  • I don’t think you’re looking for a registrar, you are looking for some third party DNS server that acknowledges “the domain scam” I guess.

    All the major and minor DNS providers rely on the w3 registrar to populate their domain name to IP addresses. So services like hover or GoDaddy will register with the registrar and then DNS services will get your routing info from them.

    I’m not aware of any other registrar out there or some DNS service that allows you to submit your own routing info.


  • I do think it’s important to mention that the jump to senior is largely an accumulation of domain knowledge,

    I feel that. I’m a senior dev on my team of about 7 software engineers, but I often feel like I’d just be a junior somewhere else. Worst case scenario is I can add to my resume that I helped convert a vb6 shop to a c# shop, not sure what that’s worth though xD



  • Im planning on giving it a try. Thought I would try dual booting pop os.

    Windows wants me to update to 11, but my processor is too old. So if I’m going to update my processor, I’ll need to update the motherboard. But the OEM license is tied to the motherboard. So I’ll have to buy a new copy of windows just to get on 11.

    So just gonna see if all the things I like to play work on pop os.

    I think the biggest thing is that I use c# for hobby programming, and I know .net core should run on Linux, but not sure about the IDE.

    If they weren’t ambiguous, then you wouldn’t see them getting popular. The difference of opinion drives engagement which means it’s more likely to show in your feed because that’s how most social media algorithms work.

    Things that everyone agrees on don’t get engagement, so they don’t bubble up to the top.


  • Just to give some context on how numbers can be misleading, a 40 / 60 split is only 10 away from 50; however, even though that 10% margin is small, in reality it that means there are 50% more people in favor of something.

    For every 40 people that don’t want something, 60 people do.

    For every 4 people that don’t want something, 6 people do.

    For every 2 people that don’t want something, 3 people do.

    3 divided by 2 is 1.5, or 150%.

    So, in this 56.6% versus 43.4% split, 30.4% more people are in favor of this bill.

    But percentages are still weird. So even my example can be misleading. It’s all about how you interpret it. For instance, a 95 / 5 split would mean 19x as many people want one outcome. So the gap is 90% in the ratio, but 1800% more people are in the 95 camp. (1800% more implies 1800% over 100%, so 1900% total, or just 5 x 19)

    Another way to look at the data of the 43/56 split.

    If 10,000 people are against it, then 13,040 people are for it.

    If 10,000 people are for it, then 6,960 people are against it.

    Numbers are tricky like that
