I dabble in "life storage" and your comment made me think that some sort of executable shipped alongside backup locations to read the data, if in some deduplicated backup form, seems valuable. Eg Camlistore/Perkeep had…

Heck if it's a general purpose web app - ie not only Chrome, maybe give Tauri[1] a try? [1]: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri
How useful would that book (IPv6 Address Planning) be to someone not working specifically in networking/ops? I like developing applications and i manage, of course, my home network. I'd love a book that gives me…
Man, a personal hosted VPN for all my junk is my dream. Can't wait to get something selfhosted, tail-scail-like setup. Something i can get into from anywhere and work from anything. I'm tempted to order a bluetooth…
Hash Map/Set keys is a common one, for example.
So i agreed with you until: > I'd certainly classify that as addictive behavior -- i.e. when a healthy young man is more interested in what's on his phone than he is in the attractive woman sitting across the table from…
I don't know much about Starlink, but isn't one point of Starlink that eventually it could even beat wired connections for distance latency? Ie it's a shorter and more direct trip to use Starlink to get from US West to…
It's not a security risk. The security risk was removed, and the provided feature is an expensive workaround to avoid the security risk.
I gave an example here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27909949 But in addition to that, 1-3 seconds per click is horrible imo. I have to literally pause, and slow down my workflow, because every input (navigation…
You're right, i'm sensitive to load times and exaggerated by approximately 4x. I just (loosely) timed it, it took ~10-12s to open a backlog selected issue card _with cache_ from refresh. I used that example because it…
> Sometimes I don't understand what's going on in the heads of the people thinking this stuff up :/ So this post made me look up[1][2] COOP/COEP, but as far as i can tell this seems to be a security measure. Seemingly…
I could agree with you from a UX-flow perspective, but the tech is so shoddy that i loathe it. Everything is a "web 2.0" monstrosity of load times and popin. Open the wrong link and it takes you 40 seconds for…
Man, i feel like i'd miss so many interesting topics. Do you think this same goal might work if you limited it to, say, 10 bookmarks? Survival of the fittest, you always compare it to the rest and if it's good enough,…
Wow i'm going to have to try this sometime. That looks impressive. Anyone here try it before? How well does it work?
This looks cool! I'm writing an immutable data store, with my own hashes as IDs; I wonder how viable it would be to use IPFS CID's as my IDs? I expect the trouble there would be how the data is chunked. If IPFS…
I don't know this field, perhaps my bar is low because of Python lol, but Go's GC has very short GC pauses. So short that it makes non-GC'd usecases less attractive imo. My big issue with Go's GC, or GC's in general, is…
Yea, i can see that. As much as i dislike Go these days, their GC is impressive as hell. I can imagine future GC's will learn a lot from Go.
Is there a reason you'd not just throw RC-like solutions on it? Ie the GC is basically going to employ a handful of techniques with overhead like RC, memory Arenas, etc - which you could also use in Rust. So i imagine…
Curious, why do you want a GC'd Rust? I imagine there's something about Rust that you feel would be improved with a GC?

Your 25k cards interest me. I've long hoped to merge the concepts of knowledge base and retention. I love knowledge bases, but i want them to aid and augment my natural retention. Can you speak about how you use the 25k…

This statement is so odd. So we should hire to bring on people who want to work in PHP, and then force them to use Rust? We have a large codebase in Rust. We're hiring devs who want to use Rust. Why is that "doing…
