I didn't realize how bleak the future looks, wrt CVE infastructure both MITRE and at National Vuln. Database.

What do other countries do for their stuff like this?


A relative of mine lives in Bellingham, WA and he said that his town has really taken a hit from the loss of money from Canadian tourism.


Not kooky to the (very real) people who these kinds of things are happening to. Ask me how I know.

That's the problem with pages such as: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gang_stalking where the author(s) try to make it sound like a mass-delusion, a mental health issue.

These are actual events, happening to actual American citizens everyday. And then, to top it off, we treat them like they're insane. It's wrong.

The problem is that some of the information about these events is dis-information which makes the entire thing seem made-up. It's not.

I am a gang-stalking victim. I am not delusional or insane.


Jekyll and GitHub pages go together pretty well.


Thanks! And

Username checks out :)


We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43817001. Nothing wrong with it! I just want to save space at the top of the thread.

Thank you :)


Bookmarking this. Thanks for sharing.

Reminds me of this showcase of fonts:

Yet y’all will continue to spend your money there


Yep. Because they offer highly competitive pricing and most items are delivered next day. Both are big factors for me in choosing where to spend dollars and Amazon continues to be the market leader at each.


Ublock origin also has that ability


That font size is tiny. If this is your site, maybe consider a larger font size


The site specifies a base font size of 12px. The better practice is to not specify a base font size at all, just taking it from the user's web browser instead. Then, the web designer should specify every other font size and box dimension as a scaled version of the base font size, using units like em/rem/%, not px.

It's the same size as HN: 12px. HN looks larger to me for some reason, but I can't figure out why: when I overlay a quote someone posted here over the website with half transparency in GIMP, the text is clearly the same height. Some letters are wider, some narrower, but the final length of the 8 words I sampled is 360px on HN vs. 358px on that website (so differences basically cancel out)

This is on Firefox/Debian, in case that means something for installed fonts. I see that site's CSS specifies Verdana and Arial, names that sound windowsey to me but I have no idea if my system has (analogous versions to) those


There's a PDF version linked at the top of the article, it's actually much better typeset.


Given the subject of TFA, this seems appropriate in a meta sort of way.


For those of us unfamiliar with the term DAW, I assume it’s Digital Audio Workstation.

At first glance I thought of: DEW

It’s a digital audio workstation.
