It was probably one of those situations where the kidnappers had diplomatic immunity and the host country had no other option but to declare them persona non grata.

Be really careful with this.

Depending on how you contribute to your OSS code, commits you make on company time are considered property of the company. You could, unknowingly, be forcing your code to be closed source if your company ever decides to make a claim for it.

I prefer to keep things bifurcated. I never reuse my own library and if I do, I rewrite it whole cloth.

It is when you go to a hipster food truck that charges $15 not including tip.

Source: I go to a lot of food trucks.

Omg...I thought I was doing it wrong. I was trying to map ports on my router and it just wouldn't do it properly.

Networking is not my strong suit so I assumed I was being an idiot and reverted back to IPv4.

I absolutely hate how dependent we've gotten to IPv4. To the point that Amazon is charging almost $4 a month per IP. It used to be free. These assholes are buying IPv4 addresses so fast that they are literally driving up the price.

Is there a resource that you can recommend on learning IPv6 based on my knowledge on IPv4? A lot of resources I've seen are way over engineered for my feeble brain.

Like I know what IP addresses are and what port numbers are. I don't understand the difference between how IPv6 addresses are assigned (both locally and generally speaking) and what makes it different from IPv4.

I know it's not DHCP.

Edit: This post provides a link to a great summary for those who know IPv4 but need to learn IPv6.

When I was last looking for a fully remote job, a lot of companies gave you a "technology allowance" every few years where they give you money to buy a computer/laptop. You could buy whatever you wanted but you had that fixed allowance. The computer belonged to you and you connected to their virtual desktops for work.

Honestly, I see more companies going in this direction. My work laptop has an i7 and 16GB of RAM. All I do is use Chrome.

I always felt that this is where cloud computing should be. If you're not building all the time, then 32GB is overkill.

I know most editing and rendering of TV shows happen on someone's computer and not in the cloud but wouldn't it be more efficient to push the work to the cloud where you can create instances with a ton of RAM?

I have to believe this is a thing. If it isn't, someone should take my idea and then give me a slice.

Say I buy a tomato. Tomato is sold to me as tomato, grown in a green house. It's a good tomato.

I bring it home and I cut into it to make salsa and find a razor blade. I didn't see any markings on the outside. I don't know how it got there.

I go back to the store and say, "Dude, what the fuck is up with the razor blade?!"

They say, "Oh, we noticed a lot of people buying tomatoes to cut them so we decided to include a razor blade! You're welcome!"

I say, "But I don't want a razor blade. I just want the tomato!"

They say, "Oh....that's too bad. We think you'll really like the razer blade."

I say, "I don't care. I want a tomato without razor blades."

They say, "ok. Just make sure you present this very specific, very distinct bar code to the check out person."

I go and buy another tomato, present the barcode.

I bring it home and it has a different type of blade inside it.

I go back to the store and they say, "Well, you opted out of blade model a. This is blade model b."

I consented to buy a tomato. Not to buy a razer blade.

I consented to install Windows OS, not fucking copilot, Cortana, Xbox central, etc.

I should have full control over my OS, regardless of who makes it. Even Ubuntu Linux had some sketchy adware that had to be removed (this was like Ubuntu 18 or something can't remember).

I like how you wrote this so that if the command fails, it continues with the rest.

Weird. Anytime I do that I get Rick rolled.

They obviously installed it in a laptop and closed the lid before they were finished.

Depending on where you're going even IP addresses are getting to the point that they aren't helpful. IP addresses are likely to belong to a cloud provider, and unless they are hosting email or a service that requires a reverse record, all you'd get is the cloud provider's information.
