I have a couple of projects that once a month need to run a few million dns lookups as quickly as possible. I'm tempted to try this just to see how it performs and if it breaks.

Man it's like we live in two different realities and yours is a textbook. dozens of times I've been sent links to download a pdf or fill out a form that is not linked from the main site anywhere. I know because I check - I hate cl

I'm surprised you feel that way. I fight with my mac every day for one reason or another. At least it's not as bad as the days where some software used Cmd + letter and some used ctrl +letter, but for instance Cmd tab will switch

I had a laptop that folded to 180, without touch screen, and had a webcam hidden under F7 so it either looked straight up your nose or showed your huge fingers

While I'm the same and totally agree with you, the few times I've been using touchscreen I find the habit sticks so hard that for days I keep touching my macbook screen, so there is definitely some subconscious desire for this (or

I never understood the rationale of giving out /64 and /48 like candy after what happened with ipv4. I know it's still a massive increase in capacity and I know it makes the networking easier but it seems like we went from s

A couple of years ago I changed the address on my car but didn't receive the documentation and didn't realise for a few months. Then I realised the tax was due and I hadn't had a reminder or this paperwork - one of which is n

This is a bit of a strawman. Not all customer facing roles are call centres, and not all bureaucracy actually comes from above. I'll give you an example. A couple of years ago I changed the address on my car but didn't receive the

It very much seems like you think you could do better. Not being a lawyer does not make someone part of an uninformed populace.

While I sympathise, I disagree with your stance. Cloudflare handle a large % of the Internet now because of people putting sites that, as you admitted, don't need to be behind it there.

Ok I asked for an example and you provided one, that's fair. It also makes the second domain a target. I had someone issue a cert on one of my subdomains because I forgot to remove DNS after cancelling a VPS, and the VPS provider didn&

So only lawyers should be allowed to vote, otherwise we are subjected to ad hominem attacks?

Strawman argument. Inflicting harm does not automatically equal a crime. And you're also disregarding the use of guns as a deterrent.
440.
by dwedge 7mo ago
This is an instance of begging the question "if the overwhelming amount of used guns are used to accompany crime then how can you argue otherwise". But there's no substance to your premise. 400 million owned guns, 50,000 deat

I don’t know what the solution is, but introducing mass surveillance of ALL users on their own devices hurts the general population - do you think it will solve the problem?
442.
by dwedge 7mo ago
The general public is being told they are faced with a crisis. This has been a problem for at least a decade, yet suddenly it's at the forefront and conveniently ties into ID verification for everyone to use general purpose computing.

Maybe I'm just getting old and cynical but, while I think current social media is bad for children, I'm very suspicious of the current international agreement that it's time to take action, especially with all the ID verifica

Can you give me an example where this is a problem? If someone can create a CNAME they can create a TXT (ignoring the possibility of an API being restricted to just one). Without CNAME redirect I wouldn't be able to automatically renew

> don't expect it to automatically set up your webserver to use the certificates it obtains. This makes me so happy. Acme and certbot trying to do this is annoying, Caddy trying to get certs by default is annoying. I ended up on a m

I've been tempted by this because I self host everything else, but "adding an entry to postgres instead of using namecheap gui" is overkill, just use a DNS with an API. Last few days I've been migrating everything to lua

Of course it had to mention Claude and Rust haha. That aside, I enjoyed this read and it's such a niche thing that there is almost no way they'll step on the toes of another resident wanting to do the same thing

The link in the comments crap is to get people to click the comment section, this engaging with the post and boosting their reputation with the algorithm. Whenever I saw an "in the comments" I immediately lose respect for the writ

I made sure to include the word correctly in the reply. Mox mailserver tells you exactly what to do. I think mailcow does as well. A lot of people don't do it and then tell others that selfhosting email with good deliverability is impo
