Quick description, Conda is like a supercharged "pip" from the Python world, and now supports other languages too. So it's like an npm/nvm as well, and beyond.

I'd like to know more about security though, as obviously this could be a huge single point of failure, but otherwise Conda is awesome.


He begins the talk "I was driving here at 90 mph...".

I find this interesting. As I recall Bill Gates had a pension for speeding too, accumulating many tickets in his Porsche in both New Mexico and later Washington State.


One Thing - Jetbrains IDE or anything else where you can configure a ton of options.

Have a cron script to constantly export the preference file and sync to cloud or local NAS.


you can commit a bunch of project specific stuff to a repo? Which alleviates a good amount of pain when picking up a new machine but also helps for collaborating with colleagues who also use a JetBrains IDE


Why are using Zetta Hosting Solutions LLC out of Bulgaria?

I'm a pretty rigorous Catholic, but they have a vanishingly small Christian and even Jewish population to my knowledge.

The Catholic Church was heavily penetrated by both Soviet and Chinese intelligence after World War II. Likely before as well.

Sorry I respect what you're doing, but just want myself and others to do the due diligence up front.

Best of luck otherwise.


I think you misunderstand. I wanted to partner with a Christian so they would be passionate about the idea. Using pro-Christian services was never a necessity and I tried to say in my post that I want to move away from using other's services anyway. Awardspace has had good and free service in my experience using them. I don't see how the Christian population of the country in which the servers I have previously used are located matters.

Bulgaria is predominantly Christian, mostly Eastern Orthodox.


Cloud certs are currently the most desired in the US right now. By that I mean, in order of precedence ... AWS, GCP/Azure, and then Oracle. I would also add the recent certs from Elastic/Hashicorp/Kubernetes are becoming more popular.

These certs I have consistently seen lead to jobs, even for those in difficult to place circumstances. They also I believe train you well for the job at hand.


Thank you for the suggestion, I would look into this.

Even for those without much experience?


certs from any particular vendor?


I believe 4 Japanese-Americans in 3 separate attacks were killed the day of Pearl Harbor in SF.

Police were deployed to protect the community, but this was not until the afternoon of December 8th.

I normally don't side with less security, but yes.

Historical internet websites come to mind. These are posted from time to time here.


I once read an article that theorized that as a covert means of pre-war, countries would publish bogus disease, human health, and pathology data along with fake stats on "how poisonous is XYZ things".

Wish I could find it. Struck me as creepy.


The most incredible thing about all this is that Parler was built on top of ... WordPress.

Robert Mercer put $10,000,000 into Parler, and they build out a WordPress app. I don't mean to be harsh, and I actually have a special affection for PHP (the first programming language I studied), but that is engineering malpractice.

Also FYI per the New Yorker story in 2018, Robert Mercer is the largest private owner of machine guns in the US. He runs them through the armory Centre Firearms [1].

I've seen no reliable sources make the claim that Parler was built on WordPress. To the best of my knowledge this stems from a misunderstanding, and Parler had a WordPress blog which was compromised, but that is a completely separate system to the main social media site, which is not WordPress.


What does the last bit have to do with the discussion?


FYI the debug logs are a very curious part of all this. Signal streams them usually to a domain they keep their ownership of somewhat hidden. The domain is: debuglogs.org and the endpoint is just api.debuglogs.org.

It appears to ultimately just front for AWS S3 backend so a very common architectural pattern.


I'm not sure I understood what the curious part about the debug logs was.
