Start by reading this technical post from CloudFlare.
UDP itself has uses, but the 'monlist' command in the Network Time Protocol is entirely useless. It was probably a "feature" some genius programmer thought they'd need but didn't, and it just got left in the code base.
In proper software design, the majority of development strategies will prevent you from having code in your codebase that isn't used. If programmers for the NTP codebase had been developing code properly, this command would n
Is it so much of a problem for people when trying to buy computer parts? My last purchase for a part was approximately a year ago and it's already been good. However, now that I'm nearly complete with my build, only one parts remains: THE GPU
This thing that I have (GT 610) has been the worst thing I ever thought was a good idea. Now here's when the real problem sets in...
Windforce R9 290 for approximately $417 or EVGA 780 Classified for around $550 or $570
Now looking at both cards, My mi
There is a quote that I live by that sometimes ca seriously save you in some tough situations:
"Sometimes, we must make necessary evils to come to an ultimate good."
It means that we must sadly make decisions that we don't wanna take sometimes that will actually benefit us in the future. Some countries, as you can see, kinda live by this in some cases. But not how I follow by it.
What do you see in the quote? Do you have anything that you live by?
During my lunch break today, I wrote this MATLAB function:
function [rate] = greedy( balance, periods, profit)
% greedy Takes in a numerical balance, an integer number of periods, and
% the desired profit to be made from the loan holder. Returns the optimal
% APR in decimal form (i.e. 3.94% = .0394)
payment = (profit + balance)/periods;
syms x
fun = 0;
for i = 0:periods-1
fun = fun - payment*(1+x/12)^i;
end
fun = fun + balance*(1+x/12)^periods;
solns= double(solve(fun == 0, x));

Huh.
So, I had this disturbing revelation. I wish there were a better way to share it with others, because it's hard to explain how everything connects for me. I guess I'll try and start at the beginning.
One thing you may or may not know about me is that I don't like this world. Not at all. When I was young, I could see that my dreams could never be real in it. Because of this, I usually went to media like video games and anime because they didn't have the limitations this world does.
As I'

I don't know about you guys, but i personally liked the first steam controller concept. They have changed a lot to look more like the Xbox 360 control which is personally my favorite, yet i was really hoping for something different.
So seeing as this is my first blog post, I though that it only seemed fit to use it to explain how I got into PCs and how I have changed since. So the first time I really used a PC a lot was probably 2006 when I was addicted to none other than crappy old Facebook games. The game I was addicted to was, just to be the worst possible, Farmville. I couldn't be away from it for more than 8 hours and I would get genuinely upset if a computer was too slow to run it. From that I went into Minecraft for
I love going to Torchy's Tacos a lot and one of my favorite tacos to get there is the Fried Avocado recipe. Since many of you don't live in Texas you guys don't know how amazing it is. However this recipe is pretty damn accurate to the original, try it for yourself :D.

because only late into the night I realized how much I can do with this blog, I'm going to post all of my EDM stuff here, along with all my android shenanigans and all the other tech stuff that I usually don't talk about.
It's sad to say I won't be able to go to California to visit a friend for her birthday. Looks like I'll only b 60 dollars short for her gift, which I won't be able to give personally...
On the other side, I'll be back on the market for a GPU. I do kinda feel bad now that I won't be able to use the money to go see her.
It's really kinda of a struggle when you have money and don't know what to spend it on since you at are a crossroads. Any one else who has had these situations before>
