Cupprum··on LinkedIn shelved plan to migrate to Microsoft Azure cloud
I am curious, which companies in Denmark are trying to get out of cloud?
Cupprum··on LinkedIn shelved plan to migrate to Microsoft Azure cloud
Seems like it’s still a bit of an issue. This [1] is rather a long read, but definitely worth it if you are interested in platforms.

Cupprum··on Ask HN: Is Oracle that much more evil than other big companies?
They are also one of the most major contributors of CPython, which is the default implementation of Python. Especially in London they have a dedicated team, Faster CPython team, which (unsurprisingly) concentrates on improving performance of CPython. The team contains big name like the creator of Python, Guido van Rossum.
Cupprum··on Apple's Blue Ocean
I prefer these glossy displays, i think its actually quite sad that the external display market does not offer many nice monitors with glossy screen.

I do not understand why you are being downvoted.
Cupprum··on Show HN: Pākiki Proxy – An intercepting proxy for penetration testing
I previously used Proxyman [1] on iOS to the http requests send over TLS. It worked rather nicely. Proxyman in this case starts a VPN which handles all the traffic. It uses custom certificate to decrypt the messages.

Cool project!

I have one question though, how do you intercept TLS. Let’s say i would connect my phone to your proxy, and try to search something on the web. Wouldn't the connection not be trusted?

Cupprum··on Better HTTP server routing in Go 1.22
Have you tried executing the tests in github actions where the tests would run on different Operating Systems?
Cupprum··on Better HTTP server routing in Go 1.22
How much time do you spend working on fsnotify if i may ask.
Cupprum··on Better HTTP server routing in Go 1.22
Yes, but the ownership transfer happened quite some time after the project was tagged as archived, which from my side was a flag to move to a solution which is actively maintained. But i am glad to see that the project is getting attention again, i liked using gorilla/mux. But its even nicer that there is going to be out of the support for similar baked into golang.
Cupprum··on Better HTTP server routing in Go 1.22
The gorrila/mux project is weird and I am confused by it. Last year the maintainers archived the gorrila/mux project. Therefore i switched to another multiplexor called gin-gonic. Now as i saw the OP mentioning it in their blog, i went to take a look at the gorrila/mux project again to verify i correctly remembered the project to be archived. Apparently its not archived anymore, which brings the stability of the whole project to the question, or maybe it proves that Open Source is actually very stable. That if a project is missing developers, some other people can step up and start maintaining the solution.

But its nice that this functionality will be provided by Golang itself.

Really nice article i really enjoy the way you write.
Cupprum··on Arc Browser 1.0
I played around with it a bit. Seems like a nice browser, very clean. However this also raises some issues. For instance sometimes when i want to click some button on a website which is close to the border, the top or left bar pop up and i miss click.

For a minute i thought it was supposed to be Glorzo from Rick and Morty. That would be fun, people in WoW running around with squids on their faces.
Cupprum··on JetBrains Mono Typeface
I never actually understood the whole fuss about fonts. I tried playing around with them few years ago and i never noticed that something is easier to read with some font or another, especially in the long term. Whenever i started using some font, i got completely used to it in few days. Therefore i just use the default fonts now.

> Why is that content even allowed on the public internet?

How could this be even done? If you have open internet, then its every hard. If you just try to keep it off some specific sites, like facebook, its still hard. Facebook pays a lot of money to Accenture to clean up facebook, but from time to time you can still find something what is not supposed to be there.

Cupprum··on “Our paying customers need X, when will you fix it?”
These type of people are the cancer of open-source… Feel free to come up with a PR if its so important to you.
Cupprum··on Quetzal-1 Satellite Goes Open Source
It is nice to see another open source satellite [1]. Usually i only saw used in the satellites, releasing also the hardware part is super cool. However there are also other notable repositories. There is for instance a "space kit" for arduinos [2]. Another interesting project was QB50 [3], many student satellites, from multiple universities worked together to study the lower thermosphere. If you search for QB50, there are multiple public repositories with the code they used.

Cupprum··on Once hailed for decriminalizing drugs, Portugal is now having doubts
But then the question is why is there more mentally ill people than in other countries. I know that many homeless people come there from other states because of the easy winters, but then i would assume something similar in europe as well. Spain has many homeless people as well, but there is fewer of them.
Cupprum··on Passwords Are Fine
Security is inconvenience, therefore the role of security is to find where is the limit. Because afterwards users will start to search for shortcuts, which usually makes the systems even less secure.
Cupprum··on We are wasting up to 20% of our time on computer problems, says study
80%? How did you get that number? Van you elaborate a bit?
Cupprum··on We are wasting up to 20% of our time on computer problems, says study
The normal person working with a computer is not a developer. Most of the jobs would be heavily influenced by the microsoft suite.

Microsoft in denmark is very popular, thanks to their amazing marketing team targeting corporates. Therefore this research just shows that closed source microsoft products do not work 20% of time.

Cupprum··on Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake
I am surprised many people write about ssh into a server. Mosh[1] feels more responsive and it also supports longer sessions.

Cupprum··on Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake
You are right, the lack of dev tools in a browser is probably one of the biggest drawbacks of working on ipad.
Cupprum··on Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake
I am a cloud developer and i must say i quite like the ipad experience. I have a server, which runs coder[1] (basically vscode). I also tried to play around with the vs code tunnels, but they did not feel very stable. Because it doesnt have public IP i access it using Tailscale[2].

I especially like the pen, which allows for nice notes and also diagrams.

The other nice thing is, that even when i work from some place with bad wifi. I can still download and upload large files because the server is connected to optics.

Cupprum··on The next generation of serverless
I dont think they are going to run the web-assembly in docker. That would not change the status-quo at all. Already now aws lambda, which executes container has a longer cold start then the zipped code.

Cupprum··on Spore Stats
Spore was the first game i ever played, so maybe thats why i liked it that much. I was still a kid back then. I think the target group of spore was younger than they originally planned for.

However i must say, that i really did not like the DLCs, those were just weird. It seemed like Spore thought the community is going to create the content for the DLCs, which never happened.

Cupprum··on Gren – an Elm fork
I saw the Elm on the Backend presentation. Evan would like ELM to be a full stack language. If it will work properly, you will not have to manage the message passing (JSON, XML). Seems like very interesting topic. Evan looked really psyched about.
