bauerd··on Cloud Run beta pricing
Quick question out of curiosity, we have a Google Cloud org of three members at work. One member had access to Cloud Run some days ago, he stumbled upon it incidentally in the sidebar. All other members couldn't access Cloud Run. So, how come? Is early access account, not org-based?
bauerd··on Linus: Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram Are “A Disease”
I'm not so sure a lot of people outside of HN view social media as a disease …
bauerd··on Show HN: Muon, a low-level programming language inspired by C, C# and Go
You forgot to mention why formatters would be superior. I do share your opinion, and the two reasons I can think of are (1) consistency and (2) short-circuits style discussions in code review.
bauerd··on Moving from Heroku to Google Kubernetes Engine
Depends on what you mean by hard. Bootstrapping a K8s control plane? Not so much, kubeadm does all the heavylifting for you. Keeping your install recent, etcd performant and backed up, maintaining and scaling underlying filesystems etc. is still a full-time job for production usage imho. Essentially you'll find yourself operating a number of distributed systems below your application stack.
bauerd··on Native Javascript alternatives to jQuery methods
You don't need a lot of other stuff as well, but it might come in handy. Looking through their examples I'd much prefer someone used jQuery instead of writing a bugged getNextSiblings function themselves.

Also, jQuery is self-contained, doesn't shove numerous other packages into node_modules.

bauerd··on Twitter forces all new users to enter a valid phone number
Instead of only logging in every other month you might as well ditch the service completely, no?
bauerd··on Linux touchpad like a Macbook: progress and a call for help
How does the X1's trackpad compare in size to a MBP? Trackpad is probably the showstopper that kept me from switching to some Linux in the past.
bauerd··on Documenting architecture: Wireshark, PlantUML and a REPL to glue them all (2017)

bauerd··on Lem: A Common Lisp editor/IDE with high expansibility
There can be multiple solutions to one problem, there's nothing wrong with experimentation. You seem to think it's OK to call any Emacs competitor crapware?
bauerd··on Serious Chrome zero-day
Use-after-free is ruled out by e.g. Rust's type system
bauerd··on Ask HN: Tools or sites you use to scope out a workplace before taking a job?
If there are separate accounts then the organisation will likely be private, and you wouldn't be able to research the user accounts in the first place.
bauerd··on Ask HN: Tools or sites you use to scope out a workplace before taking a job?
You'd just end up mistaking commits to my private repositories for work. Also, private contributions have to be enabled in order to show up there.
bauerd··on Dotfile madness
Esoteric setups aside, I'd be interested to hear about problems that people actually have encountered with this convention.
bauerd··on Dotfile madness
I don't get the problem. Why bother where dotfiles are written to? GUI file managers and userland tools hide them by default. What would I gain by having them written outside of $HOME?
bauerd··on Just because it’s falsifiable doesn’t mean it’s good science
And economics isn't a science?
bauerd··on Memory usage of a toy C# server and client with 500K concurrent connections on
I don't get the impression that C# is bashed on HN, rather the opposite
bauerd··on Future of TypeScript on ESLint
Is JS a strict subset of TypeScript?
bauerd··on Notion – All-in-one workspace for notes, tasks, wikis, and databases
Only partly on topic, but I wish there was a Confluence/Notion-inspired knowledge management software that's embedded in Git, like git-bug: https://github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug
bauerd··on The blind mind: No sensory visual imagery in aphantasia
I'm not aphantasic, but experience something very similiar I guess. Sometimes when I'm exhausted and close to falling asleep, I experience very clear images of either faces or rooms. The faces always belong to people I know personally, change shape, then as soon as I become aware, they fade almost instantly. As for the rooms, I get the impression of being able to see with closed eyes. Usually I'd see my blanket, random items (such as a chocolate bar laying around) and room interior. Again these are very clear, but fade rather quickly.

This phenomenon I found referred to as astral projection[0], mostly in esoteric circles.

bauerd··on Courier Prime: It’s Courier, Just Better
Probably your browser falling back to a default font. Sure that Courier Prime includes that symbol?
bauerd··on Living and working in Sweden as engineers
Underpaid in relation to what? The bay area?
bauerd··on What If Linus Torvalds Gets Hit by a Bus? (2000)
Covers only the SF region (with a questionable data gathering methodology).
bauerd··on What If Linus Torvalds Gets Hit by a Bus? (2000)
Mind providing a source for this? I read this all the time but it doesn't match my experience here in Germany.
bauerd··on Dop: Distributed Object Protocol
A coworker praised https://pouchdb.com

Apparently a client for CouchDB.

Edit: Not affiliated with PouchDB, it's FOSS

bauerd··on Haiku Beta is finally here
The point of OS research projects is definitely not creating Windows competitors
bauerd··on Making Bluetooth Work on Lenovo X1 Carbon 6th Gen with Linux
Application devs shouldn't have to implement smooth scrolling. The DE should, and make it toggleable on a per-application basis.
bauerd··on Grafana Loki – Like Prometheus, but for logs
Thanks, makes sense. Seems like a great idea, kudos!
bauerd··on Grafana Loki – Like Prometheus, but for logs
What if I have a service that logs quite verbosely and shows anomalous behaviour over say 10 minutes? I assume I'd have to scan all those log messages sequentially as they're not indexed at all, right? Will Grafana offer a UI for doing so or would I have to dump the log segment and grep it?
bauerd··on Write good git commit messages
Surely this is a joke? You hire someone to clean up your commit messages?
bauerd··on Nextcloud introduces social features, joins the fediverse
Most of your points are irrelevant (packaging, JS as a compilation target, mobile development) as they do not support your argument that PHP would be inadequate for the task at hand. You seem not to like PHP, which is fine, neither do I, but this is not conclusive.
