I wouldn't be surprised if you were a markov chain.

It must be the holidays, where the experienced netops spend time away from HN and trivial poc's for old well-known attacks get upvotes.

Somewhat OT; As a swiss, the omitted ö is really beginning to bug me. It's Zöpfli. Gopferteckel. (The second word is a somewhat soft cuss word - But don't try to use it as a non-na…

If this piqued your interest; or left you wondering, I'd recommend reading Piketty's "Capital in the twenty-first Century". As Graham's piece concludes; if we don't do something , …

If you're considering replacing your current (assumedly homegrown) solution; I'd recommend using lsyncd instead.

Did you and parent poster not see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10032621 ? It comes into play there. As to "why?", I assume it's asked in jest.

For those of you located in Switzerland; you can "hitch" a ride at http://an2.ch – though you must become a club member or ride as a guest of another member (This is required by sw…

I did, but as you said by yourself, it's short on info. The conflict resolution is where the meat is, isn't it? And https://github.com/amark/gun/wiki/Conflict-Resolution-with-G... …

When I read your responses, I can‘t shake the feeling I'm talking to some snake oil salesman in a nice suit.¹ And to be honest, GUN‘s docs sound similar. Heavy on how to use, and h…

Seconded, I plowed through the “wiki” (not really one) and the code for a bit, but gave up after while. Doesn't have to be LaTeX for me, as long as it’s a comprehensive documentati…

Honestly, the first thing I did after playing for a half a minute was downloading the track, and trying to find out who made it. Hope there will be more tracks in this style (skyur…
