I agree with you, failed on that one

It is my ouput, but I use ChatGPT to fix my spelling and grammar. Maybe my prompt for that should be refined in order to not alter the wording too much.

I used GPT4o to fix all my spelling and grammar mistakes, maybe it went a little too far, but this is 100% my comment

I have experience running Kubernetes clusters on Hetzner dedicated servers, as well as working with a range of fully or highly managed services like Aurora, S3, and ECS Fargate. Fr…

If a barrier can stop a .50 cal BMG, then it should be sufficient to stop space debris. 20-30 cm of concrete should be enough.

I think you can pull much of the data you need for such a project from the GH Archive https://www.gharchive.org/ They basically have captured every event that happened on the platf…

> A few months later Bannister was no longer the only runner to do a 4-minute mile. These days, high schoolers do it. Wait. I know where you are coming from, but this is simply not…

We have so many distributed X applications nowadays that all try to solve the same problem, either in the same or different ways. I think we first have to come up with a simple, di…

Just recently, I did a terminal latency test with Typometer for the following terminals, sorted by lowest latency: xterm (389-1) alacritty (0.13.1-1) kitty-tuned (0.31.0-1) zutty (…

Finally. I hope we get zstd into the Go standard library. It feels kind of strange that we have to fetch a third-party library for that.

On Hetzner, you receive an abuse email with the directive to respond appropriately if your root server or VPS is involved in some kind of abuse related issue. In larger companies t…

I wonder why no one mentioned Zstandard yet. It is 10x faster to decompress than most other formats and offers comparable compression ratios.

I remember being a kid and wanting to play Far Cry in high quality when it came out. I did not have the money to buy the best graphics card to play it smoothly on high settings. So…

Yes, you can rent a few dollar VPS from e.g. Hetzner (since Germany is mentioned in the blog post), and run a few wget commands in parallel in a loop on their 200MB setup file to e…

So, you suggest that Frederik Schwan had prior knowledge of the security issues but hid the real purpose of the commit under "improve reproducibility"?

Interesting, they just switched from tarballs to source 19 hours ago. It seems to me that Frederik Schwan had prior knowledge of the security issue, or it is just a rare coincidenc…

I upgraded Arch Linux on my server a few hours ago. Arch Linux does not fetch one of the compromised tarballs but builds from source and sshd does not link against liblzma on Arch.…

I do not wonder about the double productivity increase compared between Rust and C++. But what really makes me wonder is the comparable productivity of Rust vs. Go. I thought Go is…

You are right. If you put 100 dynamically linked binaries into 100 OCI images, then you have the same security issues all over again. As best practice, I would recommend using a co…

It will be a challenge for a few months, but as other parents pointed out, it will improve over time. My advice is, if you plan to have kids, then try to reduce any other factors o…

I can relate, sleep deprivation can have serious health effects. We did night shifts on cycles every other day, where one parent slept through the night on the couch with hearing p…

One issue with static linking is that your dependencies will likely have critical CVEs over time. If you keep all your libraries separate on the filesystem, you can just do a "apt …

Well, maybe he never wants "someone" to deploy his project. I think it is perfectly legitimate to handle it this way for a one-man hobby project. For a project where multiple peopl…

It is only slightly related to the keywords "Dutch" and "tulips", but it is likely an interesting wiki article for the average HN user: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulip_mania
