   Rust is your "last language". It's good for writing Python native modules, PostgreSQL native modules, compiling to WASM, all using the same libraries you love and know already. That is a big deal for me.

   That is a mistake by Mozilla IMO. They could've done better. But VPN is just a beginning, there are many other opportunities. Like recently-launched containerized JS playground. Or hosted email. Or Nextcloud-like product in general. Ma

   They've established their name and reputation, now they need to build on top of that. Like Mozilla and their VPN product, Signal can do a similar thing, keeping the Signal free.

   I didn't try it out, maybe you're right. I know how to deploy my stuff via systemd, install Rust/cargo/Elm/Python/Node/GHC/libopencv/Nix/whatever, link static libs and so on. And when I&#x27

   For those who need this I'd recommend Tailscale and their MagicDNS. You'll get access to this device for free from anywhere, with a working DNS generated for you, and only from devices that were allowed to.

   It's actually a great idea in some ways to use a phone instead of a Raspberry Pi, since it has a battery in case your electricity goes unstable, you can add LTE as a backup internet, and it has a screen to bootstrap it without an exter

   Please read my message again. I'm talking about protests in cities like Berlin, where nobody is repressed.

    Please read my message again: I'm talking about anti-war protests *outside* Russia, which are safe and should (in normal societies) produce many more attendees.

    It's a common misconception to think it's Putin's war and not Russians'. There are many people who fled Russia in European cities like Berlin. How many anti-war protests conducted by Russians were there?

    Not sure if Postgres has it, but last time I was using TimescaleDB I've written my own functions in Rust and it wasn't hard at all. I've heard it became even easier recently with PL/Rust https://news.ycombinat

    Man, it's 2023 and Elm is still the best thing to use for one-man SPA apps. Unfortunately, the author is right and it's Elm-or-nothing most of the time, no real coexistence of Elm components with TS/JS ones. That adds to the

    Or, viewed differently, additional help to Ukraine now will prevent some of those later problems too.

    Yes but I want to replace the lamps with the ones I make. Why doesn't the Government pay me if I do so?

    I guess their UX for a simple cron-like use-case. I remember trying to set it up and it wasn't a great experience. Just trying to see if others agree or not.

    I love systemd for everything except its cron replacement, somehow it's a real mess. Yet I desperately want something more modern to play with journald well. Any advice?

    I am now serving in Ukrainian army and have to say something like this might be tempting in theory: no requirements being top performance, no need for camera etc The sad reality is that windows and x86 are a requirement due to a few specifi

    Hot take: migrations are useless In modern world of SAASes and connectivity, you use multiple "databases" and such (queues, identity providers) anyways, and the world got connected enough to not need to have a local db most of the

    You didn’t address the second point: why after such a long time (years?) can’t I still buy it, even rebranded?

    by k_bx 5y ago

    I am puzzled why didn’t they lunch their own VPN to the world and instead got a rebranded one and it’s still restricted only to few countries. To me that’s another proof they’re just not great at operating.
