Is supply chain still an issue or is it finally possible to buy a pi without making it like buying tickets to Taylor Swift?

looks cool

I will sound lame and boring but here is my sobriety story:

- Where I am from kids start drinking at 16 or earlier and it starts with beer. Which is bitter and "an acquired taste", one "you have to learn to enjoy". I did not want to "learn to enjoy" anything that is objectively bad for my body, the cause of all sorts of issues for people (career fuckups etc) and on top of all that expensive.

- I used to drive all the time and therefore not starting to drink made it easy to not miss it. If you never made it a habit, you won't crave it, you won't miss it.

- I grew up with family around me drinking a glass of wine or other drink on a routine: at dinner, after a long day of work... => this worked for them, no judgement, I personally will try to build routines that make me sleep better, actually bring me lasting joy.

- Time wasted by alcohol, even at moderate amounts, is none-zero. I want to reduce my time feeling shit as much as possible, because why would we want it any other way?

IDK, I am probably weird for not drinking any alcohol ever. But I enjoy parties as much as my friends. Its all a matter of being influenced by peers making drinking 'the norm', breaking the norms for your own good works out most of the time.

Sorry... I'm boring and easily excited :p

Correct. Better to get into other forms of cryptography than pointlessly increase the numbers. We need to think more about PQ proofing.

Correct. Anything higher is an order of magnitude more computationally expensive to do for no real reasonable gain. Multiple layers of encryption get you there far enough. Better to dig deeper into other cryptography methods than try increase AES beyond 256. Its already rather insane how quickly decryption happens.

The world changes once you realize why usually encryption is capped at AES256...

Having had to order whiteboards to airbnbs for offsites, yes this is cool!

Shockingly, even some of the brightest experienced engineers misunderstand how we end up with 3rd party scripts in sites and the risks of them.

I love how we have gone full circle on retro technology.

I've been waiting for a good alternative to the paid map providers for a while but none of them have really hit near the level of feature parity I needed to be a good enough replacement.

Finally good news from the UK!

Surely a company that in their own docs suggests using "dangerouslySetInnerHTML" knows how important it is to be transparent about their downtime? This is shocking, thanks for sharing!

I love a neat short and powerful blogpost!

I love how they learned from their mistakes of the old macbook pro. Batteries need ability to expand ever so slightly. Same reason why cranes are able to move freely with the wind when not in use.
