smw··on DOGE's only public ledger is riddled with mistakes
What type of people are neither citizens or the military?
smw··on Extreme Server Side Rendering
"I think it would be funny to build a React fork that runs entirely server-side. The virtual DOM could be diff'd, and the diffs could be transmitted to the front-end via XSSR (again, no front-end JS required). I don't think this is very practical but it would be cool."

This is basically Elixir liveview, and it's awesome!

smw··on A map of torii around the world
There's only one marker in Japan? None in Ōsaka?
smw··on Ax falls on elite group of PhDs training to lead U.S. public health labs
We're literally talking about a few people having more wealth than the bottom half of the country, and using that to have increasingly overwhelming political power. Most of the managers and engineers are still labor, even if they're able to afford a house in the bay area.

Worry more about the people who can buy national elections, who make their money by owning things, not the ones with higher salaries.

The economic gains are being absorbed by the billionaires who are running the asylum
smw··on Palantir Drops 10% on Report of Pentagon Slashing Budget
Hey look, you still believe in "trickle down"! I thought these guys were extinct!
smw··on AI killed the tech interview. Now what?
You would be very amazed at how many people with reasonably strong resumes can't write _any_ code. Google for fizzbuz, it's a dumb problem, but candidates often can't solve similar problems with a _take_home_ interview.
smw··on AWS S3 SDK breaks its compatible services
The problem here is that if you're providing a public s3 compatible object storage system, you likely have a number of users using the aws sdk directly. It's not your dependencies, it's your users' dependencies that caused the issue.
smw··on Show HN: Subtrace – Wireshark for Docker Containers
kubeshark [0] is using ebpf to catch calls to openssl/go's tls lib and thus no need to juggle certs. Has pros and cons compared to your method, but an interesting comparison.

smw··on Show HN: Subtrace – Wireshark for Docker Containers
Can it decrypt tls? Perhaps by hooking the calls to common libraries?
smw··on Debugging an Undebuggable App
Do you use a very old phone for jailbreaking, or are there more recent jailbreaks?
smw··on Show HN: The news in the last 30, 14, 7, 3, or 1 days
Nothing about the dismantling of the US government at any time interval? Seems hard to trust
smw··on Multiple Russian Threat Actors Targeting Microsoft Device Code Authentication
Why doesn't this flow require the user to fully login before _requesting_ a device code?
smw··on NAT Is the Enemy of Low Power Devices
I think the vast majority of that is from phones?
smw··on Trust, 2-Party Relays, and QUIC
I understand that China and Russia, for instance, are blocking most or all QUIC traffic? Do you know otherwise? Is attempting to bypass state level blocking one of your goals?
smw··on Okta Bcrypt incident lessons for designing better APIs
You don't think a company whose entire reason for being is providing security services for other companies should have designs related to authentication reviewed by security experts?
smw··on Microsoft deletes official Windows 11 CPU/TPM bypass for unsupported PCs
Wouldn't disallowing updates to Win 11 be the opposite of a logical plan if your goal was to get people upgraded to Win 11?
smw··on Why we built Vade Studio in Clojure
Anyone else unable to login with github to studio?
smw··on Ghostty 1.0
Try binding the tmux leader key to '`' (grave accent). This changed my life!
smw··on Prometheus 3.0
Apache 2 is scary? Maybe I'm missing something.
smw··on WireGuard: Beyond the most basic configuration
Just give in and use tailscale, life is so much better on the dark side!
smw··on Ask HN: What are the nice feature you need in a programming language?
n:m scheduled green threads in the style of goroutines or erlang/elixir processes. await is an abomination.

Make it easy to use multiple cores without forcing the user to think about it constantly.

smw··on Seer: A GUI front end to GDB for Linux
Try Jetbrains CLion
smw··on Jepsen: Bufstream 0.1
It's a kafka clone. Kafka is a durable queue, mostly.
smw··on Multiple new macOS sandbox escape vulnerabilities
Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about OpenStep
smw··on Forget CDK and AWS's insane costs. Pulumi and DigitalOcean to the rescue
Never read anything more true in my life!
smw··on Blocking code is a leaky abstraction
Or you use something like goroutines or Elixir processes where green threads are preemptively scheduled.
smw··on Blocking code is a leaky abstraction
This is the right answer! Preemptively scheduled n:m green threads >>>> any async design.
smw··on Blocking code is a leaky abstraction
Sure, but doesn't that remove the usefulness of the words?
smw··on Modern USB gadget on Linux and how to integrate it with systemd (Part 1) (2019)
Anyone know of a pcie or usb? card that you can plug into a standard pc to get gadget mode (device not host) usb? It seems crazy that they don't exist for development purposes!
