Got rid of Ubiquiti and the breach was just a footprint. Personally I'm really happy with Mikrotik. I do not recommend it if networking is not your thing and you just want some plug and play. So far I love it, wifi performance is bette

So many lessons in this article. When your service goes down but eventually gets back up, it's not an outage. It's "elevated latency". Of a few hours, maybe days.

OK, but this is programmer to manager explanation. I get how computers work. I know simple things can get very complex at scale. I just thought that the huge extra you pay for cloud services is mostly for battle tested solutions for these s

Can you elaborate? E.g. postgres replication is pretty straightforward and not a new technology. I'm outside AWS ecosystem and with just dedicated boxes having some DC burn down is manageable. How do magic clouds make that hard?

I tried OVH a few times and ran away every time. Currently have 10+ dedicated boxes at Hetzner and I'm taking time to write this comment because I like them that much. I only contacted support a few times during my 10+ years there but

I'm fairly confident that those agencies use context in an automated manner to get any meaningful results. So "keyword" (could be a word, domain or some other pattern) X may trigger only if Y and Z was already triggered. And

Why not use generators like most data centers in case of power failure? Is energy usage that much higher?

I examined mine carefully after reading your comments and.. did you buy it directly from HHKB? Maybe you have some counterfeit? But you may be right, I'm not such a keyboard aficionado, I only had a few mechanical keyboards and maybe m

My HHKB Hybrid Type-S is definitely less noisy than MX-Brown (at least in WASD keyboards edition). It may be more silent than my typing on macbook air, but it's hard to compare because it produces lower frequencies, definitely nicer so

Or downloading official Model D app made by Moog for $14.99 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/minimoog-model-d-synthesizer/i... It sounds amazing.

I have kids, and I also definitely agree that it's better if lead is not in there at all. The whole lead in gasoline story is ridiculous and traumatizing. I'm just not sold on the idea of testing/researching products and gett

I see. I like it. For me the killer feature would still be multi tracking though. When I have musical idea in my head and I'm trying to use my voice to save it I need to put parts that are supposed to be on top of each other one after

You don't give your kids toys which fall apart and your dish is not losing 1% of its mass with your every meal. So I'm asking how much is it losing? How many grams of your dish may stay on your food? From a quick look carrot has l

Can anybody explain to me or give me some materials to read? Say toy has 5000ppm Pb, how does that translate to it being dangerous? Child only touches it. Assuming soil have a ballpark of 100ppm Pb and we all love fresh vegetables.. how is

It would be great if you stated right away what's advantage of using it over say GarageBand. Is it just about cleaner UI?

Sadness. There is a solution for all this mess and I'm blocking HN and a few different domains until I implement at least the first step after which I can share it here.

I would assume they will go away pretty fast because of power usage. SSDs are currently targeting performance because of the cost, but it seems possible to make them even more (and much more) power efficient when used as high latency storag

Can you elaborate on the ground cable? I mean as shielding it should work regardless of what you described here, right? And regarding voltage between these two points, why would it be so high? And wouldn't it go down to 0 quickly after

How does content of this compares to e.g. newer (still 30 year old) book like Applied Cryptography by Schneier? I understand these PDFs are even more "applied" but in terms of concepts behind them?

I'm asking how else can you get the same functionality.

Clueless questions: 1. Assuming it's easy to keep 20C (I thought it's problematic to keep such a low temp for satellite which has problem radiating heat away), what about transfer, is electronics not yet operating back then or do

It's enough that they screw up 0.01 - 0.1% of orders. They are big enough, those people will be loud and not those without issues. On HN I put comment below because I had some issue - if I had not, such comment would have too little va

My point is that for taxation or legislation you need exact numbers and the same number should be the result for two different people in the same situation. I agree that even huge margin errors could be perfectly fine (because some value +

There is currently no real competition for TSMC, many wealthy corporations are trying and failing. Many economies depend on chips that come from there. Historically, wars were often fought about some resource with limited access.

Some real estate is no different than art. Such arbitrary limits only create loopholes for those with most expensive lawyers.

They estimate that and wealthy know all about it. There is no equation for calculating value of a piece of art.
