In the spirit of the article, what detail in the decision making of layoffs might you be missing? I expect there's a lot of detail that I'm unaware of relating to running a company (planning; risk; legal; ...) that…
I do some FOSS work with bootloaders and would love a cheap setup where I could leave boards running and have remote access to their UART/SPI/power. Occasionally I need to be able to get physical access to it too. I use…
https://github.com/bwann/homelab documents this sort of setup. Looks great!

What's the risk, and does that change by moving to an alternative? Companies deal with leaked secrets a lot. A company already using a password manager is ahead of the game. Suppose they move to a competitor. That's a…
I raised the comparison to distinguish between authoritative and recursive resolvers, since the parent's question was ambiguous: "So is this just a dns service?".
To be fair, a large fraction of Hetzner's costs will be RAM/SSD prices (since that is what they are selling), and they're in a competitive market, and known to have competitive pricing. Bunny CDN of course runs on…
In their defence, nobody can implement auto-detecting domains well, because there's no way to efficiently enumerate DNS records. (Excluding NSEC-style enumeration, which is not always available.)
Its an authoritative DNS service, so it can host your domains. Compare with a recursive resolver, like 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1, which you can use to resolve domains. What's nice about Bunny DNS is that they have…
The author's tone when they discuss the cost of the project is self-deprecating. They know it would have been simpler to just buy one. But also, the author has given the community a great gift, both directly (the blog…

There's a lot of investment in AI for its potential. An AI editor company might never make 60B itself, but it might help another AI company grow faster (relative to its competitors, who might also want to buy the AI…

Model Y is the most sold model, but BYD is the most sold brand. (Section 2 of your linked post.)
Yes, and the MX check is pretty simple to implement. But it is still lots more complicated than copying some imperfect email address regex, and for many sites, it's unlikely to even be worth spending much more effort…

Could they have consciously chosen to remove that functionality? E.g. to simplify code, or if they wanted all mails to have a domain (if, for example, they wanted to integrate with reputation systems that were domain…

Ah, I see the M5 AtomS3 Lite has a grove, which is probably robust enough for me. Great!
