nyclounge··on Bill requiring US agencies to share source code with each other becomes law
Yes it is better than NOT sharing!

What would be more interesting is to require all private companies who are doing US government contracts, especially the ones who are handling classified projects to do the same as these US agencies!!!

nyclounge··on Ghostty 1.0
So is Ghostty a faster version of iTerm2 and it is Linux compatible?
nyclounge··on Introducing S2
How is this compare to https://github.com/deuxfleurs-org/garage ?

Seems like there are a lot of more lite weight self-hosted s3 around now days. Why even use S3?

nyclounge··on Archive Team
Their download page may have more info: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Main_Page

Seems like a appliance that can archive web page. Could be good for ppl to run and not totally rely on archive.org incase it goes down again.

nyclounge··on Debanking (and Debunking?)
>Law enforcement should do their job and investigate crimes, rather than outsourcing this responsibility to financial institutions and effectively forcing them to be the "judge, jury, and executioner."

Think there have being big pressure from banks and financial institutions to centralize power. AML laws seems just a way for the regulators to do it.

nyclounge··on China completes green belt around Taklamakan Desert
That is probably why China is doing weather modification:

However people in India may have something concerns:

Yeah we are like kids playing match sticks!!! Just because we can, we shouldn't just do it!

nyclounge··on Trailbase: Fast, single-file, open-source app server built using Rust and SQLite
no, but the guy can also look at postgres.js that already implmented alot of the sql`SELECT * FROM ${table_name}` Where there vars are escaped. It ONLY works for postgres, but I'm sure you can make it work with SQLite as well.
nyclounge··on Gitlab names Bill Staples as new CEO
Thank you for sharing this. It make a huge difference for when we are choosing!
nyclounge··on The correct amount of ads is zero
That is what brave is doing. If we are going down this getting money for ads road, then let's just pick the lesser of all evils.
nyclounge··on Gitlab names Bill Staples as new CEO
Time to jump ship to codeberg/gitea? What are non commercial git repos now days?
nyclounge··on Has anyone used Proton Business Suite rather than Google's for a startup?
Not for free!

When you are not paying for the product then you are the product!!

But it is NOT that hard for HN community to get VOIP number over SIP. All the smart phones have a sip client now days.

nyclounge··on Honeycrisp apples went from marvel to mediocre
>I feel like this has happened to most apples, even most fruit, forcing fruit to become all-year fruit in general has made those fruits worse off in the long term in terms of quality due to the necessity to make them long lasting.

Feel like the same can be said about just all industrial revolution related inventions. The consumer culture caters to the wimp of convenience instead of the whole ecosystem.

nyclounge··on Breaking the 4Chan CAPTCHA
Wow Funcaptcha cost the most and it is open source.
nyclounge··on I Didn't Need Kubernetes, and You Probably Don't Either
Or hetzner has also DDoS protect for all their customers. Seems like a lot less rip off and scam than AWS and Cloudflare.

Set your TLS a low number, and you can swap whenever you feel like it.

nyclounge··on I Didn't Need Kubernetes, and You Probably Don't Either
Or if you got a static ip and fast up speed, then just port forward 80, 443 and start hosting your self. Even an old Intel Mac Book pro from 2000's with 4 GB of RAM may not be that hot running MacOS, but install Debian with no X. It is running smooth as a whistle, while running several conduit matrix, haraka, zone-mta, ice cast, nginx with no issues.

WebRTC/TUN/STUN becomes an issue with the nginx config. May consider looking at pingora. The whole rust -> binary + toml file is super nice to run from system admin perspective.

nyclounge··on Ticketmaster’s attempt to game arbitration services fails
Arbitration seems just another way for big corp to weasel their way out of their obligations and responsibilities to consumers. See Hot Coffee Documentary [1]

nyclounge··on Show HN: Visprex – Open-source, in-browser data visualisation tool for CSV files
Maybe use dayjs to handle all kinds of wired string dates.
