On which side?
caryd··on Gitea: Open-source(MIT) self-hosted Git service
I like gitolite more.
caryd··on China is building a GitHub alternative called Gitee
That's a great way to give China all of your source code
caryd··on Paul Buchheit: A Possible Third Solution to End the Pandemic
Deluseional pipedream disguised as information.

Let's make a test for heart disease we can take every day. Let's make a test for cancer to spot the first mutated cell. Let's invent a time machine to fix it all.

There are three solutions, but not yours.

1. Open everything as long as the curve is flattened to rush to herd immunity. This was the plan. Why did it change?

2. Wait 2 years for a cure.

3. Allow willing participants to get the virus to make vaccine tests better. It will be cured in 2 months. We allow people to sign up for war and risk their lives. Do the same with science.

caryd··on Ask HN: For managing websites, how do I transition to cloud computing?
Is there a question? You are asking for dozens of solutions.
caryd··on Ask HN: Would you pay a monthly subscription for Firefox?
No. There's nothing special about Mozilla. There are a thousand browser options. You are very mistaken if you think chrome is the only option.
caryd··on Google's ex-CEO Eric Schmidt says the internet will split in two by 2028 (2018)
It has already happened. 2028? More like 2008
caryd··on Volunteers Build First Nationwide Database of Police Records
Cool. I hope they find some of that institutional racism so they can stop it.
caryd··on Ask HN: Who's happy where they are and doesn't want to be hired?
What does this mean? Happy jobless people?
caryd··on Ask HN: What's the best value dev box?
A set of raspberry pis can work wonders for cheap. They also let you work with orchestration and scaling.

If you want a real box, buying used is fine. Plenty of companies need top of the line and sell off their old stuff.

caryd··on Apple rumored to be working on an iPhone running macOS
That worked well with windows 8. Good luck Apple. It could be great but I hope it doesn't mean the os will get further dumbed down.
caryd··on Ask HN: What do you think will be “the next big thing”?
A free speech service that is serverless and unable to be shut down. That will truly give power to individual people.
caryd··on Canada Got Better. The United States Got Trump
Likely.
caryd··on Companies Start to Think Remote Work Isn’t So Great After All
We do several sessions every week that get us to work together. We run internal code challenges. We meet for lunch weekly. We do safe group activities like gaming and kayaking.

Innovation and collaboration has remained steady or increased.

caryd··on Ask HN: How to help fight climate change as a developer?
You could use a pencil and turn off your electronics. You could also stop reading fake news. The countries that cause the most harm are not interested. The virtue signaling counties could turn off everything and still not make a difference.
caryd··on The Twitch Streamer Who's Reinventing the Platform
I've seen a hundred streams doing that. They don't last
caryd··on Ask HN: Why don't Amazon, Target, Walmart implement product queueing?
People would forget and abuse the return policy. Also, they constantly change prices so you would either get screwed or lock into a price the seller doesn't want to offer for a billion orders.
caryd··on Study: A universal basic income would grow the economy
Fake news with zero proof.

The rich will save it all. The poor will buy junk under the table. Barely any of it will get taxed.

caryd··on Ask HN: Whats the Whiteboard Solution
If you want it to work across platforms then js is the way to go.

It could be written in a few hours

caryd··on Stop Saying That There Are Too Many Sauropod Dinosaurs
There Are Too Many Sauropod Dinosaurs
caryd··on Companies Start to Think Remote Work Isn’t So Great After All
Fake news from bad companies. I find the complete opposite to true. I'm hiring more than ever, devs are learning quickly, and projects are getting done at record pace. Git gud wsj
caryd··on Canada Got Better. The United States Got Trump
Fake news by people who have never been to Canada.
caryd··on [dead]
That is some terrible writing. At least use the spell checker.
caryd··on No-reply emails from businesses shouldn’t be allowed
You try dealing with a million responses on every campaign and let us know how it worked out
caryd··on Any issues with managing namespace per user on Kubernetes?
Use labels for that, not name spaces
caryd··on Ask HN: Many good devs do you know that have almostno online presence
All of them.
caryd··on Ask HN: How can I help startups exploit my state's zero income tax?
You could start a company that contributes to society and pay their employees more to join your company instead
caryd··on Ask HN: How can I fight climate change by writing code?
Ymmv. Use what's right for your program. Having to download and run an application for something you can do in a second in a browser or terminal isn't saving power.
caryd··on Ask HN: What self-directed learning project did you gain the most from?
Anything involving other people. Development for yourself is easy. Pleasing other people is difficult.

Practice making things for other people and developing with other people.

caryd··on Girls can learn to code with the help of this new smart keychain
Sexism.
