    I think it can safely be argued that (only) good UX but also great marketing are the reason of that.

    I never understood the issue with DNS-01. if you have a process that you trust to maintain a zone's TLS identity what is the big deal about letting it control a record in that zone…

    Yeah, there are definitely valid contexts for hosting chat like this. E2EE has the benefit of not needing to trust the host, which I personally like but I can see this being fine o…

    So encrypted at rest but no E2EE, did I read that right?

    The CLI plugin or the script? Last time I checked the podman CLI did not support docker CLI plugins and the script is EOL since years.

    I spent about a week last year trying to move from docker+compose plugin to a podman hosted variant. It has issues on multiple stages of the lifecycle as I mentioned in my original…

    Last time I checked podman compose was only a superficial docker compose equivalent. Also stuff like inotify seems to randomly break a lot on the podman side. I'd love to be able t…

    Don't requirements like online server based verification and advancing crypto make it almost impossible to pirate these games?

    I don't know how this works nowadays but when I got taught to write (the pencil and paper kind) and specifically when I got taught syntax, it was "if you want to introduce a clause…

    I understand the sentiment with the tradesman example. I would argue that there are a multitude of ways to care about or take pride in one's trade and emdashing the floor is just o…

    Leaving out apostrophes isn't the same though, is it? If you leave out apostrophes you have syntactic effects while a (sortof)dash is still sort of a dash?

    Comment #48700773

    What is the typical motivation to start using em-dashes? Why go the extra way to have a slightly elongated dash when a normal one would just as well do the job? I might be conplete…

    Cool project! I had mistral vibecode me something similar (split into two services and run via docker compose) just a few weeks ago! I still have dome nitpicks with the result, may…

    That's definitely a thing in the corporate world. It doesn't even have to be the project lead, sometimes it comes via stakeholders, some times its even well meaning devs. It is a d…

    Pangram is a cool idea. It can be wildly wrong though.

    Yup, that's the way it has to be. And thanks to the autocomplete on steroids we call Ai nowadays it actually has become way easyier to do such a thing.

    Why not? I've seen both sides working out remarkably well. It is much more of a mindset thing than anything else.

    Didn't he just say that fork turns out to be comparatively faster to the non-fork samples we get? Ie Linux spawns processes faster than Microsoft's kernels?

    Comment #48275919

    I've stumbled upon that too! Funnily I see it having two forms: 1. Some bad idea gets embedded into the context that you just can't argue away 2. Some important idea gets lost in c…

    Mostly with you, though in recent years I have wondered whether those people are part of what caused the latest boom of political populism. If there is no one there to debate the p…
