We’re gonna need the delta of deltas


Spam isn't the only challenge of going self-hosted and it's cool to tie into an existing ecosystem for identity. Also it's pretty neat that people can engage outside of your website while you still get to pick what gets surfaced on your own website.


I read "with a fake mustache" as just another way of saying "in disguise," not that it literally looks like a mustache


For me it is lovely because it exploits the fact that the order does not matter mathematically, but it matters in our heads.

Multiplication commutes (a fact pointed out by everyone) but our human brains are better at multiplying some numbers or fractions than others. Computing 50% of 34 is easier than 34% of 50 because we are more accustomed to cutting things in half than multiplying two-digit numbers.

And it's even more lovely when you realize that this applies equally to computers where you may have to rearrange terms or rewrite formulas to get better numerical stability.

In particular, I wonder how people set up their health insurance while on these epic bike tours. It makes sense that costs are minimal, you can have savings, etc. but insurance is usually tied to employment around here..


If your income has gone to/near zero in the US, you're immediately (next month) eligible for Medicaid. That gives you emergency coverage and if you're healthy enough for a long bike tour that might be sufficient. Getting prescriptions filled out of state could be a sticking point though.

Are you saying Harris's team didn't vet Walz, or that the Iranians didn't acquire and distribute the findings?


Iirc the Iranians attempted to, but were unsuccessful. I have no doubt that the Harris campaign wrote up documents about each of their potential VPs.


As the other commenter says, you can get pretty granular with the permissions. If you want to go even further, you can build a Cloudflare Worker that performs exactly the request that you want to do, and nothing else. Then you can configure your router to hit that instead of the API directly.
