It requires full disk encryption doesn't it? If someone already has access to your account then they can access this data the same way you can. The new issue here is that this silos a load of private data in one easy to grab location. Users would have to set up the filters perfectly to prevent recall capturing anything more sensitive than what's already accessible to their account. This is in a world where many users are probably storing their passwords in a Word document on the desktop.

Who is this 4chan guy anyway?

Their solution is to let users filter out websites in compatible browsers. This lets them blame the user for not marking sensitive websites as such. I don't know if native applications can also be filtered.

Of course they also filter out precious DRM protected content. You wouldn't steal a series of JPEGs.

Whichever one has the smallest relative path to the workbook using it? How does it find the workbook if it isn't open already?

Don't forget that there's a hidden system junction at C:\ProgramData\Application Data that points to C:\ProgramData. Because everyone loves loops in their filesystem. Of course C:\Users\All Users is also a junction to C:\ProgramData. This kills updatedb in WSL.

Huh, it's the same as $(( )) - arithmetic expansion.
I think it's deprecated and not in the bash manual, but it still seems to work.

I still don't understand the point of namespaces. I guess it's less overhead to pass through a namespace to a VM rather than having a virtualised disk image or bind mount.

Morphit , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Change tracking ideas

I would encourage you not to split things up too finely. A single repo for your environment would allow you to see all related changes with git. E.g. if you set up a new VM it might need a playbook to set something up, a script to automate a task, and a DNS entry. With a well put together commit message explaining why you're making those changes there's not much need for external documentation.

Maybe if you want some more info organised in a wiki, point to the initial commit where you introduced some set up. That way you can see how something was structured. Or if you have a issue tracker you can comment with research on something and then close the issue when you commit a resolution.

Try not to have info spread out too much or maintaining all the pieces will become a chore. Make it simple and easy to keep up.

Morphit , 4 months ago to Technology in Modeling shows green roofs can cool cities and save energy

8% reduction in peak AC usage would be huge. I don't have a good feel for numbers like that but I'd imagine it would take a lot of maintenance and roof replacements not not make a saving given that kind of energy reduction.

It would be nice if they could estimate some uncertainties and show where the break even is between energy reduction and upkeep energy expenditure.
