JChase2··on Smell PGH lets you report weird smells in Pittsburgh
I've heard of development on drug detection "vaccumes" / machines, so it's probably possible. Kind of a scary idea tbh.

Edit: Apparently they are already in use at prisons. http://articles.baltimoresun.com/1997-10-02/news/1997275114_...

JChase2··on Excessive load on NTP servers
Me and my buddy in like 2010 ended up being questioned by police, then he caught some charges. No fun. All we did was spoof some emails.
JChase2··on The greatest role of Bill Murray’s life has been playing Bill Murray
I read the book and I still really liked the movie. I think it was done pretty well. Book was better but it always is I guess.
JChase2··on NSA tracking cellphone locations worldwide, Snowden documents show (2013)
A couple of engineers, depending on the situation.
JChase2··on An audio engineer explains NPR’s signature sound
Mostly because you can get it louder, and usually louder can trick you into thinking it sounds clearer or "better". Plus there's the history with the whole loudness wars.
JChase2··on Bought and returned set of WiFi home security cameras; can now watch new owner
I've tried finding a camera that has a server that can encrypt traffic, and I can't. It'd be nice to have access from outside of my network but I don't trust it. It really took me by surprise how bad at security these things are. I guess I could set up some kind of vpn but I assumed when I bought it I could enable ssl or something.
