stemc43··on My rant about React
> You don't even need a damn framework.

thats a very classic problem. some people like frameworks some dont. some poeple like ORMs some dont.

stemc43··on Kerberos: Open-Source Video Surveillance
ive also spent entirely way too much time trying to get shinobi and zoneminder to work and had to give up.

xeoma is paid but runs in docker on linux just fine

ha. this article describes me.
stemc43··on Dissolving the Fermi Paradox
When government literally admits that we have daily sightings of UAPs they cannot explain - i do not understand why we still also say there is no evidence of alien life?

stemc43··on Does the Kremlin want Alexei Navalny to die in prison?
im surprised stackoverflow readers would buy political pieces like that.

>deprived both of sleep and of medical care

Thats exactly what us is doing in its prisons. How is he deprived? How is it any different from what his foreign handlers do at home?

Was there a single article on torture Maria Butina had to endure in US prison?

shame cheap pieces like that show up here.

no docker - no buy.
stemc43··on SpaceX Launch: Starlink 12 [video]

stemc43··on Increasingly Competitive College Admissions: Much More Than You Wanted to Know
When I went to college - there were 30 people per 1 college placement for comp-sci. In order to even be considered u had to have top scores from high school (gold metal is better). And that was in regional college - I can only imagine what was happening in the capital. TIL - getting in harvard is easier. Americans have it easy.
stemc43··on Cheap Chinese electric cars are coming to the US and Europe
politics. US car market is protectionist in nature.
stemc43··on Cheap Chinese electric cars are coming to the US and Europe
There is no way these will be street legal in US. Just 0% chance. Selling something street legal is a huge hustle in US -> is why there is exactly 0 Chinese car manufacturers represented here (hell - no even european renault and peugeot can get established) -> just a huge lobby & big & politics & patent war stacking up against this.
stemc43··on Wall Street Rule for the #MeToo Era: Avoid Women at All Cost
go right ahead
stemc43··on Ditching Windows: 2 Weeks with Ubuntu Linux on the Dell XPS 13
windows for docker & dev box? seems like perfect scenario for Linux here :) Fedora 29 is great tbh - u should give it a try.

stemc43··on Linus Torvalds: 'I'll never be cuddly but I can be more polite'
While everyone was spending their time learning how to be nice - this guy actually sat down and built something useful.
stemc43··on Linus Torvalds: 'I'll never be cuddly but I can be more polite'
If not for this guy - we wouldn't have Linux. I'd much rather work with honest person that can tell me how he really feels then nice spoken liars.
stemc43··on Opera launches as a snap for Linux users
yeah. that's wishy-washy dreamworld. For 20 years Ive been using Linux - noone bothered packaging A-level apps for Linux, definitely not closed source ones. That's been enough of a trial run I would say.
stemc43··on Opera launches as a snap for Linux users
noone is going to prep packages for dozens distros with different distribution mechanism. too complicated|time consuming - why Linux doesn't have first world apps.
stemc43··on Ask HN: What are the best hacks to fight depression?

stemc43··on Blue-collar wages are surging. Can it last?
nah - depends. some can - some cant. I've seen it both ways. I was able to get a job even when my everify checks came back as ineligible.
stemc43··on Blue-collar wages are surging. Can it last?
like literally every job Ive ever applied they've everify on me. im illegal in the past - I know how it works.
stemc43··on Blue-collar wages are surging. Can it last?
illegals dont have SSNs. EMployers have to run ssn verification before they hire you. These checks are instant and this will popup immediately. Can they still hire you - well maybe for janitorial -> manufacturing jobs I'd say highly unlikely.
stemc43··on Blue-collar wages are surging. Can it last?
there is an SSN work-authorization test one has to pass when applying for most jobs. No SSN or SSN not authorized for work (all temp|visitor visas) - gtfo. Source - been there done that.

I wanna see time travel research and Tump connections: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4754000/Late-1800-s-...
stemc43··on The Pentagon Is Spending Up To $2.2B on Soviet-Style Arms for Syrian Rebels
If you really look at human interactions they are exactly same as nation - level ones: constant fight for individual success with thinly cover of "moral values".
stemc43··on California ballot measure to decriminalize adult use of hallucinogenic mushrooms
Im an alcoholic and I wish alcohol would be as illegal as cocaine. I often dream of some self-registration no alcohol sale allowed list that would make it harder for me to be able to obtain it. Alcohol kills.
stemc43··on Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections [pdf]
Iraq war happened because US wanted oil and this so called bad evidence was nothing more than a trick to still looks good. As In "I wouldnt have done this if I knew". No-no - they would still have done it no matter what.
stemc43··on Fedora 25: With Wayland, Linux has never been easier (or more handsome)
Screen was freezing in Fedora. In Ubuntu it was working but took ~25 seconds for screen to come on. constant problems across several OS releases & versions.
