About predictabl3

The only thing dumber than comments on this site is me for coming back so many god damn times. Maybe I'll learn this time. Probably not. Oh well.

dang, you were probably right to keep me rate limited because now I DGAF. This site sucks, your comments suck, your moderation is ineffective (or rather, has achieved more or less what should be expected). Sorry, not sorry.

    lol, as a distro package maintainer, I've literally stopped packaging and stopped using software that uses autotools. Given me meson or give me a software compiled in a respectable…

    Oh never stop HN. I should never use anything except 30 year old gnu tools because they've definitely never gone through development lulls, or changed ownership. Etc. "They'll stil…

    Man, HN really just can't handle harsh truths. Do I need to go dig up 6 year old issues about this? Or the half dozen times it's come up on HN over the last 5 years? I love Rust, I…

    Thanks for at least offering something interesting . To be honest, the state of crypto is past what I can keep up with, but that gives me some concrete foot-holds to look into Phon…

    Genuine question, are there folks hyped about Deno that don't come from a nodejs background?

    This issue has been pointed out so many times, it's clear it just doesn't matter, really, to anyone on the Cargo team. Meanwhile, years after this criticism was first offered, the …

    Please don't scorch me HN, this isn't an endorsement, just a question for thought -- but isn't this one of the things Lightning is sort of meant to solve? lol, literally less than …

    I absolutely love that Texas has managed to convince their citizens that the states' problems are definitely most certainly all those California transplants (that they encouraged t…

    Don't they get tired of being wrong, too? I've used software from these types of people and their stuff crashes and segfaults as much or more than their equivalents, certainly than…

    Did you not see people warning against this previously? These warnings are like "make backups", "use a password manager". Afaict, people are either going to, and have, or they're g…

    Hard to trust this when the conclusion is to use NFS instead of VirtioFS. I don't buy that NFS over network, to a VM is faster than 9p, and certainly isn't faster than VirtioFS. Th…

    I'm getting a self-signed SSL cert and then a generic Under Construction page. :/ Mostly just fyi: https://images2.imgbox.com/59/43/iBpTIRgT_o.png

    I can't believe I bothered reading that. Luckily the discussion of the client side encryption feature request gave me enough context to immediately stop.

    I personally would wait to show it until it's usable. The self-hosting docs say "forthcoming". I'm quite interested to learn more, whenever that might be.

    Since I'm the one that said it originally, I tend to strongly agree. I really can't stand it. Its such an absolute, unnecessary respect killer.

    Technical details 404, nothing about what distinguishes it from other chat platforms and hosts it's own community on discord. No.
