Why do you feel like Huginn is on its last leg? It's been in my list of things to play with for years now, but I never got around to it...

I think it's a space that's largely overengineered when classic solutions tend to work very well and are FOSS. On the log side, rsyslog, systemd-journal-remote, etc are being overlooked in favor of the behemoths like Splunk, and I

As the sysadmin/ops dude who has always been on the practical end of things, most problems are leadership and not technical imho.

No, but it could help me make such a thing.

I was suprised at how effective the positivity was on me when I fed it one of my design docs! Color me impressed at the naturalness of the resulting "conversation".

Godot itself is open source, which I think has brought a strong community of people to it. My mega-big-ultra project I've been working on since 2013 would be nowhere near as close to where it is now (close to launching crowdfunding&#x2

This is awesome to see! Much more progress than I have made on my gplv3 version for my system. (the original intention was to replicate Blackwake style ship combat) For what it's worth, the real difficulty in gameplay is getting physic

Talk to people who have admin'd it instead of just users and you will understand very quickly there are a host of issues. Even with tons of hardware the software is just bloated and slow (tons of reports of "I threw a big system a

Since this thread seems interested, I will reveal the main issue being that based on my analysis, reporting to PCI and the state AG would have absolutely destroyed this (very) small business and the businessowner, someone who helped me in a

People are so quick to judge without knowing the details, the situation is more complex than I'm willing to go into here, and I'm comfortable with my decision.

I got my start in the military in anti-terrorism and I find your comment foolishly naive, provacative, and short-sighted beyond measure.

Very unlikely, this is a very small operation with a tiny customer base.

I think privacy violations are a harm in themselves, but you seem to have already dismissed this issue, so I'll move on. How about behavioral manipulation via microtargeting, economic harm via price discrimination, reselling of the dat

I did verify with an attorney that since I wasn't involved and made sure the owner knew what was what, that I had no legal obligations to disclose.

Because I don't want to be associated with companies that break the law and violate regulations knowingly. I've long had a reputation of integrity, and it's one of the few things I have left having almost nothing else.

The intelligence agencies literally use ad data to do "targeted killing" what are you even talking about? Ex-NSA Chief: 'We Kill People Based on Metadata'...

Yes. The owner is old, and going blind, but refuses to sell or hand over day to day ops to someone else, and thus must ask for help on almost everything. I even pulled on my network to find a big processor with a good reputation to buy the

I agree. Let me tell you about what just happened to me. After a very public burnout and spiral, a friend rescued me and I took a part time gig helping a credit card processing company. About 2 months ago, the owner needed something done w

Can we bring back sysadmin as a job title instead of all these fancy newfangled ancronyms! Signed, greybeard sysadmin pretending to be newfangled.

Ops dude here. I agree. I recently was doing some digging on the real future of AI in dev/ops, and I found that the higher the complexity, the less capable the AI (oh god, I've turned into one of those that is now saying AI instea

I doubt it, it's too vulnerable to relay or 50% style attacks. I stopped using it in 2011/12-ish.

My problem is with the obvious compromised assets who continually pop up on threads like this always pushing certain narratives. Look for yourself who has the most posts.

I hope to prove you wrong.

This is a passion and pet peeve of mine. Here are my takeaways: 1) Technical documentation should be coupled with code, so devs will update it as services change (especially in a large or microservice oriented company), and that documentati

Maybe do a README at least before posting to HN? I compile Godot daily, but have been ignoring everything but GNU/Linux as a target platform. I don't see anything particularly unique about this being for mobile besides some pretty

GPLv3 and Rust! Color me impressed! I wonder how hard it would be to run on android (or port if needed).

Sorry I don't check HN very often these days. What I mean is by watching the IPs, I see a lot of cross-border ingress/egress when it shouldn't be necessary. It's not proof, but an indicator of probability to me, that ech

I really like Rethink DNS. I have learned many things from watching it (such as I think Signal is compromised by some five-eyes "crossing the border" fuckery.)
