I just stumbled on a self hosted project similar to tailscale: https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker. There is also https://github.com/juanfont/headscale which is an open sourced implementation of the Tailscale coordination server. Tailscale "just works" and makes things incredibly easy for personal use, but it's awesome that there are also similar self-hosted options out there

Here is a screenshot of the issue as of time of posting. Forgive the zoom, the UI has a iframe scroll which isn't very capture friendly. https://i.imgur.com/hS8jBzw.png

At least one US investment banks I've used require a waiting period before transacting with a newly added account/routing number for wires/ACH. I've even got calls from customer service manually confirming transfers/withdrawals if it's a new account or one that's been unused for a long period of time.

That said, there is no waiting period on me withdrawing from my checking account.

I use RSS daily with Miniflux. Tiny Tiny RSS is another popular self hosted option and there are a number of freemium platforms like Feedly & Inoreader. I prefer to self host primarily for cost/no ads or tracking/private data. It's true that social media platforms don't support it but that's never been my personal use case - every news site or discussion group I like to keep up with has a feed and it's worked great for me.

We are going through this currently. Have a large new system going in which relies on OAuth and JWTs and our IAM team is now spending a lot of time & energy with the developers on all of the use/edge cases with tokens, expiry, security, and whether the code should be in the client or the server. In the end it'll work out, but I completely agree that grabbing the most popular auth framework for your language will save a lot of headaches in the vast majority of cases.

Agreed, wish they qualified "efficient".

Another example may be that hydroponic growing is typically faster than in soil, for example leafy lettuce such as bibb can be ready nearly twice as fast when grown with hydroponics.

I have the same experience - my two major issues with DDG are the results for technical searches, and I wish that it showed more basic info for businesses like phone number/address/hours without me having to click around a bunch.

This type of question is called a "Ballot measure." 26/50 states have initiative or veto referendum processes, which means Citizens can collect signatures to place a law on the ballot. A coalition containing unions (i.e. service & tire) and others were able to collect 103,604 signatures in support of this law which was more than the required 80,239 to have the question appear on the Massachusetts ballot. They submitted this all in late 2019 and there was some back and forth with the legislature and they were required to collect some more signatures which they did successfully (skipping some legal stuff). After all the signatures were verified, it was certified for the November 2020 ballot (in MA).

If you are curious for more detail, Ballotpedia has a good overview of information in their "path to the ballot" section: https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_Question_1,_%22Right_t...

I love RSS. I started using it again late last year and it's a joy once you find the RSS app that fits your needs. Currently very happy with Miniflux, but also gave TT-RSS a try and found that both would work great for me but preferred the resource usage of Miniflux.

> As someone who has used Angular 2 since beta, I can tell you, it's been a bumpy ride nonetheless.

I can second this - I've been working on a variety of Angular apps in an enterprise environment. It's worked fine and the "batteries included" has worked for my org, but it has definitely been a bumpy ride to get from beta to 9 with plenty of changes along the way.

> And here I am using HTML and CSS with tiny sprinkles of JS for most websites, and it's working just fine, and has been for many years.

This has been my favorite setup at work - pick "boring" tech like Django/Flask or Spring Boot and then sprinkle in some Javascript for highly interactive forms/pieces (React or Vue if needed).
