Also relevant, Indian courts have pushed out some silly orders in the past against Domain Registrars - such as blocking them from registering any domain names with the word "amul" as a prefix or suffix without the Amul Coop's

It doesn’t actually answer the libc question. > Our current understanding having spoken to systemd developers is that we should be able to find a path that brings us much closer to upstream, if not entirely. What’s the path here? Running

A good alternative to writing your own echo server and debugging requests one route at a time is requestbin, which will gladly take any requests you throw at it, log them, and optionally return a response of your choice. Lots of different i

I am hoping the limit is just a MacOS thing, like how MST1.2(?) was supported on my old MBA(2015) hardware but not available on MacOS. I could Daisy chain DisplayLink monitors on Linux, but MacOS wouldn’t let me, and I was limited to a sing

Having lived in India all my life, I’ve never seen one of these notes, or known anyone who used these. They are not part of the cultural zeitgeist - no films or shows that have them for eg. The only time I’ve seen them mentioned is in news

I found a security issue in the credit reports Equifax India sends out. Been trying to report it for almost a year now I think. Equifax doesn’t care.

GitHub itself used pjax heavily and I liked those interactions far more than the newer React ones, the HTML was much more semantic for one, with middle click always being respected.

So what's the plan for monetization? NPM getting acquired by GitHub was an anomaly, and I'm wary of letting VC-backed companies becoming ecosystem lynchpins.

I made the same thing in a Ruby/Sinatra web-app 6 years ago: https://github.com/captn3m0/opml-gen I got tired of importing regularly to Minuflux though, I just use the GitHub UI these days.

What I would really like to see is “subscribeable OPML feeds”, so GitHub could provide a OPML feed for what shows up in your home page, and you any changes in your subscriptions (repos you watch etc) would change the OPML, which would then

But the UPI requirements of forcing mobile apps makes the monetisation usecase UX pretty terrible (think App Intents to and fro on mobile browsers) and scanning QRs on desktop. I’d rather like Taler.

Do IFTTT/Zapier even allow switching the Host for such requests? For companies like Zapier, it makes sense to request complete access to Google Sheets, but it gets very problematic for least-privileges, and this is a reasonable solutio

In a much smaller company, shareholder pressure could have resulted in the TLDs being removed or publicly released (Donuts Inc, for eg - the other large gTLD owner has made all of its TLDs available). For Google and Amazon especially - any

The list on the link is primarily unrestricted TLDs (which are supposed to be open to registration for everyone) but are not (yet). Examples are `.ads` by Google, or `.author` by Amazon. There are a few brand TLDs in the list as well which

In case of multiple applicants, there is an auction that can happen as well. In reality, various applicants settled among themselves so there weren't many. 1/3rd of the amount raised from the fee (60k USD or so) was earmarked for
