Licensing, hosting and privacy aside. IRC not having built-in chat history is actually a wonderful feature. The Discord communities I’ve experienced are a mess of dozens of topic driven channels each with long backscroll and various pins t

Running mail is complex, and maybe it’s not the best use of your time personally. But please stop dissuading engineers from attempting to run their own mail infrastructure if desired. More people getting familiar with how reliable email sy

It’s interesting too because web3 repurposes existing internet and compute resources to build a more sophisticated network, similar to how phone networks were repurposed back in the early internet for connectivity.

These concerns are common across virtually any internet facing service. Yes, if you choose to run a service it will need to be maintained, and occasional issues will come up.

The idea of having a computers integrated with the home seems great, but to me the voice interface is awkward at best. I’d much rather have a uniform interface for controlling house devices via their APIs as wall mounted touchscreens (conne

I’m starting to think that “don’t self host” messages like this are coming from people with incentives to steer people towards paid mail hosting. A big reason it’s getting harder to self host is because so few people do.

It can be a number of things, but often times it's the thermal cycle and wear on the components. After letting devices (especially that rarely do this) cool, and then bringing them back up to temperature some percentage of components m

Is PaaS considered easier because platform operations are handled by a different group of people?

You are right, v6 is mostly a new protocol. But it's been been advertised as an updated version. It just contains essentially 100% breaking changes.

by emptybottle 5y ago
My concern is that v4 may never be decommissioned. Sure, v6 could become predominant, but fundamentally there being two separate protocols running in parallel is a failed migration. On a much smaller scale it's analogous to migrating

I think it could be argued that the flaws in IPv6 are significant enough to result in an scenario where IPv4 is never actually retired and therefore IPv6 is never fully adopted. Its been decades, but still IPv6 is deployed (at best) as a pa

All I can see are the open high voltage terminals about 2 feet off the ground. That seems really dangerous, especially if there were ever curious children around.

The most straightforward thing you can do is pick up a cheap TV antenna and a basic battery powered radio. Over the air TV is actually really good now. The switch to digital brought full HD over the air. And local FM/AM radio will bro

On the other hand try calling "AWS" in the same scenario. My money is on sloshed guy coming back with the faster response.

They are beautiful guitars, but I'd argue that the set neck design along with the headstock shape that is prone to snapping off if the guitar tips over isn't great for longevity.

by emptybottle 5y ago
I think this could be generalized to say that bolt-on necks are more robust than set necks in terms of maintenance over time. I do tend to agree with that, because over time the tension from the strings will pull up on a neck and make the g

Running your own data center is on the far other end of the spectrum. There are numerous options between solely using AWS and building a data center.

by emptybottle 5y ago
You don’t need to build your own data center to host outside AWS. You can fully manage your hardware and software fleet while still paying a host to provide data center service, and networking too.

It's apples to oranges in my opinion, since it's a comparison between 50" and 150" at the same resolution. What advantage the TV may have in pixel sharpness a good projector more than makes up for in size and field of v
