  • For my son I just used APLs in group policy. Only approved apps could run. I encouraged him to be better than me and he has definitely kept me on my toes. Now he is in college for cyber security and loving it.

    So far he hasn’t broken anything major on his computer or the network, well, aside from messing up his BIOS a couple times… But then he got to teach me how to program EEPROM (like I said, he has kept me learning stuff I normally wouldn’t).






  • While I do agree GitHub is a place where people collaborate, it’s also a pretty handy place to store stuff without having to host your own. If the project doesn’t invite people to contribute, don’t expect a polite response forever. It’s like stopping your neighbor on the street corner to tell them they should paint their house white for the thermal benefits, yeah people collaborate on the street, yeah you are right, it’s their house though.






  • I feel like he might be referring to Miracle Whip as it is (or at least was when I was paying attention in the 80s/90s) sold as “salad dressing”. No clue why they called it that but it was a cheap alternative to mayonnaise that had a tangy zip.

    Now I have real mayonnaise made with eggs in my house (my mom was always weirded out by non-refrigerated egg products).







  • As someone who wishes someone had told me… Adults don’t know what we are doing either. It took me way too long to realize I’m not an imposter pretending to be an adult, we are all just kind of winging it.

    As you grow older you’ll have seen more stuff and it will be a little easier, but I can attest I don’t have a clue what’s for dinner, just like I don’t know what new headache the next meeting will bring. Live life for life’s sake, the clock will keep ticking whether you’re ready or not.
