What I'd suggest is using lvh.me, which always resolves to localhost, as do all it's subdomains. If you need a specific IP you can use nip.io. If you want valid certs you can gener…

My pleasure. Claude 3.5 Sonnet made the diagrams after 3 rounds of prompting. LLM's are surprisingly good at making diagrams in monospaced ascii or MermaidJS.

It's not just you. I'm also in the EU experiencing an outage.

I don't disagree with your sentiment, but I think it's interesting that this reached the front page of HN at all, and I have to think it's _because_ of the cult of personality arou…

I've been playing around with it for a bit, but I don't really see what it has to offer that Vagrant doesn't already do. "multipass launch" and "multipass shell" do the same as "va…

They're marketing this as a "mini-cloud". If it can only network through NAT, that eliminates all use cases where the VM instances would act as a server. I'm a sysadmin, so I like …

The comment you replied to was sarcastic.

> Greta visited the US[...] Yes, to address the United Nations.

This particular horse is mentioned in the very first sentence of the introduction of the paper. I think it's a worthwhile study, especially considering such dogs are currently stil…

The same €3000 limit for cash transactions has already been implemented in Belgium, France has an even stricter limit of €1000. Starting in January, the ECB will stop the distribut…

My personal take-away is "hold off on buying a Pi4 until this issue has been addressed in a future revision".

As a sysadmin I disagree strongly. Being able to host my own authoritative servers for my domains inside my org is a fantastic feature of DNS. It lets me do things like split-horiz…

The animated gif embedded in the article is incredibly hard to follow, since it has no controls to pause or go back to the previous frame. I wish the author had just embedded it as…

I'm not German but this headline irked me. They could have just used the full name of the bank. They use "Deutsche" and "Danske" as a shorthand throughout the article itself, too.

Finally an answer to the domination of Alpine as base for Docker images. I like the small footprint of Alpine but Ubuntu and apt/dkpg will always be more familiar to me.

Could you tell us exactly which part of Docker you think is "quite closed"? Docker (Moby) is licensed under Apache 2.0, and so is containerd, the default runtime.

I don't think anyone will ever live for another 70 years after their death.

ShellCheck warned me of a very similar issue in a script of mine recently. In that script I ran the following: rm -rf "${FOO}/" ShellCheck helpfully warned me that that could have …

A recent feature of HN actually uses this trick. If you look on the comments page for any article, there's a series of links: "flag | hide | past | web" and so on. The link labeled…

I found another link [0] to the article at the bbc.co.uk domain but it seems to immediately redirect to the article hosted at bbc.com. [0] www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01gns25

FYI: HN has a recent feature where there's a link labeled "web" under the article link, which brings you to a web search. Clicking the first result will bypass the paywall.
