I have `<firstname>.nu` as one of my domains, some company that resides on the same postal address as the owners of `<firstname>.se` reached out to buy the domain from me for I think it was €1000. I just told them no, I've had that name for 15 years, I've used it for my personal website ever since and have email and such set up.

I don't care if they printed out my domain on a car print or a card or something that they give out. That's not my problem.

The thing is, companies can (at least under some TLD's) claim domain names. But this claim has to be tested. And the test that I'm aware that exists is kinda if you have some kind of claim to it as well. It may that you own a business with that name, but it's also claim enough that you have that name as your name. Then your claim is valid and you had it first.

I'm not sure how it works with .com, but I wouldn't think they are very different.

In whois records I've seen something called registry lock, may be worth for you to look into that: https://internetstiftelsen.se/en/domains/tech-tools/registry...

Is_email() 3 years ago

It's allowed to have @ as part of the local part if it's quoted. So that wouldn't match my email `"foo@bar"@example.org`

A properly implemented use of password_hash() would also allow them to use the same field and code for different algorithms over time.

What I mean is, the stored data contains which algorithms it is. So they can in their code or configuration change which algorithms to use and how many times it should hash. Then on login they can verify the password against the hash and also check if the stored hash needs to be rehashed against the current set settings, then it can create a new hash from the password the user entered on login and store that in the database.

Then you get automatic hash upgrades to match the current settings of the hashing of the passwords on the site with basically no user interaction (other than the act of logging in to have the password in plain text).

I would also argue that it's quite hard to determine from a Wikipedia article if a person were a good programmer at the time of creating a certain thing about 40 years ago.

If my memory serves me correctly, Leslie Lamport [1] created TeX because he wanted to write a book on math but there were no good systems to write math, so he made TeX. So to me, it sounds like he were a math teacher at that time, I have no idea if he actually knew programming when starting to work on TeX.

Soy doesn't contain estrogen, it contains phytoestrogen which looks very much like estrogen but actually has the opposite effect and block "real" estrogen. Phytoestrogen can help to lower estrogen levels.

Do you know where real estrogen comes from? Female animals. Do you know the gender of basically all meat/egg/milk products comes from? Females. So that's where your estrogen comes from.

Not from Soy.

So you say that it's more extreme to eat beans than to raise animals by feeding them beans to then slaughter them to eat them?

I've read somewhere recently that you need 16kcal of feed to produce 1kcal worth of chicken. That's a 16 times loss in efficiency that requires a lot of plants to feed to the chicken that could have been consumed by humans.

I was using i3 before, so kinda went back to that and when that was set up I decided to try out sway again which actually did stick this time. So been on Sway for a couple of months :)

Emacs has this concept of frames. So you have workspaces by switching frame. Super-<number> is suggested binding for that.

But the weird thing here is that text buffers are shared between frames, but X11 buffers aren't. There's a function one can call to move an X11 buffer to another frame.

The Emacs instance running as the WM is just Emacs in fullscreen. You can use it as your editor. But you can also launch X11 programs and manage them as you do with text buffers. Kill a program, kill a buffer. Same thing.

But you can, of course, launch a graphical Emacs within EXWM. There you get a second Emacs thread.

One can also put X11 buffers in char-mode to pass through keybinds directly to that window. That way you don't have to do weird sequences to pass through emacs keybinds to another Emacs.

Do you encounter this sort of thing outside of the internet? I've certainly seen online trolls mock vegans, etc but I haven't witnessed it IRL.

I'm a vegan. I've been invited to eat at steak houses in work related setting. And people know about these limits. And I'm not alone in that camp here.

This is just an amazing resource. I just found it here and have gone through most of it. At some point I found myself ignoring the goal and just playing with git commands to see the visualization of them. And for the most parts, it's very great!

I need to give this to some people I work with.
