I wish it was easier to run code in browser that you could know did not make any network connections, thinking mostly of the client creating secrets here.

This is one example of ways that the US empire supports the economy of Israel (the 51st state). I would be very surprised if there isn’t a political element here.

I appreciated this. Lots of solid advice and positive and pragmatic thinking here about aging in the context of being a programmer, and more generally too.

I'll take this opportunity to make a related pitch regarding back pain in particular, which can become more of a problem if you are sedentary as so many programmers are: if you have chronic back issues you owe it to yourself to at least check out Stuart McGill's Back Mechanic (https://www.backfitpro.com/books/back-mechanic-the-mcgill-me...). It's very much in line with this post; in particular the idea that you just have to deal with back pain as a fact of life is--for most people--not the case. Please take a look if you are struggling with back pain. The process he lays out takes work but it's based on solid research and experience and it has helped me tremendously.

Just got that book yesterday because I've been struggling with managing my back pain. Hopefully it'll help mitigate it.

Nah, the weirdest time zone is Africa/Addis_Ababa, which nobody in Ethiopia follows.

Instead the locals offset the time by 6 hours. So the AM cycle starts at dawn (i.e. 6am), and the PM cycle starts at dusk (i.e. 6pm).

Greeted with a paywall on the source. Hypocracy...

I used to work for Sisense and I can say vouch for it being a good product with good support.

kbbgl87 commented on Ask HN: Use Docker Engine from VM · Posted by u/kbbgl87

stop50 · 2 years ago

You can open the socket on an network that can only be accessed between host an vm.

kbbgl87 · 2 years ago

How would I do something like that? I know that docker socket is set up in /var/run/docker.socket. but how do I expose the socket to connections from the bridged network?
