aw4y··on AI is killing the web – can anything save it?
they killed the web, not the AI.
aw4y··on Landrun: Sandbox any Linux process using Landlock, no root or containers
nice! it would be cool (since it's in Go) how to use it like a library, sandboxing some exec directly from your code.
aw4y··on Italy moves to reverse anti-nuclear stance
I didn't. that's implied in "avoiding regulations".
aw4y··on Italy moves to reverse anti-nuclear stance
not exactly a stereotype, just facts.

for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponte_Morandi_collapse

and also check what happens (now more than ever) everytime there's a big rain in a lot of italian places. I'm very concerned about this.

aw4y··on Italy moves to reverse anti-nuclear stance
The problem with nuclear in Italy is just one: how many time have you read about a public bridge fallen because of bad construction? Same for roads, houses and so on. Most of the time the reason is the company building those, trying to spend less in materials and avoiding regulations - something unfortunately not so unusual in Italy.

So imagine what could happen with a nuclear plant... (nuclear is safe, building in Italy is often not)

aw4y··on Anthropic: "Applicants should not use AI assistants"
this remember me an old interview, years ago, when they asked me to code something "without using Google"....
aw4y··on Amazon's AI crawler is making my Git server unstable
just add a forged link in the main page, pointing to a page that doesn't exist. when hit, block that ip. they will crawl only the first page in this way maybe?
aw4y··on Stremio OS Is Now Available for Raspberry Pi 5 and 4
I already use Stremio with LineageOS on Raspberry 4, it's android so you can install a lot of apps directly from the store, stremio included.
aw4y··on Perplexity AI is lying about their user agent
expanding the concept: one thing (in my opinion) is that someone scrapes content to do something (i.e. training on some data), another thing is a tool that gets some content and make some elaboration on demand (like a browser does, in the end).
aw4y··on Perplexity AI is lying about their user agent
I think we need to define the difference between a software (my browser) returning some web content and another software (an agent) doing the same thing.
aw4y··on Show HN: Use Go's HTML/template to write React-like code
amazing, great work. This would be very "reactive" adding HTMX.
aw4y··on GPT-4o
I don't see anything released today. Login/signup is still required, no signs of desktop app or free use on web. What am I missing?
aw4y··on Rabbit R1 source code [part 1]
basically
aw4y··on Rabbit R1 source code [part 1]
I expect it (or at least I hope) to be really hackable.
aw4y··on Comparing the 1970's Cray-1 supercomputer against the Raspberry Pi
the main difference is that I cannot hold 10 crays in my desk drawer waiting to use them :P
aw4y··on Ask HN: Hardware to Build an AI Assistant?
sure a laptop or a phone is enough. but I wanna have a standalone device, like Alexa, but not Alexa :)
aw4y··on I made nodb, a RESTFful API to store and fetch JSON
Did something similar in the past: https://github.com/rehacktive/caffeine
aw4y··on [dead]
Curious to have a discussion about this. If I didn't miss this post on HN.
aw4y··on Show HN: Doc Converter – Convert PDF docs to Word documents on your computer
is it different from https://dothinking.github.io/pdf2docx/quickstart.gui.html ?
aw4y··on Artificial womb facility concept for 30k babies per year
it's Brave New World by Huxley
aw4y··on GoKey – A simple vaultless password manager in Go
you need to remember all of them
aw4y··on GoKey – A simple vaultless password manager in Go
then you need to remember for each domain which "version" are you at. imagine for 200 domains...
aw4y··on Lies we tell ourselves to keep using Golang
Why should I care if Go/Rust/anything else becomes popular? I don't expect that if I don't "fight" against a language I'll be forced to use it in 2 years: there will be space for different techs, tools and so on.

I can agree with you if we talk about "tools" that attacks our privacy, our rights and our freedom: spend you time convincing people to abandon facebook or something similar and you'll do something good.

But in this case, it doesn't change much, imho.

aw4y··on Lies we tell ourselves to keep using Golang
how boring? Don't wanna use Go? Use something else. What's the point? Invest your time on questioning your knowledge and improving it instead of this.
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
very cool :)
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
yes, no schema required (but you can add it if you want validation)
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
the reason I went "quick'n dirty" is for the prototyping nature of the project. But I'll fix this anyway, thanks!
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
the SQLite implementation is in TODO :)
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
exactly!
aw4y··on Show HN: Caffeine – Minimum viable back end for prototyping
currently there are two implementation for the database "behind": in memory or with postgres, both with zero config (except for starting an instance of postgres, in the second case!). it can be easily extended to use files as persistence, good idea :)

regarding the pre-population, you can just make a quick script with curl that will add some data after you run the service. any thought?
