Ask yourself why all these companies are fighting each other to be your default DNS provider. Why do their "privacy" solutions always give them your data instead? It's valuable data and it's easy to control it yourself. #privacy https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/own-your-dns-data

I've been having a look at the live coding for a simple web game in Clojure (The parens of the dead -- https://tinyurl.com/yxpd2xju).
The series is an amazing exercise of effective and efficient programming. I wish the creator would have used magit along the way to have a look at the git workflow as well.
The creator is also known for his Emacs Rocks series (http://emacsrocks.com)

Norwegian woman Ayla Kirstine developed an unusual skill — running and jumping like a horse because of her love for horses. Love takes so many wondrous forms👇
Seriously, folks. Comparing phones' booting times sounds idiotic to me.

I'm using the "Literate DevOps" approach by Howard Abrams (https://tinyurl.com/ppzvxex), which is brilliant. As a result I will get a Readme (notebook), and configuration files and scripts all parameterized.

What a No-Carrier Phone Could Look Like

Wrapping my head around #Tensorflow.
An affordable approach is to use dictionaries for weights/biases, then functions for subparts (e.g., encoder/decoder), then functions for connecting the subparts (model).
