WesSouza··on Show HN: Gitdot – A better GitHub. Open-source, written in Rust

Windows 7 you mean.

WesSouza··on Ask HN: Share your personal website
https://wes.dev

I had this intent to make a recreation of Windows 9x for the longest time.

I wanted to implement many modern apps as Windows-like software, but ended up only implementing Bluesky (which does work pretty well), together with other fun jokes.

WesSouza··on "Just Fucking Ship It" (Or: On Vibecoding)

WesSouza··on Tell HN: I think there are major issues with Google –> Squarespace domains
I moved all my domains to Cloudflare, but one .dev is still stuck with Google for being a premium domain.

No word on migrating it to Squarespace for me for some reason.

WesSouza··on Ask HN: What's Rabbit R1 business model?
I believe they are betting on being able to monetize things around their "Large Action Model".

Could be market for the automations, where people can for example sell "buy tickets on ticketmaster" actions.

They could also monetize all the data they have and will have training that particular model, which is very lucrative if the AI bubble continues to inflate.

WesSouza··on Rabbit R1 source code analysis by Retr0id
They deleted the entire GitHub account.

Here's the archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20240424095530/https://github.co...

WesSouza··on Cloudflare Mines 1.1.1.1 Data
Can they argue that aggregated usage data does not constitute user data?
WesSouza··on Cloudflare Mines 1.1.1.1 Data
From their privacy policy[1]:

> Cloudflare will only retain or use what is being asked, not information that will identify who is asking it.

It’s also not a good metric, given it’s biased on locations where people are more likely to use 1.1.1.1.

I see for example Brazil oddly ranks pretty high on many sites.

WesSouza··on The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
And I have a skepticism that capitalism will never allow that.
WesSouza··on The case of the vector with an impossibly large size
It’s never lupus. It’s always race conditions.
WesSouza··on The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
"Google Is Full of AI Dogshit" or "Search Engines Are Full of AI Dogshit" or even better "Search Engine Algorithms Expose All of Internet's recent AI Dogshit"
WesSouza··on Shader Printf in HLSL and DX12
Neat.

In the meantime web developers keep yelling “you don’t need console.log”, lol
