Yo dawg, I heard you like virtualisation so we put virtual servers inside of your virtual servers.

It sounds like that relationship was not supposed to be salvaged to begin with. ChatGPT perhaps prolonged your friend's suffering, who ended up moving on in the end. Perhaps unnecessarily delayed.

What does it matter? Two wrongs don’t make a right.

I used custom elements extensively in 2014 when support was not as widespread. I think it's a beautiful, elegant solution and I'm still a little bit bitter that React became as big as it was. Now everything "has" to be a SPA because developers want to use React, whereas most users would actually be better served with good 'ol HTML with some custom elements where needed.

I traveled often between Jakarta and Japan in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The real breath of fresh air for me was literally the fresh air back in Japan. After running around for a week through Jakarta, I would inevitably develop a deep cough and a clogged nose. That said, the people, the food, and as someone else pointed out the nightlife is amazing.

An established founder makes claims X is the new frontier. X receives hundreds of millions in funding. Other less established founders claim they are working on X too. VCs suffering from terminal FOMO pump billions more into X. X becomes the next frontier. The previous frontiers are promptly forgotten about.

Sidenote, but I love that in a GitHub issue discussing banning the use of LLMs, the GitHub interface asks if there's anything I'd like to fix with CoPilot.

It's all cURL.

I love the argument that Managed DBs cost a lot, but they're supposedly safer. Meanwhile people can't figure out the IAM permission models so they give the entire world access with root:root.

Good taste, is what I like and advocate for. Bad taste, is the opposite.

This is no longer true. With the advance of "cashless" systems that were heavily pushed and promoted by the government, cash payments have dropped significantly![0] Cashless payments now sit near 50%, up from 16% 10 years ago.

Personally, I would absolutely not mind it if Python made type annotations required.

People argue self-hosting is insecure, then open up their AWS RDS instance to the whole world because they can't figure out their IAM settings.

Windows has a concept of processor groups, that can have up to 64 (hardware) threads. I assume they updated 7zip to support multiple processor groups.

I'm a big fan of "should not include profanity, words of a vulgar nature". It's not unthinkable my password manager comes up with a chain of letters that at one point will include "fuck".

Excellent article! Well written and the animations make it so much easier to understand. However I was unable to get the loops to go.

There are no American infidels in Baghdad. Never!

The garbage is exactly why I stopped using Plex. Yeah, Jellyfin isn't perfect. But at least it isn't bombarding me with crap I don't need.

This sounds very, very expensive, and I would've loved to see cost mentioned in the article too. (for both S3 and R2)

It’s nothing but scams all the way down.

Typical HN comment. Absolutely incredible tech is displayed that honestly, one year ago nobody could've imagined. Yet people still find something to moan about. I'm sure the authors of the project, who should be very proud, are fully aware the voice is robotic.

That sounds like it’s not so sad to see after all.

Quora ruined Quora. And it started well before the advance of LLMs.

Yes, I agree with you there. But managers have a responsibility to make sure systems are in place where if a worker does not self-manage or make a bad decision, this gets caught early on, not 34,000 feet up in air.

I found the Boeing manager!

Perhaps you and I view the world in a different light, but in any organization where there is even some semblance of hierarchy, the manager is, at the end of the day, always responsible.

If management isn’t aware of what’s going on on the factory floor, then that’s definitely a failure of management. If they didn’t receive any signals, management should’ve investigated. If they hired 100% incompetent people they should’ve hired better people.

It’s 58% off, and currently listed at $89k. What a sale!

Another cool addition would be if we could autoplay the frames in order, at a rate of 24 odd frames per second. Perhaps if it’s not too much to ask can we also add the soundtrack? This way we can really appreciate the movie the way the director intended the medium to be experienced!

I'm hosting a few large (multiple TB) projects on Cloudflare R2 with no issues for more than a year now. Super happy.

Had the same experience. Contacted support for manual verification, was online the next day with Hetzner. Machine has been running without interruption for a year now.

Add sorting on the columns. First thing I tried was seeing which one was cheapest per GB.
