  • Or it explodes into a mess of related things and you end up researching 20 different ways / things that would combine well with it without accomplishing anything in the end. Except occasionally having people ask: “How do you know so many things?”

    Disclaimer: I don’t have ADHD according to the doc because I should have had more problems with it in school. More than just getting bullied. She refuses to send me to an institute where they might think I have ADHD, because she doesn’t trust their judgement.

    Props to my (officially autistic) girlfriend for basically becoming an ADHD psych and helping me structure my life and get things done.

    I feel your pain, that absolutely sucks.

    But I also feel Schadenfreude for the company: refusing to hire a dev because they are autistic is just hilariously incompetent HR.

    If you exclude autists, ADHD, trans people and furries, the only thing that has a severe disability is your company’s IT skills hahaha




  • I bet that 1234 is used more often because of the 4-character minimum, like PIN codes on debit cards. It’s 4 characters so it’s safe. 123, on the other hand, is not safe, because it is 3 characters. /s

    My solar inverter admin interface has a certain 4-digit password. So I wanted to change it to secure it, and found out that it only allows 4-digit passwords. Luckily the access point can be set up with a higher entropy password though (it is constantly advertised and had a very “secure” 8-digit password by default, I think you can guess which one)



  • The way I understand it, there’s 2 use cases for a VPN, with different concerns and providers:

    • having access to your private home network from anywhere, through an encrypted tunnel (Tailscale, Wireguard on the router, etc)
    • having your outgoing traffic to the internet go through an anonymized exit node so that your ISP can not watch or sell what you are doing (ProtonVPN, Mullvad VPN, etc)

    Is Tailscale fit for the second? I thought not, as the exit node is not an anonymized VPN server but one of your own machines.
