hexo··on After my dad died, we found the love letters
to me it has much better readability
hexo··on Pg_lake: Postgres with Iceberg and data lake access
Oh datalakes. The most ridiculous idea in data processing, right after data frames in python.

We've had this discussion like a week ago about how stupid is to use filesystem for this kind of data storage and here we go again. Actually i had to implement this "idea" in practice. What a nonsense.

hexo··on Preventing Kubernetes from pulling the pause image from the internet
Easy. Dont use kubernetes. You'll thank me later.
hexo··on Chaining FFmpeg with a Browser Agent
what legacy formats? what are you even talking about?
hexo··on Uv is the best thing to happen to the Python ecosystem in a decade
rust hits none.

only people who dont like python celebrate this kind of changes.

Good we have one. What a nice 0% we are.

This. Parents bought LG OLED TV. It is absolutely lovely, has super nice picture. (not an ad!:D) I insisted they never connect it to network. Probably it would be usable on network cut off from internet, but there is high probability of some mistake. I wasnt sure what happens if it got out for just a tiny bit so decision was clear. We've seen zero ads there (except the standard-ads-iterrupted-by-actual-programming).
hexo··on RedoxFS is the default filesystem of Redox OS, inspired by ZFS
Filesystem is essentially a "simple" database. If it is not performing, then it is not a good db. It shouldn't really matter how many files you have if metadata, and indexing of that metadata is done properly (i.e. like in good db). It also has additional benefits to DB that usually do not even exist there as they aren't practical at all (like random access).

Why not?
hexo··on Cosmic simulations that once needed supercomputers now run on a laptop
This isn't any algorithmic speedup.
hexo··on PYREX vs. pyrex: What's the difference?
Im kind of sure making difference between "PYREX" and "pyrex" is illegal here.
hexo··on Less is safer: Reducing the risk of supply chain attacks
Really? Is this some kind of perverted joke? Electron based thing wants to brag about less being safer? Get rid of the browser, then we can talk about less.

Unbelievable

hexo··on Will AI be the basis of many future industrial fortunes, or a net loser?
More than you did. Yeah, it was so creative.
hexo··on Will AI be the basis of many future industrial fortunes, or a net loser?
your example is complete nonsense as digging a hole is not creative in any way at all

hexo··on Mistral raises 1.7B€, partners with ASML
isnt this awesome llama trained on pirated works? just checking this iteration
hexo··on Show HN: I recreated Windows XP as my portfolio
Nice troll.
hexo··on Purposeful animations
That is very not-enough, as it is literally "prefers reduced" but i need (not prefer) zero animation. And yet with this present several years already websites just happily ignore the setting. So i believe this should be honored by browsers which should just stop animating transitions. But then there is the other elephant in the room (JS anims).
hexo··on Purposeful animations
smooth scrolling text is one of worst mistakes in UX
hexo··on Rv, a new kind of Ruby management tool
and now ruby community is being shoveled with rust
hexo··on PYX: The next step in Python packaging
My OS has hard dependency on python, so i'll always have working python environment.

Also, i tend to run pip like 4-5 times max (except initial package installations) during whole project lifetime, or not at all if packages are in distro already. Its speed is ok for that. So I'm not sure what "should" i miss.

hexo··on PYX: The next step in Python packaging
Last time I looked it was in C.
hexo··on PYX: The next step in Python packaging
I don't think so. It'd be best to fix native tools.
hexo··on PYX: The next step in Python packaging
to be honest. ill never use uv. python ecosystem tools should be in python.
hexo··on Zenobia Pay – A mission to build an alternative to high-fee card networks
That scrolling. No way.
hexo··on Kiro: A new agentic IDE
Thanks for accelerating global warming.
hexo··on Oniux: Kernel-level Tor isolation for any Linux app
Nice, now please rewrite the prototype in C and will happily use it.
