A heavily-customised setup is very comfortable. It's so comfortable that it acts as an impediment to change, since some types of change are uncomfortable. This can feel like friction to me. When I remove customisation, I am more "

I'm not the author, but I recently gave up on Firefox, sadly. Since I needed to keep around a Chromium anyway, and I already am forced to use one for work, it became simpler to just use solely use a Chromium. In the process I dropped s

There's clearly opportunity for a GitHub replacement that can operate reliably at scale. I support Forgejo and Codeberg, but it's not clear that its architecture can scale to GitHub levels. Microsoft subsidises a lot of OSS develo

+1. Multi-cloud is typically done for vendor independence. But Github don't have that rationale.

Is this something Putin specifically wanted, or just a general "Putin wants a weaker USA, and this action results in a weaker USA"?

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47868736 helps me understand that there's a sliver of behaviour that happens to be global, and this thus allows fingerprinting. If so, cool!

I'm a "Linux I. 2nd hand ThinkPad" type of person, but have recently admired my [first] MacBook Air. Does a Framework Laptop bridge the gap somewhat?

I didn't suggest cost-first. You suppose what happens if the OpenSSH maintainers considered the cost when implementing those algorithms? Perhaps they did, but decided the benefits were worth it.

by farfatched 6mo ago
I'm not familiar with their stance, but bear in mind the costs of introducing new key type on the ecosystem, and on maintenance of SSH implementations.

"X rewires the brain" posts feel a bit like "water is wet". I expect many major and even minor life events rewire the brain. Isn't "rewiring" the process of learning and changing thoughts/behaviours?

It's not the data hoarding that reminds me of the old Internet. It's one person's curated collection. It's it being made available for the sake of it. It's novel, unexpected. a gift.
