You are implying a centralized semi monopoly is the only way. If we had farmers to buyers direct distribution it would be much more resilient to this kind of problems.

Do you think that there is form of communication where you reach a higher understanding? Are we average Joes on HN?

could have / should have => being smart retrospectively

I am sorry, but HN is probably the last place on Earth where you can wander off the mental plantation of single tech praiser people without much pushback. Perpetuating monocultural…

True. I would love to have less features in MacOS actually. We are approaching Windows start menu level of crap being installed by default.

My problem is that I do not want to replace one centralilzed service with another. I do not see any difference between the US and the EU (or Australia) in handling privacy. Most po…

A lot. Problem is that sometimes the hardware is lost due to renovation to the building. https://www.theregister.com/2001/04/12/missing_novell_server...

Is it possible to have Hindley–Milner type system for a LISP?

True, however I only saw this happens to achieve max perf. I have very limited experience so this is confirmation bias from my end.

I see what you mean. You can use it with mise that has build support.

I have moved to uv few months back and never looked back. I use it with venv and it works very well. There is a new environment handling way with uv: - uv init new-py-env - cd new-…

I thought that the point of Rust is to have safe {} blocks (implicit) as a default and unsafe {} when you need the absolute maximum performance available. You can audit those few l…

Is this suffering from the same problems like Redis when trying to horizontally scale?

The biggest problem what I have with using AI for software engineering is that it is absolutely amazing for generating the skeleton of your code, boilerplate really and it sucks fo…

The amount of issues I have seen in the last ~20 years caused by "off by one" type of errors in Excel is insane. Few examples: - incorrect schedule for the electricity grid for an …

So I have this small form box (it is hardly bigger then few mobile phones stacked on each other) and I run Tailscale on it as well (also as an exit node). I installed Tailscale on …

Apple today announced M3 Ultra, the highest-performing chip it has ever created I thought it was few weeks ago when M4 Max came by.

It is one of the tools I use as well and I pay for it. It makes life so much easier. At work we have to test a lot of country dependent settings and with TS and Mullvad is is very …

I am not saying it would negate evolution. I am saying origins of life could be extraterrestial and then life goes on a evolutionary process.

"Historically, ideas on the origins of life have been mingled with evolutionary explanations. Darwin avoided discussing the origin of the very first species in public although he a…

The evolution theory of origin of life just got a kick in the wrong spot? It is kind of weird how defensive is that crew. It is very much possible that life on Earth has extraterre…

I WFH for 20 years but never had a job where we did not have an office.

Absolutely. And we can finally infent FTL and fly back in time to stop nuclear to begin with. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
