lugoues··on Taste Is All That's Left
Yes but that 10% is all that matter to the people that matter to the business. Like a car, most people care about how it looks and how they interact with it... the only people who care what is under the hood, for the most part, are other engineers.
lugoues··on Securing Services with Rootless Containers
I've been doing this for a while now and it is by far much easier to work with and just as safe if configured properly. I think people just cargo cult thier way into wanting rootless containers for their long running services with no real look into if it's actually needed.

Rootless containers have their place, actual userspace workloads. Things like dev containers or normal users running containers but if one is creating users to run system level services then they are just adding extra steps imo.

How dare you paint without making your own pigments!
lugoues··on TS-2026-009: Insecure argument handling in Tailscale SSH permitted root access
Yes, this only involves their wrapper that is managed by ACL rules.
lugoues··on L'Affaire Siloxane
I thought they just dumped it overboard but maybe there are some ethical cruises... maybe.
lugoues··on I am worried about Bun
I like Deno because there is no "install" step for users, you just run it.
lugoues··on The USB Situation
trrrs is a wild thing to want as the universal connector... They are bad for any actively powered connection since the tip/rings hit EVERYTHING on the way out and shorting. Split keyboard users know that pain.
lugoues··on Ghostty is leaving GitHub
Honestly many companies would do well to use these services. I think we get too much into the idea our apps need the same guarantees as the large products out there. Define your SLAs and then choose the platform.
lugoues··on You can't trust macOS Privacy and Security settings
I agree, it's a ui/ux problem. It would seem that using the open file dialog should also request access but I'm guessing that was too intrusive and the user action is seen as implicit authorization. Security is one of those things that should aways be explicit though.
lugoues··on Maybe the default settings are too high
We can get stuck in our minds and lean too much on prior skills instead of fully assessing the problem at hand. More likely than not, given he was a contractor, building a trench and walls seemed like a simple solution to something he has probably dealt with many time and didn't think twice about it.
lugoues··on RFK Jr.'s Miasma Theory of Health Is Spreading
Next step, doctors shouldn't was thier instruments or hands. That extra bacteria will be no problem if you have a good immune system! Added benifit of culling the heard of the weak.
lugoues··on Helm 4.0
Ugh, can we all just agree to stop using helm
lugoues··on Why does current flow the opposite way from the electrons?
Sort of, electricity and magnetism are two sides of the same coin, electromagnetism, so it's waves in the electromagnetic field with the wire acting as a wave guide. (as far as I understand)

Veritasium has a video that goes over this. It was pretty controversial at release but it gives a good overview. https://youtu.be/oI_X2cMHNe0

And why magnets work due to relativity https://youtu.be/1TKSfAkWWN0

lugoues··on Traffic noise hurts children's brains
The legislation requiring this is silly, are there any studies at all which shows it reduces harm... I couldn't find any. It would seem safer for children, and the population as a whole, if they banned vehicles which don't provide adequate front visibility. Maybe even require sensors that will prevent the vehicle from moving from a stop if something is detected in front.
lugoues··on Ask HN: Any ideas to eat healthier, minimizing prep time?
This may be an unpopular opinion but I've been doing meal replacements, i.e. Soylent, for almost a decade now. It replaced about 80% of my meals (100% of my breakfasts) the others coming from restaurants or when I feel like cooking dinner.

It saves me time having to cook, time having to plan, time having to think about the nutrition

I have zero health issues from this long term consumption. I have a full panel of blood work every 3 months and it's been nothing but good for those 10 years. Some people have a little digestive issues when starting but if you titrate into it then you should be fine.

lugoues··on MacBook won't charge fully to save battery life
“Optimized Battery Charging” on BigSur and later is supposed to learn your charging behaviors automatically and eventually know this without having to be told.

lugoues··on In praise of the European drying rack (2017)
Get used to it or toss them in the dryer for a couple of minutes after they dry to soften them up.
lugoues··on Ask HN: What kind of online tools are you using, missing or can be improved?
Regext is one that I find quite helpful at times as well.
