That’s for Apple services specifically. If I build an iOS app, I can get geo coordinates.

That may be true for things like contacts, but here they have your location, and they use the network. Thus they could hoover that up and store it, even mapping everywhere you go over time in their DB.

Don’t apps self-report this stuff? You presumably need to make a DB query from their backend to see any reportings in a 5mi radius, so at minimum they have your GPS coordinates and IP address (which when combined would uniquely identify you)

I avoid meat/dairy to help the environment, prevent animal cruelty, and improve my health (specifically cholesterol).

I suspect lab-grown meat helps the environment and prevents animal cruelty, but it’s still really dangerous for me to eat, so I still wouldn’t touch it. Seems like a net positive for the world, though.

How do you provision a Linux VM? (paravoce.bearblog.dev)
submitted 8 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hi friends, I'm back, this time jotting down some notes around my go-to way to provision VMs using Ansible. This post assumes Debian (Nix may be a future post).

Of course there's many ways to provision a server, and this is just one of them. I hope some of these notes are helpful!

If you have any other ways you prefer to set up a server, that would be cool to share!

Hi friends, as promised, I'm back with my second post. I'll be hanging around in the comments for any questions!

In this post, I take a look at a typical deployment process, how long each part of it takes, and then I present a simple alternative that I use which is much faster and perfect for hobbit software.

Sharing some lessons I learned from 10 years/millions of users in production. I’ll be in the comments if anyone has any questions!

I hope this series will be useful to the self-hosted and small web crowds—tips for tools to pick and the basics of server management.

I hope some of the lessons in this series help people learn to adopt Linux directly into their stack as a simple tool that can be managed easily on a server.

No, you see, it's fine now because he personally benefits from the hatred.

Curl comes to mind. Libcurl is at the foundation of almost all networking.

I never understood how normal, kind Germans in the 1920s could be so brainwashed that they'd turn into monsters just a few years later.

Now I've lived through it and seen the same transformation within my own family. It's incredibly sad.

Just tried commuting on my bike from Santa Monica to downtown Culver City today. I took the Exposition bike path, which was fine until I needed to get off of it to head south.

Google recommended I take National and--lo and behold--there's no bike lane with cars flying past at 55mph+ on blind hills. That's a death trap.

On the way home I left early to avoid traffic. I took Venice Blvd, since it has a protected bike lane all the way until McLaughlin which Google Maps called "bicycle friendly." No bike lane, of course, with cars flying past leaving a foot of distance between me and death. One testy driver in a BMW didn't want to wait the 15 seconds for me to pedal into the left turn lane to get back onto the Exposition bike path, honking and then flying by nearly killing me. Jeez lady, I'm not the city planner. Don't kill me to save 15 seconds.

How does Culver City put zero bike lanes going north to south connecting to the Exposition path? How do these drivers maintain their licenses?

What's a cyclist to do?

Technically yes, in the same way window tint or requiring a front license plate is.

The law is applied selectively to groups of people they don’t like and used as a justification to pull you over for doing nothing wrong.
