using uBlock Origin so I'm not sure how the ads compare. Layout-wise, theconversation.com is a little more narrow, and the links are not as highlighted. But the non-black font is a deal-breaker for me. (I'm sure there's an extension, but I find myself doing Inspect -> Uncheck Font Color a lot!) The only other difference is that PopSci.com seems to have less clutter in the columns, so for me, it's the better reading experience (before I give up and toggle reader view!)
