Ryzen 5000 cpus are extremely cheap right now. I bought a 5900xt (16 cores) to upgrade a server a few weeks ago for ~$250. If you already have DDR4 you could put together a system …

I can only hope RISC-V's displacement of ARM at the low end will force them into competing more at the high end in servers / high end consumer hardware.

This site does not like being on the front page of HN. ~7MB for pictures of graphs that probably should have html or svg. This is an interesting article though. Bookmarking since m…

There is but it lags behind the latest apple hardware. Asahi only supports M1, M2, and alpha support for M3. Not that I blame them for the lag, there's a lot of reversing work beca…

Not defending the default behavior of zed, but it is possible to disable this. Setting `"lsp. .binary.path": ` will stop zed from trying to install that server. On my machines, the…

Humans are famously rational and ego-less.

I had the same idea. My understanding is that Android isn't vulnerable to these because it doesn't have a user accessible setuid binary.

I can't help but wonder what this cost in USD assuming you paid standard rates from Anthropic. Can someone even ballpark the price?

> There's no View menu Control + , > Window & Layout > Show Menus = true This unhides the menu instead of hiding everything behind a burger. This should be the default. The default…

I have never heard of ethernet cables getting hot to that degree except when PoE is involved.

The server is configured as a caching reverse proxy (just nginx with cache.nixos.org as upstream) which I think is similar to squid proxy. Outside my LAN I do have the ability to t…

I think this is a mostly fair criticism of nixos. Nixos has a lot of powerful tools, but if you don't need them, they can get in the way. Some assorted notes: > unless you run nix-…

Title says "S4" solar radiation event, but the linked page says "G4" geomagnetic storm

Can you expand on how you use Zellij? I tried it and I understand you can use it for splits, and tabs similar to tmux. But I might revisit it if it allows an IDE like workflow with…

I think it's because there are no grills on the outside. If the fans were sucking air out of the box, dust would build up on the outside, and bumping it would dislodge dust back in…

The solidrun LX2 offers 4x SFP+, but that board is getting quite old at this point. There are a couple of bananapi router boards that have 1 maybe 2 SFP+

Just curious, what did you switch to?

Firefox has a setting in about:config to only send referrer headers when navigating to links on the same base domain. network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy = 1

Something to note: Certain service providers (e.g. Twitch) will not allow you to sign up using an '@mailbox.org' email address. I do not know if this ban extends to custom domain a…

SQLx and F# type-providers are probably the best developer experience for writing database access code. I wish more languages had something equivalent.

It's a rust library that you can use to run sql queries against a database. It also inspects the database at compile* time to figure out the type of each column in your query so th…

Yahoo Japan is a different company to Yahoo.

Technically, the first, third, and fifth occurrence of "it's" should be "its". The dog chased its tail. I didn't notice when I read the article though. The original commenter is be…
