You're only talking about DNS. I'm talking about the layer above that, at the domain name registry, which is the authoritative source that feeds into DNS. The domain registry is typically implemented as a separate database dis

I have an iPad sitting around collecting dust (literally), but I'm not about to pull it out to use for something that works better on a desktop.

Isn't that a really low bar though? If you're making any money off YouTube you've signed a contract. YT Premium just lets you make more.

Yes, that's it exactly, particularly this part: > The global amendments specify operational requirements for providing Registration Data Directory Services (RDDS) via RDAP and detail the sunset of certain obligations for registries

Two different systems operating at different layers, though. I WHOIS the domain when I want to know which nameservers the registry thinks the domain should have. You can then dig in DNS to see what those nameservers are responding, but th

The money mostly goes to large creators simply because those large creators have way more viewing hours. The nice thing about YT Premium is that you have a single subscription to manage, and it then helps support a wide number of creators,

TVs are large enough now that square feet would work, for markets where that unit is used anyway. For other markets ... Uhhh, would anyone understand deci square meters?

And this is exactly why YouTube should block ad blockers, to force people like you to be honest.

YT premium money does partially go to creators though??

Worth pointing out that WHOIS is sunsetting in January 2025 and that RDAP (already live) is the replacement.

by CydeWeys 3y ago
WHOIS is still useful for telling you registrar, registration date, and nameservers. That's mostly what I ever used it for.

This isn't true in many places for lots of reasons. E.g. in California the owner could easily have grandfathered-in low property tax thanks to Prop 13, that you as a new housing purchaser couldn't benefit from. Or there could be

On a meta note, trying to engage with you seriously is annoying because every single one of your comments is whataboutism.

One of my least favorite trends about how HN comments go these days is that nearly all of them are reflexively supporting the company over the employees in any sort of story involving conflict between employer/employee. It's like

Cheaters getting ahead of honest people is of course a problem and I don't understand how you could possibly say it isn't. Those cheaters are taking away jobs and promotions from people who deserve it more.

SF was a much different place pre-2010. And it's going to be rough getting back there from here. In particular the city's expenditures are way higher now (but without revenues to match), and the homeless crisis is way worse.

Sometimes you're willing to take a risk to help effect change. If everyone keeps their heads down and never fights back then things don't improve.

And, interestingly enough, an increasing number of people have moved to NYC to work remotely from here. Living in NYC is a legitimate attraction in its own right, and is appealing to a lot of people even if they're not working here.

by CydeWeys 3y ago
Look, I'm not gonna argue with you that NYC has always been better than SF (it obviously has), but post-pandemic now the difference is even more stark. NYC's economy is much more diverse than SF's, and also has much more hou

I think you're being too speculative here. If you're really trying to minimize paying taxes, then you should be moving to a state with no income tax, don't buy property there (because states with no income tax tend to make u

I bike and walk most places, but I'm perfectly fine taking the subway for longer distances. Even that question itself sounds like it's out of the past from three decades ago.

Unless you are the owner/lessor of commercial real estate, why does this matter? NYC is happening these days, even if not everyone is going back to the office every day. They're still here in their homes (which are renting out f

If only there were some way for the original person to have written a coherent comment so we wouldn't have to play guessing games?

Most cities don't seem to be having the same problem (it's almost uniquely SF that has this problem). NYC for example is booming.

My SBGP017 has a jump-hour movement that I can use for DST (or while traveling) to set the hour hand without hacking the seconds hand. That's how I know its accuracy over an entire year, even though I've adjusted it for DST twice
