Every single one! The cloud is a trap.

Haha yes of course it's easier for developers, but they write the software that I have to deploy and manage on my server!

I still prefer Dokuwiki: it's open source and doesn't need a database. Pretty simple to run, and not one more thing to maintain . I have eleven years of internal infrastructure and organization notes in there, as well as user-fac

Interesting and cool idea. In my experience Arch Linux PKGBUILDs are easier and more straightforward to write than Debian packages (or RPMs for that matter).

Ridiculous! A terrible precedent and failure of logic. I'm struggling to find words to express my frustration. They don't even list the domains that we aren't allowed to resolve! Can we use this precedent to sue the US govern

I think the difference is that I chose to install Chrome/Firefox etc, so I don't mind the automatic updates. In this case nobody actually installed this app by choice!

Ah, this is fantastic! OsmAnd is a staple in the open source OpenStreetMap client ecosystem, but its UI is so dated and slow. MAPS.ME was a much better client, with faster and prettier UI until they started monetizing the app in the last ye

To be fair they (on This Week in Virology ) said they think it's unlikely that it leaked, but urge anyone with actual evidence to come forward. Their guest on that episode also said that, while RaTG13 is indeed a SARS-like coronavirus

I think it's definitely scary. How is this even legal? In what world is it OK for Amazon to co-opt my internet connection and share it with random passers-by? Even if it's only 80kbps and 500MB/month (as another commenter p

Your first link is a good resource. Thanks! I'm not a security researcher, but perhaps I can add a few comments on their discussion for other users who might not be familiar with the specifics: > Firefox's sandboxing lacks any

There are lots of Hindi and Arabic words in Swahili! I'm more familiar with the Arabic ones, but a few from Hindi off the top of my head are: pesa (money), embe (mango), and of course chapati. :)

Great writeup! I don't use Coinbase or any cryptocurrencies, but I'm tempted to sign up just to see this React Native application in action. Are there any other great React Native applications you have used on Android? From what I

You can use regular TOTP with Microsoft. You have to click some box during setup that will show you a QR Code. I can't remember what it said, but I did it a few months ago after a tip here on HN.

QEMU can be daunting at first (like ffmpeg, also by Fabrice Bellard!). But check out this 2018 guide to using QEMU by Drew Devault: https://drewdevault.com/2018/09/10/Getting-started-with-qemu... I stopped bo

I came to say the same thing. Fantastic technical writing—as if doing the reverse engineering and novel development wasn't enough! Thank you, Alyssa, if you're reading, for this gift to the community. <3

If you pay them $200 now, how do you know they will be around in ten years, let alone fifty?

Ah yes, they are aggregate indeed. The sentence just before the one you quoted also says: > Fails to deliver on a given day are a cumulative number of all fails outstanding until that day, plus new fails that occur that day, less fails

Wait, by my own calculation it seems GME had way more shares failed to deliver than that. I count over *14 million* in December using the [two data files provided by the SEC]( https://www.sec.gov/data/foiadocsfailsdataht

Yes it seems this is how people are interpreting it. By "problematic" I meant that the distinction of "European users" is problematic to me because it is unclear how the distinction is made. As an EU resident who doesn

Hmm, I only meant what I said, not what you implied. This is exciting news for hundreds of millions of people in Europe. It is problematic because there are millions of people who check the "EU" box depending on how it is defined.
