Going on a tangent here but why s3? Why not avoid vendor lock in and just serve static files? My setup is to post blobs over a small rest api which balances storage load over all the file servers using nginx. It responds with the serverSubd

Exactly. And a market in general wouldn't ever create those programs themselves if they don't provide any direct or indirect profits. So these would be state directed. I am not sure we have any disagreement anywhere. :)

Yes. But not from the same group of people over and over again. At least not in the laissez faire style systems where the market would stop assuming uniform risk and increase insurance rates to the expected values based on the probabilities

Very well put. I have tried to argue the same point here and on reddit in past. The only real argument against I get is from the privacy perspective. That people tend to use alternative youtube clients or other such hacks to be able to cons

Child selectors I can understand. But won't media queries mostly be limited to containers and thus used sparsely and those cases would warrant having a class of their own even if one decides that named classes for each element is a has

Can't this be solved by creating small css classes for your colour palette like font-color-primary, background-color-warn, etc? The benefit being that anyone who needs to include these only needs to think about the context and have con

Hetzner is great and I love it and use it for all my dev needs. But there availability is in limited zones and for production I do suffer from the latency. Haven't found any other provider which costs anywhere near the same(every compa

I love Hetzner and keep a couple of machines running for prototypes and running scripts. But I can't use it for production or as my primary remote development environment because for someone in India the latency is way too high. I real

I feel you. Even though I am more okay with the transience of the feeds. I have a similar setup but running on my cloud VM and using my custom scripts and apps. I have built a CLI client but not gotten around to mobile apps yet. Hope to fin

I appreciate the sentiment of not wanting to give into vendor lock-in for convenience but why manually download podcasts and go through the whole process when you can use RSS and ask podcasters to keep supporting RSS feeds? You get good erg

Been away from linux GUI systems for some time but isn't that resolved now with ozone in chromium which brings wayland support. I remember using electron beta with ozone and building vscode with it for proper wayland support. It worked

Ah. I misinterpreted this thinking the user password would be used but in this case having a separate password which user would have to reenter erratically. I am not in security but think that XSS might be a concern here with something so s

I am not sure how would that prevent them having access to the key and subsequently the data? Is there any platform which implements what you are suggesting and prevents the platform access to the data on a web application? Genuinely asking

Everyone talking about not having E2EE in messenger, am I missing something? How would one implement E2EE on a web application? How would the key sharing work on such a transient platform?

What's being suggested here is that most vendors would only offer networked solutions and you wouldn't have enough options to exercise your choice.

But that's the thing, if it took the whole string it would be fine, it extracted the exact right substring. There for 5 others in the same file. None I would have been able to distinguish from each other without context.
