Just to clarify, HN is written in Arc, a Lisp variant, and (purely incidentally) runs on FreeBSD. As the sibling replier noted, SAFE appears to be hosting-provider-specific. Also, I'm definitely not OP, but since I'm here, and jus

For what it's worth, my own desire to see if I can help out somehow has definitely only increased over the past few months as I've noticed the messages at the tops of threads about pagination. I don't have any particular sk

FWIW, after getting exactly the same output from `delv` locally, I noted that $ dig +short slack.com @4.2.2.1 15.206.34.128 and I take this to mean that, despite failing DNSSEC, Level 3 is yielding an A record - and that the major

I was just thinking about this myself. It would be so awesome to add something like OAuth2! But then I realized, this would break the subtle cohesion of the current model. Everyone has to specifically come back to news.yc to comment. Everyo

I personally hate the color banding you get from things like big drop shadow radiuses in webpages. Look at them from juuust the wrong angle and... war flashbacks to Windows 3.1 in 256 colors. I'm not sure if newer tech has better vie

Was this exactly at midnight, as in 12:00? It's possible auto wakeup was enabled in the BIOS, with the wake time set to the default of 00:00. Alternatively, if it was a different time, perhaps *that* was the default, or maybe the val

(Computer that's always on + $2 Wi-Fi dongle (or a slightly more expensive one with an actual antenna, if required) + network namespace-specific alternate route = scriptable scheduled reboot. Hm, or you could just use a Raspberry Pi.

I just tried googling "mitmproxy chromecast" and found a bit of a rabbithole of hacks and tweaks that can be done to Chromecasts to alter their behavior in ways they were definitely not intended for :) I expect there are probably

FWIW/out of curiosity, I just tried poking the emulator that comes with Android Studio, and found an option (under "advanced settings") to route the emulated front or back camera to "Webcam0". This is out of the box

It's honestly cool when "origin story" just doesn't do it justice and you have to pull out "bootstrap story" instead :) I got into a few situations like this myself, but none exactly this crazy :) How'd yo

You could try disabling Smooth Scrolling in chrome://flags then scrolling using the arrow keys. If that works, there's tons of "better" smooth-scrolling bits of JS gunk out there that try and trap the browser scroll

Just out of curiosity... Out of all the places where this impossible combination is somehow the case... do you know of any that have attractive rent options and cheap inbound flights? xD

Yep, 3GB RAM, but Chrome eats most of that and it swaps pretty much the entire time (yup, it has a 1GB swap partition, the poor flash)... and the CPU is a 32-bit Snapdragon 800 with 4 (symmetrical) cores at 2.2GHz. FWIW, I feel it. https

No, I went I'm-Feeling-Lucky APK Fishing™ on the releases tab and fed my phone whatever that was. Which suggests the build process is a bit broken.

An excellent question. It seems interesting, and like it has a reasonable social consensus, but I do wonder if everyone'll just be going hunting for LTSB 5-10 years from now. ...Maybe treat it like Existential Arch Linux? (Where "

Echoing the sibling comment, I knew Honey was WAY -too-good-to-be-true from the seemingly infinite marketing resources being poured into it - but I had no idea it was a botnet (?!). Further insight highly appreciated!
