I think it's important to remember that many of these "death bed" bits of wisdom are often the same or extremely similar to those found in deep psychedelic and religious experiences, meditation, so on. As someone pointed out

I would absolutely DRY the example. Auth middleware is an example of DRY, which in the real world would likely live here.

Again, private companies really need to remain smaller. The size of the companies are completely out of control. So do they have too much control? Of course. With that said, they are only doing what they know the masses want. So in a way, t

Parler is back up (as a website) and could even host a APK for Android. In addition, there are multiple Android stores as alternatives to the Play Store. For years people have griped over this "fragmentation". Google, Apple, and o

A while back I went through the motions of moving away from Google. FWIW, a very nice email service (that I believe I found from a article posted on HN actually) is Purely Mail ( https://purelymail.com/ ). Certainly worth put

Listen, I love retro computing. And sure, the systems were much simpler. Systems get more complex over time. I wouldn't be typing in this edit field in a web browser within a window in a multitasking GUI OS if not. With that said, th

Disclaimer: I love Linux. I also like Windows (it's extremely solid). RE path limitations. I actively -- and have for many years -- use paths much longer that 25x characters. Including in Windows Explorer. I can't recall the last

Mostly just pointing it out. I think you're probably right as to the "why". UPX/packers often flag this sort of thing. I'm assuming the Registry keys and the like are from the statically linked in libs.

I've been almost exclusively using Fish on all my installations for a few years now. Every once in a while I have to sub to Bash, but it's very rare.

I gotta say, this is amazing! I'm (very slowly) working on a textmode RPG. Something like this really helps me to come up with the world!

This feels like a huge step back. One of the first very obvious bits has been pointed out numerous times in this thread already: The main panel is shrunk down while various navigation is off in no-man's land.

The short answer: "None of your god damn business", which is the point. The only counterpoint to end-to-end is "we want to be able to access your private conversations", which isn't really a counterpoint unless you

They are both text based configuration file formats made to be easier for humans to interact with, so I'm not sure what you're confused about?

Still much prefer HJSON ( http://hjson.org/ ) for stuff that people might need to touch. If it's truly for end-users (read: non-admin/dev types), you probably shouldn't have them touching configuration files _a

While not exactly as it was of course, FTN-style networks including FidoNet are still going and active, Gopher is still a thing, ANSI packs are still being released very regularly (ACiD folks are mostly Blocktronics at this point), demo sce

Really the only thing I think could have better is had it been in Russian. I mostly got used to it, but it would have felt better listening to Russian and reading subtitles (IMO).

Interesting. My personal response to that list would be: 1) Binding a specific CPU->NIC like one often does for LB's such as HAProxy is likely more performant. 2) Multiple instances of Redis on a single box; one per physical CPU cor
