I used and still really adore tinc, it's been a joy to use. I will say however that development appears to have fizzled out. I was really looking forward to some of the changes in 1.1, but it's been in pre-release for years now an

I'm on the fence about these subsidies, because I worry it's a bit of a zero-sum game versus infrastructure. Wouldn't adding miles of protected bike lanes go further than tax breaks for these devices, and improve the situatio

To save some people a click, the headline made me assume this was something like CoreOS, but this is in fact the opposite. It's not a traditional Linux distro you can actually run standalone, it's just another base for building OC

Fixing bad infrastructure takes time, but you don't even need that to reduce pedestrian deaths. If only people had smaller vehicles the rate of survival would go way up. I could pretty easily imagine a sliding vehicle tax scale where s

I'm sympathetic to Jeff's position, but this is I believe the third post from this individual about this topic to reach the HN front page in the last week. At this point I feel like there's no more blood to be wrung from th

I hate this so much. I don't want a Facebook account but there are several accounts on Instagram that post things I'd like to view. There's some kind of shady black market for Instagram scrapers that bypass the hard wall the

You're talking about a company that puts ads in the start menu and opts users in to all kinds of telemetry. If people haven't gotten tired of Microsoft's antics yet, they never will.

Yes, and the open source/core nature is IMO the single biggest feature of GitLab. The value proposition just doesn't look great to me when you're apples-to-apples comparing cloud hosted Gitlab to cloud hosted GitHub.

Yeah, it's quite strange. Not only in the fact that it's even more closed and walled off than Reddit (as you correctly note), but it's not even the same "type" - Discord is an IRC-type, not a newsgroup-type. It&#x27

Exactly. There is no will to make oligarchs like Musk pay in amounts that meaningfully impact their lives, and as a result they can embark upon virtually limitless folly and malfeasance.

I've come to the same conclusion. I wish HN would just ban the whole domain. The signal to noise ratio on substack is abysmal, with these pundits cum journalists fuelling the confirmation biases of their patrons with clickbait.

It stands to reason that the people most inclined to see and participate in a reddit poll about protesting a reddit policy would be a self-selecting group of enthusiasts (e.g. the 1% rule[0]). I suspect a vast majority of reddit users don&#

> This sounds ridiculous even to me, but it’s a strange feeling to see the death of Reddit. The reports of Reddit's death are greatly exaggerated. I imagine everything will go back to the status quo as soon as this protest is over.

It all just blows my mind, because realistically none of these details even matter. It's reddit's ball, they can take it and go home any time they want. They don't have anything to prove, they don't owe anything to anybo

There are definitely places where you can fit into such a role, but you need other people you're working with to do the grunt work and make sure you're aligned with what matters to the org. If you don't have somebody doing th

I agree, it's far less effective. People will say that remote work lets them focus / write code or whatever, but that's not where the real work happens (or at least, it's only a tiny part of the real work). The real impo

Weirdly the Axios style is usually the sweet spot for me, but this one misses the mark. I think the specific problem with this is that they use the "unregistered" / "registered" jargon without actually defining it f

I can't understand this sentiment at all. I feel like HN was absolutely part of the hype cycle. It wasn't as bad as some forums, since some skeptical voices were present too, but there absolutely was a ton of breathless hype over

The problem here is how many regular people got scammed in that window while crypto scams were essentially entirely unregulated. The lack of any meaningful oversight of this stuff for so long is a bug, not a feature.
