Is the implication here that if a company collects your email and send you a message, that’s spam and not considering your privacy? I’m genuinely curious - I run a SaaS and have spent way too much time ensuring privacy and refusing the use

The post ends with the term “fishpilled”, which I have never heard before and cannot find a definition for. Anyone have a definition?

You quoted the wrong part if you’re after the dismissiveness. Declaring someone’s argument is in “bad faith” is unimpeachable. You can counter “no, I genuinely believe this” - but that’s just more bad faith argument! It’s an iron-jawed and

I suppose this would be a very neat usage of Zero-Knowledge Proofs. If I can prove User is over 18 to App, without giving away who User is to App - that seems quite valuable. An "Ali Baba cave" for identity. ( https://pa

I think it's a bit more complex than that. If you genuinely believe that society is a zero-sum-game, where any winner comes at the expense of some loser somewhere, then ultra-successful people must make you sick. You can hear a few whi

Hah I remember my Palm Treo so fondly. 2008 was such exciting times. I was a Jr. SysAdmin and you just couldn't be cooler than some slick PHP/MySQL/jQuery work. The Honda Civic SI of all cars had the coolest motor around and

We’re working on that, absolutely. The idea behind the KubeSail Platform is that businesses (or open source developers) can sell a fully loaded, pre-configured “box” that runs their software directly to their customers. PhotoStructure is on

Hi! Thanks for your feedback! 1. We sell both hardware and software, although our software works with almost any computer that runs Linux - it doesn't require our hardware and can run on anything that can run Kubernetes. Obviously, thi

No need to apologize, I appreciate the feedback! I tweak our little initial landing page pitch lines all the time, and I feel like the current state is pretty bad. I'll see if I can't improve it :)

Heh, maybe _thats_ why we don't have a 300M valuation! I shouldn't comment on HN while deploys go out . Fix going out currently, thank you!

Amazingly, my startup (KubeSail.com YCS19) has similar revenue, has raised 500x less, and we've been told point blank that "nobody wants to invest in a hardware company", or "yes, but what's the path to 100B".

There was a major release of PHP8 2 months ago. To add to that - JavaScript was invented in 1995. PHP, "so far back in the past", was invented in 1994. It's only regression in the exact language and framework you wanted to u

I am a Tesla owner, and yes, I regret the purchase of FSD. I did and still do consider it a bit of an investment in a future I'd like to see, and I'm quite happy I also _actually invested_ in Tesla when I bought my model 3, but ov

I'm not trying to defend self driving to Tesla here, like, at all , but I don't agree with this statement. Evolution has gifted us with a phenomenal device, the brain, but evolution is extremely cautious and conservative. There i

Agreed - and this is exactly why the concept of "positive" and "negative" rights exists. If no one is providing you with free access to information, free of charge, that is not an acceptable thing to get violent over.

Is the implication of your comment that the solution is for everyone to just stop committing crimes ? I'm not sure how realistic that is.

Absolutely. But if Darwin had spent his life drawing pictures and showing them to no one - and if his entire generation did the same - we would not live in the modern world.

I hear that metric a lot - dollars per entertainment-hour. It's an interesting metric - but it's also important to remember the 1.5 hour Marvel film almost certainly took more human hours in the input side than virtually any video

Why doesn't that sound great? Why shouldn't everyone be able to have places for themselves? This is more or less the entire premise of private property. This argument goes right to its ultimate logical conclusions so fast its unbe

You might try Red kale, strip out the stems and chop finely, mix with blood orange, blueberries, avocado and loads of nuts (I do chopped & toasted walnuts and pecans). Little olive oil, salt and vinegar? Mmmm! Kale is awesome because it

It used to be microk8s by a long shot, but starting about 6 to 12 months ago k3s has leaped head in terms of simplicity and memory/cpu usage. k3s runs great now on a system with as little as 1 or 2gb or RAM.
