It was not THAT bad, but it really feed my impression that there is an institutional god complex at Oxide.

Brian, you need to step off your high horse. Few people can go around saying that they are the best, and you’re not one of them. It was also embarrassing to listen to the podcast e…

I was on a consultant-assignment at a company that got raided by the police in the EU. The police was extremely careful not to scan any data that where stored on US-servers. The co…

So I’ll just automate failed verifications for everyone I want to lock out?

Yes, it’s the biometrics they’re after.

> No downtime recorded on this day. Neat. Didn't have a single request go through for 2 hours. Guess they need to improve their metrics before the IPO...

Yes, Lettermint looks great if you need both transactional and marketing emails. But it's a bit weird that the OP selected Lettermint over Scaleway for just transactional emails wh…

Same here. I tried different EU providers before I migrated our servers off the US clouds and Hetzner demanded my passport and webcam live verification. Thats a HUGE red flag and w…

In Anthropics defense they make sure that no company can rely on them by being down all the time... And LLMs have become a commodity these days, so you can seamlessly just fail ove…

Someone should add Sam’s face to the targeting training data as an Easter egg ;)

Surly this post must have the opposite effect of what he intended. Even if you side with Cloudflare on the core issue this post is so cringy my butthole collapsed into itself. Are …

That’s why you should only export anonymous information to external parties. There is no valid reason for OpenAI to export my personal information like this. I will report OpenAI t…

What is not realistic? To do simple input validation on data that has the potential to break 20% of the internet? To not have a system in place to rollback to the latest known stat…

Yes, it's probably an overreaction. But at the same time, what value do they add if they: * Took down the the customers sites due to their bug. * Never protected against an attack …

They failed on so many levels here. How can you write the proxy without handling the config containing more than the maximum features limit you set yourself? How can the database e…

We do Thursday to Thursday and then you get Friday off after completed on-call. Being on-call gives you no extra pay by itself, but if you get paged off hours and need to work you …

It's a really simple vulnerability though. It comes of like you're not really on top of things when you cant reproduce or close it.

The real question is why they do Module.function() and then function.() instead of .function()? It makes no sense to have the dot at the end of an anonymous named function.

Then they should have a "?" status that can be triggered by automated systems that acknowledge that it looks to be an issue but that they are manually investigating. If it's a fals…

Will the dead Ukrainians get their lives back? No one cares about your Gmail account mate. Have some respect for what’s going on.

Kevlar helmets and ceramic body armor is pretty standard. Go for body armor that can take a hit from 7.62 rounds. Body armor is heavy so most people prefer the ones that don’t have…

The “but he did it too” spiel rarely works when talking to adults. But you know what, if someone force me to switch dns provider when my government is killing innocent families wit…
