It kind of boggles my mind when people say 8$/month is steep. I get that we don't all live in rich countries, but still. If you are using a tool everyday this is really not much. I think we have been conditioned to expect software

This is all true and good as long as you keep in mind that open source is not a business model. You can make money with oss, but sometimes we have idealistic views of that and the hard truth is that it's very very hard to be sustainabl

The data is still located in the US so honestly for email I would not see the benefit since so much of it will pass through unencrypted on a cloud provider (AWS?). I personally use mailfence with IMAP on Thunderbird (so its not full E2E enc

I just increased mine to the max of 10 years, I guess I should have done that anyway just for security. What happens though if namecheap goes out of business during that?

This seems like a good idea at first glance as an alternative to VC vs bootstrap dilemma. I particularly like the clause to buy out investors with revenue, most companies we see getting funded IMO are not viable for VC but would be perfectl

I think it would be fair to say that kratos was not the priority in 2022 in terms of code you can see not much was commited ( https://github.com/ory/kratos/graphs/code-frequency ) so I might have had a bad firs

Resolved now, but an hour of downtime really shows you why you are paying for bigger cloud providers with an SLA and customer support. Honestly I wish we could have turned cloudflare off for the time of the issue vs having our api being dow

Good post, side remark our experience with kratos have been mixed while self hosting the solution. You can feel OSS is second class for them (lots of PR never getting merged, endless debates and little progress in code), it's OK its a

For me as a mid-level rust and senior typescript dev, I already run my own contracts so this would be a nice way to do some work in between bigger contracts. I would probably not do it for the money (cant imagine it would pay 150USD/h)

So this is a big blog ranting about something to then sell you something else. Distasteful... We had project based learning at my university, it was fine. Not the best, but 2 weeks scoped projects are similar to sprints which is what busine

That is what we did when we hit a WebKit bug that caused our users to not be able to launch the app at all. But people dont like it.

Funny enough that is exactly what we did and our users asked for a desktop application since this is what they were used to by our competitor.

I build and ship a production application using tauri and linux support is the most painful experience I had in a long time. They use WebKit GTK which is really not a good fondation IMO, its hard to test for all versions, its much slower th

I mean I would have accepted it if they had network separation for various environments managed by the same team, but they DON'T (anyone telling you its fine to deploy staging in the same network as prod should be fired IMO). So you ha

I knew when I got hit with the per seat pricing change a few months ago that there were preparing a raise and needed to get those numbers up. Good for them I guess. Funny enough I had big VC call me for due diligence (because I posted a lot

The lack of before all, before each, after each and after all is really something I miss every day in rust. You can replicate it partially with a OnceCell, a function call in each test and RAII but not ideal. pub async fn test<T, U&g

This quote alone tells you much about the author: "computers can be used to document ideas that change the world, or they can be used to operate central bank digital currencies (CDBCs) that enslave you into crazy, communist cat ladies

Looks interesting but at 35k per license I am not sure who you are targeting with this. Why would anyone use this compared to an okteto, a porter or a qovery? They are all priced in the sub 1k$ for essentially the same thing as far as I can

This is exactly what I needed. Context is I am trying to incorporate different scripting language in our rust app so I tried RustPython and QuickJS. Its been a pain so far and it adds a lot of time to our compilation so I love the idea of b

Because they are embedded in the stream itself something I am not sure would be viable for youtube to do at their scale. For twitch, you basically have to use a proxy hosted in another country where they dont show ads to retrieve the strea

Claiming that OpenAPI or JSONSchema can generate good client or server code automatically is a bad joke if the author had bothered to try the current code generators that exist. They might work but the code they produce is really not great

They cost a shit ton though because they have to run on mac mini AFAIK. It would most likely be way cheaper if there were to run on commodity hardware.

The last paragraph is both funny and so so in phase with a lot of security by obscurity found everywhere: "The V700 consults both “/proc/cpuinfo” to learn the CPU serial number of the device it is on, and a binary file associ

When I read they were using mmap I immediately thought of Andy Pavlo since he warns against it every time he can in the CMU videos. Enough that I thought it was somewhat of a concensus now that mmap should be avoided specially for databases

This is a bad analogy, it is more like if the Tokio runtime was built by a VC backed business which is really not that bad. Honestly the anti business sentiment on HN is just becoming annoying. Get shamed when not building OSS, get shamed i
