Curious, how long have you been running your service with them? A few months?.. years?

What was that bot that MSFT stood up on Twitter that trolls and memers fed to turn alt-right? I know they eventually took it down and that it stirred up a lot of controversy. I wou…

Thanks and I'm not surprised, it's a pretty intuitive feature! So really the only thing Heroku gets from these all-inclusive tokens is something to drive their type-a-head input on…

I do remember hooking up Heroku to Github for auto-deployments and thinking to myself something along the lines of, "why does Heroku need ALL of this access?" It'd be great if Gith…

I feel like a graph database is a solution to an issue I've faced (and, continue to face) and it may just be because that I haven't spun one up and tried or that the documentation/…

But then what would happen if the GitHub token leaks? Would someone then be able to retrieve their own credentials as if they were your CI/CD pipeline? I feel like it be hard to au…

Working from home for the past 2 years has allowed me to help a lot with my own growing family. I do clock in my normal work (if anything I do more now because of my home setup, be…

Note: my income has never been dependent on local/small clients (small being I've fixed bugs for free (if I failed to interpret requirements or made a mistake) but otherwise I woul…

I'm reminded of the scene in The Matrix where the controllers to the gates of Zion are in a simulation managing the processes. [0] Instead of managing things outside the matrix via…

Over the past few years I've searched for something like this, here and there, thinking I wasn't using the right search terms and then giving up. I'll certainly give this a try! Ou…

https://gandi.net has always offered free WHOIS protection, at least for those domains that support it, if you look up any of my domains with them it's all pretty much hidden. I th…

I remember myself back in elementary school making games with this. I'd paint up a scene, stamp some art and then cover the stamp. I'd then have my friend guess as to where the sta…

Over the more recent years, whenever I'd get sick and experience fever dreams, JavaScript paradigms would be what I'd get lost in i.e. asynchronous calls, callbacks, single-threade…

One of my only two attempts of an Ask HN was this specifically [0] and I've wondered this still. With subdomains, top level domains being at the top and being able to drill down in…

Yes, in quite a fascinating way, too: https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/forging-new-paths-fo...

This part resonated with me and took me back to when I was picking up PHP on my own and breaking apart a Wordpress installation, file by file, line by line, method by method. Has s…

"The best code is no code at all."

As soon as I read the title, I felt joy! I had followed this guide when I had began programming early on and had a great experience. I recognize it by its name alone!

I really like the idea of wave energy, on-coast or off. While I have not looked too much into it (downsides, maintenance, scalability, ROI, etc.) it does feel intuitive. A day-drea…

How long until their registrar or nameserver provider bounces them, too?.. how upstream will this go?

Why can't URLs start from the top domains and dig deeper into other subdomains and then finally resources? Today we start from lower subdomains and make our way up to top level dom…

I've recently been narrowing down interesting submissions by grooming my HN board using the "hide" ability. However, some submissions will show later (I'm sure they're not re-posts…

I've worked with Split.io at a client, they had libraries for our frontend and our backends. Their interface was also neat and would allow you to separate out your feature flags pe…

This reminds me of the steam.com domain - for the longest time I've wondered what the relationship is like between the owner and Valve Corporation... It used to have an actual page…

I'm there with ya - one of the images in the article had me immediately think of that part of the level.
