Maybe I’m old fashioned but I loathe video updates without a companion text version.

hipadev23··on "This is not a joke, Funko just called my mom"
It's unlikely they are. It's probably brandshield AI-generated harassment calls saying they represent Funko.
hipadev23··on "This is not a joke, Funko just called my mom"
brandshield is the problem here.
hipadev23··on Sora is here
Real artists struggle matching vague descriptions of what is in your head too. This is at least quicker?
hipadev23··on The Surreal Magnificence of Fatherhood
Thanks to you (and dang) for doing that.
hipadev23··on UnitedHealth's Effort to Deny Coverage for a Patient's Care (2023)
I have a different viewpoint that when governance and the judicial systems fail time and time again to fix systemic problems, and the ultra wealthy and large corporations can literally do as they please, that violence is a very logical choice for those who seek retribution.

hipadev23··on The Surreal Magnificence of Fatherhood
why is this flagged? how do we vouch for a submission
hipadev23··on Airline informant received thousands from passenger cash seizures
It’s actually been in operation since 1974 as part of Nixon’s War on Drugs
hipadev23··on Ask HN: Next best to incorporate other than Delaware?
What are the reasons to avoid Delaware?
hipadev23··on The 70% problem: Hard truths about AI-assisted coding
Yeah. I don't know junior devs, outside of those motivated by an insatiable quest for knowledge and never-ending curiosity, are ever going to close the skill gap when they use AI tools to shit out circa ~2021 best practices from stackoverflow.

> I don't think anyone complaints when NoSQL DB

A lot of us complained, very vocally, about how bad MongoDB was.

hipadev23··on Portland airport grows with expansive mass timber roof canopy
Brutalist hell? It’s a vibrant city interlocked with greenery and flanked by Mt Hood
hipadev23··on Gitlab names Bill Staples as new CEO
What does Gitlab do. And why are they publicly traded?
hipadev23··on My domain registrar (DNSimple) tried to 5x the cost of my reseller plan
The business in question isn’t hoarding domains. Customers explicitly request their domain and they register it for them. That’s it. The customers can also transfer their domains out and set DNS entries like they would with any webhost.

They’re not reselling or licensing out domains.

hipadev23··on Blizzard's pulling of Warcraft I and II tests GOG's new Preservation Program
I’m really confused what venn diagram they think exists with sizable overlap of “wants to play war1 and war2 again” and “doesn’t mind a greedy company killing off old products to funnel users to re-releases”

No thanks Blizzard, my soundcard works perfectly.

hipadev23··on Star Citizen crowdfunding passes $750M
Genuine question: Who looks at a video game that has raised hundreds of millions and think “Yeah they need more cash to get this out”
hipadev23··on Kubernetes on Hetzner: cutting my infra bill by 75%
I went back to AWS. Expensive but reliable and support I can get ahold of. I’d still like to explore OVH someday though.
hipadev23··on Kubernetes on Hetzner: cutting my infra bill by 75%
Be careful with Hetzner, they null routed my game server on launch day due to false positives from their abuse system, and then took 3 days for their support team to re-enable traffic.

By that point I had already moved to a different provider of course.

hipadev23··on Engineers do not get to make startup mistakes when they build ledgers
Sankaet is full of shit.
hipadev23··on Hetzner cuts traffic on US VPSs
Good. Maybe they can stop null routing traffic to paid customer accounts because their abuse detection false-positives constantly.
hipadev23··on Synapse still can't find its money
> Evolve pushed Synapse to move the money into non-FDIC insured brokerage accounts

Where can I read more?

hipadev23··on Synapse still can't find its money
Who are they going to sue? Yotta? Synapse? Evolve?
hipadev23··on Introducing The Model Context Protocol
Can I point this at my existing private framework and start getting Claude 3.5 code suggestions that utilize our framework it has never seen before?
hipadev23··on Hey, wait – is employee performance Gaussian distributed?
Why can't people just suck, why does it have to turn into some anti-immigrant narrative.
hipadev23··on Show HN: Trilogy – A Reusable, Composable SQL Experiment
Their examples showing why Trilogy is so good are comparing it against poorly written SQL with poorly designed schemas. It reduces my confidence that their tool is actually solving real problems but instead was borne out of frustration in learning SQL and databases.
hipadev23··on This website is hosted on Bluesky
How do you even know? Don't those both just generate static html?
hipadev23··on Starlink Direct to Cell
I'd still carry an old-school PLB (not a satellite messenger subscription service) for the enduring battery-life, ruggedness, and reliability when it matters. And use LTE-Starlink for the basic non-urgent but super convenient communication needs.
hipadev23··on Frosted glass from games to the web
How does the dragging itself work? custom js?
hipadev23··on PHP 8.4
> too much magic

The backing value is effectively private to everything but its own get/set methods, that seems fairly straightforward to me.
