Well, it says right there in the GitHub About section: "Drop-in replacement for E in the ELK stack".

I was a kid when there was a Benzene spill up where I lived at the time (Duluth, MN). I remember having to evacuate to our aunt's house out of town. My dad stayed at home doing yardwork until he felt "a little lightheaded" and finally joined us.

Benzene is really bad for you


I live in Brooklyn Park and received 5, the last of which lifted the shelter in place order.


I live in Brooklyn Park, as of now we are still under a shelter in place. I don't know exactly where the killed lawmaker lived, but it was right next to my neighborhood. We are advised to not answer the door for police unless there are at least 2 officers present. Wild/scary.


Texas cleared out the Capitol grounds after what the DPS said were credible threats against lawmakers planning on attending protest, after the Minnesota shootings. It's wild that people still support a political environment that fosters hate over country

yup. it unfortunately works well in the gun industry


And you can use hammers to brutally murder people as well as to drive in nails. You can use a screwdriver to grievously wound someone besides using it to repair your glasses. The fact that a tool can be used for bad things does not negate the good things it can be used for. Nor does it mean that the maker is responsible if someone chooses to use it for bad things.


'the gun' by cj chivers is an excellent read, i suggest checking it out


FWIW the vast majority of guns sold to civilians never get discharged at anything other than pieces of paper.

(And quite a few never get used at all - "safe queen" is a well-established term for a reason.)


> offering different time intervals

your previous response to the stalking concerns was "it's 4 hours off / 1 hour on, the device is not very suitable for stalking someone"; wouldn't this comment - allowing that to change - then make it even easier for stalkers?


Well it would warn the person that they are being tracked when the airtag turns back on, so I feel like any other tracker would be better suited for stalking people, and most of the time it wouldn't even track.


sure but you've acknowledged that your product is something that Apple considers bad and could shut it down. that can usually be overlooked for things like emulation, but you've developed a product that does something Apple specifically added protections against after they learned of its dangerous misuse


> sure but you've acknowledged that your product is something that Apple considers bad

No. Everyone that builds projects inside someone else's ecosystem is subject to this. Even companies that like what your are doing might break it if they aren't specifically testing against your product.


That does not read as "something that Apple considers bad" but rather "something that Apple COULD consider bad"


> not a high level of stalking

imo no level of stalking is appropriate. while this device might not do everything a stalker wants it to, it surely makes it easier for them


> lack of net neutrality caused issues

given it's all still just regional ISP monopolies, there is decided _not_ a lack of issues


> why is virtual reality associated with small screens and head tracking?

...because that's what it is? surely you understand that the difference between 3D, near-eye displays and traditional 2D screens warrants a different label
