The UX could be so much better and more secure. This type of use case is a perfect fit for OAuth2. Current UX: 1. User hits your app 2. You tell them to go to Anthropic and generate an API key. You'll probably need to give them instruc

Impressive, but I don't think we every determined conclusively whether our EFS problems were caused by throughput or latency. Also, throughput is going to be limited by your instance type, right? Though that might also be the case for

What's the best way to provide a new EC2 instance with a fast ~256GB dataset directory? We're currently using EBS volumes but it's a pain to do updates to the data because we have to create a separate copy of the volume for e

Obsidian's business model might be genius. Open file formats; closed source. By making a great product, they attract users. Usually the main argument against software like this is vendor lock-in. But by using open formats, there's

I've been meaning to do a deep dive on sun exposure, specification with respect to base tans. As I understand it, conventional wisdom is that base tans don't provide enough value to offset the risks, and that you should just use s

getlocalcert looks interesting. For custom domains, what would the value prop be vs using a registrar's API? Discloser: I run TakingNames.io which is a domain seller focused on providing a low-friction API.

Would be interested to know the etymology of the program name. There's a large suburb of Phoenix called Queen Creek.

It's unlikely they would let you run it full tilt the entire month. I'm not aware of any VPS providers that have a true unlimited data plan. Would love to be proven wrong.

My brother told me a theory many years ago that time perception is based on the number of memories we have and how they're stored. Imagine your brain being like a filing cabinet, which is empty to start with. Memories are stored as fol

I think I'd end up more limited by data usage than speeds, so the VPS route might actually make more sense. 10x VPS might actually be higher aggregate throughput than a single dedicated 1Gbps line as well.

I appreciate you responding here. I might be in the minority, but if you really wanted to impress me I would love to see a response to the sibling's comment about "unlimited" data usage. I know every company sells unlimited p

It would be nice if there was some sort of system in place to resolve attacks at the source. Sounds like a really hard problem though. Based on reports ISPs can identify which routers are causing problems. With more invasive routers they mi

This is too light on details to determine if there's anything interesting here. Similar to others, these are my main concerns: * Is this an open protocol? * I would like to see a detailed comparison to similar solutions * Looks like it

If I have an MP4 video file sitting in cloud storage somewhere, does UPnP/DLNA provide an easy way for me to use my phone to tell my TV to play that file? Also same question but for Netflix.

Too bad they're not killing the Chromecast protocol as well, then maybe the world would start moving toward a simple, open protocol for casting.

Is there a similar mitigation that would work when you're using the 3rd party nameservers (a la Cloudflare), and not just a CNAME?

That makes sense. The weird part to me is that Homebrew would limit their approach and eliminate an entire class of use cases to accommodate programs that work this way. There has to be more to it.

A while back I was trying to understand why Homebrew requires pre-built executables to be installed into /home/linuxbrew. I asked about it here[0]. This requirement basically makes it impossible to use homebrew to quickly install

This is the key question for me: is there a way to get [most of] the security benefits of EDR without giving away the keys to the kingdom.
